  1. If that was all you said you wouldn't have gotten pushback.
  2. You are comparing us to Baylor. That is just asinine. Now you are aggyesque changing the topic because you realize you were being stupid.
  3. No. You just made an incredibly stupid comment. So I threw back facts against your nonsense. I have a low tolerance for total bs like you posted. And then one about Baylor's conference titles was even more stupid. Your comment quoted above wouldn't have gotten that reaction.
  4. Texas recruiting took a hit when Mack got complacent after winning the title and then drove off a cliff when Charley Strong took over coupled with the CFP elevating Ohio St., Alabama, UGA and Clemson so they could pick off players anywhere in the country. It wasn't so much the whole SEC.
  5. The UNC shooting seems to have put everything on ice for the time being. Now its hard to get the presidents together.
  6. Murder, rape. 14 wins in your first 14 years in the Big 12. Yes, we are delighted we are not Baylor.
  7. Just like Big Game Bob usually flopped in the big games on a national stage, Mack Brown always found a Robert in his conference, ACC or Big 12, who was a better coach than him.
  8. Well it might also be SEC champ Texas vs. AAC champ Rice and Big 12 champ TCU vs. ACC champ SMU!
  9. Don't be stupid. You sound like aggy now. You ignored early Fred Akers, Mack Brown, Dana Bible and several others. And even DKR had three 6-4 seasons in a row. Everybody is up and down. Look at Alabama prior to Saban, worse than the late Mack/Strong/Hermann years at UT. Look at Notre Dame in the 24 years between Holtz and Brian Kelly. Look at the era Michigan just recovered from. Look at USC.
  10. Yeah. You are being a dick about it. Oklahoma St. has a better conference record than Texas since the TCU/WVU additions. The 120 years of college football before the last 12 years do matter.
  11. That's ok for coaches. They are supposed to be partisans.
  12. That's not fair. Iowa did get into the 20s in 5 games last year and even scored 33 vs. Northwestern. It was only 6 games they scored 14 or less! They were only #123 in points per game. They scored more than UMass or NMSU!
  13. Its a fair question, but they are still Texas schools playing. And KSU/TCU and Baylor/OSU ccgs annihilated the ACC and Pac 12 ccgs the last two years, last year equaling the other two combined and in 2021 beating them combined. In 2021 the AAC Cincinnati/Houston ccg even beat the ACC ccg. Last year they weren't even far behind the SEC and Big 10 audiences.
  14. Did some sand aggie piss in your beer? Nobody knows how the transfer portal will work out. But big programs are losing a lot of quality depth. And bringing in some good players. Ohio St. did lose Joe Burrow--to LSU. We could have used some of the QBs were have lost over the years. Georgia has lost a bunch of players-including one of our starting WRs. Of course they also lost a really talented backup TE to Nebraska who just got arrested for robbing a vape store. UGA picked up JT Daniel from USC. Lost him to WVU who lost him to Rice. We will now be playing JT for the 3rd time-once with USC, once with WVU and now with Rice.
  15. FSU's board seems to think they have a way out before 2036.
  16. They were. https://theathletic.com/3904973/2022/11/16/cfp-expansion-revenue-rose-bowl/ Article is dated November 16th, 2022. Its just bad faith and greed by Sankey and Petitti. Its the same bs from commissioners that nearly killed the expansion to 12 teams before the end of the contract.
  17. '77 always comes to mind. After Texas lost the Cotton Bowl to ND, they dropped from 1 to 4 in the final poll, behind Arkansas who they beat in Fayetteville. Kentucky dropped to #6 behind Penn St. who they beat in Happy Valley. All the top 6 had 1 loss. Going into the bowls, #2 OU and #6 Arkansas had lost only to Texas. Don't get me started about 2008!
  18. So call them the A4 (autonomous). And we still aren't sure the Pac 12, 10, 8, 4 Pac isn't dead yet. Close, but still a weak pulse.
  19. Auburn, UK and Florida are probably all down. Let's put it this way. Charley Strong might even take that Georgia team to a 10-0 start. Kirby Smart probably could have taken one of Charley Strong's Texas teams to a 10-0 start with that schedule.
  20. Then the committee will always rank the G5 champ #16.
  21. Alabama and several other SEC and Big 10 teams do this.
  22. The "Best 12" is nothing but bs. Nobody knows until you play it on the field. Remember 2014? Everyone was sure Alabama and Oregon were the top 2. Ohio St./TCU/Baylor were 3-4-5. FSU had to get in because they were the only unbeaten. FSU lost 59-20 to Oregon. Ohio St. beat Alabama. TCU won 42-3 over the only team to beat Alabama in the regular season. And then Ohio St. beat Oregon in the title game. TCU dropped from 3rd to 6th in the final ranking after beating Iowa St. 55-3. The committee might as well just pull out the 247 recruiting rankings. That's pretty much how they pick teams. I thought it would be better than the BCS, but its worse. You've got groupthink with a few people dominating the conversation. We need autobids so we have concrete criteria. Teams that actually accomplish something get rewarded. Teams that can't finish any better than 5th in the SEC or Big 10 don't make it? So what? Finish better than 5th in your own conference!!! I think its bs that teams with losing records in conference play get into the NCAA bb tourney. We don't need those teams.
  23. The autobids and first round bye automatically make your ccg more valuable. There's even talk about giving UC/UH/UCF/BYU less than P5 shares for the next couple of years. Just sounds unbelievably greedy. Its a really, really bad look for an industry that already looks that way. Especially with the massive money coming from the CFP and the massive raises the SEC and Big 10 just got. Some of the presidents just need to slap Sankey and Pettiti, the way the presidents read the riot act to the commissioners sabotaging the expansion to 12.
  24. https://sports.yahoo.com/sources-acc-presidents-to-meet-on-conference-expansion-on-monday-night-173527541.html Maybe they are getting ready for Tuesday: "ACC presidents are scheduled to meet on a call Monday evening to discuss and potentially take action on expanding to add Cal, Stanford and SMU, sources tell Yahoo Sports. Three weeks of deep exploration into the three-team expansion plan appears to be at its end, with a determination coming from the meeting or soon afterward. The league needs support from 12 of 15 members to pass the expansion proposal. Over the last several days, momentum has been building in support of expansion — a change from 2 1/2 weeks ago. In a straw poll of presidents Aug. 9, an expansion vote fell at least one vote short of passing. There were four dissenters: Florida State, Clemson, North Carolina and NC State. Notre Dame receives a vote as the 15th member and supports expansion...."
  25. At one point it was reported that all the Pac 10 had conversations. Doesn't mean any of it was more than quick informational calls.
