Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Nobody seriously believes that any other team in the CFP conversation would have won three of five against Ohio State, Vandy, ousux, aggy, and Georgia. If BYU were to sneak in, they would be blown out and embarrassed. Same goes for Utah, Virginia, and whichever G5 gets in. "Deserve" should not have anything to do with it. The task of the committee is to find the five best conference champions and the seven best at-large teams, using all of the information available to it. The five best conference champs will come from the P4 conferences and from one G5 conference. I don't think anyone here would disagree that Texas for most of the season was not one of the seven best at-large teams, but they clearly improved and are currently better at least six of the other teams in the CFP conversation. I don't think any of the other six teams should come from the Big XII, and the only teams outside the SEC and B1G who have any business being considered one of the seven best at-large teams are Miami and Notre Dame (in that order). We should not be rewarding teams for avoiding tough competition by granting them playoff spots.

The old adage, "you are what you emphasize," still true. The Spurs clearly do not emphasize perimeter defense. Ant Fucking Edwards! He should never be wide open! Under any fucking circumstances! At times they appear so easy to solve. The offense also suffers amnesia at least twice in the second halves of games, and completely forgets its identity. That is the most frustrating part of these games, and it almost always results in a lead being erased in a matter of minutes. If we're lucky, we regain control of the game. Eventually the top half of the league is going to figure out how to exploit this even more, and the games will take on the trajectory of what we saw tonight. Wemby hopefully can continue his maturation and in the process of being "the guy" prevent those amnesia spells. But the defensive issues are extremely worrisome. I have not seen it get better and we're approaching December. I would hate to see a team this good swept in the first round.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
If they make it in, it would be as a 10 seed, so they'd travel to #7. Texas only gets in if Tech and Georgia win. If Tech and Georgia both win, I think they'd get first round byes (Top 4 seeds). The other teams with byes would be the B1G champ and either Indiana or Oregon. #5 is probably Aggy. #6 is probably Indiana or Oregon. I bet #7 is an SEC team, probably Ole Miss.- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
Really like seeing CB getting good minutes.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
As much as I want Disney to be able to pull the strings, we have to take the committee at its word when it claims to be impervious to outside influences.- Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
This is why I've been saying we should not be pushing Sark out at this time. Inventory is at an all time low.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I don't see why UVA would want Miami in. I also wonder if ND has any friends on the committee. It's a 2 loss team with a weak schedule, but it also has been smart enough to run up the score to try to deflect attention from the fact that they started the season 0-2.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
UVA also on the committee. Shouldn't matter because UVA beats Duke and autobids in.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
And yet, as Sark correctly points out, if we'd played Syracuse instead of Ohio State, we'd be in.- Lane Kiffin to LSU?
I love this creative use of traditional Mississippi music!- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I don't see anyone on the committee who will be eager to advocate for Texas, I gotta say.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I guess Wesley Walls is gonna make a strong argument for Laneless Ole Miss to be in, then- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Utah's AD is on the committee. Does he need to abstain in some capacity?- Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC
- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Notre Dame is very good at running up the score against terrible teams. That's more or less what they've needed to do to make their case to the committee.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
He hasn't answered that yet. I think maybe they beat ousux or aggy (but not both).- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Did it project what would need to happen for Texas to sneak in? I think Bama, Tech, and UVA have to win.- a Disservice to our sport - let's up the ante - decline the bowl game
What if we only accept the least prestigious possible bowl game, so we still get the practices. A way to symbolically schedule the cupcake we should have scheduled instead of Ohio State- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Texas has already beaten three of the teams that these people want to rank ahead of Texas, and two of the losses are from ranked teams. Be honest with yourself, if Tech had played those five teams (Ohio State, Georgia, aggy, Vandy, and ousux) would it have fared better than 3-2? Try the same thought experiment with BYU, ND (we already know they can't beat aggy), and Miami. As far as any hypothetical matchup directly between Tech and Texas, feel free to disagree but you look ridiculous in the process.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Connor Stroh has been benched. I think Arch and the RBs have had decent protection since then. Unless you have Georgia's talent, I am not concerned.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Me too. In the Mayo Bowl.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Utah's OL has nothing of value to protect, and didn't look particularly impressive in Lawrence.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Florida and Georgia also recruit much better players because they are flagship programs in talent-dense states. Tech fights for scraps and needs to portal everyone else in. The blueprint for beating Texas up front is easy to imitate but hard to duplicate, and I have a hard time believing Tech would have as much success as is being suggested.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Arch doesn't need much time to make plays, but also, how would you know? There's not a single B1G or SEC team on Tech's schedule. Tech opted to schedule Oregon State, a team that can't even beat Sam Houston in Corvallis. It's safe to say, Tech's front seven has not actually been tested. - San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
