  1. Is this meant to be impressive? Good lord. I was probably clocked at faster than that this morning going through a HIIT workout with some ex-military friends.
  2. Hey, man, what the fuck?
  3. What’s to add here? Cream rises to the top. If Moore can’t show progress this season, you can bet your sweet ass that Biff will be in the chair from 2026 until he gets too old to do the work.
  4. Ricky Williams fumbled a lot. They seemed to manage through it. If your potentially best RB on the team needs to work through some fumbling issues, you give the guy a shot ton of reps against the UTEPs and SHSUs of the world. So, yeah, I assume we’ll never see him take a meaningful snap again.
  5. Makes sense. I don’t think I’ve seen that dude in years. Please let Florida hire him.
  6. I will immediately regret this, I’m sure, but who is this? I remember pining for Matt Campbell. It would be interesting experiment. He seems really suited for ISU, but maybe he could kill it in the big time. @Al_4_ISU will be by here shortly to tell you why he’s not a fit at Florida and you guys should just forget about him.
  7. This shoulder injury shit is being manufactured out of whole cloth and a bunch of you are falling for it. Anyone doing the “Arch’s Injury *They* Don’t Want You To Know About” article clickthroughs is making some fatass writer money. Anyone giving Brooks Austin “The Film Guy” credence for this kind of conspiracy shit hasn’t followed him long enough. He got ratioed on Twitter for doing this with some other major player that happened to be on Georgia’s schedule last year or the year before.
  8. Huh? He’s been average and overrated for years. He’s not fast enough to get to the edge and not tough enough to run well up the middle. He had a couple of good carries against Michigan and that’s it. He’s had a chance to lock down the starting role for years.
  9. Defensive grades and snap counts spoilered below. Highlights: -Guillory looks really good so far. They don't play legitimate WRs until Auburn, so everyone should pause on anointing him a king, but I doubt anyone in the media will. -They are struggling to get home in the pass rush. -The vaunted DL isn't scoring as well as the hype would suggest. -They're keeping things really tight on who they're letting on the field now. They played 21 guys and the majority of that rotation came with the front 4.
  10. OU offensive grades and snap counts spoilered below. Highlights: -3 of OUs OL starters graded out around 50 or less via PFF. -They tried to only play the five starters on the OL all game, but Fasusi's late injury spoiled that. -They have no running game and limited running talent, outside of Mateer himself. -Michigan blitzed the guy more than 50% of the time and failed to spy while doing so until the late 3rd quarter.
  11. I like me. My wife likes me.
  12. I'm of the opinion at this point that the ESPN FPI is generally a piece of shit and weights unrealistically towards the SEC.
  13. Highlights: -The OL with new roles and new starters, limited in experience, isn't gelling yet. PFF says that several of them are fucking terrible. This will not get fixed or improve. -Fire Flood. -Texas lacks explosive players on offense and will have trouble scoring all year. -Arch Manning throws too many deep balls. -Arch Manning is completing 50% of his deep balls. -The game has caught up and passed the Steve Sarkisian offense by, like it was standing still. -This is not a championship caliber team because of the QB. -This is not a championship caliber team because of the lack of explosive players on offense. -This is not a championship caliber team because of the offensive line and Flood. -This defense isn't stingy enough and apparently gives up too many points. -The TEs are terrible blockers. -Nick Townsend is an awesome blocker.
  14. Boy, you guys handwringing about OU now are not going to like me very much the week of the game. Good lord.
  15. “Wulaw could fuck up a good queso. That cannot be topped.” Wulaw: “Hold my queso salsa!” …Wulaw starts a weekly game thread and starts to mid-game anxiety post on <checks notes> Sunday!
  16. Would you okay with Sydney Sweeney sliding into your bed, naked, every night as well? Dude already told you guys to pound sand on an alleged market-resetting offer. Quick, name the most successful and legendary coach to ever coach at Florida. Name another! Now try that with Ole Miss without being able to insert Kiffin’s name in the first or second slot.
  17. Why the fuck would anyone want to post content in a thread this negative? If you’re going to own setting the weekly tone with the game threads, you have a longer way to go than Texas’ offense in terms of improvement. 2025 Game week 3: Oh no, mommy, the bad men have made mistakes on the field and they’re hurting my feelings!
  18. There are a number of posters on their 247 site working actively to rationalize giving Meyer whatever he’d want to come back. Never mind it being a new era and his approach would need major recalibrating and the bag game is no longer an advantage. The rest of his staff is generally unimpressive. The co-DC calling plays, Roberts, is a known buffoon. He’s the most senior guy they might go to if Sun Belt Billy is shitcanned. People have been dismissive of a 2nd Big 12 team making it but I agree with your points. The more irritating discussion to me is around the ACC just being assumed as getting in 2 teams. That league sucks. They should get their title winner and that’s it.
  19. This UCLA/UNLV game is absurd.
  20. Can the bulk of you idiots keep you in-game reactions contained to, you know, the stupid fucking game threads? I’m going to start encouraging neg attacks and reporting you dolts if you don’t. Fuck. It’s like none of you watch any other games. You should try that. Texas was first rate compared to most favorites facing non-FCS teams.
  21. Michigan is pure asshole and I overrated them severely. Mateer is a good mobile QB who has to be spied. It took 2.5 quarters for Martindale to figure that out. OU took care of business tonight but nothing has changed in my outlook regarding their talent or prospects for the season. Moore will be shitcanned from Michigan before 2027. Just a terrible plan for this game and terrible coaching personnel.
  22. K-YOUUUUUUUUU-GEEERRRRRR! He’s probably yelling that and seeing how many times he can spin around in his office chair without touching the floor. That game was hilarious.
  23. At least Wisner doesn’t have something crazy like a fractured throat.
  24. I thought it was just me over the last decade(s) plus.
