It’s posts like this that make me think, “maybe ignore makes the most sense here”.
I don’t give one fuck about attribution in some thing no one knows about besides 3-4 people here. “aggypedia”? Who fucking cares or knows about this? That’s randolph duke shit
“kind of” means you weren’t telling the whole fucking story.
Your personal nicknames for random shit makes your posts generally indecipherable.
This isn’t the aggie thread. Some of this is becoming bandwidth drain.
He’s in the doghouse for coach extraordinaire Demarco Murray. They think he’s a goldbricker. The emergence of Blaylock has empowered them to bury him on the depth chart. There’s an article on Sooners Illustrated arguing that Ott is key without Mateer, but I’m not sure if Murray actually reads SI or not.
Kind of. Although, I have to say, I still don’t know who in the fuck “talkie bird” is.
That Friday night, ATM announced an emergency board of regents meeting for the following Monday. The topic publicly stated for the meeting was something like “to discuss conference options for Texas ATM athletics”.
At the time, there was no exit fee in the SEC. So ATM was implying that they might actually consider leaving for greener pastures, which was laughable.
Sankey called them the following morning and told them “get right or get fucked”. Get to closing or hit the fucking bricks, dummies. ATM, bluff called, sent Liucci and his cronies out to spin from there.
I had two friends directly involved on the Texas end narrating this shit in real time. I relayed it to this board as it unfolded, with a breakdown of where this was headed that Friday night after those rubes played their perceived ace in the hole.
It wasn’t hard to know what was coming. We’d seen it plenty. Rooting for OU only made you end up feeling like an idiot, or should have. You sound like one of the guys trying to reason with us that day at BW3. Just wrong and confused and rationalizing anyway. Wrong wrong wrong.
Never cheer for OU, ever. If OU is playing the Taliban, I’m wearing a turban or whatever the fuck garb they’ve got going. If Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao and Mussolini have been summoned by Satan on the opposing sidelines to lead the charge against the sooners, I’m face painted with a pentagram and swearing allegiance to the Prince of Darkness.
Never cheer for OU.
That's interesting about the TD being worth 5. I didn't know that. I assumed the same as you regarding the reasons for more safeties.
That's really cool.
JFC. I looked up the Liberty Bowl and Music City Bowl results, looked up Texas vs Memphis (we've never played them) and even MTSU (never played them either) and thought "what am I forgetting?". At no point did Vanderbilt even register in my head and I've walked their freaking campus.
Texas has, in fact, played 5 times, as far as I can now tell, in the state of Tennessee. Texas is 1-4 in those games, with the 4 losses coming in 1899, 1905, 1906, and 1925. The win, as mentioned, came last year in 2024.
Some things that interested me after glancing at Winsipedia regarding opponents for 2026:
-We now have a losing record against Ohio State and that needs to be righted.
-2-0 versus UTSA, which is the same record Texas currently has against Florida.
-Missouri:
--18-9-1 against Missouri, but 16-2 against them since 1930.
--Texas played 4 exhibition games against Missouri in 1896 in Laredo, Monterrey, and Mexico City and lost all 4 of them.
--They played two random games against Missouri in 1907 and 1916, losing both of them with some of the weirdest scores ever - 5-4 and 3-0. How many CFB games have finished with a score of 5-4?
--The 2011 loss as they left the conference still pisses me off with the shittiness of their field and the injuries incurred during that loss.
-Finally righted the wrongs of the Sherrill series against Miss State with the pummeling last year and the 1999 Cotton Bowl. Need more of that with the series now at 3-2 for Texas.
-6-1 against Ole Miss with another late Mack loss being the blemish.
-9-8-1 against LSU with the last matchup being Zero Blitz from Todd Orlando and LSU's "greatest college football team of all time" needing to cheat with fake injuries while getting idiotic playcalls and dropped end zone passes from the fighting Tom Hermans to get out of an un-air conditioned Austin with a single score win.
-64-51-5 against the okies; 77-37-5 against the aggies; 57-23 against the pigs.
-Texas has never played a football game in Tennessee as far as I can tell, so this will be a first. 2-1 against the vols, all in Dallas. These two haven't played against one another since 1968, so it will have been 58 years by the time they hit the field next year.
Venables told the media yesterday that both Javonnie Gibson (WR from UAPB) and Eli Bowen (starting soph CB) have been practicing and both will be playing against Kent State next week. So while they do lose Mateer, which is huge, two major expected contributors will be expected to play, if not start, against Texas on 10/11.
What idiot is saying that? That's one of the dumbest repeated sentiments in the entirety of sports discussions across the globe and particularly in football.
Here's Sun Belt Billy talking today about his outlook for the week and beyond.
Highlights:
-They need to get healthy.
-No offensive scheme or playcalling changes.
-Lagway practiced yesterday.
-They're installing plays and personnel for more than just Texas, also ATM and Miss State. That's smart work, there, Billy. Don't sweat winning the game right in front of you.
Yeah, a friend of mine from the old site texted me an NIL question last year when the DE was pulling his stunt on y'all, as he is a Texas State alum who had some involvement. I know what he wanted sounded like a lot, but it was going rate for an above average Edge. I don't think players get an extra year just because their coach leaves, though.
Short memories, huh?
Jeff Lebby, piece of human shit that he is, played a key role in institutionalizing rape enablement for the football program at Baylor. When the daylight started to hit what those motherfuckers were doing, he was one of most aggressive deniers and Art Briles apologists in this entire debacle. Not only is he an okie shittalker from way back, he supports the rape of young women and then threatening them if they dare speak up. Fuck him, fuck Baylor, fuck OU and fuck Mississippi State for hiring him.
Mon Amie Gabi went sideways after the pandemic and then also raised prices. Used to go religiously for brunch, twice a year, once on each visit. Haven’t been there in 2 years and not going next week either. Fuck skimping on quality while raising prices.
Well, I was wrong about no repeats, obviously. I like what I see, nonetheless.
My logic for what I did think we’d see was rooted in this, though. Were the big prize for home games for all of these SEC backwater programs.
Okay, I’ll go. Not a doctor but just experienced first hand some trauma for someone right in the same body region.
My middle son just broke his forearm at the wrist in the most Tim Krumrie/Joe Theisman fashion possible. Nothing but skin and tendon holding his hand to his body. 11 Y0 in warmups for his first tackle football game ever. Gruesome shit they wouldn’t replay on a telecast.
Took the ER room with 4 people to make 4 attempts before successfully resetting it, per an ER doc. We weren’t in there while they did it. That was on a Friday night. The recommended orthopedist saw us on Monday morning, he had surgery with a pin placement on Tuesday, and they put him in a hard cast 8 days later. That was last Wednesday. If everything is okay, he gets the cast removed in 3 more weeks and then has 2-4 weeks of rehab and can go back to baseball and basketball if he’s pain free.
Anyone saying Mateer will be back in 3-4 weeks is completely full of shit. Bet the over.
Thamel is reporting a broken hand and recovery will take a month. Sounds optimistic on recovery.
He's only the guy that started against Texas last year.
Several guys allegedly connected to the program on Sooners Illustrated are saying it's a torn ligament and out 8-10 weeks. The quotes from Venables indicate optimism for a return "sometime this season".
Sucks for Mateer, great for us.
People keep saying this, but usually thumb surgery is a pretty big deal. I'm not saying out for the season, but coming back in less than 3 weeks and being functional? That's a hell of a recovery.
Unlike this season, next year's "cupcakes" aren't exactly scrubs. UTSA and Texas State are good non-P4 programs if those two coaches remain at each spot. May not mean a ton for the mouse, but I doubt either game is relegated to SECN+, so it's something.
Fuck the college football world if they can't take a joke. I'll take the wins however they come. No one deserves more shit being shoveled in their face than OU. They just fucking overtly cheated in the game in which he got injured. Karma is a motherfucker.
