  1. That looks damning, but in 2024, Quinn has played 4 1/4 games, and three of them were against teams bringing a lot of heat all the time.
  2. I think we know that if ISU and BYU finish undefeated, before the CCG, ISU’s best win will be Iowa and BYU’s best win will be SMU.
  3. Isn’t that what everyone who tweets out something they want to take back says?
  4. If we’re doing hypotheticals,… What if Barron had returned the puck all the way for a TD? Think they would have overturned it (I don’t, but it would have been worth it to see Smart strike out).
  5. When Sark, after last year’s KSU game, said, “I don’t even know what PI is anymore”, in his weekly press conference, showing replays of KSU not being called (Kevin Mar crew), he got some PI calls the next week at TCU. Which really dumbfounded and pissed off Sonny Dykes.
  6. Checking in on Conference-Big 12. ISU (#10 AP, 16 Sagarin) and BYU (#11 AP, 18 Sagarin) are undefeated and not scheduled to play each other. There is one other ranked C-B12 team, KSU, and they are on ISU’s schedule. ISU’s best win is Iowa, a very mid B1G team. BYU’s best win is SMU (they trounced KSU earlier, too). Does anyone feel that, should any defeated ISU meet an undefeated BYU in the C-B12 CG, both teams should make the CFP? Why or why not?
  7. “The Big 12 Fan Base”? WTF? who the hell is that? A couple of guys in Utah, Al on his tractor in Iowa, a couple of Okies…?
  8. I am so ashamed of our students that I made a TexasOne donation. I am disappointed that I can’t designate it in honor of Kirby Smart.
  9. Worth it. They don’t correct the call without the delay.
  10. “Danced with your women.” Dude, do you not know that there are other things to do with them? Dude, we fuck your women.
  11. I heard Bob and Corby downplaying Texas- “they haven’t played a real offense yet this year”, quoting team rankings for opponent offenses. Hilarious that they can never say, “Wow, that semi-local team is having a terrific year. Might be special!” Texas hasn’t played a good offense yet. However, part of those poor rankings has to factor in that Texas took a gouge out of their stats. On average, CSU, Michigan, UTSA, UKM, MSU and OU scored 20 points less against Texas than they have for their other opponents. Against Michigan and OU (decent defenses), Texas scored an average of 14 points more than those two usually gave up (other opponents). I think Texas will acquit itself fine against Georgia. It’s hilarious that Bob and Corby are more interested in finding ways to doubt than they are in observing.
  12. The crazy thing is that Bowman may be the best (healthy) QB in the state of Oklahoma
  13. Question- the police can take your phone, right? With a subpoena, even if you don’t surrender it voluntarily? Given the damn apps I have noting my (well, the phone’s) location all the time, shouldn’t that pretty well establish whereabouts? What are they going to get from you in an interrogation that they can’t get 90% of from a modern person’s phone? (Besides a false confession)? (I saw a Dallas based Dateline/48 Hours/whatever where the wife of the victim texted the killer just before the murder. Did she think the police wouldn’t see that?) I guess it could depend on the situation. If your spouse were missing but possibly alive, wouldn’t you consider handing a detective the phone and saying, “wire me up to a polygraph so you can get on with the real investigation. Ten minutes in, I’m pulling the wire off and asking for an attorney”.
  14. In the 1980’s, Texas was one of a few schools in the region turning SMU in for their egregious cheating. SMU responded by hiring PIs to investigate other schools they suspected of turning them in. They dug up the most minor stuff on Texas, compiled and submitted it (and leaked to the press). Texas got a couple of probations out of that, allowing SMU, OU, TAMU and the rest to say, “You’re no better than us! We just have better teams.”
