  1. Moore has had a good past few weeks, and was getting a lot more targets than usual in the 1st quarter. A huge drop and a bit of a juggle on the sideline hurt him. Sark seems to play the hot hand. I wouldn't be surprised to see Wingo get another big play or 3 before the year's over.
  2. Damn this was prescient as fuck. I'm struggling to find the connection that some of my friends get from voting for Trump, and I guess this makes as good of sense as any. I haven't had "real" conversations with them (not that I think they have "real" reasons), but the centering of culture war bullshit from the right really resonates with them. This puts it in perspective. As a 36 y/o latino male I don't share the view that they're abandoning me, but I'm probably older than who this is talking about and also grew up with the party that I vote for. Not because I love all of their ideas, but I find myself more closely aligned with what they represent, and a hell of a lot less of what that fake orange man is and represents.
  3. What a rough 2nd half watch. Sometimes Wemby looks like he's just playing rec-league hero ball throwing up 3s like a YMCA Steph Curry. The silver lining for me is the built in excuse that we were missing our 2nd best player of 2024 (and obvs 2nd best player on the team as well).
  4. "Who's your daddy" chants as their RB runs in the final nail in the coffin is pretty damn badass. Dirty work. Ya love to see it.
  5. Should've gone to the game tonight, was debating a quick day trip from Austin up until yesterday. They played hard and the defense showed. Vic with a few highlights tonight and Keldon with his best game of the season. Through 6 games this might be Sochan's team though.
  6. So then they're getting it right? The overturns are a success. I understand it adds 7 minutes of agony to your total watch time but they're literally making sure it's right. And plenty of us have seen no-brainers that are absolutely worthy of an ejection.
  7. We're gonna beat their ass. People manufactured worry because they dropped 50 on Mississippi State. We're going to beat their ass.
  8. Still not sold on Champagnie (sp). He's just as streaky as Keldon but plays a bit harder defense? Hm I guess I also forget he's just keeping Devin's spot warm though. We need more shooting baaaaad.
  9. A game of inches. 4th down, we hold there and it's still 24-10, and the defense does their best work of the day, holding Vandy scoreless on a 38-yard field gifted to them by the Texas O. Vandy really benefitted from some stupid luck, timely penalties and incredibly stupid personal fouls on our end to keep it within 14.
  10. It was sad to watch, but won't mind seeing Khamzat for the belt. I don't know who is strong enough to keep him off though. Would love to see him beat strickland first. Main event was rough. Holloway was doing just fine. Putting on a striking clinic at times. Then.... bam. Topuria's power gotta start entering rare territory in UFC lore.
  11. A little of both. They don't have to play undefeated BYU or undefeated Iowa State. The only team in the top 3 of the conference they lost to by 3 (KSU), while also needing OT to get by Baylor. I think this game against Tech will solidify if they belong in that Top 4 or are just like the rest of the middle of the pack (which is a lot of schools). They have earned the right to prove it at this point, imo.
  12. I'm fine with the defense today. Offense gave them a 2nd straight game of "fuck you clean up our shit." And that TD at the end would have had a lot smaller likelihood of happening if Broughton doesn't go full regard. Moore looked good, Ant looked good, the speed of the defense was on display again keeping Pavia from breaking anything big after that initial touchdown. The coverage was very sticky tonight too.
  13. He was a 1st round pick 2 weeks aqo. Absolutely stunning turnaround by him. My hat's off.
  14. Ese guey tiene cojones, y Quinn ....... Well Quinn.....
  15. He's a young guy we can live with mista.............. /s
  16. Exactly my thoughts. How underwhelming. Didn't go to one game this year, had gone to 3-4 each of the first few seasons. The team didn't play with heart, the coach didn't seem to have control of the team, lacking leadership and desire. Now the GM contributes to the lack of inspiration?
  17. I get a little excited then go through my account to see that I sold some off earlier this year at 8.75 in late April. Let me hold my damn horses and let this make some money.
  18. Sturgill's ACL taping is on Monday. Giveaway link is here: https://acltv.com/tapings/. Actually went to my first ACL taping a couple weeks ago to see Carin Leon while he was in town for the festival. That venue is awesome, the show was great, and I would be incredibly stoked to see Sturgill on that stage (even after catching him at the fest), so fingers crossed and if anybody wins with an unused+1........
  19. Brother that's a win for the LG, I don't know what you're on. He got "pushed" back like two steps then anchored. Strong rep.
  20. 3 interceptions and got 7 points out of it. And at that only because Jahdae had a hell of a return on one. The defense was fine. Completely let down by their counterparts.
  21. I got big questions after tonight. Took my time hopping off the bandwagon but I'm just not sold on the dude at this point in the season. There's a number of college QBs that Sark can make into stars with good blocking and a solid run game. Quinn isn't pushing that ceiling unfortunately. And yes his deep ball is not reliable, to say the least. Luckily for us there's not a lot of Dline that can whoop out ass like that, but when the time comes to make the playoff, we're going to be praying for "good" Quinn.
  22. I heard that shit too. And his knockoff fucking henchmen of ill-educated clowns who not only failed but got one of themselves killed in the process. They knew exactly what he meant when he said "patriotically", to them that's a incendiary word, absolving them of any decency because they get to hide behind the flag instead of uplifting and strengthening it. Selling their souls for a grifter.
  23. Ran into this little breakdown last night, thought it was really interesting. Been hearing about the shift to position-less since last year, but cool to see it in action. It's obvs not exactly position less, because Wemby needs to be positioned around the basket on defense at all times so he can lead the league in blocks, but being able to switch 1-3 and hound mfers into submission should be fun to watch. The interview quotes with everyone seemingly bought into the defensive intensity is also great to hear.
  24. Sturgill was about as good as I could've hoped. Glad I finally got to cross him off my live list. What a band and what a bunch of musicians.
