    Sweat's athleticism at that weight was insane. Few could carry that much so well. Collins is currently listed at 317 lbs and Broughton at 291 lbs, and both could probably benefit by whatever they're able to add this offseason.

    I’ve read that they should be able to easily add 20 lbs of muscle over the summer.

    I learned in school that correlation does not equal causation. However, an argument can be made to the contrary for what happened after the '09 NC with respect to Texas and Alabama and the trajectory of each program. 

    So while I try to learn and not hold on to grudges the older I get, this is one I remain petty on.

    Fuck bama.

    I just hope that beating them at their place and Saban leaving in the same year is the reverse curse we have been waiting for since 2009. Seems fair.

    I hope Sark can come up some sick ass plays to involve all these playmakers. Need a Holgorsen type dude to dial up some exotic plays. Empty set, line up Arch wide, pitch to a Wideout, but don’t run the end around, stop throw to Arch then Manning launches a double pass to a wide open Bond for a 75 yd touchdown. 1st play of the Michigan game.

    Let’s run the last second lateral play every play. That way everyone gets like 90 touches per game.

    While I am enjoying  Alabama being torn apart like lions over a zebra kill, I wonder if Bama Beat has a point. If a head coach leaves the program, then certainly it is fair for the players to portal for 30 days. Would it also be fair to allow the school that the coach is departing from to participate in the portal for 30 days after a new coach is named?

    Maybe the last thing I would ever do is feel sorry for Alabama.

    I was mostly joking with that post, but reminded me about something. 

    It is strange to me that everyone assumes we won't have a target on our back in the SEC like we did in the Big 12. I'm not sure I can get on board with that notion. I lived for a big part of my life in the southeast. Those people fucking hate Texas (the state) and Texans. More than A&M ever could, we represent the state of Texas and those fans will absolutely be out for blood. That is on top of not wanting the embarrassment of losing to one of the new teams from the inferior Big 12. We will 100% still be a jihad game for almost every SEC program we play. Tennessee won't hate us like they hate Bama, nor will Georgia hate us the way they hate Florida. But they will still hate us. 

    And that's a good thing. Fuck those schools and those fans. We're Texas. But don't think for a second that they won't play their best game against us. 

    This is all correct. Biggest difference is that the SEC refs protect their best teams and we are likely one of those. No more Rig 12 fuckery.

    What a bitch. Kanell going with the FSU didn't want to be there + timeless classic "the bowl system is broken" + humble bragging on his mountain mansion. 

     

    If it doesn’t matter then why are your kids crying, bitch?

  7. Are we in white? I would assume so but haven’t seen it confirmed anywhere. Are there sections designated as Texas and UW? I can’t find that either.

    The movie was good except for the rooting for Washington. It lacked some character building but I guess that was to keep the movie short.

    I gained a lot of respect for UW after reading it. Seems very similar to Texas in a lot of ways.

    Elko would be a very good hire. If he’s waiting then there might be another job he wants. 

    I don’t think some of y’all realize how difficult a job Duke is (for football). 

    He and Steve Spurrier are the only coaches in the last 50 years to have a winning record there.

    I really wish that Stoops hire had stuck.

    I see you did zero research here. David Cutcliffe (the coach before Elko) had multiple winning seasons including a season with 10 wins. 
     

    Edit to see that you may have meant overall. But Cutcliffe had them in a place no one had since Spurrier.

    11.5 on a neutral field says they view Oklahoma State to be a very similar team as Texas Tech. Which I agree. 

    The only difference is Oklahoma State doesn't have complete scrubs at WR.

    But our fans are jacked and theirs barely filled half the stadium against BYU. We will have 70% or more of the fans in the stands. So really a home game for us in my opinion.

    Tarp (the reasonable aggie) is saying Elko with Robinson on staff

    I can’t wait until Tarp the Reasonable Ag makes it into the wonderful yell stories alongside Ol Rock the Good Ag.

    I’m thrilled we’re 9-1. But I’m still suing Sark.

    I’m sending him my health insurance bills for this year. Pretty sure I’ve lost a couple of years of life from the last two games.
