  1. ND should have joined the BIG years ago....and then Rutgers could have remained where they rightfully were.
  2. I never thought he would leave BYU. So I don't know if this is positioning for a better raise/extension, raise for assistants, moving some NIL from MBB to FB, or a combination of all of the above. I just can't see him in State College, PA, USA.
  3. https://x.com/FootballScoop/status/1995558715978908155?s=20 I still don't know how to post an X link here.
  4. I miss the old, original Big 12, especially the 2008 version when the Big 12 South was as tough of a league as anywhere you would find. I would like to have seen the old Big 12 paired with the modern 12 or 16 playoff and just see what would happen.
  5. How do we know? We'll never know...unless Tech beats the SEC team(s) it faces in the CFP. Otherwise, it's all hypothetical.
  6. It's not laughable. I know for a fact Tech has tried to schedule upper end SEC teams and they won't take the call. So until I see A&M, UT, Alabama, Georgia, LSU, etc. on Tech's future OOC schedule, I'll continue to make my case. UT and A&M will not even pick up the phone, which is fine. But then don't turn around and tell us we don't play anybody when you are unwilling to play us. You can't have it both ways.
  7. Shouldn't be in the CFP? You're an idiot.
  8. Here's the thing... Tech would love to schedule these teams in OOC, but they can't get any buyers (I would bet BYU and others would say the same thing). So if BIG and SEC refuse to schedule the other P2 schools, then how can they then say the other P2 schools should be excluded because they "don't play anybody"? If BIG & SEC are so confident that they are so much superior top to bottom than Big12 and ACC, why won't they schedule them with reciprocal home games? Oregon at least did with Tech, so I'll give UO credit for stepping up to the plate when most in their conference and SEC won't. What really pisses me off is the 8 game conference schedule in the SEC to boot. Yes, I now that changes next year (thankfully), but this year SEC teams played 8 conference games to everyone else playing 9. So it's a damn racket. (1) Criticize B12 and ACC for not having as strong a schedule, but (2) won't schedule B12 and ACC, (3) only playing 8 conference games to everyone else playing 9, and then (4) demand more teams in the CFP because SEC is obviously superior to everyone else. Forgive me if I refuse to concede that SEC is just that much better of a conference. It's more of a self-fulfilling prophesy conference.
  9. I was starting to feel bad for Marty Smith. The longer it went on, it kind of have that Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault feeling to it.
  10. Agreed. But the SEC SEC SEC folks seem to think that the CFP is supposed to be an SEC Invitational Tournament. I really hope they go 0-fer in the playoffs...and I really, really hope it's Tech that sends aTm packing.
  11. Exactly. It’s absurd that anyone would try to make the argument that Alabama is not a destination program. It’s the quintessential destination program, if you can handle the pressure and the complete absence of any semblance of a private life.
  12. What’s are “calss” and why doesn’t UT have any?
  13. I’ll be there as well.
  14. Apparently, he's not good at the glad handing part of the job. Big complaint I would hear from the UNT faithful is that he really didn't seem interested in being around the fans. He would do his radio show at the local Rudy's and as soon as his segment was done, he was gone without shaking any of the hands of the folks who were in attendance. He's a good coach, but nowadays you have to be more than that. You have to be CEO of the operation, and part of that operation, especially at the P4 level, is being a promoter of the program. From what the UNT folks tell me, he doesn't seem to have much desire to do that part.
  15. ASU lost at the very beginning of the season, on the road, due to one play at the end of the game where the DB and Safety both missed their assignments. One blown play at the end of the game. They had the victory and just lost it on one play. Stop with the transitive property BS, especially games played in week 1 and 2 when these transfers are still trying to gel. Tech lost to ASU who was blown out on the road a week earlier by Utah who Tech blew out of their own stadium. Transitive property is meaningless, especially in games played in week 1 on the road. In 2008 Tech nearly got beat by Nevada (@ Nevada) and looked pretty meh in another non-conference game. Later that season they beat two Top 10 teams in consecutive weeks. Using the ASU week 1 loss on the road to Miss St. as a reason to say Tech is not very good is either being dishonest or ignorant or both.
  16. I realize I'm a third party to this conversation, but as a Red Raider and a normal human being, I get especially annoyed with the following Aggy-isms: 1. TU. Fuck that stupid shit. No where anywhere is UT called "Texas University". It's the University of Texas (at Austin). TU is fucking stupid and juvenile and screams little dick syndrome. I will actually dress down any fellow Red Raider who uses that term, because it is retarded to do so and we don't need to act like fucking dumbass aggies. 2. Ran out of time. No, you imbeciles, you lost. As in, you scored less points than the other team when the game ended. You fucking lost. You are lucky you "ran out of time" when playing OU to a competitive 0-77. There was no amount of time ever that would have allowed you to come back and win that game, or 2003 vs. Tech when we beat your ass 59-28 and you still had the gall after the game to say you ran out of time. Take the L. 3. T-sips. I have to admit my Red Raider dad also used that term when he was alive. Another stupid aggy-ism that is supposed to be insulting but I don't get it. When I asked my aggy relatives about it, they would mock UT fans "drinking tea with a pinky in the air". These are the same people who love to say "Look, you have TeeTee on your shirt....you have TeeTee on your cap....your ring has TeeTee on it....hahahahahaha. I'm like, seriously, are you five? You are grown adults laughing your asses off at teetee and peepee jokes? Sorry for the rant and intruding on your thread of hate, but the above three things are my some of my biggest pet peeves with the society of Agroid.
  17. He has served his time in Purgatory. /notRomanCatholic
  18. The girlfriend side catfight was nice. Pulling hair...the whole bit. Society's lowest common denominators on full display in that video.
  19. That’s bullshit. There may be some recency bias due to aTm being off the schedule longer than UT, but otherwise no, the hate is strong against atm.
  20. Holy cow! I didn’t realize the MS Paint aggy was modeled after a real person.
  21. If they hadn’t shit the bed against Wake Forest, would they already be in the CCG?
  22. My name is Uncle Nate, and I support this message.* *Except for the part where you said they are Texas Tech. Fuck that shit.
  23. But they smoked UNT in the Physics Bowl earlier today, and that’s all they care about.
  24. Wow. I thought UT was supposed to have superior academics. That was…regarded.
