It’ll be about 10 seconds per challenge.
even if all 25 of those from that game above are challenged, that’s an extra 4 minutes tacked on to the game.
this is one of those changes where by the 2nd weekend everyone will be asking why this wasn’t done 5 years ago.
The weeping of gnashing of teeth when a key call can’t be challenged in the playoffs this year is going to be hilarious
(as long as it’s not against my Astros… which is becoming hilarious to think they’ll even be there)
Here are the potential conflicts
First team listed could host the other team(s) shown two years in a row (A&M is the only team guaranteed to be back on the road to at least one of its three ‘annual opponents’):

Georgia:
Kentucky: Florida, Tennessee
LSU: Arkansas, Texas A&M

We’re not talking about the next 4 seasons now.
we’re talking about next year and will Texas have 6 opponents they haven’t faced before in conference or a repeat(s) among vandy /UK/Florida/Miss St/Georgia
i wont be surprised if they do
I get it.
And know what makes the most sense. But I don’t think it’s been explicitly said that if you were on our schedule the last two years (and aren’t arky/a&m/ou) you won’t be next year.
Just saying don’t be shocked if we get a vandy, Florida, or Kentucky again
Yeah.
As indicated in the release, with NIL and transfer portal it’s going to be impossible to reasonably assess SOS until end of January each year (or even later if the coaching carousel is still revolving)
How do you know it’ll be 6 of those 7?
I get it’s assumed we won’t be playing anyone we’ve played the last two years (outside of our 3 locks), but I won’t be surprised if sec gon sec and we get a repeat of another team or two.
This.
Since they care so much about tradition, we can go back to games in Austin in even years and College Station in odd years like it was for about a century.
Correct.
i just came here to post this.
I think it’s stupid, but that’s what they were planning to do.
I think you get more excitement by having a rematch of a great game immediately in the next year than having a gap year
Tip your cap to the mariners.
for the last 10+ years always said they didn’t scare me and would have to prove it before I ever considered them a thread.
they found an offense (or at least a season for the ages and in one bat) and got hot at the best time.
14 out of 15 is incredible
My 7 yo self still remembers where I was for this one.
4-T) 14 runs (1st inning): Reds vs. Astros -- Aug. 3, 1989
Mid-40s self doesn’t really want to psychoanalyze why that is and how that’s impacted social and mental well being
You asking about the flex, or the screengrab?
screengrab is from ESPN’s College Football Final’s “That’s a Dollar” segment where they sarcastically give out a dollar to the most absurd /silly/stupid plays of the day.
they ripped on Arch and the Texas football Twitter account talking about arch having swagger …against SHSU.
(Btw, ou had two moments receive a dollar this week)
