  1. Because scheme has a fuckload to do with things. If this was a team that was just trying to run the ball 45 times a game and pass 15-20 its a totally different protection and personnel setup. Basic football knowledge. Arch needs to jj McCarthy.
  2. It wasn't Florida. It's the whole thing I was supposed to be hands off this season except paying for shit and some marketing and hosting. I'm not dropping the ball everyone else is I'm just letting it hit the floor.
  3. Spot is there still. I'm not gonna do shit for it, I am sure people will be there and there's at least beer whiskey and tequila. The guy who has all the equipment had his truck sideswiped so if he can't bring the stuff then there won't be TVs and shit. Not my fucking problem anymore. It doesn't seem like anyone else cares enough to take it over. It's turnkey and I can just pay out the ticket sales the next week.
  4. the most fucked up part of that segment is that EVERYONE including Sark knows it's the truth.
  5. Meant to put in from timestamp. Edited late. This is a good 5 minutes of your time to watch a guy who knows wtf he's talking about go on a full fucking rage rant.
  6. This year's is going to be crazy enough for it's own thread.
  7. Thumb is different than pinky.
  8. The NFL also has a Playoff where there is a 14 team playoff from 32 teams? The fight to stop expansion doesn't make any sense anymore the more it turns into what you are talking about. For Texas to not be one of the 12 best teams us unacceptable on all levels, same with those other teams. Being left outside looking in like Alabama did is not the end of the world when it's a crowded year, but not being a part of the conversation at all is fucking unacceptable. This team is 1 loss away from that level of unacceptable. Dropping a game leaves very little hope without significant mistakes from others, dropping 2 games Texas won't even finish in the top 25 and will start next season likely unranked and have to battle it's way all the way back as an "underdog" with easily a top 4 Roster $ value and a Top 5 coaching staff $ value. It's not congruent with any expectations and it shouldn't be a thing any of us or any fans in general should be ok with. I don't think that it's people are unhappy with the coach, it's that they aren't losing games like Ole Miss did to Georgia just this weekend or like Georgia lost to Alabama etc. They are losing games to Florida where they look completely fucking incompetent. The Ohio State loss was so incredibly frustrating because it was so obvious how any offense at all and hitting the broad side of a barn with Arch would have resulted in a more respectable loss at least, and a win at best. Kentucky was another completely incompetent game on the offensive side of the ball. The line didn't improve and made some pretty horrific backslides which at this point of the season and with the level of talent and $ invested in the OL it's just not a fucking acceptable answer. The staff makes too much god damned money to trot out a shit product.
  9. Yeah, which was totally a fine position until *checks calendar* 10 months ago. Its a whatever. And a fart in the wind compared to the much larger systemic problems we are facing. The fact that this is dominating this thread is the entire problem with the Democratic party.
  10. No one knows shit. I'd rather be optimistic and wrong than go into the weekend dreading the game.
  11. Yeah, which is why I asked - does anyone know?
  12. I do think the dam breaks if there is one more loss and it's not aggy at the end of the season. This team won't mentally recover from a loss to MS State, Vandy or Arkansas and if one of the first 2 is dropped I think they drop the rest. Sark has built a momentum based team that has no tailwind and can't get off all 4s in the mud. There is no goal except SEC CG and Playoff Berth. If both of those evaporate on the next loss (spoiler: they will) then I think they don't have anything to fall back on and become more lost and lose faith in the staff. Sark and the staff have made a public and likely a private compact that these guys are going to be put in a position to be in the playoffs and compete for championships. If that doesn't happen and it's not because they just got beat (literally beat as in physically couldn't compete) it's pretty easy for this to get ugly fast on coaching. Let's not pretend OU doesn't have a nasty defensive front.

    If we have another sub 200 yard offensive performance we will fly a banner.
  14. Auto correct. Bro hug.
  15. 5-7 in the modern era under a coach who was going 9 wins+ getting fired was pretty fucking not good.
  16. I hope he fucking ruins a linebackers day.
  17. I met a DE/OLB former player this weekend at KoKos Bavarian who was there for the afternoon games and some of the Texas game. He was in full Indiana gear and I yelled "this guy has been waiting for this his whole life" he came over and we bro hugged and he told me his story about how he's loved the program for so long and how great it is to be excited about it. Being an Indiana fan has to be awesome right now.
  18. I mean it's almost a certainty this dude has killed people and at some point wasn't just doing it because it was his duty to country.
  19. TBH I think this is why everyone is all toxic and fucked up. Its not anything you are doing wrong to be clear. When your Texas Football experience is just the game from your couch and getting on surly to bitch about it, what is there to look forward to? What happened to people making plans around the game with people they like from the Longhorn fandom even for Away games. What happened to wanting to tailgate and afterparty? Part of the entire college football experience to me isn't just going to the game waiting forever to leave your parking spot and feeling however the game went. Its about the entire day - the band, the pageantry, the friends, the heckling of the other team, the big plays, the roar of the crowd, things like singing the eyes. If you are skipping all the good parts all the time, of course there's nothing to look forward to, it's just like kicking yourself in the nuts over and over again. @YChang came and joined us at KoKos and we watched the same game y'all watched, but it was a roller coaster of emotion and a final victory that I'll remember. Another buddy of mine got a picture of me in full disappointment after they tied it with the caption "TFW Kentucky ties it" I'm not telling anyone how to do anything, but maybe the problem with why you hate everything all the time is the way you are setting things up to hate everything all the time. We aren't gonna get the greatest show on turf this year - that's not the identity of this team even when it's firing on all cylinders. This team if it gets its act together is going to score points and have wins like OU at best. That was still fantastic. There's a lot of schedule left and a lot of fun games left after MS State. Vandy at home is projected by revelxp tent sales to be one of the biggest morning games ever in Austin (if the people show up). Arkansas is the renewal of a rivalry that hasn't happened here since 2008. TAMU hasn't played here since 2011 and was the hottest ticket outside of TX@tOSU the entire year. A night game with nothing else going on because it's holiday time. There are LOTS of people that are making this about a lot more than the team.

  21. Good thing this guy was the pitmaster at franklins and then la BBQ when they were rippin'. He knows 'que and about to gift it to the ATL.
  22. The complete lack of optimism clouds people and they project things that aren't there.
