  1. It was known even in the offseason that Mateer was likely going to have a really hard time with the Texas defense. He was great at Wazzu against lower competition, but the moment he faced great defenses he imploded. My theory all year is that he wouldn't have anything around him to help, and that is exactly what happened. The defense rattled him, and I would be willing to be some money that Venables is gone after this season, if not before.
  2. Matt Campbell is the guy I would be going for if I were Penn State. Matt Campbell's buyout depends on the scenario: if he leaves to take another "Power 4" coaching job, the buyout is a $2 million penalty to Iowa State. However, if Iowa State were to fire him without cause, the buyout would be approximately $35.4 million as of December 1, 2025.
  3. You can split hairs all you want, but I would call no turnovers and 11-12 on third downs with a touchdown an A performance. As inept as OU was on offense, that is still an elite defense that he was having to navigate all day.
  4. The thousand yard stare in the thumbnail is amazing.
  5. Really sorry about missing hate week guys. I was traveling all last week and couldn't open up the toolbox as normal. I guess we will all just have to live with Venables stupiding his way into getting fired as a consolation prize.
  6. Ah yes.. because early commitments 16 months out are always rock solid.
  7. I got a chuckle at the Brandon Drumm funeral speech while there are fireworks going off in the background.
  8. He literally just tanked a shot at the playoffs for a slightly higher chance of not losing to Texas in Dallas. There is zero chance I would be playing Matter until he is actually ready to go. They could have endured another loss and still been ok if it meant getting right and winning out.
  9. Do you just lurk around waiting to hop into any Quinn Ewers related topic?
  10. Michael Taaffe - Current all american safety and team captain? Ethan Burke - Current starting SDE and stuffer of aggies on the goal line? Arch Manning - current starting QB who gets hyped by being punched in the face? Parker Livinstone - Current leading receiver and guest of honor at the closetojumping 40 yard dash competition?
  11. Absolutely this. Arch was a warrior today, the kid stood tall in there and got his ass kicked and still gave us chances at the end. Happy to see us switch out Stroh for Brooks, that seemed to calm the pocket a bit.
  12. If Manny doesn't play I am a little uncomfortable with our secondary situation this week in terms of covering guys down field. Gilbeau can be had, and Kobe Black isn't particularly a burner. Knowing that Lagway's best trait is explosive downfield passes, I would much rather have guys with long speed this week on the outsides.
  13. Brandon Baker would be broke.
  14. The pre game show for OTF will be at Spurrier's bar. I will absolutely lose if if Spurrier comes on the show and says "CAN'T SPELL CITRUS WITHOUT UT!!"
  15. What makes college football fun is the variety. Sure there are big money schools and small schools. In the moment some people may bitch about having some of their season ticket spend be for a game against UMass or Central Michigan, but at the end of the day the "historical success" was largely built off of playing those schools regularly. The viewing numbers go through the roof when Bama is struggling against a Louisiana Lafayette in the 4th quarter, or Texas is fumbling over its dick against UTEP. People love upsets. If Ohio State played nothing but bluebloods every year, they would have a slightly above .500 record, and most schools would have less.
  16. Of all of the dumb shit I have ever heard of aggy doing, this may be on mount rushmore.
  17. It could just be a scenario where they called a route right into coverage. It happens. I did like this video, I think this guy does a really good job. Nice to see his assessment that Arch snapped out of it and was a different player. I could feel that in the game, I hope he just doesn't have to work into that every game.
  18. This is clearly an offensive play caller with a feel for his team..
  19. Listening to some of the talk shows like Pate and Pickell pick the Florida game this week has been really entertaining. It is clear that the lasting impression of both of them is the UTEP game. Pate picked Florida to win, and Pickell clearly thinks Arch sucks. I look forward to Arch coming out and playing a quality game and then watching all of these guys talk about how they knew Arch would bounce back and that this score was inevitable.
  20. Man I feel bad for Napier at this point. Put him out of his misery already. This feels like when the reporter asked Charlie Strong what it means for his career at Texas when he lost to Kansas and he started to tear up.
  21. Technically it would be UCLA, but in a friendly pillow fight sort of way.
  22. I would be very gruntled if we hung 40 on Florida in any scenario, I think it will be lower scoring than that. 27 - 10 or something like that.
