    call me an ass, call me a troll. I don’t care. 

    This program hasn’t shown me they have been able to win more than 6 games in a regular season since 2013. To think they’re capable of doing otherwise after the past 4 seasons’ results I think is premature. 

    Long story short: consider me in the wait and see crowd.

    sorry @ShaggyBevo RIP and @lemonandaturd, I'll just be busy being right...

  2. Every year I tell myself "well the good news is that it can't be any worse than last year."

    Tom just lost to a program in turmoil against a guy who's never been a head coach in his career.

    Pack it up, it's over. Texas football is dead as long as this fraud is in charge.

    Who coined the phrase "pull a Texas"?  Never heard it until now.  Probably a bunch of jizz swilling folks from east of here.  

    Or a frustrated fan who's watched the team fail to win more than 6 games in a season for a full graduating class.

    You have to admit, we've laid some unbelievably big eggs in the past 5 years.

    We're 2-11 vs. non-con P5 opponents in the last 5 years.  The two wins are Missouri in last year's Texas bowl, and 4-8 Notre Dame from 2016... Are y'all not sick of buying into the meritless hype every single August only to be let down?

    I mean, I picked them to win, but jeezuz.  For once play like you're supposed to Texas.

  4. Horns - 23

    Terps - 19

    Something stinks to high heaven about the situation Maryland is in currently.  Part of me thinks they're going to come out playing hard, and we're going to "pull a Texas" as we've done so many times in this decade (particularly because that phrase didn't exist until this decade).  However, there's just so much turmoil, Texas wins despite committing three turnovers in the rain, 2 of which will be in the redzone.

    Just like going into 2015, we'll go into the season knowing we should've fired the offensive coordinator, but we kept him because of "growing in the system," "culture," "last year's underclassmen being more experienced" or whatever other buzzwords we use to make us feel better about our team sucking for a decade.

    So sick of the bullshit talk and just for once want to watch Texas take the field with the players caring just as much or more about the outcome than their instagram likes and twitter followers

    Honestly, without a front seven on defense, I don't see how they get past 4 wins.  I was always in the camp that I thought 7 or 8 wins would just necessarily happen for them, given the number of gimmes they have.  But if they don't have defensive tackles or linebackers, they're going to be in a world of hurt this year.

    NW St. - Win (but might be uncomfortably close)

    Clemson - L - This one's gonna hurt.

    ULM - W - But it's going to be a ballgame.  ULM has a fantastic offense.  TAMU better hope those summer practices paid off.

    Bama - L - This one's gonna hurt worse.

    Arky - L - Unless they somehow get healthy on defense, I think Chuck Norris Chad Morris's offense will put a hurting on them.

    Kentucky - L - Same as above.  KY returns a ton of starters, especially on O.

    South Carolina - L.  This one might actually hurt, too.

    Miss. State - L.  Assuming MSU doesn't take a big step back with Morehead as coach, this one could be a bloodbath.

    Auburn - L. I think you're all getting the hang of this at this point.

    Ole Miss - Who the fuck knows?  Probably a loss?  Maybe a win?  Is Matt Luke actually Meatloaf, disguising himself as a CFB coach?  Did Matt Luke secretly get a head transplant, where he transplanted on of those giant Easter Island heads onto his own body?  Scientists are racing to find the answer.

    UAB - W.  But will also depend on what A&M's depth chart looks like at this point in time.  Do they have anyone healthy remaining on defense?  How many positions can Otaro Alaka play at once?

    LSU - L.  This game will literally save Orgeron's job.

      

    I 100% agree they're going to be as bad as you say they'll be, but it's hard to see them in trouble against arky or kentucky.  aggy is by no means close to a quality program, but those programs are dogshit at the current moment.

    At the moment, looks as if LSU will be no prize this year either, but they are to aggy what Texas is to... well, I guess also aggy

  7. Damnit. This worked so well last season, so why not preseason rank us high again when we’ve done nothing to deserve it?

    Not sure how a team that is now trying to avoid its 9th consecutive season being under its regular season o/u wins (8.5 for 2018) is always given this much credit. IMO it has done nothing but go straight to the he players’ heads

     

    hell, not even the baseball team was preseason top 25 this past season, and they’re actually a program that deserves that type of benefit of the doubt

  8. That is the absolute worst and pisses me off more than anything. 

    Theres no shame in losing to a team like the Florida Gators, but at least play until the last out. Giving up like that is completely unf fucking acceptable and has no place on the diamond for the university of Texas.

  9. Damn, gotta respect the fact that we kept battling until the 27th out.

    Those Razorback fans can be some real obnoxious pricks, but damn that baseball team can play.  They're 3-0 against us with none of the games being really that close... sometimes you might just have to tip your cap and say gg.

    Hell, if we win our next few games, we'll get another shot at them. I think our team would be really fuckin fired up to play them again
