  1. Yeah. It was a Baylor special.
  2. And he might also regress next year. I haven't seen anything showing that he is learning. We'll see.
  3. Its a REALLY negative board. I don't spend too much time on it during the game.
  4. He must have tuned in to Surly for his playcalling in the 4th. Y'all were calling for Bijan right, Bijan left, Roschon up the middle.😀
  5. Well Ewers could have gotten rid of the ball. He had 2 chances. He DID get rid of the ball, but not in a good way.
  6. The defensive line looked good the first quarter, but the pass rush disappeared the 2nd quarter.
  7. He's got the football sense of a HS freshman. Chewing out his lineman in the middle of the field? After his own bonehead safety play?
  8. He was late (or Ewers early). The ball zipped by before he got his hands together. I'm still not clear what sport this is that you can tackle receivers anywhere on the field.
  9. Oregon and Washington are well ahead of the rest of the pack from their top finishes, even if their average isn't quite as separated from the pack. Going back to 1968 (when AP began consistently ranking more than just the top 10), 20 schools have 5 or more top 5 finishes. Nobody else more than 3 (and only Pitt, ASU and UCLA even have 3). Oregon has 6, same as LSU, Auburn and Tennessee. Washington and the much degraded Colorado program have 5. You, of course, mentioned all the ones with more than 6 (the 8 blue bloods, PSU, FSU, Miami, Florida, Clemson, UGA). All of these schools but Tennessee have 3 or more top 3 finishes. Tennessee has 2. Outside those 20, only Pitt and TCU have 2. In fact, there are only 14 top 3 finishes in 54 years that are not one of those 20 schools. Those 20 have 52 of the 54 AP MNCs in that period (Pitt and BYU the outliers). Now Oregon and UW don't have AP titles, but UW has a coaches title. Those 20 (but excluding Colorado now) are the only schools who are a serious threat to finish #1 in any given year. Minnesota is not 3rd tier anymore. They were a blue blood at one point in time, but 1967 was their last really good year. Except for Pitt, the rest of your 3rd tier has no more than 2 top 5 finishes since 1968 and combined only 6 top 3 finishes. Just not on the same level as UW and Oregon.
  10. Cancelling Coastal Carolina didn't surprise me, but UVA-VT being cancelled was a surprise. Could be used to honor the dead. And really, life goes on after tragedies.
  11. Plus a 40-13 loss to Tennessee at home. USC lost by 1 to #14 Utah and beat ranked UCLA and Oregon St. You are really bad at facts.
  12. Yeah. LSU ahead of USC and Tennessee is ridiculous (for those of you who don't remember, Tennessee beat them 40-13 in Baton Rouge mid-season). I'd rate Clemson ahead of them. Clemson, besides having one less loss actually beat Florida St.
  13. So The Game is on Fox at 11 am Saturday. Are you referring to Cal-Stanford or Harvard-Yale? What channel is Ohio St.-Michigan on?
  14. With Washington and Oregon on the fringe of "near blue blood."
  15. One of the things I don't like about divisionless.
  16. I don't like it, but I agree. They will all go that way. Think 6 conferences have already committed to single division by 2023. Big 10, SEC, MAC and Sun Belt are the holdouts.
  17. Some other relevant comparisons: David McWilliams 11-11 John Mackovic 11-10-1 Darrell K. Royal 14-7-1 Fred Akers 18-4 Mack Brown 17-5 Sark is NOT like the latter group.
  18. He's regularly late to scheduled TV shows? That is not normal, responsible behavior. Its not a joke. He's got some sort of issues. (note-I'm taking the poster's word that he is regularly late).
  19. given that we really didn't rough the punter and almost blocked it and our offense did zero all day, not a bad risk. It turned out bad because of Big 12 refs and a flop by the punter, but it wasn't a bad call.
  20. If the players aren't executing, 1) the coach needs them better prepared; 2) the coach needs to bench them; and/or 3) the coach needs to call something they can execute. All 3 are on the coach if it lasts the whole game. And then we stalled and got no points.

    Who is next?

    I guess the other Kelly is too old to want to move again.
  22. bullet

    Who is next?

    Sure makes it look like a really short list. Patterson is too old and Gundy with his mullet is all Okie St. So Aranda or Chip Kelly.
  23. bullet

    Who is next?

    And Sark would be 3-7 coaching UNC.
  24. bullet

    Who is next?

    Well McWilliams was totally unproven. Mackovic was exactly what he was before. So was Mack Brown-very good but almost always 2nd place. Strong was unproven. Herman was just like he was before. Sark appears to be just like he was before. Maybe we should hire somebody with some history, who at least has been very good before. We keep betting on finding the next DKR, someone relatively young who will be something different than their history would suggest. We're TEXAS. We don't need to gamble on a coach. We can hire someone proven.
