  1. I think a 2nd tournament makes way too much sense.
  2. I rebuilt a bunch of stuff and hopefully that fixed it.
  3. My wife said we can have a party at my house in Zilker for the Cheezit Citrus Bowl. Everything will be CheezIt flavored/themed. I need to come up with a cheezit BBQ recipe. Gonna do 3-4 apps, 2 cocktails (whiskey and tequila), 2 mains, 2 desserts Help me come up with recipes and stuff. Also an open invite to anyone on Surly. BYOB and toss me a few bones for food if you come.
  4. Didn't do Burnt Ends and IDK what his deal is. Guy was always a potato with us and never any fun, nor did he look like he got along with the rest of the guys. He got "hurt" and decided to opt-out when it was clear they weren't gonna go to the playoffs it seemed. Seems like a really ego driven guy who has some potential, but who knows? IDK, but it would seem to me that Baxter would be invited to stay and play a whatever or significantly diminished role, but wouldn't get anywhere near the compensation or playing time or focus he would get from moving on. This one is a shitty one in the new world because I feel like he did a great job being a leader and a positive voice/example in the locker room.
  5. did they ever find it?
  6. Lol dude come on
  7. Idk man the checks still clear.
  8. Co-conspirator?
  9. It really sucks that an injury robbed him of a year and then this year wasn't good enough for him to pursue his dream even if it was a low rated draft pick. I don't know if he's wasting his time, obviously he's not gonna go from Texas to another CFP team - if he goes to G5 then has a good season maybe he'll get drafted? Sucks all around cuz he's a great dude who got freak injured.
  10. Exit interview probably pretty fucking sad. Really sucks, but he won't be the answer and because of that he probably wants to find playing time somewhere where he will be.
  11. Knock it off. This is a racist behavior that isn't about a disrespect angle. This is about someone who doesn't like black people. That's it. It's that simple.
  12. i can't reproduce any of this on my ios devices. Does changing themes help?
  13. They also blew their schedule out. As did Texas Tech - I saw an insane stat they won by 20+ more than any other team since like before wwii
  14. No one on this board goes on racist rants bro?
  15. This is untrue. Revshare has completely legalized pay for play. I really dont get the "but the practices" angle. What the fuck are they going to practice? A lot of these teams are gonna change scheme and make major adjustments in the offseason and have entirely different personnel. I don't understand denying players the reward, but let's stop making this "bowl games make teams better next year" argument please for the love of fuck.
  16. My wife tried this and I shut it down immediately. Was trying to get in and out for under 1500 didn't wanna turn it into a 7500 trip. Stop living in the past old man. This isn't how things are anymore. Sark is right, that's what it used to be about. It's not about that anymore and it's pretty obvious to everyone and it'll become obvious to him once he goes to his first bowl in 3 seasons this year.
  17. There's a lot of things about CFB that are just not right because there's too many stupid people involved and too much money injected too quickly without any thought. Its gone fully corporate and management consulty in the span of less than 5 years. ESPN and the current contract terms and conference structures and media rights are stupid at a fundamental level. The bending and changing of the rules to fit into TV timeslots also happened significantly faster than people realize and it has changed the entire strategy of games and how they are played, especially from behind. The players without collective bargaining and without any restrictions are in a weird power dynamic with athletic departments and coaches. Coaches are fucked because it's a lot more than coaching and recruiting now. It's about all kinds of crazy shit. Everything about CFB is mainly stupid because of the stupid people who still live in the old world
  18. I am saying move the entire bowl schedule including the good ones up and leave just the playoffs and stuff late.
  19. This thread is for discussion of bowl related things, not necessarily the upcoming game and how Texas is impacted/involved.
  20. Bump this is for talk about this years bowl matchup specifically
  21. The problem with bowl games now is that the post season feels completely manufactured and meaningless when there's a meaningful postseason still going on on the other side. Extra practices aren't as meaningful as some of you guys are projecting them to be on the higher end P4 teams especially the SEC and B1G teams. The transfer portal is also massive, a lot of guys will use the bowl as a way to put things on tape and get more money or transfer out etc. Its just a completely misaligned incentive/reward structure. Answer me this. Who are bowl games for? I think the bowl games used to be for the teams as a reward - get swag, a trip, do fun stuff etc. Now I think the bowls are only for the money. This is why they suck now.
  22. You doubt people will want to watch bowl games next weekend? Are you fucking high?
