    We are likely an 8-4 or 9-3 team this year.   Nothing more.   Why the hell anybody is talking about running the table after what we saw in the trenches is pure folly.   
     

    That said I am quite optimistic about this team and staff going forward.   The ass whipping we applied in the 1st half of the ou game makes me confident  that Sark will attract elite skill players going forward and I expect we will simply out score most teams down the road (including ou).   About 2-3 years of growth on the OL (maybe less if these fucksticks start to gel later this year) will get us to conf championship games.    Just leave PK the fuck alone to implement his system and get a few dogs on the ends and lb.   Once he does we can talk about playoffs.

    There has to be at least one Surly who had to take a Cotton Bowl shit. That would be the ultimate nightmare.

    I did it the year we knocked Bradford out of the game; I’ll just let loose in my pants before I ever do it again…

    Yeah that was unexpected. I was able to text photos to my parents/family on my 5g phone with very little delay. It was crazy good. 

    The best thing about the heat is I was able to drink like 5 bottles of water before and during the game and didn't have to piss once 

    Oh, you were pissing; it was just way more decentralized than it usually is…

    I don't get why everyone is so hung up on it.  It wasn't on purpose.  It was a freak thing but not that different than a regular ground rule double.

    Except that it’s a ball in fair territory that a fielder had a chance to make a play on and instead caused the ball to go into the stands. Like I said above, I don’t think that should fall under the same set of rules as a batted fair ball curving down the line that ends up under a tarp. The defensive player should be held to a one-base higher standard than the tarp…

  5. That same play will never happen again but it’s enough for me to advocate a rules modification to introduce the ground rule triple. Shouldn’t be a four-bagger, but if you (even though  unintentional) somehow defensively put the ball out of play in fair territory, that shouldn’t be the same as a ball down the line rolling under the tarp…

    Can anyone do that for the 1992 Baylor game?

    That was far more egregious than the 2015 OSU game. There were at least 3 calls in that game worse than the Poona play. Fuck Grant Teaff and his cronies…

    we have to win some more games before we start worrying about that. 

    This is true; we have no shot at making the CCG with a 2-7 conference record…

    Well, I’m not trying to drop some advanced meteorological analysis. I’m just saying, in general, I feel like an extra week could help. Late October is generally cooler than early October.

    The game was played on the first Saturday of October in 2010. Why not the third Saturday?

    it wouldn’t matter if they played in the middle of January; game day would be 93 and not a cloud in the sky, the weekend before or after would be 72, nice breeze and partly cloudy

    people forget route 66 was so bad due to turnovers. 5 of them.  they scored 66 points with less than 400 yards

    miami was an ass kicking

    Miami was by far the worst beat down of any of the games listed; from literally the first play of the game (when Chris Samuels got knocked out cold) they shit in the middle of our living room, shoved our faces in it, and told us and the entire country exactly what they were doing….

    I've been to 30 plus OU games.   One of the Brown abortions in 2001 was played in the low 40's and rain, and mirrored that clown's team.  Given that temp I guess we should move the game to late August?
     
    Texas / OU in the Cotton Bowl, 2nd Saturday in October, is simply fantastic. The Bowl needs some work, okay. Big deal.  You have a problem with crowds / concessions?  Get there earlier.   The weather?  it's Texas, you faggots. It can be 90 one day and 40 the next in October.   Remove your tampon and appreciate the beauty of this event.
     
    Dear lord.

    2000, but agree on all counts…

    One of my friend’s brought up a good question yesterday, “Why does OU get the end of the stadium by the tunnel every year?”

    I truly have no answer and have accepted it since I was a kid growing up in Dallas in the 80s and going to this game almost every year. 
     

    She and her husband sit in the Cotton Bowl Association seats above the tunnel, below the upper deck every year, and said it helped changed the momentum at the half.

    is there a reason?

    Fuck sitting on that half of the stadium. I did it for our Mack-era Cotton Bowl games and I felt dirty afterwards….
