  1. Satyanash reading this thread the past few days:
  2. Texas isn't going to get moneywhipped, but also isn't interested in an old school bidding war. I understand what you're getting at, but can you fill in between the lines on the difference in approach?
  3. So Ewers feels like this about his decision? Might have to retire this soon if he makes the right choice this time.
  4. Yes, but how did Louisiana do against Iowa State last year? If only someone around here could give us the answer that question. It holds the key to everything.
  5. First game my wife attended in person. She must've asked me a hundred times if Texas was going to win. I kept telling her, "I don't know, but I like our chances." When tOSU scored with two minutes left to take the lead, she asked again if Texas was going to win. I said, "I don't know, but I like our chances," and when Quan Cosby dove across the goal line with 16 seconds left, she decided then and there that this Texas football thing is pretty great. Yes, dear, yes it is.
  6. You would think, but media speculation and a huge chunk of the discussion in this thread would suggest otherwise. Pods make no sense, imo, when two divisions is so clean.
  7. While I realize that traipsing through copious volumes of preposterously erroneous speculation is a good bit of what we do here, the tripe about pods really needs to go, imo. I've seen proposals with Tennessee, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, and Kentucky in one pod and Alabama, Auburn, Florida, and Georgia in another and that scheme doesn't stand out as remarkably worse than dozens of others floated in this thread. Aside from being too esoteric to effectively market, when a conference (pending any further additions) breaks down into two divisions of eight, providing both regional and competitive balance as well as preserving nearly all historically significant rivalries, a pod system simply isn't necessary or beneficial. It’s been said before, but a breakdown like this would work very nicely.

  8. The guilt is almost too much to bear. I guess we'll just have to console ourselves with this:
  9. Out of 3,000 new posts in this thread, I don't know why this one bothered me enough to comment on, but while you're analyzing the Pac's reasons for not inviting Baylor and TCU, don't discount the fact that they are Baylor and TCU.
  10. Anyone else come across these banal, long-winded soliloquies from BF and start furiously scrolling assuming they are preambles to one of RD's interminable diatribes? I can't be the only one.
  11. Let's let Ewers try to catch up with Maalik Murphy before we start bringing Vince Young into the conversation.

  13. Learn to take a complement. TwiceHorn and MSU baseball go together like fish 'n chips.
