  1. Shamelessly stolen from TexAgs: Since our Big XII Title in 1998: Number of seasons with better than an 8-4 record: Slocum: 0 / 4 Fran: 1 / 5 Sherman: 1 / 4 Sumlin: 1 / 6 Fisher: 2 / 6 Elko: 0 / 1 5 / 26 21 of 26 seasons have been 8-4 or worse. This is actually unbelievable.
  2. He'll be at Clemson in two years and throw for 1,920 yards, a 72.5% completion rate, 8.1 yards per attempt, and have a 155.0 QB rating.
  3. You should thank your lucky stars that Aggies, as a people, are so virtuous and merciful.
  4. Cross posting this because it's remarkable. Here is an incredible stat: Texas has more Interceptions than TDs allowed Texas has 18 interceptions against 13 TD's allowed. Next best is Ohio State with 9 ints to 13 TDs allowed. Of the 13 TD's that Texas has allowed, only four were passing TDs, so Texas has 18 ints to 4 passing TDs, a ratio of 4.5 to one. I remember games against the Sooners when our defense gave up more than four passing TDs in one game. Georgia's defense, conversely, has given up 26 TDs --- twice as many as has Texas. I'm thinking that, in the modern era, those kinds of numbers/ratios might be historically good.

  6. There's just nothing that makes my soul happier than a TexAgs meltdown. Nothing. I wish I could bottle this schadenfreude for days when I'm depressed.
  7. You'd have to be crazy to have a spot at Texas and then switch. Sark is building a monster. Five players drafted two years ago. Eleven last year. I've seen projections of up to 13 this year.
  8. They say that Kyle Field is very hard to win in. And yet A&M, who plays in Kyle more than anybody, has won barely 50% of their conference games in Kyle field since joining the SEC, proving the idea that it's a hard place to win in very, very wrong.
  9. And only one from Arkansas. If you'd have told me before the season that we'd play our three historical rivals this year and they would score a combined seven points on offense I'd have thought you were smoking crack.
  10. The last part of @Reynolds Woodcock's statement was: "I'll take the guy that played tonight." You answered: "Why do people keep saying this?" My answer was a response to that question.
  11. It was Quinn's 26 yard scamper on the second drive of the game that got Texas' offense going. We had gone three and out on the first series and, after two short completions, it was third down and five. After that 26 yard gain, we moved the ball efficiently down the field and scored our first TD.
  12. This is some of the best 1 + 2 punch of Schadenfreude I have ever read. That first post went RIGHT INTO MY VEINS!!!!! Who would he start in front of?
  13. No shit. TexAgs is insane right now. Before the game they seriously thought they had a chance to win and are now upset that they didn't because they live in a state of unreality. The score was 17-7 but should have been so much worse. Some of them realize it. One of them wrote a "kill me now" screed that had me convulsing with laughter.
  14. He might want to spray fire retardant on his couch, too.
  15. No. It just means Ohio State sucks.
  16. Is now a good time to point out that Texas carved this Michigan team up like a Thanksgiving pumpkin pie? AT Michigan, to boot.
  17. He's 80 years old. Longevity remains even MORE undefeated.
