  1. Run into James at Pappas Burger and other various fooderias. Very nice guy. They looked awful this week, we should bury them. Really hoping our defense shows out.
  2. Denver fans booing the shit out of the home team today 😂
  3. Sadly, most pressures came late against the backup QB to include the 1 sack we managed all night. I mean we should be getting true pressure with the front 4 against teams like this as a sign of whether or not we’re going to be much improved on D. A number of ‘pressures’ we got against the starter led to first downs for UTSA via abandonment of containment or failure to convert pressure to a positive play.
  4. Concerning to see lack of pressure last night. On a strange side note, I doubt we see that level of QB play from most Big 12 opponents. He was outstanding. We are still missing WAY too many tackles. Fucking amazes me this has been an issue for 10 years…
  5. He’s just calling it as it is. We look like shit. Don’t get your feelings hurt on it.
  6. Good blitz scheme right there. Now need to stop their continuous pace dead off the kick.
  7. A fine adjustment, PK. Nice work. Started to dial some action up.
  8. Well, offense checked their ego and started playing UTSA like a real opponent instead of an out of conference throwaway. Let’s see if PK can do the same.
  9. Stealing corn is a felony in only one state. Suspensions for first half of next year’s game against SCLSU coming up.
  10. Today is the day Yordan Corleone settles all family business.
  11. Saying “even CDC” like he’s a bad AD is some trite bullshit at this point.
  12. Patterson will be sought after by major programs and he will leave when they come calling. Enjoy it while it lasts. I think he’s had a big hand in this but PK also has a big hand in the turnaround. When GP leaves, bummer, but so be it.
  13. If one half of good defense wasn’t enough to convince you we’re clearly Super Bowl material, then maybe this will:
  14. Love what I saw but we’ll see if we look any good when Big 12s throw it 70 times.
  15. Fuck him. When I look at batting averages and the IL and just generally observing, I’m amazed our record is what it is. Pitching is obviously this team’s bread and butter, but we can be and should be, and IMO will be, way better, and hopefully that coincides with the playoffs starting. This team is unreal. Conforto should’ve hopped on in the hopes he got a chance to be a part of the magic. What a donkey
  16. We’re 19th in Strength of Schedule. Jags may get better under new leadership, but I don’t think the Colts necessarily took any big steps forward. Running game looks much better, and if we can run and play good D, no reason not to have a sliver of optimism.
  17. OK here’s the plan: 1. Hire Bob Stoops 2. Bring Hall back to roster with zero punishment but just tell people he was punished. 3. ???? 4. Zero questions asked or accountability required. Starts Game 1.
  18. Vegas has O/U on season wins at 4.5. I don’t think we’ll blow by that number or anything but I think we’ll surprise some people. We’re going to be pretty good on defense, I think. Often that is enough to move from ‘total suck’ to ‘mediocrity.’
  19. Frost not coming through reminds me of Randolph and Mortimer Duke.
  20. Still better than anything Futureman does
  21. EDIT: Casey was out for one play, only. Thought he might’ve been hurt or something. Came right back in after one play (first play of drive) and nearly threw a pick.
  22. Yes, boosters were calling all the plays and resetting depth charts. The boosters brought in a bunch of their own recruits to watch. They even switched us over to orange water coolers and orange Gatorade.
