  1. It was Iowa State announcing the black uniforms and getting cocky on social media. Texas fans and players are both grumpy and want a beat down.
  2. As long as I don't see anyone wearing elevation masks.
  3. A convincing win is the standard, to keep everyone from imploding as they have been the past two weeks.. we would need a blowout with all new offensive plays and a defensive identity with players who tackled. Having said that, I think Herman can get there. I think i'm with that poster who said there may be trolls afoot amplifying the hate. Social media exploding with negativity about Texas absolutely has an impact on kids and recruiting these days... and it sucks to see folks loose faith so quickly when there is time to improve on play this season.
  4. Was watching that game as well. They are on a nice run, but they take 1 at least two losses before we get them, and we get them at home. We need to go back to being pissed of Texas, I think we will.
  5. We lost to LSU by 7 and OU by 7... but agree we got pushed around this game. However we still kept it close and if we wouldn't have had what seems like an anomaly of a bad day on offense, could very well have squeaked out a win. Decimated defense and all. I guess I'm just not as doom and gloom as everyone else. This team can still pull it together and make a run at the B12 championship and a decent bowl game.
  6. I thought I heard Craig Way say on the radio this morning, that the non full time employee was some guy Briles hired to shoot a documentary... but he was also providing video research. Or something of that nature... don't think it was the father.
  7. I wonder how Dicker is going to feel in the morning. Someone needs to teach that dude how to tackle.
  8. Plays lights out, he goes all out all the time and is a bad ass. He can shut it down, lights off.. game over. In no way was I trying to be negative, Caden is a baller.
  9. Caden Sterns is getting an MRI, but looking at his face when he was on the cart... I'm worried. Dude plays so hard and lights out, I sincerely hope it isn't something serious.
  10. Here comes the cramping and stopping the clock.
  11. I saw Shackleford with a trainer at the Dr. office this afternoon, boot but no crutches... he looked in good spirits. Wife wouldn't let me go dap him up, so I've got no other intel to share heh.
  12. Honestly, I think a lot of blame should go to The Advocate, they pushed that click bait title, but what Ed said didn't exactly align with that. Ed Orgeron confirms LSU did not have A/C in visitor's locker room during Texas game
  13. Apologies if I missed it, but I don't know the answer. For the Texas students, if it is first come first serve to the seats... how do they know the capacity for those sections and when they are full? Is the gate keeping actually done at the gate or are they letting in more students that can fit into the allotted sections? Can someone explain to me how it works or point me in the right direction? Thanks!
  14. I would hope the university says something quickly about this, or clarifies what was going on. LSU owns the narrative now and they are all over social media whipping up outrage that Texas is the bad guy. I hope it isn't true, it certainly makes us look bad. And any win we had I would have hoped it was because of the play on the field and that's it. It doesn't make sense to give any team a reason to complain about something like air conditioning, especially in this heat.
  15. Yeah, pointed that out during the game. Comical.
  16. Without repercussions, people take advantage of it. You interrupt the flow of the game, rest your players and get a chance to game-plan. Again, I don't want to use that as the reason we loss. But I hope everyone who watched that game could clearly see how it was an advantage for LSU when so many players were cramping up, and only on the defensive side of the ball. There were plenty of times that Joe was rolling down the field where a Texas cramp or series of cramps could of helped us regroup. But Texas players don't play that game and shouldn't. Hopefully some of the sports talking heads also took note and we can have some honest conversations about this practice across the league. It needs to be kept in the news cycle.
  17. I'm bummed we lost, but even less so this morning. Honestly, I feel really bad for the players because they put it all out there with class. Our secondary is young and definitely needs to improve, but this game will help going into Big12 play. I still like the trajectory of this team, the offense continues to improve, defense is growing, recruiting is good and I'm still behind the coaches. Yesterday was incredible for the Longhorn brand and fans, it was about as good of a day you could have considering we lost.
  18. Yeah, that was crazy. I asked about it earlier, how much time did they get out of that? Free timeouts to rest, reset and prepare their defense. And we still put 38 points on them.
  19. Anyone count how many times LSU players went down with cramps and how much time they received to recover? I'm just curious from a data point of view, not excuse.
  20. That is pretty cool, had no idea you all did that.
  21. Georgia Southern is no Louisiana Tech and LA Tech almost beat them at home last year. I'm glad they are overconfident their offense is unstoppable after that game yesterday. Texas needs to continue to let the sec machine hype themselves up then take LSU to the woodshed next week.
