    That was the point of the joke.

    It really hit home to me when I was flipping through, and a Houston Classic Rock station started playing Nirvana and Submline. 

    Folks need to accept that we're old. Don't be that old motherfucker in his 50's wearing Ed Hardy and only lifting upper body muscle groups so they can look bad ass wearing some affliction jeans because they think that makes them still look young and cool. 

    Yes, I realize that about 30% of this board is now probably doing the fucking eye side to side gif. As they should. 

    Who is Ed Hardy, is he Frank and Joes slow cousin from aunt Gertrude?

    Yeah I’m fucking old and I think the kids who wore parachute pants are probably still assholes, lawyers or both.  
     

    that ought to break the side to side eye gif around these parts.

    That cost one O&G exec Dad in Dallas a lot of money to get the venue moved to Brazos County, home of “Boys will be boys”. 
     

    Just when you start to think they are just a bunch of weirdos they go full B1G.
     

    Even in this modern day there’s places in Appalachia and some Texas ranches so big someone could wander off and never be seen again.

    Anyone not saying A&M is a Longhorn fraud

    Nah, weird and annoying?  Sure.  
    but I have a few aggie friends.  
     

    don’t have any meth smoking trailer park trash friends, not even my brothers in-laws.  Land thieves can all fuck right off.

     They ruin the taste of the entre dish. Sometimes when we would trend towards having to skip a meal before payday when I was growing up, my mother's last gasp to put something on the table would be old cans of vegetables. Cafeteria corn and green beans were usually what was left. Nope, I'll wait until groceries come in, thank you. 

    Similar case as a kid, but it was the frozen bag of peas, carrots and corn.  
    i can do raw carrots and corn on the cob, but peas can fuck right off along with Mexican food restaurants who mix that shit in their rice.

    Yeah, it's in one of their songs or cheers. Life in College Station, Texas must have been boring as shit around 1900. Those idiots came up with things I would have to be delirious  to even imagine. That they enshrined them as traditions, well...

     

    "Jim Bob, hurry up and change the dead dog scoreboard! Reveille can't keep up!"

    Don’t bring me into this, the pet cemetery in the back section has a dozen dogs and no scoreboard.  They never gave a shit about football, just chasing cats, coyotes and cattle.  And they’re dead.

    I agree with you, but Looch claims he has a source on the aggy side, the Ohio State side, and the agent side that said Day to aggy was never happening. No explanation given. Just said that it wasn’t a possibility. 
     

    I don’t know where Day could retreat to. Notre Dame could make sense, but I don’t think they’d fire Freeman after showing some signs of life after 3 years. 


    He’s losing his team now because they are tired of him creeping around the showers naked popping towels and trying to wrestle.  

    Penn St probably makes sense, North East roots, spent a year a Philly, used to losing to Michigan, likes little kids   Pretty sold fit really

    My concern is that the committee has filled in their brackets in with a Sharpie.

    Georgia, Michigan, PAC Champion, and SEC Champion. 
     

    Georgia has wins over Number 9 Mizzou and Number 11 Ole Miss. Pretty good resume. Plenty of precedent for SEC runner up/second best team to make the CFP. 
     

    Bama would have the best win of the year if they beat Georgia, and they’d be the Sec Champs. 

    In the committee’s opinion, Michigan has the best current win over Ohio State. I don’t think they’ll lose to Iowa, but I also think it might not matter except for seeding. 
     

    I think the committee is praying for Michigan to win, Louisville to win, and especially praying for Georgia to beat Bama to avoid some difficult explanations. 

    Nah,

    if Bama beats UGA then UT will have the best win to that point in the season, or possibly UW if Oregon wins and stays ahead of Bama.  Because Bama will be ranked higher than UGA, and rightly so.  

    End of season rankings are far, far more accurate than anything else, otherwise you would have to give App St credit for beating #6 Aggie last year who was actually a 5-7 team.  
     

    Similarly, if Bama loses it’s disingenuous to proclaim we beat the #3 team in the country after all the games have been played.   Right now our best win is against #8, subject to change based upon this weekends results.  
     

    TLDR, pre-season rankings are stupid, the more data the more accurate the rankings.

    It’s the same shit we see every year. Outside of their big teams (Bama/UGA in recent years) the SEC teams underperform in non conf and then underperform in bowls. We pretend they are good because average ass teams like LSU beat other average ass teams like Mizzou and ole Miss. LSU, Mizzou, Ole Miss would be OSU, KSU level in the big 12.

    We pretend they are good because the narrative of SEC dominance started rolling when they won 7 in a row after our 2005 win.  
    in the ensuing 17 seasons SEC has had 19 representatives, at least 1 rep in 16 of 17, and they have won 13 of the 17.  
     

    they have been top heavy for sure, and an SEC bias has led to 2 teams in the finals 3 times, but they still have to go win the games and 5 different teams have done so.  ACC has 3 wins and B1G has 1.  That’s it.  
     

    if anything I would say B1G has been the biggest underachiever based on 1 team going 1/4 with no other contenders while getting hyped up and making more money than the others.

  8. All the talking heads opinion that the B12 is the worst conference while the PAC is the 3rd or possibly 2nd best conference this year is certainly a take.  
    Just about everyone I’ve heard on radio and TV are saying UO/UW is a play-in game.  
     

    PAC is the pyrite conference skating by on early OOC games that were fools gold.  Best OOC win, UO over Tech by 8?  

     And fuck giving teams credit for ranked wins based on where they were ranked… I get giving a team a loss lowers their ranking, but App St did not beat the #6 team last year.

    FWIW I hope we continue to play big OOC games. Fuck the playoffs, it makes for more entertainment and helps recruiting. 

    If we're left out I hope we don't play this like UGA in '18. 

     

    We're 11-1. I refuse to be upset about anything college football related.

    Why bother with the early big matchups OOC, we will just play them in the playoffs.  Basically any marquee opponents will either be SEC or B1G,

    ACC teams don’t move the needle and B12 can go fuck their own faces.

    I mean honestly I would believe it. It's impossible to turn UK into a championship program and at some point in life, making $8mm vs $9mm is probably nothing for these guys

    10M/7yr guaranteed, 7M/10yr guaranteed…

    Crawfish-crawdad, Jimbo laid out the blueprint

    So Dabo is gonna leave Clemson, where he's making $9 MM per year, and their unrealistic expectations for aggy?

    Sure Jan GIF


    so you’re telling me you or anyone else wouldn’t leave $9M guaranteed to make half as much, BUT you have the chance to DOUBLE your salary if you hit all the benchmarks in a heavily incentivized contract?  
     

    you have got to be a Tsipper or just plain bad at math.

    i still can't believe Bjork still has a job. would have made more sense to fire Bjork into the sun, hire a real AD, give Jimbo another year, fire him into the sun, have your new long term AD hire the new football coach. would have saved a dump truck load of money too.

    They are Aggies. 

    Would have been a lot cheaper to fire him for cause saving $70M. 

    My service isn’t cheap but this one would have been a layup.  Basics would involve a kilo of good cocaine, a washed up UF tennis player and the B/CS police department.  Easy peasy

  13. “Maybe in 2023 by itself. A one year window. A&M has been better since 2010 by most any
    metric - wins, conference wins, bowl wins, etc. Nobody was tooting our horn when we were on top in a one year window, but as soon as they get one to go their way, they are great and we
    are clearly behind - becomes the narrative.“

    can one of you autistic degenerates check his math on this?  I’m pretty sure this is how they talk shit into existence and poof, a new tradition is born.

    They’ll probably do some sovereign immunity stiff. That’s why Billy had to make sure and state that this would be “the university” making the decision. 

    Don’t sleep on this. 
    a week ago they had a good part of the buyout committed but we’re looking for the rest.  
     

    don’t negotiate Jimbo, burn that mother fucker to the ground if they try. Good luck little cuck
