    This exactly what Bilbo needed to sell his snake oil. 
     

    - Perfect recipe for an upset over a “playoff team”. 

    - Achane playing with his hair on fire.

    - Weigman playing well. 

    Enough to make Evan Stewart stay is my worry.  He is the one that needs be removed from them somehow or he will be another Mike Evans that wins games for them even with a shitty offense.

  2. I’m out.  I have seen this movie before.  Every bounce, dropped pass, penalty will go A&Ms way and they will get the win over a crappy overrated LSU team.  The kind of win that may sadly swing a few recruits to them that would have gone elsewhere or maybe keep some players from portaling.  Fuck Aggy.

    So basically you get to write rules, since NIL has somehow changed the world of college football to the point that we can't make any historical comparisons, and yet you have the expertise to judge a kid in Year One based on . . . what?

    Regarding Peyton Manning:  one of the bluest of blue chips ever, an NFL HOF QB, started 8 games as a freshman, went 61.8%, 1141 yards, 11 TD, 6 INT

    Now show Peyton Mannings rookie year stats in the NFL for the Colts and their W-L record.  If Derka was the Colts GM he would have cut/traded Peyton after his rookie year and told everybody he was a bust and loser.

    It’s all NIL based. Lincoln Riley is a piece of shit as usual. I think Texas should offer every guy they like on their roster $1M and make USC figure who they want to give raises to as well. 

    I’ve said this for awhile, but outside of QB, there will be no more loaded position in the portal than WR. 

    I am cool with X leaving as I think there will be better options.  Have you heard if we have guys lined up for the WR position already?

  5. So take this for what it’s worth but I was just told by someone I trust that would know stuff like this that the ACC will dissolve in 2025.  Notre Dame will kick it all off and then the ACC will be gone.  Supposedly, FSU is having an internal fight over where to go.  The big money boosters want SEC and the coach/football program wants Big 10.

    Bijan is not replaceable. The real hope is Texas does not need to replace him next year, because the OL will take the necessary steps forward. If that happens, Texas won’t need a RB that can dodge a defender in the backfield and still get 5 yards 

    This right here exactly.  I love Bijan but he was like watching Barry Sanders behind a porous Lions O line.  I would rather have Emmitt Smith running through holes you could drive a truck through behind a dominant O line.  That is what I hope our offense turns into at some point in the next couple of years.

    Speaking if great women singers, RIP Irene Cara. I still blast Fame or Flashdance when they come on the radio.

    This is still my favorite song by her and it’s fantastic.

  8. Y’all think yesterday was bad?  If and it’s a big if, K State loses today and we end up in the championship game against TCU you will see a disparity of 20 fouls on UT to 0 on TCU.  I kid, kind of, but I guarantee the refs will do everything in their power to make sure TCU gets to the playoffs.   Too much money and conference prestige at stake.  Big 12 needs to show the world they don’t need UT or OU as they have TCU in the playoffs.

    You're an expert at misremembering what you've said so I'm going to help you out:

    Sam didn't throw for 5,000 yards. He threw for 11,000.

    Not the greatest deep ball we've ever seen but am pretty confident there aren't any JV quarterbacks starting games in the NFL.

    So you never said he was bad? Just erratic? 

     

    Is it strange these comments are making me more excited that Ewers could become good?

    @Bruh Manrunning here to hype the Miami and Arkansas wins as "top 10 wins" aged about as well as his takes on aggy. 

    Miami is 5-6 and Arkansas finished the year 6-6. 

    Yeah, well that’s 11 wins combined.  If you lose the combined part then that’s 11 wins.  Did Texas beat a 11 win team?  I didn’t think so,  Advantage Aggy.

    Brady also doesn't fucking miss.

    As a leader, your play does more than any yelling or hand clapping bullshit. 

    Best thing I saw was him running up to help Bijan up after the 25th consecutive hand off. 

    Brady is my favorite player and the GOAT but lets be fair.  He misses plenty.  He also is good for 1-2 WTF passes a game that usually lead to a pick.  He makes up for it of course but even the best screws up.  Brady always looked horrible when his O line sucked something I think Ewers is dealing with also.  Ewers messed up plenty so it’s not all on his line but some of his worst plays were when he got jailbreak pressure on him within like a second.  Maybe that is on him to read the D pre snap and know where the blitz is coming from and have a check down but some of those bad plays were not all on him.

    8-4 is ok but we used to mock Mack for 9 wins

    We can mock Sark for 9 wins a year after year 3.  It is only his second year so 8 wins is not horrific.  8 wins, destroyed OU and has hopefully 2 excellent recruiting classes is pretty good. 

    But man that fucker needs to not call slow developing pass plays behind the current line when the run was unstoppable.  That was flat idiotic.  Trying to out think the other guy when you don’t have to.

    Thanks khou cutaway for weather missed a great ending to a game.

    This.  I’m visiting the wife’s family here in Houston.  That is just embarrassing to cutaway for a tornado way south of Houston and never go back to the game.
