  1. I guess I place too much emphasis on scoring defense.
  2. Oh, I think a key to the game will be if A&M can field a healthy LeVeon Moss. If they do, I think we might have to score 48 points to beat them. He's a fucking monster to bring down. As you know, that will take pressure off their two main receivers as well. I've noticed that some teams have succeeded running on their ends who are hell bent to pass rush. I feel a Texas victory coming on that will be the first of a humiliating three game losing streak to finish A&M's magical season. They haven't faced teams of the kind they are about to since the second game of the season. I'm not saying they'll be overwhelmed, but a lot of shit they do won't work against better and more evenly spread talent.
  3. We shocked the nation because nobody expected us to do anything that year. Next year we'll start the season in the top 5. We won't be shocking anyone unless we open like we did this year against Ohio State. Arky moved with ease? They didn't score the second half until the game was out of reach. Also, if they were moving with ease, why did their opening two drives end in field goals? They cracked some big plays. They lead the conference (nation?) in those things. A killer for their first few long gainers was Taffe bouncing off the ball carrier. I'm not talking about the touchdown run. The first two possessions Taffe could have contained them with better tackling. I wonder if he was hesitating to wrap up because of his hand. He popped back to being his old self and contained many plays that would have gone for 15 or 20 further. Man, we miss Taffe when he's not out there.
  4. The coronation of him as the QB in America set to lead us to the national championship was brutally unfair. His extremely poor play early in the season and his demeanor made feel the same way you did. I've got nothing but admiration for he's handled spotlight and worked to get better. I'm excited about him now.
  5. You beat Notre Dame because they missed an extra point and an egregious hold wasn't called on your miracle play. And, of course as you liked to say the year we opened against Alabama and dominated them, the ND you played isn't the same team they are now. But, we know, Tech is your actual rival and it's hard not to knock them. You're so insecure for a third-rated team with no losses.
  6. Very good for a QB starting for his first season. And he's getting better.
  7. It's better to practice against our superior defense in practice, actually. Practice isn't the problem. You can't practice in the season to make your OL individually stronger. Shitty team? The score was close. There's only one game to judge an opponent by, and that's the game you're actually playing against them. Arkansas was in the game. Interestingly, kicking field goals had them within one point of us. I've seen Smart opt for fourth down tries in earlier games. It wasn't much of success until he played us. He almost lost the Tennessee game because he forgoed earlier scoring opportunites. All year, I've seen teams try and fail and turn momentum over to the other team only to realize late in the game that three points might be pretty handy to have.
  8. Examples of Aggie victimhood and military school-type strategic innovations. Create pressure on pass plays to harry a good quarterback. Run the ball and score. Nobody will be looking for that! Someone alert Elko about this plan of attack!

    Gaza? Maybe join the Kurds who don't have a homeland. You're getting a hell of a lot better deal than they did. The USA floats Israel. The same country betrays the Kurds time after time. Ask the British, they're the ones who started both shit boulders rolling.
  10. Chicken hawk rat bastard sucking Americas blood through a Haliburton straw. He can't be rehabilitated simply for not being as bad as Trump. There are actual traitors who have not been as bad as Trump. For fuck's sake.
  11. It's pretty bad. The climax of the movie was too easy as well. No likey.
  12. The problem is the obscene cost of college education not the manner in which the predatory loans are distributed.
  13. Hi. Will you donate to my gofundme to repair the damage done by never-trumpers?
  14. I'm guessing they thought their votes would make them hyper-American and part of the in-group. Shrewd strategy. This is nice juxtaposed with the story about a rape victim voting for a rapist.
  15. Who is this guy, Bertrand?
  16. All they want to cover and, therefore, everything they want to see is part of the political horserace. The premise of the question is, "surely you see the world as I do, that is merely blows dealt and received by the Dems and GOPs." It passes for subtlety among the meat puppets on the TV. So intellectually vacant and narrowly focused coverage of the news has, IMHO, promoted the transformation of American politics into the NFL. Particularly, obviously, for the right.
  17. Cruz and Vance look like they should be getting married in the secret Roy Cohn Cathedral for Self-loathing Homosexuals.
  18. What a toilet.
  19. I'm not saying your overall point is invalid, but it seems we view player rankings through a lens of current success on the field. "Offensive linemen are the most difficult to project at the next level. Coaches know more than the services." We do well on the field; the coaches are evaluatin' motherfuckers. We do poorly on the field; why can't we recruit the higher-rated OL.? The OL on the field is performing better than, gasp!, earlier in the year. They were all new. There are other criticisms about the godawful penalties and mismatched scheme that seem valid, but, with us, it's everything is great or everything is bad. Sooo dramatic.
  20. Fair enough.
  21. Pssst! We're not all the same person.
  22. If he can manage a winning season in year one, he'd be a hero there. It's a better springboard to greater heights than being OC at A&M where he is about to lose his OL. I don't know what the status of his two excellent receivers is. I don't know if acquiring those guys was genius or luck. I look forward to seeing how his offense works against a sequence of better defenses than he's face so far.
  23. Nice composition. You make think that morons isn't really enough to describe the people you describe. They're degenerates. I looked up the word to be sure it's as precise as I think it is: Mass degeneracy. Kinda hard to stop.
  24. If he is cooked, he will have managed to fail at the highest level possible. Well, if you set aside integrity and morality anyway.
