  1. OOC schedules for the rest of the B12 this year looks unfortunate ahead of conference play. Oregon State, Purdue, UCLA, Moo State and Arizona might have been interesting during the years their contracts were inked but it isn't helping much this year. Fortunately the PAC is nearly out of the picture altogether but the B1G might be showing a bit more parity this year than in the recent past. I'll feel better if the SEC-W runner-up finishes with two losses and UGA drops one to Auburn or Florida, but not before running all over Notre Dame.
  2. I want to think that's why he didn't pull the ball in on that play, as he was thinking he'd have been blown up.
  3. Meanwhile, Coach Bro's little Ewok is getting kilt with 6/16 for 41 with 1 INT and 3 sacks. How is it the NFL coaching collective looked at Baylor's graduating talent and took a pass on all of them following Bryce Petty's evaluation as "not Pro-ready," but OU's are starters? Same bullshit system, but someone in the front office is friends with Sean McVay, so it's cool.
  4. Media ban that fuckstick the minute the ESPN LHN contract expires. Exercise the Fox contract for games that mouse takes interest in. The same four tired ESPN talking heads are legitimately bad for College football and build an agenda that rivals politics.
  5. Unbelievable I have to root for Domer, Barn and aggy to right the wrongs with UGA at #3.
  6. Who here believes OUsux is more dangerous this year than last? Those dickbags won't even be challenged ahead of us and it could play in our favor if Texas gets by oSu cleanly. Fuckstarting WVU's methfaces in Morgantown will be a fantastic way to stoke the fire. Fuck y'all, I'm ready for October.
  7. The team came out in the second half, down two possessions and nearly owned the third quarter. They occupied nearly 34 minutes in possession and put 38 points up on LSU. 38 points should be enough to win any game in the conference. The offense is fine, the talent is there, they're conditioned, battle-tested, physical and mentally tough. Coaching and scheme on defense is the problem and has been through Herman's tenure. It works against less-complex offenses like UGA, who need to establish the run first. It's demoralizing against talent that can sling the ball around and put a CB on an island. Offenses have moved on and recognize this, while our defense looks lost and have been coached to offer cushion to receivers.
  8. The committee will probably take one from the B1G if Ohio State or Penn State run the table. The B12 is wide open and its conference winner will likely be selected, because nobody from the PAC is getting in. The only travesty will be if the SEC gets two in again.
  9. Palabra, if there was a game to give up on recently, it would have been WVU last year. The only way that can be rectified is with two decades of straight Ws in the series. Edit: We also owe more pain to Maryland, Cal, BYU, Notre Dame, Ole Miss and Okie Lite.
  10. 1.) We can score on LSU and SEC SEC as easily as they were able to score on us 2.) We need help on D. There's opportunity to step up. Nobody was boatraced, this was the biggest game to have showcased at home and everyone left with a feeling Texas was just a dropped pass and a couple missed plays away from taking the game. It was just fine from the perspective of a recruiting visit.
  11. There's only one team in front of us for the conference and they're no better than they were last year while Texas is even better prepped for the October slate.
  12. And I wonder how LSU would have looked if Texas took the lead into the half. Scoreboard notwithstanding, I think Texas still plays more disciplined than LSU and I'd have liked to see panic from LSU's offense.
  13. Nearly had a hand on the ball (and Burrow). If that were OUsux, Hurts would have folded.
  14. Can't try Cook or Overshown on Chase?
  15. FUUUUUUUUUCK Green getting picked on. LSUsux wouldn't have an offense if it weren't for that matchup
  16. Quandre Diggs in the 36-20 victory over 0U in 2013.
  17. FIFY. Poors and dipshits have found their way to every platform. Twitter participation is a bold move for anyone in brand leadership. I signed up to Twitter only for fresh 'croot takes and don't post.
  18. Onyake, she wasn't feeling it with anyone.
  19. It's 2019-- Honda and Toyota shouldn't get a pass for their running cost/reliability halo established in the '90s when a large lump of their U.S. product is still being assembled with 90s-era powertrain technology. Fleet CAFE averages and lower production costs are also fringe benefits to sticking NA, port-injection, 4 and 5-speed autos in their largest sales-volume models. I also tend to hate everything coming out of Japan these days, with exception to the more attractive Mazda models, so take my bias for they way I see things.
  20. Hannah Godwin's yellow bikini in Ep. 2 was smoke.
  21. Doesn't make a shit, Jordan's gone now, thanks to that pinata stunt. I thoroughly enjoyed it and his call out on Espadrilles-- which now I realize are synonymous for loafers.
  22. Must be nice to peak out on national TV. Also filed under "must be nice," Chris is in a fantastic spot to be invited back. Older dude among a fresh and much younger cast, been around a few times before and is already wary of Annaliese, but didn't have to offer much more than eye contact to pull her in.
  23. I bought a Vinotheque insulated cabinet with racks last year that fits perfectly into the recess below my stairwell. It holds about 120 bottles and is insulated, but was missing the refrigeration unit. I had to shell out another $1400 for a WhisperKOOL 2500 cabinet system with controller and probe, but now it's under warranty and I can cellar some nicer stuff. The decorations are temporary-- I've got a collection of nice wine crate panels that I'll cut down to fit over the wall as a veneer.
