  1. Was not the case this year. It's a future scheduling rule. We could have played Rice instead of OSU this year. On future P4 game, I unfortunately agree. We should play mid-tier and lower. Teams that might be able to show us things to work on, but not legitimate threats to beat us, even if we shit the bed. No reason to risk a loss when the committee clearly doesn't care. We should also play Rice every year with home games in Reliant for regular home games in Houston. Third game should be a UT system school rotation. Virtually guaranteed 3-0 non conference lets you drop up to 2 SEC games and still go to the playoffs virtually every time.
  2. Which is effectively the same thing, because If Texas played Rice instead of OSU, we'd only have 2 losses and be a lock, likely hosting a game. Look at the pathetic non-conference schedules for top seeds Indiana and Ole Miss. The playoff committee can say whatever they want about schedule strength, their actions show they only care about the number of wins and losses. They don't give a shit about who the wins and losses are against. I don't like it either, but it is reality.
  3. Non-conference schedule going forward should have Rice every year, with any Houston games at Reliant to give us regular games in Houston.
  4. Yep. Headline is absolutely correct. "As things stand, IU football is right to avoid Power 4 teams in non-conference schedule" Indiana 2025 non conference games Old Dominion, Kennesaw State, Indiana State None of those games should count as wins for tournament consideration, but the committee is rewarding them with #2. Indiana gets the message loud and clear. They cancelled UVA for 2027 and 2028 and replaced them with Kennesaw State and Austin Peay.

  6. Their fans are as soft as their schedule and Elko's belly.
  7. Some really good robots vacuum cyber monday deals. https://gizmodo.com/black-friday-is-dropping-roborocks-vacuum-prices-by-up-to-53-as-low-as-199-2000686124 https://vacuumwars.com/amazon-black-friday-2025-deals-robot-vacuums/ @Celery Man, @MonkeyDoughnut, @deft, @bigcigar, @TexPx, @thunderlounge, @Nonbryan, Y'all still happy with your Roborocks? @bluto Did yours get any better with settings changes? @C-Man How do you and your neighbors like your Dreame? Seeing lots of online recommendations for the Mova P10 Ultra too. Anyone have experience with Mova?
  8. At this point, it's really obvious it's on purpose and condoned by SEC leadership. It's not a competence problem, it's corruption.
  9. aggy post game call in said Elko announced in press conference he intended to go for that, but the players didn't snap it and put ball in play. Your point remains though, the crowd disrupted it either way.
  10. Arch looks incredible for long stretches, despite consistent, immediate QB pressure. We need a major OL overhaul. Coaches and players.
  11. I cannot disagree with this post enough. As a college football fan, I want to see the top teams play each other in OOC as often as possible. That only happens if marquee teams are incentivized to play each other. If a close loss to the defending national champs in OOC knocks you out, only a fool would keep scheduling that type of game.
  12. Elko called stuff the staff wasn't prepared for, despite having 2 weeks to prepare. They may have prepared too early and then gone home.
  13. Dude. Just enjoy the post game call in schadenfreude.
  14. They don't want to take any more callers.
  15. They are a university and football program that deserve no respect, so they constantly look to manufacture disrespect from indifference.
  16. Listener Call-In: (979) 693-1150
  17. "It's not the end of the world. I wanted it more than anything."
  18. aggy call in show is good clean fun. Guy complains about Elko's extension, derails it until the next commercial break. Another guy says something about Elko's weight that gets cut off. Now, Marcel threw for more yards. He threw for a higher completion percentage.
  19. They would have had a much better shot in College Station. We are much better at home. Instead, they were petty, insisted on having the first SEC matchup at home, and wasted home field advantage against a Texas team they wouldn't have beaten on any field. I love this for them.
  20. McElroy is mostly mad, because he knows those Texas fans are right.
  21. Second half Wisner and Arch had rushing the field covered.
  22. aggy QB melting down in the clutch is one their most sacred traditions.
  23. The holding is fucking unreal. Just blatant and constant.
  24. made a couple of changes
  25. Actual rule is you can hold players in white some games and orange ones in the others.
