  1. Holy shit that conversation is a perfect illustration of the logical fallacies the typical Aggy and other rubes live off of, and they simply don't see it. Reading it is almost akin to watching an alien lifeform behind a glass barrier and seeing it do some unexplainable shit.
  2. I'm glad Sark saw the lack of physicality too and is taking it personally (I hope). I wasn't too disappointed by what I saw against Rice other than their lack of physicality on offense which really stood out to me. They seemed shell shocked that a team was being eager to come at them, the OL, TEs and WRs looked like they wished they could play the game without violent contact. All else be damned, if they're not chomping at the bit for contact in Tuscaloosa we're looking at a repeat of @Arky
  3. LSU has an Oghuofo on defense? Oh damn that's Ovie, had no idea he was still playing
  4. Just imagine not having Taaffe for the first half vs Bama... I shudder to think
  5. Looks like a team leadership issue to me, I don't see any guys on offense acting or playing like they want to be badasses
  6. SEC schools are going to lean into the Southern Christian culture and iconography more and more as it relates to certain real or perceived political climates, especially with parents of recruits from those areas. We try to keep things apolitical on these boards but that's not the case with other SEC coaches and fan bases. Small towns throughout the American south are built around Church/God, Football, Family; culture and politics will damn sure be real factors in recruiting against Texas. It really doesn't matter if the locker room is full of delinquents and cancers, for a religious parent on a visit concerned for their child's development future, a coach saying all the familiar phrases and relatable 'faith' quips is a real panacea. Fortunately we should be able to pull enough talent regardless, but I'm interested to see where the UT football staff goes in the future to counter; more "God" sprinkled in during visits and texts, or more emphasis on west and northeast talent pools?
  7. If you're not standing in line at noon to see Bert Auburn something is seriously wrong with you
  8. He is older and should be stronger at this point. It's anecdotal either way however, and the RB 1v1 LB video posted recently showed Brooks getting ragdolled by Blackwell, which is part of what formed my perspective. If reports say otherwise that's good to hear
  9. My main concern with Brooks is blitz pickup and overall pass blocking. Roschon was really good there and Bijan worked on that hard after his freshman season. We are going to take a serious step back there to start the season I expect. Considering how many times the backs were called upon to assist the OL in passing situations, and we STILL gave up play breaking pressure on Ewers, I don't think the passing game will become elite until a #1 rb emerges that will do it all at least at above average levels. Vision, ball security, hands, and blocking. That said, I expect that guy to be Baxter over Brooks maybe by mid season or towards the end of the season
  10. Don't call me a linguist, but I think there is a tradition in the English language to modify the pronunciation of the word in these cases to help differentiate the word's given role. Such as dom•en•ayt and dom•en•uht... Deev•e•ayt and deev•e•uht Helps greatly in making it all less irritating
  11. He doesn't mean 'to dominate' Being a dominate force and a dominant force are both acceptable to say. That's his point. Let's move on already
  12. Two minutes isn't a lot of time, and I'm just on the shitter anyway but, that was the most pointless 2 minute click in a long time
  13. Selling Norwex on Zoom might be stretching the term "gainful employment" a little bit
  14. An "allahu akbar" chant at DKR would be epic
  15. Oh God, I hadn't thought about the "SEC ready" reports that are coming.
  16. That's his way of shitting down his leg. It's cowardice and mental freezing, and vs Arky he would have taken as many or more sacks. I'm not saying Card had anything defensible of his performance, but shit, Quinn isn't an "unflappable" guy, he's a fake it till you make it type that sees his first pass broken up and nearly picked and then every pass afterward is an abomination downstream of his scared shitless reaction. The overthrows, throwaways, and off balance deliveries happen because he's fucking scared
  17. Imagine if it had been Quinn last year starting on the road vs Arky with that crowd and energy holy fucking shit. If any fan of college football is wondering what a QB actively shitting down both legs looks like, we're seeing it with Ewers this season.
  18. You can just see the picks coming as we get desperate
  19. It's not like Jordan Whittington is a twitchy burner, especially after the injuries and bulking. Greathouse will be a good replacement for him, perhaps an upgrade if we're honest. A smaller guy I thought would be a great slot prospect in LV Bunkley Shelton hasn't done shit, including now at OU, just one example but there's no reason not to like the mismatch approach to evaluation
  20. Someone isn't very good at geography
  21. Great win for the horns, but, holy shit Oklahoma's luck with head coaches is officially confirmed over. Venables is so, so bad
  22. Best set of highlights all season just absolutely brutalized by slack jawed Tim Brando As for DL talk, Byron Murphy is easily our best interior guy now
