  1. Past hour
  2. And Texas chose their path. Y'all gloat about it constantly. The SEC deliberately games the system and the collusive media falsely raises the floor of the conference so everyone can say they beat more 'top 25 ranked teams.' It's self perpetuating. Then the top teams aren't scheduled against each other. Own it and STFU...but you can't. We're Texas...and we still fucked up.
  3. And now we see why that other Admiral that was previously in charge of this shit show resigned. He knew what was coming down the pike and said, yeah, I'm not committing war crimes for you just so you can lay it all at my feet later. Obviously Bradley was too fucking stupid to take a hint.
  4. We've taken some G5 kids under Sark, Trey Moore came from UTSA. We took players from Wyoming and San Jose State (Neyor and Jayvion Cole), although neither of them worked out. Took a LB from James Madison early in Sark's tenure, and our current backup QB came from Troy and our current kicker from Texas State.
  5. The committee can easily fix this by ranking Texas above OU, due to our recent performance against the previously ranked # 3 team and OU's dogshit performance against an unranked LSU. The nail in the coffin should be our pasting of OU. That is how they can save face. OU also has some issue with the wr room.
  6. I suspect part of the problem is he is a high profile, high earning father who has an ex wife who programmed the kids cell phone to speed dial CPS. It takes two crappy parents to ruin a kid.
  7. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States–Taliban_deal Negotiated for the U.S. by Zalmay Khalilzad for the first Trump administration, the negotiations for the agreement did not involve the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, the Afghan government at the time.[4] The deal, which also had secret annexes, was one of the critical events that caused the collapse of the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF). Insurgent attacks against the Afghan security forces surged in the aftermath of the deal, however, with thousands killed. Regardless, withdrawals per the agreement continued. By January 2021, just 2,500 U.S. troops remained in the country, and NATO forces fully evacuated by the end of that summer. The U.S. completed its full evacuation on August 30, 2021, as the Taliban took control of the country by force. Trump, the ultimate deal master, gave the Taliban everything while not involving any of the Afghan folks who weren't Taliban that we'd been working with for years. The Taliban then, of course, waltz in, killed a bunch of people, and took over everything. However, in the aftermath of the agreement, the U.S. stopped supporting the Afghan military in its offensive operations, forcing it to take mostly defensive positions around the country. According to the agreement, U.S. military aircraft could not attack Taliban groups waiting more than 500 meters away, giving the Taliban an edge in targeting Afghan military units.[citation needed] The agreement also exacerbated the decline in morale of the Afghan army and police, making them more open to accepting bargains with the Taliban. Due to a lack of information and secret annexes in the agreement, that had not been shared even with the then Afghan government, the Taliban were able to spread propaganda and disinformation about the agreement, including convincing local police and military units that the U.S. had handed over territories to the Taliban and that they should abandon their positions.[51] In the 45 days after the agreement (between March 1 and April 15, 2020), the Taliban conducted more than 4,500 attacks in Afghanistan, an increase of more than 70% compared to the same period in the previous year. So basically, Trump completely abandoned our allies in Afghanistan like this shooter. He allowed the Taliban to go hog wild and kept American forces from fighting back. He pulled the large majority of our forces out which essentially handed the entire country over to the Taliban. The Taliban kills swathes of Afghan military forces and people from the government while we sit and twiddle our fingers. Those guys, predictably, then say fuck this shit and bail or start switching sides. Then Biden got stuck with the mess. By the time Biden took office there were hardly any American troops left, the Afghan forces were in complete disarray, and the damage had already been done. At that point there was nothing to do except pull the few remaining troops out and leave all the equipment Trump didn't bother to tell the Pentagon to remove beforehand. So the Taliban got to keep a bunch of the equipment we abandoned. Which is where you get videos like this: Art of the Deal, baby! We get nothing and our enemies get everything! Oh, and the poor, stupid idiots that thought we were actually going to have their backs and who believed our bullshit got ruthlessly murdered. Ah well, thems the breaks!
  8. No other leagues are permitted. At the end of the regular season, the SEC starts a 16-team tournament to determine the national champion. Other teams and other leagues play in lesser bowls for consolation prizes.
  9. If they want money for each win, they send: 1. GA 2. Ole Miss 3. Aggie 4. Texas 5. Bama 6. OU 7. Vandy If you go by best chance of winning it putting aside the tie breakers like head to head matchups, etc. I'll even accept Bama at 4 and Texas at 5. IMHO.
  10. When I first heard about this, I figured it was more of a "fell" than "jumped". We've seen those news articles of people getting drunk at a party, trying to take a selfie while up on the balcony railing, and slipping and falling over. There was that hot girl sticking her head out of a car window and hitting her head on a pole during a livestream and dying. There was that porn star who was fucking two guys on a balcony on camera and went over the side. People who take selfies along cliff edges and fall. It happens. Hell, sometimes it's dumbasses who think they can jump into a pool below. I'm sure they have the girl's phone. They might also be dismissing foul play because something on that phone shows what really happened.
  11. Thought we finished fifth due to h2h wins against Vandy and OU? Also, how could Ou possibly have a stronger SOS than Texas if they played a Div 2 school?
  12. It’s worth it to go. Chevy is getting up there (think he’s 82) and he’s slowing down quite a bit. His wife was on stage with him when he did the Q&A when I went two years ago. He did just fall on the stage in Buffalo so he still may have had some lingering issues from that. I didn’t ask a question because the only thing I would've asked him is did you get being so ornery with people from your grandfather? Pretty sure he would’ve flipped me the bird and told me to get out if I brought up the most hated man in the history of the US Navy.
  13. Today
  14. Ok. Who else? Total teams from other leagues? What’s your format?
  15. That’s why I asked the question the way I did because the Ohio St game doesn’t affect your place in the SEC standings - but the Florida loss does. Georgia, Ole Miss, and Aggy all have fewer losses OU and Bama are the same as Texas No committee. No polls. Who does SEC send to the playoffs?
  16. Not that anybody cares what Loomer says any more, but I enjoy any infighting.
  17. I disagree. The most interesting thing in all of this is the fallout around scheduling. It’s an existential problem for CFB because of the disparity in SOS created by NIL.
  18. maybe you are unaware so I will explain...it would be, if the committee didn't rank solely by number of losses. since that is what they do, we have to turn their words back on them to stop them ranking solely by losses and that is to hold a mirror up to them regarding their statement about high level OOC games. We will also talk about ND and OU and SOS's for other teams that are in the 50's and 60's. aggy is out of discussion because 1 loss v 3 loss is too much to overcome for morons who only consider the loss column.
  19. Not sure that Aidan would get along well with our new commit, Kaden.
  20. You're winning in that scenario, sir. 1941 cracks me up.
  21. I agree. THAT should be the talking point. Not the Ohio St loss.
  22. we beat aggy SOS 6 v 30 game over...
  23. Riddle me this: If there were no committee and playoff participants were sent as representatives from their conferences, would the SEC send Texas? For this discussion, poll don’t matter - just the conference representatives - and you get to pick your format - 12 teams or 16 - byes or no byes - home games or neutral - I don’t care All I want to know is the number of reps from each conference and wether or not the SEC would send Texas. If the answer is yes, then make that your argument and forget about the Ohio St loss and all the whining about not playing those games anymore and instead focus on projecting your answer to this year’s playoffs and tell me which SEC team Texas should bump.
