  1. Is that the Barney Fife trooper or is that a young, dorked-out Lucci?
  2. Yeah, but it's kind of an incestuous metric, is it not? You have to rank teams first in order to establish a SOS. When you use SOS to rank those same teams, you're essentially ranking teams in order to rank teams - it's circular. There's also a lot of selective transitive property being applied...they apply when it helps their argument, and they dismiss it when it doesn't.
  3. Until now. I promise you it's no longer remotely comparable to what Tech just opened this past year.
  4. Them receipts sure are awfully inconvenient.
  5. I have two goals for the remainder of the 2025 season: 1. Win the Big 12 2. Beat aTm in a playoff game*. *And should this happen, I guarantee you aggy excuse will be they had a tougher season playing in the sec sec sec and thus they were more beat up than Tech in the playoffs. I guarantee you some agroids will say that very thing should we beat them in a playoff game.
  6. I love how people who know that you can't use transitive property in college football will turn around and use the transitive property to justify a position on SOS. "Tech lost to ASU who lost to Mississippi State, thus, Tech is overrated and played a weak schedule." Now, in regards to the OOC, I will not even try to defend Tech's schedule. It is what it is, and it ain't much. But Tech did beat, convincingly, the #11, #12, and #23 currently ranked CFP teams, and lost on the road to the current #25 CFP ranked team by a last minute TD. If I try and point that out, aggies and golden domers will say that the Big12 is weak and Tech's schedule is weak, yada yada yada. Well, tell me who A&M and Notre Dame have beat? Notre Dame has the USC (#15) win...that's their only victory over a CFP Top 25 team. They lost to A&M and Miami (and Miami lost to SMU and Louisville. So don't give me this crap that Tech's SOS is so much weaker than Notre Dame's, or Oregon's, or A&M's for that matter. We have wins over 3 Top 25 CFP teams, something those other teams don't have.
  7. I still don't understand why the BIG feels the need to do this. They already have the most lucrative TV deal. Are they mismanaging their funds? The whole thought of Universities and their athletic conference getting in bed with PE is mind-numbing.
  8. It’s funny because it’s true.
  9. Although I agree with your basic premise, the fact is I like what he's saying, so I'm giving him a pass on the tree, the aggy shirt, etc.
  10. Too short.
  11. Someone sure as hell is. Conference commissioner, university presidents, AD’s?? My fear is if the BIG10 does this horrible thing, other conferences will feel they have to do the same, and then it’s all over but the crying.
  12. Coaching matters. Not only are they extremely well coached, but he’s created a winning culture. You need both, and they have it. Their talent is good to great, but I firmly believe they are better coached than they are talented, and they are very talented.
  13. AT&T is our cell provider, and they offered us a free 14 day trial of DirectTV streaming. So that gets me through the next two Saturdays.
  14. Agreed. Not a fan.
  15. These are the Pat Mahomes/Addidas special branding uniforms. The decision to wear them for this game was made months ago, like June or July, due to Pat's bye week.
  16. Finally read the whole story. I don't like Baylor, don't care what happens at Baylor, and wouldn't mind if Baylor ceased to exist. But when I read that the initial response from the administration was to require the player and assistant coach to apologize to the AD for the incident. What the holy fuck? I have a new disgust and hatred for BU's administration and its douchebag athletic director.
  17. Why are so many dentists douches? When he said he wanted to become a dentist, I'm like, "of course you are". I guess you have to be wired differently to spend a lifetime looking in peoples' mouths.
  18. McGuire is a 2020 inductee into the Texas High School Coaches Association Hall of Honor and a 2022 member of the Texas High School Football Hall of Fame.
  19. This is the correct answer.
  20. I heard it's always at a Wal Mart. It's a promotion/sponsorship partnership with Wal Mart.
  21. There's no need to bring my mother into this discussion.
  22. Lutherans can't get organized enough to be corrupt. We're too poor.
  23. They changed that rule midway this season (probably due to all the crazy early and midseason firings). OSU was grandfathered, so your players got to portal immediately afterwards whereas other schools the players have to wait until the regular portal window opens.
  24. That is one of the coolest pics ever. And whereas most folks can't pull off the mustache/porn-stache, I gotta admit John Curry wears it very well. /notgay-nottherer'sanythingwrongwiththat
