  1. Combining the recent practice notes paints a pretty negative picture of the O-line. * Still struggling with penalties, even with Cam Williams gone * Still can't run inside and has to lean on OZ as a crutch * Still getting stonewalled in red zone situations All the same weaknesses from last year, with much less experience and depth at the tackle positions. This is not where the OL should be heading into year 5.

  4. I was told I was a pessimist and a doomer for worrying about Cojoe's injury and our O-line depth. Surprise surprise, Burton is worried as well. And LOL at the notion that the Doak Walker Award watch list means anything. Le'Veon Moss and Reuben Owens are on it as well, I guess that means A&M has a stacked RB room? https://ncfaa.org/awards/doak-walker-award

  7. Josh Pate just left 247Sports for On3. Probably the death knell for the former.
  8. Broughton decided to decapitate Pavia for no reason at all to negate that pick-six. It was entirely self-inflicted on our part.
  9. Maybe their plan is to get our entire secondary tossed on targeting calls
  10. Was curious about this, so I had to look up our highest preseason rankings from the DKR days. 1964 - coming off national title, we were ranked #4 behind Mississippi, blOU and Dick Butkus' Illinois. All three of them lost early and underwhelmed that year. We were definitely under-ranked and probably should have been preseason #1. 1970 - coming off national title #2, we were ranked #2 behind Ohio State (who won in '68 and nearly again in '69 before Michigan stunned them at the end of the season). Both Texas and tOSU had undefeated regular seasons, we jumped ahead of Ohio State to #1 in the middle of the year for some reason. 1971 - coming off national title #3, we were ranked #3 behind Notre Dame and Nebraska. Can't complain given that Nebraska went full juggernaut that season.
  11. Scott Dochterman: Who’s overranked and underrated in the top 25?
  12. Mohammed Siraj just bowled the spell of a lifetime to win India the fifth Test match and draw the series against England.
  13. Devastating loss. Offensive tackle was already one of our weakest position groups in terms of depth. Lack of elite options at RB and the current state of the O-line just makes Manning's job harder.

  16. Mido is the worst offender in this department
  17. Give me a classic World Timer over a GMT complication any day.
  18. As if stealing the tune to Goodbye my Coney Island Baby was so much more noble 🙄
  19. The U-boat steel with tegimented surface treatment Sinn uses is legit. Borderline impossible to scratch. Only Damasko surpasses it with their ice-hardened steel.
  20. Saving Private Ryan used a lot of shaky cam and came out earlier.
