5 minutes ago, Not a Sock said:Will y’all stop looking for some sort of Maroon Media Conspiracy, there isn’t one. A&M is the college football equivalent of a hot chick with a smoking body and all of daddy’s money but is also a complete psycho. The national media is the random dudes at the bar that she flirts with to get attention but anyone who grew up with her or dated her knows that she can only hide the crazy for so long.
Note to self: Never ask Not a Sock to recommend hot chicks...

It really boils down to Louisville. There are 5 power conferences and 4 seats at the table. Leaving one out is mandatory, but leaving two out would depend on a significant gap between the #2 from the "better" conference and the winner of the "worse." If Louisville wins, ACC is the odd man out. If we shit the bed against OSU (lose or win ugly), the committee has its excuse to take a second team from somewhere else, whether that be UGA after losing to Bama, UW after a close loss to UO, or tOSU. But an FSU loss and Texas taking care of business is a clear path.
This is where I'm at. It all comes down to us and FSU. If FSU wins, we're out. If they lose and we win, we're in.

We are soooooo close to Ag Head Coach Bobby Petrino.
He fits the profile the need to fill. He was once good enough that they could get excited about the possibility of future success, no matter how unlikely. Has no viable alternatives so would take the job. It seems like a match made in heaven.

Luckily for aggy, there isn't one agent with a near monopoly on top tier coaches who knows first hand what went down between them and Stoops.

The “we hired a guy who built his reputation on being an elite OC/play caller but has shown questionable game management ability, so we should totally have him lean into that weakness throw that strength by the wayside” bit is astounding in both its stupidity and persistence.That's how I feel about the argument that being the full time play caller is somehow unrelated to questionable game management. He's the head coach - game management is his job.

I usually had rah rah shit like Herman's gold teeth and row the boat, but I love that Sark sent Sweat and Murphy out for the coin toss and then made the team listen to Yormark clips in the locker room. This team has a ton of talent, but hasn't consistently played with an edge. That hasn't been a problem the last two weeks.

I don't get this comment. It sounds like a shot at Broughton, but I (for 1 I guess), have been very pleased with his development this year. Huge improvement.
I agree. We've consistently had DTs improve year over year. Sweat had questions about his motor and weight as recently as last year and now he's on On3's heisman list.

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.
That's not how Tech (or aggy) is wired. They don't have letdown games against Texas. Unfortunately for them, being motivated usually isn't enough to win in Austin.

28 minutes ago, ousux said:3 hours ago, BabaYaga said:This is all true - the concern for me are these little windows in time that the CFB Gods give you that you have to capitalize on. The Rig12 is dogshit this year and this team keeps regressing, not surging. At some point this team has to turn a corner and be what the prognosticators think you can be: dominant. The first half play is proof of this. It's the second half that has everyone so concerned.
Early in the season it was the opposite. In fact the talking heads were saying how we get stronger as the game goes on and win the 4th quarter. I don't know exactly what happened since then but I'm reasonably sure attrition through injuries plays a part.
People compare UT's close games to Georgia against Auburn or South Carolina, etc. The difference is that Georgia starts slow and and then turns it on and pulls away. They outscored South Carolina 21-0 in the second half and outscored Auburn 17-3 in the last 16 minutes of the game. Michigan has had some slow starts and then blow out their opponents. That's a "normal" pattern when dominant teams play cupcakes. Texas is just weird this year.

He might be the best play caller after Riley. Get out of here with that bullshit. He’s such a good play caller that we hired him to be able to match Riley yet you think we should hire another OC.
Which game would you say he's been elite this year?
-
He needs to let someone else call plays. When things start going wrong, he can't problem solve on his own.

The overall results have been very good, but it is frustrating to watch teams become 1 dimensional and still have success.
I have had this same thought. How can he be so good at taking away other teams' strength and then struggle against what should be their weakness? Holding KSU to 30 yards rushing should have been a blood bath and then Howard has a career passing day. PK struggles after he gets exactly what he wants.

Clearly something going on with MM, whether it be physical or mental.
Bagging on the kid at this point does very little.
This. I don't know what folks were expecting. MM looked amazing until midway through the second quarter, made some spectacularly poor decisions and melted down. That's what you'd expect from a redshirt freshman with 1 career start. Look at KSU's freshman QB. He threw one pass that probably should have been intercepted and didn't play again. Arch would have had his share of WTF plays had he started. There's a reason coaches avoid playing freshman QBs if at all possible.

I'm 48 and creakier than I used to be. Every time Brooks gets up after being tackled, he looks like me getting off the floor. I can't tell when he's hurt and when he's just doing his old man standing up impression.

Can’t say it any better, there were some imbeciles on here who were jealous of tcu’s cinderella season.
I'd trade their season last year for ours in a heartbeat. So sure, I'm jealous of their season. Just not their coach, team, city, future, etc.

Wasn't this supposed to be Tech's year?

Offensive game planning and play calling is the best thing he does on game day. If you take that off his plate you just eliminate the only advantage of having him out there in the first place. I don’t know why this keeps being parroted.I recognize that I am biased - I don't believe the head coach should call plays. That said, this gets parroted because Sark's title isn't offensive game planner and play caller. It's head coach. Sark the head coach isn't able to step in a tell Sark the play caller not to do dumb shit like run it 4 times on the goal line.

The Pirate took care of this the old-fashion way. He only had like six plays, and they were all known by everybody. Whether it was a pass or a run, which way, and to whom it was given, the QB often didn't know until the play started, and even then it depended on who he was reading.
Harbaugh: "Why did you give me a 30 page transcript of what looks like a cooking show?"
Staffer: "Coach, that was Leach walking his QBs through their game plan for tomorrow."

Houston with a bit of a self own here
That's more than a 300% increase from their previous game. If they keep this up, every single person in the country will tune into their final game against UCF.

Those stats are impressive, no doubt, but Quinn just doesn't seem to have "it" to me. I want him to be successful but his body language, pocket presence, and throwing motion don't give me confidence. I find myself holding my breath on passing plays hoping for a completion vs expecting one.
Maybe Maalik is the answer, maybe he isn't but his attitude, and bearing say leader to me.
I hear what you're saying - it's hard to point to instances where Quinn took over a game. The second half against Alabama is probably the closest, though it's not like Quinn carried the team. A bunch of guys stepped up. And that's the issue - from what I can tell, Sark wants someone to run his system. If everyone does their job, no one needs to be the hero. Sark wants an efficient bus driver rather than superman. And Quinn's been driving the bus pretty well.

I understand what Michigan is accused of doing. I'm also absolutely positive I don't give a shit, regardless of what the rule is.
