  1. Tennessee issuing a performance improvement plan and it couldn't happen to a better human.
  2. And a serial killer, but not sure that should be included in a list of occupations for this place. Rock throwers and emergency reef fund managers aside.
  3. This was my dad's (RIP pops) go to in retirement. I went with him a couple of times. While it had great memories for me, I can't see myself going back.
  4. Well who the hell is Ed O of Cignetti at UCLA for LSU? I'm so confused.
  5. Wow, I truly didn't see Heuple on the hot seat averaging 9 wins a season since he got to Knoxville. They were hovering just above .500 for 15 year prior to his arrival. That one really suprises me, and he peaked at 11 wins which was their best record in 20+ years. I guess the wind is blowing that direction this year. That or losing to the newcomers in OU really chapped some hides in Knoxville. Well, that and consistently losing to Georgia and Alabama. Lots of Bama gear running around in Tennessee..
  6. Be careful, he may neg you for both continued discussion, which he's deemed irrelevant and questioning his authority to dictate what should and should not be discussed on this forum.
  7. Well that and the video review that clearly demonstrates the call on the field was incorrect, yet not overturned.
  8. Particularly when there is very, very clear video evidence supporting them. And for those 2 there was both clear evidence, one was even reviewed plus they were obvious at the time.
  9. Did you watch the ND game yesterday? I wasn't being silly about BC giving ND all it wanted early. I can agree with Virginia but think both BYU and Tech could beat ND, with a petty high level of confidence. We've talked about Miami already so we will just have to agree to disagree on them.
  10. But they eaked out a win against 1-8 BC which is a Catholic vs Catholic huge rivalry game so they clearly deserved to go up 2 spots. Don't let the score of that game fool ya, BC ran with them early and the ND athletes pulled away late with a goodly amount of help from refs.
  11. FTFY It's pretty much a way of life for Auburn fans, at least that's what my friend who is an Auburn fan keeps claiming.
  12. Not sure anyone could have pulled Sally's baking schedule out of her.
  13. Fair is fair. Accept when it's not.
  14. If nobody cares and you haven't given it thought why are you responding in the thread and to the topic? Why do you care what others are discussing in a thread for the game on a Texas discussion board. If you didn't really care about the topic, you wouldn't post in it at all, much less multi-quote people. Me thinks thou doth protest too much.
  15. You think Sark is launching a fucking inquiry to satisfy the fans?!? Holy fucking shit that's a horrible take. And no, with good quality image you can see green between the football and the goal line in the overhead view. Want to ignore evidence, fine. Want to create an insanely dumb narrative as to why Sark is launching an inquiry, fine. Want to incorrectly interpret evidence, fine. Coming on the game thread where the incident occurred on a Texas board and telling posters to shut up about the topics is fucking truly stupid and ignorant. And THEN you fucking neg me for providing the images of the actual play and contesting your position. Holy shit you're a fucking chode.
  16. Our head coach took issue with it so much so he's requesting investigation, the Texas player on the field took issue with it at the time, many fans including myself took issue with it. Then there is the fucking photo evidence. It was REVIEWED. Look at the images below. Choosing to ignore evidence and insist upon yourself by telling others to shut up is really fucking dumb. Particularly when the god damn evidence doesn't support you nor the refs position. Visual evidence! Not supposition nor guesses. Also, you're on a Texas message board. In the game thread of a Texas message board during which the incident occurred. You are telling us to shut up about an obviously incorrect call based on all available evidence in the game thread the morning after the game. Go fuck yourself dude.
  17. I saw Pavia run into him, get punked, then spike a ball at him. I also so saw the flag and caĺl after.
  18. I lean the same way. Hence why I'm pulling for Pitt and GT with no hate for Virginia just a reality check they aren't good. I think Louisville might be the best team. I also hate grossly over hyped media darlings. (Please note I say this will full knowledge and recognition that Texas is often one of these) Miami has always been a particular axe to grind, blame the 90 Cotton Bowl if you like.
  19. If anyone cares to go back (I don't), there was a pretty large Surly contingent (I was one) that consistently predicted that shortly after his sons were gone Deion would move on to a new grift. Deion brought a lot of attention and increased enrollment to CU. Put a lot of butts in seats. This was a good experiment and financially successful for CU, but the music has stopped and the media has stopped really caring. Deion has achieved his goals (in his own mind) and I really don't think he gives a shit anymore. At this point the clock is ticking on his time in Boulder. He'll take the checks until one side or the other says enough and then it will quietly slip into the past, as will any CU football success. I, for one, am a bit sad my entertaining Telenovela is coming to an end, but always knew it was just a matter of time.
  20. "They won't" Narrator @WVU (pick em) ASU (blow out ASU) @KSU (probably loss)
  21. I get the frustration of Vandy getting back into this game, but side with others on injuries plus refs being the cause rather than the defensive scheme. And yes... we all need to sacrifice a chicken to Jobu for the speedy recovery of our DBs these next 2 weeks.
  22. No disagreement with this. For reasons I can't clearly define, I've always had a soft spot for GT and this year they are definitely my underdog favorite. So...biases are likely. So, I guess for me in an overrated conference with several media darlings Pitt and GT are the teams I like. I don't think Virginia is as good as their record indicates, and their record came against pretty crappy teams as you noted. Struggling against North Carolina, going to OT vs FSU and also losing to NSCU does not a terrific resume make. However, I do prefer them over the pomp and circumstance that is the fraud of Miami.
  23. I absolutely agree with him for 2 reasons. First, the fans. With hotels, flights, potentially car rentals, meals and game tickets going to these games on the road is an absolute financial beating. I had to pick last year and chose the SEC champ game and saved for the potential championship game. This year, due to financials, it would only be the championship game. Beyond that, the loss revenues for the schools that goes to another city some other entities etc is a massive loss. There is not reason for the first and quarter finals to be on the road for both teams other than no longer relevant historical ties. And fuck giving Jerrah Jones more money.
  24. That's being really kind. Louisville and GT were the best teams I've seem play but that loss to NCSU changes things a lot. I guess I'd put Pitt and Louisville with GT a close third. I won't buy Miami nor Virginia.
  25. It was noted up thread but I really think this was the best game this year not just for Arch but for the WRs as well. In addition to Sark getting a clue and calling a game that aligned to the strengths of the players I think the WRs took a big step forward in effort and give a shit. Mosley, imo, is helping to drive that initiative with a lead by example directive.
