  1. I’m almost certain Sark did an interview with Texas reporters the week of the championship game.
  2. Texas at 3 and FSU at 4 would be weird if they’re going for the most deserving angle. Undefeated teams would technically be most deserving unless you want to also slide a bit of eye test in there. Then they might as well put bama at 4 because Plummer does not play for Washington, Texas, Michigan or Bama.
  3. The problem with the “best” is that it takes a lot of eye test into account. They fell flat on their face putting Oregon in front of both Texas and Bama. There was plenty of evidence for Texas/Bama but somehow completion percentage was in play? Having bama jump over an undefeated FSU would make them look stupid imo. They’re going with more deserving so they can save face. Maybe they will go full out “deserving” and put the undefeated teams ahead of us and in return we can kick the shit out of Michigan.
  4. I think if Ewers were to be playing for an air raid team, his poor mechanics and inconsistencies reading the defense wouldn’t matter. Instead Sark runs a deeper playbook that utilizes more than simple reads and Ewers is having to actually learn how to be a complete quarterback. I’m not sure if Ewers will ever live up to his rating coming out of high school and that is fine imo. At least we are seeing him continually getting better even tho it may not be as fast as some would like. If he comes back next year, there’s no reason to think that he can’t turn the flashes we see this year into regulars in ‘24.
  5. Because recruiting classes and their rankings are mostly about perception, and that is all they have left from the jimbo era that resembles some kind of success. Without the greatest class ever signed in college football staying and not transferring out, everything dollar spent was for nothing. Aggie actually believes by keeping the class together with the same defensive staff, they will somehow come out of this “okay”. It literally took Sark, with a better overall staff than a Aggie, a season and two full off-seasons to get the Herman era players playing up to their potential. Jimbo wasn’t the problem defensively and whoever replaces him will need a miracle to fix his Oline travesty.
  6. He’s got better in that area since last year but there’s still room for plenty of improvement. He had another self sack against tech when all he had to do was hit Sanders wide open underneath. At least Ewers is checking it down more this year. I think something else the scouts want to see is more complete games from him. Weirdly, when Ewers starts off a little rattled he usually finishes strong (OU and Iowa st being examples).
  7. No Stoops is on you. God just did the opposite because you put Christmas second.
  8. No way that is true. It’s reads like desperation for fans trying to cope that they didn’t have the money or the attraction to pull a big name with every coach worth a damn saying no. Fisch is close to a Stoops but at least Stoops has multiple 10 win seasons and won’t bolt at the first sign of success. Plain and simple they settled and can’t face reality.
  9. How do they think the depth in the interior is coming along?
  10. I have loved the strides he’s made since 2021. There wasn’t a ton of people, myself included, that could have predicted what he’s done so far. With that said, I think he seems better when out there with Sweat/Murphy. He can still struggle in holding up in the run game against a decent Oline. Right now he’s at his best on passing downs. I’m not sure how well we would hold up next year with him and Trill being the main guys, especially if Collins decides to leave. The thing is tho, Broughton has gotten better each year so who’s to say he can’t take that next step in the run game in ‘24.
  11. That last bullet point is a total cluster fuck
  12. At times Ewers struggles with the deep ball but I think we all should recognize that he elevates his receivers with his arm strength, a la the deep outs from the opposite hash. Worthy is a damn good route runner and sells that particular route really well, but it means nothing if he doesn’t have a QB that can make the throw consistently.
  13. The argument that Ewers is only looks good because of the talent surrounding him can basically be said about all the current top teams outside of Daniels, Maye and Williams (he’s cooled of here recently tho). Penix is a 6th year guy and has a super talented wr core around him and a good RB. Nix is also 30 years old and leads the nation with 65%(!!!) of his passing yards coming after the catch. Michigan didn’t throw a pass last week after the half, Ewers could do that. I’ve seen nothing from the Florida st, Ohio st or Georgia QB’s that screams elite. Does Ewers need to get better in some areas of his game if he wasn’t to succeed at the next level? Yes. But the notion that he can’t continue to progress is absurd. He’s night and day different from last year. It’s funny that the same people who were done with him last year and screaming for Malik are now spouting we should move on and let Arch take the keys.
  14. The race definitely made up for the lackluster feeling I had. That was a fun race to watch. Surprise result from Ocon.
  15. Everything leading up to this race has felt manufactured or just simply not executed well and it’s missing that “race feel.” The drivers seem like they want this to be over with already.
  16. Ewers and the Oline were trying to see who could fuck up the worst in the first half. Kudos to both for getting it together for the second half. Ewers made some nice throws and Oline blocked excellent down the stretch.
  17. That’s a gutsy win..fuck yeah! Hook’em 🤘
  18. Dumb. Lsu fan calls Omaha their “north campus” although Texas has appeared the most at 39 times. Also, could you imagine if Texas or any other blue blood baseball program had the owner of a baseball company be an alumnus? If Lsu doesn’t have the number 1 class for extended part of the future, there’s a problem.
