  1. Crazy how all these coaches with big guaranteed contracts are going to leave for a low base high incentive contract at aggy where they have admitted that they are cutting football expenses, support staff, and reducing salaries for their assistant coaches.
  2. Maybe that will be a push with our best win. What’s their 2nd/3rd best win. What was the outcome in games against common opponents? Texas - 8-3 K State (maybe 9 wins if they take care of business against ISU), and presumably 9-3 Okie State. Beat TX Tech 57-7 Oregon - 8-4 Utah, 7-5 USC and Beat TX Tech 38-30 Texas has a better resume. End of story. edit: Oregon has 4 wins over bowl eligible teams (5 if Cal beat UCLA tonight) prior to their CCG. Texas has 7 wins over bowl eligible teams prior to their CCG.
  3. That was Oregon’s best win of the season over an 8-4 team that played nobody OOC. Remind me again what our’s was?
  4. Fair, I think there are a few posters on here absolutely assuming the worst case. I think if you can review the facts most reasonable people would realize it will be difficult to keep Texas out (not impossible, but improbable). The Bama win was huge, without that we’d very likely be on the outside.
  5. The committee absolutely will adjust as needed especially when there are shakeups in the rankings. New data points this week: Texas secures it’s spot in the Big 12 CCG Texas destroys Tech and team that shares a common opponent with Oregon Ohio State loses/Michigan wins Regular season will be complete and they can accurately compare conference strength They’ve stated that the margins between the one loss teams was very slim, I think they have a better argument now versus next week to move teams around.
  6. Seat geek, has lower fees They are the official partner of the Big 12 so you’re basically just buying them directly from the conference.
  7. Name the best OOC win for the PAC12. (6-6 Texas Tech or 6-5 currently losing Wisconsin) The 3rd best team in the PAC12, Arizona, lost to a 5-7 Mississippi State. Oregon’s best conference win is against an 8-4 Oregon State (ours was against a 8-3 maybe soon to be 9-3 K State). Oregon’s best OOC win was a late come back against a 6-6 Texas Tech (EVERYONE in the country knows we beat Bama by double digits in Tuscaloosa where we ran out the clock with 7 minutes left in the 4th). Even if they beat Washington, maybe they offsets our Bama win but then if we beat OU/OSU it also puts our resume over the top. We also have a common opponent argument with Tech that significantly favors us as well as we beat the shit out of them and they required a late comeback to win. I think you guys are rubbing your pussies too hard here.
  8. Bought a pair in sec 203 for $400 each
  9. I’m of the opinion that Texas only gets left out if there are 4 undefeated teams. Undefeated Big Ten champ, UGA, Washington, and FSU is the only way we don’t make it in as Big 12 champs. The committee likes easy solutions. 4 undefeated champions is an easy solution. If Bama or Oregon wins I don’t see us getting left out now that we have head to head and better win over common opponent. These CCG are defacto playoff play-in games, the losers will not be considered if there are enough 0-1 loss champs to seed. If Bama and Oregon win I see the PAC12 getting the same treatment as the Big 12 did back when Ohio State jumped Baylor/TCU. You’d have undefeated Big Ten champ, FSU, Texas, Bama with Oregon out as #5 (what a dream draw). Texas and Bama played OOC, if you leave out Texas you’re telling teams that winning a huge OOC game gets you no credit and if you leave out Bama you’re punishing them for losing a big OOC game. The easy answer is to include BOTH and leave out the team whose best OOC win was against tech. The PAC12 was/is overrated. Their best P5 OOC wins all came against 6-6 tech or a 6-5 Wisconsin, and their 3rd best team Arizona lost to Mississippi State who isn’t even going bowling. Those early season PAC12 wins against Michigan St, TCU, Nebraska, Florida, and Baylor were fool’s gold. I think this is the easiest out for the committee, PLUS who the fuck is going to care about the PAC12 after this year anyways? A dead conference can’t really rock the boat going forward. Plus as always I go back to brands value. Oregon is the lesser brands of the group (like Baylor/TCU were a decade ago) so backing into a playoff that has Texas in a playoff with the SEC champ and B1G champ is too tempting to TV. They could screw FSU out of a spot, but I have a hard time seeing them get dropped if the survive the next 8 days unscathed. But again TV$ may win out over justice/ethics this case.
  10. Translation: Don’t start no shit, won’t be no shit.
  11. I mean after we got that first down we could have just taken a knee and the game would have been over. They weren’t going to call time outs or anything. But fuck them, you find out if you fuck around.
  12. Don’t jinx it you bastard!
  13. Taking the punter to the ground = running into wtf
  14. Go look up our Big 12 schedules for all sports. We play AT HOUSTON in every sports this year (or at least last time I looked). The only sport they come to Austin in men’s basketball because we play them TWICE.
  15. Direct him to Moody and have him watch the game on the Jumbotron.
  16. Michigan and Fox both are Big Ten properties as are Washington and Oregon and the Big Noon is a FOX show. UGA, Bama, Texas, FSU, Louisville are full ESPN properties. No need to promote them more than necessary.
  17. 12-1 Big 12 Champion that beat Alabama in OOC vs 12-1 non champion that lost to Alabama and played a weak ass OOC slate Don’t be a pussy.
  18. According to the Oklahoman, if I’m reading this right, the only way we get left out is if Texas AND KState lose. Then OU and Okie State would go. https://www.oklahoman.com/story/sports/college/big-12/2023/11/18/big-12-championship-game-scenarios-ou-football-oklahoma-state-texas-kansas-state/71640094007/ Look like Alex Loeb is saying the same thing on twitter indicating we’d lose in a three way tie to OU/OSU Just win.
  19. I feel like if this is true the conference would put out a statement/notice that we locked in our spot…but honestly I continue to underestimate their incompetence.
  20. Literally EVERYONE in the SEC complains about the refs giving games to Bama every year, and our game against Bama with SEC refs in Tuscaloosa was the best as far as penalties go for our “mentally” weak team. Your take is dumb and you should feel bad for it.
  21. Yeah subjective holding and PI calls that only go against us and never for us is just because Sark has a “mentality” weak team.
  22. He’s talking out of both sides of his mouth. aggy is the best job because of money and resources. It’s such a great job/money huge names are in play that you wouldn’t figure similar to Brian Kelly>LSU or Reilly>USC aggy can hire Traylor or Elko if they are the best candidate aggy doesn’t have to pay $11.5m/yr to get the right candidate So if aggy hires a big name, he was right. If aggy hires a 2nd:3rd tier candidate, he was right and it doesn’t mean it not a huge job. There is literally no way he can be wrong, and he’s setting it up so that aggy looks good no matter what they do. Dude drank the maroon Koolaid Looch keeps serving him.
