  1. The UBL speech was in front of a hallway, at the White House I’m assuming. That gif is in the press room and I think the door kicking was a joke done by Leno.
  2. As an outsider that roots y’all on, especially against OU, that’s where I’m at. I think the line is reflective of objective reasoning and the general public’s expectations, but I see a few opportunities…mostly rehashing old shit but I wanted to participate here: DKR will be an absolute madhouse, and yeah the ‘that’s every Saturday in the SEC bro’ folks may disagree but this is a once per generation event here in Austin. I’ve been there when it’s full tilt boogie time, and expect it to be 1.5x that at kick. Sark won’t be intimidated and has inside knowledge. If he doesn’t out-clever himself with a freshman QB and keeps the troops focused, the chess game should be fascinating. Hopefully he’s comfortable with risk taking on 4th/short, potential fake punts, baiting a flea flicker with Bijan, etc. Got nothing to lose and fortune favors the bold. Sanders. Huge advantage to have a flex TE like that with good hands that can play into all kinds of scenarios that offset their DL pressure. You’ve gotta mix him in unexpected places like a PA fake with Bijan or put him in as hybrid FB, and not just on 3rd down. Everyone knows they’re going to key on Bijan but your RB room is such an embarrassment of riches I hope to see some 21 personnel or diamond. Keep complex RPO plays out of your freshman QB but focus on getting the ball to proven players quickly outside of the box. Give the same basic look with a pop pass to Xavier or someone on a slant to put them in space. Defense has to have the ball bounce their way. ULM seemed to insist on running up the gut for 1-2yds a pop for half their plays though so not sure what was learned. Alabama will get theirs, so I guess your D needs to be Johnny on the spot for a lucky TO and otherwise tackle well to keep it manageable. Loved Overshown’s nose for the ball. Who knows about Ewers, my gut says that ‘settle in’ shit won’t work to start with Alabama like it did ULM. Theoretically you’ve got horses to stretch the field in both dimensions with RB, TE and WR…just hoping he can connect on a few bombs early on to make them adjust. Big time players make big time plays in big time games. Overall I’m jealous of the opportunity laid in front of you. Young players tend to let the moment get too big for them…but you’re at home, you’ve worked your whole career for this moment, and it’s time to lay it all on the table. Take it seriously as a measuring stick and maybe you surprise the nation. Rooting for y’all.
  3. Who the fuck are you and what you done with our Special Ledge Master?
  4. He already looks purple to me
  5. Of all the games this weekend…this is one of them.
  6. Dr Vincent Adultman
  7. Trump literally just stands up there and says whatever random things come to mind…Zuck was at the WH groveling to him last week, Obama so handsome, etc. People who watch that ‘rally’ and think ‘yep, that’s my guy’ are truly lost.
  8. If I were ULM I would gently recommend against continually running up the middle.
  9. Frankly I’ve gotten used to the stiff robotic buff ref overlords.
  10. These announcers are awesome. Talking about being in the edge of field goal range…from 62 fucking yards out.
  11. Holy shit!!!
  12. Suck it looks like Houston about to pull it out, this has been a great game. Not 7-3, two safeties and 21 punts great…but still entertaining.
  13. They can’t math done good neither
  14. Woulda been nice to not blow that last TO right about now.
  15. Tipped pass gives Houston ball back at the UTSA 20. Getting tight. Edit: tie game
  16. Yeah I just realized that myself.
  17. And promptly punch it in. This is awesome
  18. And Casey Casey’d a pick from the 12. First and goal NDSU
  19. Nebraska somehow managed to involve three people in fielding a kickoff. The left return guy signaled a fair catch, the right return guy walked up to muff it, and the upback finally fielded the lost ball.
  20. Better nut up on D here. Houston O showing life down into the red zone
  21. I understand some of those words
