  1. I think I heard that UF’s best two pass rushers from last year transferred out. Princely Umanmielen and another guy.
  2. This seems a bit like our game against Michigan in terms of talent disparity and a likely outcome. Jackson Arnold has more talent than Davis Warren, Quinn had more experience in big games and road atmospheres than Nico does, and it’s a night game, so maybe it’s closer. But if Tennessee jumps out to 24-3 halftime lead like we did, don’t expect Heupel to put the car in park for the second half like Sark did.
  3. I read You Like it Darker. It was fine but I think this was the first set of SK short stories where there wasn’t one that will stick with me. All of them seemed like variations of ones he’s done before. Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream has the antagonist who is slowly deteriorating mentally, Rattlesnakes has the vengeful ghosts of a tragic death, The Dreamers has some concepts from Revival (which in turn borrowed from some old Weird Fiction short stories), Weird Willie is a variation of Gramma. Only The Answer Man had a fresh concept that I’ll remember, even if it isn’t a great story. Apparently he started writing it in the 70’s, so maybe that’s why. It makes me a little sad to think that the Master of Horror, who I’ve been reading for 40+ years and has given me so much enjoyment, might finally be slowing down. I just got Fairy Tale and Holly and I’m glad to see some good reviews of the former on here, so fingers crossed.
  4. Top 5 for me among his novels. Just a great page turning story. And for those who don’t know, the short story “One for the Road” in the Night Shift collection is a terrific epilogue/coda to the novel.
  5. This will be great for Arch to have a week of practice where they plan the offense around his skill set.
  6. If both us and UGA stay undefeated until they come to Austin, it could be a #1 vs. #1 regular season matchup. I can’t remember that ever happening.
  7. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but I’ll take it!
  8. So glad we are ruining SEC Final for them on Saturday nights.
  9. True freshman
  10. That was the purpose of my quotes. Florida is circling the drain already but the Aggies will say any SEC road win is like winning a playoff game.
  11. Aggies are going to be mad that Arch lighting it up is going to step all over their “big” win in the Swamp on the highlight shows.
  12. Tennessee is legit but Kent State may be the worst team in FBS
  13. Simmons is worth every penny we paid to get him.
  14. If Quinn had to get injured, it couldn’t have come at a better time.
  15. Arch making the Daily Mail already Fans go wild for 'future Heisman winner' Arch Manning after touchdown https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/college-football/article-13851561/Arch-Manning-Texas.html
  16. Fucking Superman
  17. We have played far from a clean game thus far but the disparity in the talent between these two teams from when we played them two years ago is staggering.
  18. Can we please not get our best players injured against these fools?
  19. I hope Quinn is OK but it’s a good stretch of games for Arch to play if the hand is a problem.
  20. I hate to explain it to these dum-dums but there are going to be 7-8 “very good, but not great” teams getting in the CFP this year. Based on early returns I think we are one of the top 3-4 teams, but most of the teams getting in will have flaws that can be picked apart. ATM, of course, is not even in the “very good” discussion and will have to show a lot more just to end the season ranked.
  21. Thanks so much for that totally non-committal leaving open of the door.
  22. Wow, I thought he was just starting his second season.
  23. Mbatchou has only played one year of foootball, right? All raw material and the big programs are all over him.
  24. That’s gonna be bad news against Tennessee’s d-line.
