  1. I worked for a couple of years as a psychologist in a maximum security prison, and believe me that place was hell on earth for reasons I won't go into. Imagine the worst things you think of, and then double it. Seeing just how terribly human beings can treat each other (inmates, officers, admin, every single person there) changed me forever. 

    But on a more light-hearted note, my best friend and I worked at the Captain's Club out at Lake Travis for its opening weekend. We started as busboys on a Friday and the owner said he couldn't pay us much money but we could eat all the food we wanted. As high school seniors that sounded good to us. Sunday it was shut down following the worst food poisoning outbreak in Texas history. Literal sewage in the water.  Goodbye innards. We had a backpacking trip in Colorado a few days later, celebrating graduation, and we left every gas station bathroom between Austin and Denver a shit-covered hellscape.

  2. A month to get healthy, focused, and ready to payback Washington. Glorious! Well done to Sark and company, and to all of the players that have bought in. 
     

    I will say it again — one of the best parts of this season is that the first year players have only experienced Texas dominance. Beating Bama at their place. Electric home crowds. Destroying conference teams. Now getting to the playoff. Gotta think that makes a hell of a “culture” impression on CB4, Cook, Ant Hill, and all of the other young guys. They are bought in and ready to go for years to come. 
     

    Also one more quick shout-out to everyone who worked on or contributed to Texas’ NIL packages. That has made a huge fucking difference. Well done!

    I disagree... This is tech's Superbowl

    Just remember on the same night Yormark told tech fans that we got Texas out of the B12 a year early... and told Joey to take care of business in Austin on Thanksgiving,  McGuire also trash talked Texas.

    McGuire, without naming the schools, referred to OU and UT as "these so-called bluebloods — and I really question that. One of them's really good in Olympic sports."

    McGuire credited Yormark with thinking outside the box and stabilizing the Big 12.

    "I know he has a plan to close the gap," McGuire said, "but part of my job is to close it even faster. He said it: Part of my job is to make that team in burnt orange — if that's really a color — if that team leaves, then make sure that they're going to a conference that they can no longer compete in this conference with teams that are in this conference."

    "There is an opportunity to put the Red Raiders at the forefront of this conference," McGuire said, "and I don't want to wait 'til 2024 when it's a new conference. It's more important to do it in 2023 when those old two are still here so they can understand exactly who runs the Big 12."

     

    You can ask that moronic ISU lineman how talking shit worked out for them.

    I don't think Tech will be as hyped up for this game as some think.  Their expectations coming into this season were that this game would be a deciding factor in who goes to the championship game.   After some terrible coaching followed by tons of QB injuries, they're thrilled (and surprised) to be bowl-eligible as of yesterday.  This will be a letdown game, of a sort, for them. The Longhorns will roll over them with ease and the game will be over by early in the third.

    I don't totally agree with this, but I do think that if Texas gets an early lead Tech will fold fast.

  6. Our team will be laser-focused on beating the absolute hell out of TTU and leaving no doubt in anyone's mind about getting to the Big12 Championship Game and being a worthy consideration for the playoffs. We are going to curb stomp them. They are walking into a buzzsaw.

    Come on now, he got rid of a whole bunch of dead wood and scrubs who went 1-8 in conference last year and replaced then with 50-some new guys who will go... 1-8 in conference. 

    TCU, Nebraska, and in-state rivals Colorado State (CU's opening football slate) have a combined 13-17 record at this point. BUT SUCH HUGE WINS!!
