    INSTANT REACTION: No. 1 Texas ROCKS Oklahoma amid putrid OU offensive performance

    That guy is an incoherent beating.  I am dumber from having heard him talk.

     I’m pretty concerned Liberty wins out and gets the 12th seed. Their schedule is a joke and they just canceled a game against their toughest remaining opponent. I pray they slip up. A 12-0 Liberty, best win is East Carolina,, in the CFP is going to deeply piss BIG and SEC fans that get left out. 

     

    The counter-argument is that getting a G5 team in the playoffs builds interest in leagues that otherwise might not give a shit... plus it adds a Cinderella to the dance like in March madness.  
     

    *Unless Texas finishes 12 and gets left out, in which case let me go ahead and say, "The system is a fucking joke.  We would mudhole those clowns with all 22 starters on the bench.  Ridiculous!"

  3. As others have said, it's rarely smart to take points off the board.  

    But the score and situation made it especially dumb.  You're looking sloppy and sluggish vs a scrappy underdog, and you FINALLY got a 2-score (11-point) lead for the first time all day...

    And that's not hindsight talking.  When our offense went back out there, everyone around me agreed, "This is stupid whether we get it or not."

    They need to make the player “injured” miss a series. This shit is a joke. 

    100% this.  Should have been a rule 10 years ago when it was obvious that the rules were getting clowned.  

    If we care about player safety, then these kids who go down need to sit the rest of the quarter.

    This new music sucks. Same thing our dads said to us, and their dads said to them. 
    We’re getting older. 

    All true.  
     

    But my disdain for Bro Country has nothing to do with its newness.  There are a ton of even newer genres that I either embrace or am indifferent towards.  

    My disgust for it is based on the distinction between art and commerce.  And the fact that the teams of (mostly Nashville-based) musicians/producers/engineers making it actually *could* make great art if they chose to do so.  
     

    But they don't.

    Kai Money was Herman era.  

    Just an aside here, but that example speaks to the absolute transformation of our roster under Sark.  

    Under Herman, how many 1-score struggles were we in with the Baylors, Iowa States, and KUs of the conference, and we'd have a critical 4th-quarter possession, and we're running out there with a scrappy walk-on at one WR, and on the other side, we've got Epps?

    In 2024, if we have a 2nd-half possession and (for whatever reason) we wanted to rest our starters, we'd be rolling out there with some combo of Wingo, Golden, or Bolden.  

    The talent level and depth of some of these position groups is just crazy... RB the last couple years, WR this year.... you're talking about a room full of guys where the 4th-man-up has NFL potential. 

    It's Alabamesque.

  7. Also, I just had a chance to re-watch the game, and it was even more of an ass-kicking than I remembered.  

    I mean, two possessions into the 3rd Q, and Texas had 24 points while Michigan had 10 yards of offense.  That's the kind of box score disparity you see when a great team plays Southwestern Tallahassee Night School... except we did it on the road against the defending national champion.  

    Crazy.
