  1. I'll restate something I already have multiple times. Winning the last Big XII before moving on was awesome. Playing an amazing game against a very, very good Washington team was inspiring. It was bonus time for me. I was glad to see a great game. I was glad to be there, literally me being at the game and the team making it. I have some issues with the coaching in the game. As for how I'm dealing with it. These are a group of 18-22ish year old college football players and 30-60ish year old coaches. I don't have any control over what happens on the field other than being there and cheering them on in support. I was and did. That's all I can do, and it's hard to see on the losing side, but it was a fantastic game. So, I enjoyed the party before the game that immamac put on, enjoyed the game itself, didn't love the result but viewed it as bonus time to start. I worked through the Bama game in 09. Enjoyed the USC game in 05. Was at the Washington game in 23/24. Let that set it, I personally got the privilege of being at all 3, win or lose, it's a privilege to be able to afford and attend those games. I'm grateful that I could and did. How am I dealing with it? I've got to work today and had to work yesterday. So I am.
  2. To 2 different friends, text from the game from me.. typos and all.
  3. I think it very clear we were out coached or.. perhaps semantics, I Sark over coached offensively and we were out coached defensively. Now, to be clear I underestimated the W line. They're better than I thought, we had no answer to their Oline and O game plan. That was out coached. On offense, and I'm sure in this thread it's been beaten to death but I just got back from the game.. Sark had a shit early script leaning far to heavily on passing, imo. I think, running hard and often earlier might have been a punch in the nose for UW. We didn't, at all, much to our detriment. I'm not sold on Quinn getting where we need him to.. but hey, I wouldn't be a Texas fan without jumping into the QB controversy. That will play out in spring and if Arch is ready I belive Sark will lean winning over nice guy. His offensive arrogance in this game pretty much confirms that as I see it. Anyway, I said it before the game. I viewed this as game as bonus action. We won the Big XII on the way out.. I would have liked to face Michigan. We aren't, I'm bummed, but I'm still happy with the year. Not sunshine pumping. If you had told me we'd be in the CFP at the start of this year, I would have laughed at you... so.. There's my perspective, it's worth what you paid for it.
  4. I knew it already, but sometimes is still shocks me how much Aggies really do invest more emotionally in Texas losing than A&M winning. It's so logically flawed and unique. I truly don't know of any group of fans so singularly focused. Sure, lots a fan bases hate Texas or some other school a ton. (Auburn - Bama/Spartans-Michigab/UOhio-Ohio State) but nothing I'm else aware is so focused on one specific team losing. One. Not their team winning, ONE team losing.
  5. They also address just that in their discussion. They pointed out they don't think it will be close, and that they could be wrong. I enjoyed their data based take and honesty about unknowns.
  6. Of course they are.. see my note up thread about how Georgia fan is among the worst in the SEC. Oddly, probably #2 from my experience is MSU. (Think aggie style mindset)
  7. Your questions are the very reason I said I don't know if was sarcasm. It almost seemed like an Onion article to me. No clue what that AG is basing that insanity upon, but I'd be curious to know if they did undergrad at FSU. (Finding that out takes work, and I've got New Orleans on my mind)
  8. https://www.waaytv.com/news/alabama/florida-ag-so-upset-alabama-texas-are-in-cfp-over-florida-state-she-s-launching/article_6e4eed18-99db-11ee-86e7-affb90c19b81.html Florida AG asked for an investigation in why Bama and Texas were in. Sure aggie was leading the charge but there were plenty of FSU fans banging on about how neither or Texas shouldn't have made it. That's one silly link I found. Didn't verify it. Might be sarcasm.
  9. Lol, defending FSU. Give it up announcers. Fill the dead air with goofy crowd shots and comments.
  10. This along with all the shit talking by FSU fans about how they should have been in over Texas.. which.. I just.. fuck FSU. (And Georgia) But right now, fuck FSU.
  11. Oh, just a quick point of clarity. Based on my personal experience, Georgia fan is among the worst in the SEC. Please don't mistake my mocking of FSU as support of Georgia in any way. It isn't!!
  12. Ain't running up the score if it's a spring scrimmage. And it is for Georgia
  13. Well, they had a few, but they view it as it should be largely. This is a scrimmage for 2024 and a chance to shove shit down FSU's throat. You think YOU should have been in the playoff?!?!
  14. They may put in the effort, won't matter. Seriously, Georgia has gone spring scrimmage already. It's that bad. Well, too bad for FSU you're not on their roster.
  15. I think it more likely that the shitty bowls go away or they become truly extra practice and scrimmages for next year. Probably a little bit of both.
  16. Georgia isn't really even trying with 1:26 to go in the 3rd. It's... not close.
  17. Had on, sound down, got busy with some real life shit. Turns out the real life shit was fun relatively speaking.
  18. Ehh.. I think the LSU v Alabama was the worst. Say what you will about the west coast fan base, they do love to throw on a T-shirt for a winner and hate. B1G are all pretty huge football watching fans. In broader aspects, better than most based on my experience. Plus the hate for Michigan is strong. That game would get good TV views for sure. I'd watch... but unfortunately I'll be at the game watching Texas win so TV won't be an option. 🀘
  19. And, more importantly, less chance for aggie misery.
  20. Yeah, I'll always hate on Pedo State, against all comers save Rapelor but this game has, thus far, had a much higher level of competence than any others I've watched recently. UMemphis actually pops in my head as the second best I've seen, which is a statement in and of itself.
  21. You say that like we need to defend our obsession with point nosed, stretch marked, and great bolt-on milfs and meat pimp action. We don't. We never did and we never will. I mean it's not like meat-pimp mom had a fucking lump or some shit! Get up stand up, stand up for your right!
