  1. Past hour
  2. What about the defensive line? Really want to delve into that $4 million and above bottleneck?
  3. “It could have been worse: Liverpool 25/26”
  4. Interesting, could this be our first case of NIL making jumping the NFL at the first opportunity no longer a priority? Not getting my hopes up, but I think he would have participated in senior day if he already decided to make the leap.
  5. If he’s being intellectually honest…. The aggys are closer to 11 than 3 despite their record. They played an easy ass sec schedule and lost to the only team they played with a pulse.
  6. Your premise is wrong because we aren't being treated as a 2-loss team. We are being treated as a 3-loss team with a top 10 SOS. Our SOR is stronger than our ranking. It's insane that we are ranked below our SOR with the wins that we have.
  7. Today: Virginia @ Vandy Kentucky @ MIami Auburn @ Syracuse Georgia @ FSU NCST @ OU GT @ aggy Tenn @ Stanford Tomorrow: UNC @ Texas Florida @ VT South Carolina @ Louisville Pitt @ MSST Arky @ SMU Clemson @ Bama LSU @ Duke ND @ Ole Miss Cal @ Missouri
  8. The people that listen to Josh Pate are the same morons who think SEC shorts are funny
  9. I know these are going away next year, but ...
  10. Seems like a dumb use of NIL money for us. We have much bigger needs than another HS WR.
  11. Going shopping with whatever we had earmarked for Anderson perhaps?
  12. Happy for Benny Blanco
  13. I bet Pavia would piss on a spark plug, if he thought it would help.
  14. Wish someone would hate those cans.
  15. It's hard to trapdoor someone's brother after a year. So the family is going to expect you to pay both for 3-4 years.
  16. That was an almost disaster without Chiesa.
  17. They basically do with the Rivals/UA/etc. camps, SPARQ scores, and all the other shit
  18. None of this can be “proven or disproven” but there are a few pieces of evidence and facts. Hypothetical: Texas played and convincingly beat a middling G5 or bad P4 team in week one instead of losing to OSU. Let’s use . . . 7-5 CUSA LaTech as a stand-in. - FACT: Texas is the lone three loss team in the top 15 of these rankings. Functionally, they are being treated like a two loss team. - FACT: Bama, OU, ND, Miami, Vandy are all jostling as two loss teams for a spot. That’s Texas’ current competition as a three loss team. - FACT: A two loss team or three loss Texas needs to be ranked 10 or higher to get in. The last two slots are going to be G5/ACC champ or G5. - FACT: The committee has no issue looking beyond H2H for these rankings, although it’s not guaranteed they will. - Justified conjecture: The committee is not going to give the SEC 6/12 slots in the CFP absent an extremely odd and compelling circumstance. Texas is in a spot with UGA, OM, Bama, OU, A&M, and Vandy and two are getting left out. Less justified conjecture: think the committee looks barely considers OOO wins against inferior comp. A loss will hurt but winning certainly gives you no credit. So let’s presume an identical record and a 42-10 win over LaTech in place of the tOSU loss. In fact, some teams have pretty compelling cases to still be ahead of Texas right now. - Bama finished above Texas in the SEC standings. The record against common opponents is identical (2-1) and Bama’s win over UGA is the strongest. ‘Bama’s loss to FSU came week zero and not midseason. FSU slumped but they had a talented roster, and UT played LaTech that week. It is very easy to give them the nod based on conference standings. - OU has a weaker case but they still have one. They certainly get to point to an early W against Michigan as more valuable than a win against LaTech. They have no loss against an unranked team. They have a road win against Bama as strong as Texas’ versus A&M. Texas has the Vandy win and the H2H. This is a hypothetical, maybe the H2H carries the day, maybe it doesn’t. It’s in no way “proven” either way. - Vandy: Texas would for sure be above Vandy. But Texas is already above Vandy. Scheduling LaTech gets you nothing. -ND: You say a 10-2 Texas with a loss to Florida and win vs G5 is ranked above ND. I say: if it comes down to ND vs. a sixth SEC team, the smart money bets ND. The case is not near as clear-cut as people are making it out to be. It basically hinges on the committee choosing to reward H2H vs OU abd that is not at all a sure proposition.
  19. I think the defense can be better in 2026. Phillips, Littleton, and Jackson all exceeded expectations. I have little doubt that those three will be sophomores in the mold of Hill and Simmons. Smith doesn't have the pass rushing skills of Hill, but I think it's possible he could be an improvement in coverage. As long as we retain several DTs and they develop along a similar trajectory as Collins and Broughton, I think we'll be salty.
  20. 7 minutes of injury time and the ball will be in play for about 45 seconds.
