  1. Caruso fouls repeatedly with the body then slaps across the arms with wild reach-ins on every shot attempt. He clearly fouled Wemby at least twice on the fadeaway. It's wild how he gets so much respect from the refs and announcers. He's just a bald, flailing foul-machine.
  2. Massey 55 Sagarin 69 FPI 70 SP+ 57
  3. You're not wrong to root for Baxter, of course. He's a Longhorn. The problem with keeping him on the roster is the same problem the Cowboys had for years with Ezekiel Elliott. He's a progress-stopper at this point. As long as he's on the team, he will inevitably get some carries that could have gone to someone better and those carries will most likely result in wasted plays/drives.
  4. Sure we can. Tech plays a shitty schedule in a shit conference. Texas doesn't have an obligation to remedy that. Tech played Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Kent State, and Oregon State this year out of conference and here you are whining that it's only because Texas, Alabama, and Georgia wouldn't play you. Boo hoo. There are about 250 teams somewhere in-between Georgia and Arkansas Pine-Bluff. If Tech is serious about addressing their shit schedule, instead of blaming big bad Texas, pick up the phone, start making calls, and schedule the best teams that you can OOC. But that's not what your administration did. They chose to schedule 3 flea-ridden shit bags OOC to go with your shitty in-conference schedule and you think that entitles you to come on here spouting about both ways. Get a grip and do a little self-reflection.
  5. Woof, that's certainly a take. This Texas team, as of right now, isn't as good as the past two years, but in no way am I ready to concede that it would have no shot against Texas Tech or Oregon. Fans also like watching their teams play in the big show. We don't have to be the favorite to win it for me to want to see Texas get a shot.
  6. Yeah, that's the point. The committee made a big deal all preseason about how they are going to reward SOS and not punish losses in marquee OOC matchups. That was obviously a load of hooey. Schedule only pushovers in OOC to inflate your record because that's all that matters--that's the message the committee is now sending.
  7. Michigan has ZERO wins over a ranked team this year. Texas has 2. Michigan was handled easily by OU, whom we beat. Michigan lost to OU and was blown out by USC. Texas has lost @OSU, @GA and @UF. Don’t give me the close games argument. Michigan survived by 3 points again Nebraska, 5 points against Purdue, and 2 points against Northwestern. Why again should Michigan be ranked ahead of Texas? There is ZERO rational justification for doing so.
  8. We know, but Freeman has been mentioned several dozen times on this thread including about two seconds after I posted that:
  9. Surly: Notre Dame's schedule is a joke. Beat 2 G5 teams and the sisters of the poor, lost to the only decent teams they've played, and still a shoe-in for the playoff. Also Surly: We need to go get Freeman.
  10. Roberson makes Juwan Mitchell look like an All-American.
  11. Nice to see Flood changing things up. Elkins has good feet for the position and longer arms will be a plus when he is called on to pull block the D-gap.
  12. Sark had better keep an eye on Livingstone.
  13. Precious memories for you, I'm sure.
  14. Sark hit home runs the past two years with incoming transfers. This year Endries and the punter are good, but we got nowhere near what we needed from the portal. Recruiting and development failures have shown up in a big way now that the portal additions aren't panning out.
