  1. Elite recruits were flipping/committing to Charlie Strong (I think the most comparable recent coach to Napier) even when it was abundantly clear that Strong was a complete disaster. Sometimes teenagers don't make logical decisions.
  2. Jeez, seems like you need a stiff drink. Go ahead, It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere.
  3. Unlike the polls, SOS doesn't arbitrarily stop at 25.
  4. Billy Napier is a Charlie Strong-level disaster of a head coach, so I include Florida in the Arkansas territory assuming they retain him. Losing to Billy Napier should be a for cause fireable event for any coach. I don't think they'll go 0-4 against LSU, Missouri, ND and Texas, and I don't think they'll go 4-0 against the teams you mention. But 8-4 should be very manageable absent a complete roster implosion or total failure of coaching. Both of which could of course happen, since it's A&M we're talking about.
  5. I mean, they really should go 8-4 at worst next year. Their schedule is super favorable. No Alabama, Georgia or Ole Miss, and their four toughest games (ND, LSU, Texas and Missouri) are all at home. ND and LSU are relatively down, and although we should be better than A&M on paper, it's worth acknowledging that we have to replace a fuck ton of talent on both sides of the ball next year. If they can't get to 8 wins next year, it's a really bad sign for them.
  6. Maybe, but it at least puts us in play. If Georgia wins, that spot is 100% taken and we almost certainly lose out to Oregon. Sadly, I don’t think we’ll find out because I suspect Georgia will win and cover.
  7. You are wrong, as has been explained many times. Bama beating Georgia absolutely helps us, although by no means guarantees we get in. It strengthens our win compared to Oregon’s win over Washington (whereas if Bama loses, Oregon can claim both a better win and a better loss compared to us). If Bama, Texas, Oregon and FSU all win, I’m betting Texas gets in. Whether that’s over Oregon or Bama, I’m not sure. If Georgia, FSU and Oregon win, we are toast.
  8. Just remember that you are on the football board and it should clear up any confusion. Every scenario is blindingly obvious to anyone with a lukewarm IQ.
  9. Afire on Criterion Channel, from Christian Petzold (his movie Phoenix from about 10 years ago is really excellent, for anyone who hasn’t seen it). A slow burn (no pun intended), with an exceedingly unlikely lead that is so good at being unlikeable it almost ruined the movie for me until the final 20 mins or so.
  10. You are “speachless” [sic] because you are too fucking stupid to understand the point being made. Go back to your coloring book.
  11. I’m not going to search my old posts, but I’m right there with you.
  12. We sure have come a long way from the days of “the cesspool in Austin, Texas” while GameDay was at College Station.
  13. Everyone on GameDay except Desmond was pumping up Texas. No surprise that Fox is more acrimonious given they are losing the brand. This is all about tv and money (no shit, it’s college football), which is one key reason why Texas has a great chance to get in.
  14. Sark said after the game that Watts didn’t go back in. Some kind of back injury. It’s in the injury thread.
  15. It’s going to be Elko. Writing is on the wall.
  16. Our guys were not fucking around tonight. This is borderline erotic. Fuck Oregon.
  17. We’re 10-1 with a 19 point lead at half time. It’s going to be ok.
  18. These MFs came to play tonight
  19. Fuck Kevin Mar
  20. Didn't you notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag?!
  21. What shit poster is he a reincarnation of?
