  1. Vandy's going to try to slow the game down and hold onto the ball. The option is always dicey to play against since few teams run it. We need to figure out how to run the ball consistently since Quinn is still dicey with his decisions and pocket presence. I think this will be a lot closer than we would like. Ultimately, our defense will carry us through. 
    Yes, they play ball control and don't turn it over often. We simply have to prevent first downs when they're on offense. Should be simple, right? right?
  2. I'll tell you about OU

    It seems they're headed down the same path we traveled after shitcanning MB.

    Of course since they're in the SEC instead of Rig12 recruiting won't suffer like ours did. That may or may not mean wandering the wilderness as long as we did, but the weekly competition is better in the SEC as well, no in season scrimmages.

    Really it depends on VB's hire at OC panning out. Not just in X's and 0's, but building momentum in recruiting as well.

    I wish all of them the worst luck possible, we need at least a decade of dominance in Dallas so they can't close the W/L gap of the historic series.

  3. I’d be surprised if the “ask” of the university to identify bottle throwers was anything more than a stab in the dark (not actually expecting anyone to be identified) or just a “wink, wink” request.  
    University will just say “we tried, oh lord how we tried…. But the video is just too grainy to be certain.”   Pay the money, move on
    That might be the case if it werent for Tennessee fans doing the same thing a couple years back. Same $250k fine, and bottle throwers were banned for the rest of the year.
  4. How about fining SEC officials for being incompetent and creating the situation in the first place?

    I thought Rig12 officiating had no peers in any other conference, but from what I've seen so far the SEC zebras are just as bad if not worse.

    At least they don't take quite as long in attempting to straighten out their fuckups, and I must give them credit for being consistent in not calling holding. We got away with some, Georgia got away with some. Having said that, I think in this particular game we would have benefitted from them being sticklers about holding on the O-lines. Georgias O-line isn't anything special, but they look pretty good when they can clothesline our edge rushers with impunity.


  5. I think they just saw him either flopping or laying on the ground and assumed he got hit.
    They do indeed suck, but it wasnt exactly in an unfavorable way if we're honest. How many times have we had a bullshit call overturned in the Rig12?

  6. Message board posters.  Tell me again, in the bigger picture of things, what was actually lost tonight? 
    If the answer if some pride and the number 1 ranking, we'll get that back within a couple weeks. 
    Will we? This is a team that got schooled by Bama who lost to bottom feeder Vandy and Tenner.
  7. I dunno, my dude. Those Mack Brown losses to to Bob nice and cooked dicks Stoops were far more embarrassing. We had superior talent and still lost by 6 TD's on the regular until post-2004
    We didn't have superior talent to Georgia. If anything it was even and we got whipped on the line most plays.

  8. Getting butt fucked tonight when we went all in on recruiting for this game is not the end of the world.
     
    Seriously though, we lost to Kansas and still ended up with the third ranked recruiting class. This loss isn’t as catastrophic as it feels right now, at least when it comes to recruiting. 
    Fuck that, we got embarrassed at home in front of a shitload of recruits. If anything that was an advertisement for the figtin' Kirby's.
  9. Absolutely fucking not. Saying it ironically to make fun of this conference is fine. Saying after Texas accomplishes something? Ha Ha Ha. We'll celebrate ourselves, not a bunch of hangers on, thank you very much. 
    Big12 title game was a good place for it, and also against select SEC teams (aggy, maybe pig) but NOT while playing B1G, ACC or even ex Rig12 schools other than maybe tortilla tech...but hopefully they would need to be good enough to make the playoffs before we face them ever again.
  10. I used to get the beginning stages of mild depression after 6 games because that meant the end of the season was near...but Holy Fuck there's a ton of football left to be played....
    I'm at the same place, can't believe I was actually against expanding the playoffs.

    Actually I'm still against it and maintain 8 is the perfect expansion number. Just hope it doesn't go past 12 or the sense of accomplishment and exclusivity will be totally gone.

  11. I'm glad Texas is in the league. I heard so much anti-SEC stuff from my Texas friends and acquaintances that I think it's hilarious you're here now. 
     
    That won't change now that we're SEC ourselves. Conference just provides a schedule to play, other than that we don't have much use for them.

  12. Quinn is currently having his best season ever stat wise.
    Not unless he left all the rust on the Cotton Bowl turf. He has to get back to that pre-injury ease with which he saw the whole field and distributed the ball efficiently.

    Yes, some of that was made easier by the competition, but playing like he did Saturday would have made the ULM and UTSA tighter games than they were, and I don't think Michigan's D is that bad either....or not much worse than OU if we're honest.
