  1. That's a bold pick cotton.
  2. That and which ever offense "calms down" first. In every first game the D starts out much more "game ready" than offenses. Typically, that evens out some time around the mid to end if the first, start of the second. Largely, it is related to QB play but WRs drop passes and RBs miss lanes too. End of 1st OSU - 7 Texas - 0 Half-time Texas 14 OSU - 7 For a final of Texas 28 - OSU 21 For obvious reasons I think the Texas offense gets more settled ealier but I suspect home field advantage helps propel OSU into the end zone first. I think momentum swings OSU early then by second quarter leans heavy Texas. I'm not making a call on the 3rd. Just not.
  3. Being of Italian ancestry, the parlay was beaten into me as a suckers bet. Heritage aside, that seems like a very, very good parlay.
  4. Smith is a very solid bet QB item aside.
  5. Exactly!!! We normal, rational, only 10 fucking, 1%ers here on Surly need wackos, doom and gloomers and sunshine pumper to offset our calm, collected thoughts.
  6. Not if Shadeur released the ball when I noted. Look, based on your historical posts in this thread its pretty clear you're simping for Shadeur (and Deion) for emotional reasons. You're not looking at things rationally and that's your right. You've picked the Shadeur hill to die on, and that's also your right, but it won't end well. If you aren't going to logically look at the evidence presented there isn’t need for further discussion on the topic.
  7. Yeah all teams need the likes of him and the @satyanash of the world. We can't all be positive and sane all the time or it would get boring.
  8. Hell, some jerk with wearing ND garbage was a regular at your tailgates as were some aggies.
  9. "Put some tusin' on it!"
  10. Weeeelll... a former shitty Texas coach also took his program torpedo skills to Tuscon.
  11. Here is the aggie P4 team OOC recruiting list. Unfortunately for them, 2 of them are SEC. Top 5 worst P4 teams Good news for aggie. Wake Forest, Northwestern, Purdue, Arizona, Cincinnati, West Virginia, and Michigan State are all on the table. I'm gonna be kind and not mention UCLA for... ya know.. reasons.
  12. Well, that's true.
  13. Oooofff! That is not good news for the ND game.
  14. That is the upside of a team whose coach gets about 8 wins every year and is, at some point, in contention for a SEC championship, they have longevity. Add to it, aggie can't afford anyone else, and The Elk is there to stay.
  15. His talent is his athleticism. His QB/football habits and ego are his issues. Like I said in my last post, he's been taught this brand of QB play his entire life. This isn't bad habits that weren't coached out in college or high school.
  16. Come on man, 93 is completely wrapped up. Further, if a QB is LOOKING at a how a specific OL is doing against a particular DL, he shouldn't be starting for a P4 team much less NFL. As far as bad habits, there we agree. He has a lot of them and they've been taught to him his entire life. They are built to create good numbers for QBs in high school and maybe college. Manufactured numbers if you like. A QB doesn't quickly get out of habits trained into them since peewee football and throughout college by the same coach. Moreover, the NFL isn't the place to do so. Shaduer's entire muscle memory and QB instinct/process has to be rebuilt from the ground up. Maybe some coaching staff in the CFL has time to do such, but that requires a QB with the humility to accept that reality.
  17. Here is a good, recent reddit discussion on antennas with lots of resources. There are simple answers and complex ones. The further out/more remote you are the more complex the answer.
  18. It's an early game. The o/u is at 3 couches and 1 dumpster. I went with the under but hedged the over on 40% increase in assaults and DWIs.
  19. Gary Shandling really nailed that role.
  20. ESPN stats seem to support Gabriel being #2 Pickett 2024 Season Gabriel pre-season
  21. Let me add some highlights and point out some things beyond the fact that he's not prepared to throw the ball. I commented before he pre-snap reads and post snap progressions are terrible. The red line us where Shadeur is looking the blue arrows are where his receivers are going the yellow is open field and what I think is a LB behind on 87 Sal Canella (cut yesterday). So even IF the ball was up, he doesn't see the currently open TE and one potentially running into open space. At this point in the pic he should be at the end of his release to 87 which appears would have gotten 8-12 yards or to the WR about to be in open space.
  22. If you go up I65, which is likely, you will pass Mammoth Cave and the Corvette Museum in/just past Bowling Green coming and going off the interstate. If you're a car guy or process geomorphology nerd, both are well worth the time.
  23. I'm not one much for rules limiting athletes on health aspects when they want to keep playing. Head injuries are a massive exception to that preference for me. We've been making light of it here, my self included, but the aftermath of these is absolutely brutal and horribly sad.
  24. When in doubt, we know the rules. Put it on the wall!!
