    you forgot powerhouse florida state to go along with the grueling gauntlet of towson (who the fuck is that?) and ut-martin.

    Not to defend Florida, but it's not their fault that Miami and FSU suck. You never know what you're going to get when schedules are made so far in advance. Sometimes you get a good program when they are down (see Texas ot win vs notre dame) sometimes you get an historically mediocre program at an unhistorically high point (see aggy vs Clemson).

    Still, if the sec would just schedule a 9th conference game and disallow all the fcs games then this would sort itself out. That's the frustrating part of this to me. It's not the hype, it's the fact that they don't ever have to prove the hype. The best thing to happen to college football this season would be a one loss Bama being left out of the playoff because their strength of schedule is so bad.

    Yes, because listing a player as "probable" or "doubtful" is an egregious violation of federal law.  But, Bilbo's the best.

    This was by far the best part of the Q&A. I mean, I've been around a lot of coaches but Jimbo is the best I've ever seen at giving injury reports. And really, that's how all coaches should be judged. Better recruiter than Mack Brown, better gameday coach than Bob Stoops, better injury reports than Bill Snyder.

    Then I was watching football over the weekend and she came down to watch for a bit.  Commercial for the new Will Smith movie "Gemini Man" came on.  "They really found someone that looks exactly like Will Smith".  Had to explain that he plays both parts.

    At the movies yesterday and this preview came on. I couldn't help myself, "Man, that other actor looks just like a young Will Smith. I wonder where they found him."

    Response: "Wait, that's not him? Oh, I guess you're right. He really does look just like him."

  4. The absolute dream scenario would be for aggy to knock off either a one loss lsu or undefeated Georgia to put us into the playoffs. It ain't gonna happen because they suck, but it would be glorious.

    Wife has about 50 or 60 wine glasses, she only uses a total of 4 of them over several days. Her $10 wine glasses are pretty much worth $1 each at best, while my firearms hold at least 75% of their value.

    But then again I don’t shoot my guns much and only carry two of them (alternately). So we are pretty even in our annoyance with each other.

    Problem solved: use the wine glasses for target practice. On second thought, maybe I should go buy some guns.

  6. On one hand, nobody around here is that fired up about him. On the other, LOL aggy. Decommit season is upon us.

    And I hate to go to the "trust the coaches" card since none of us around here are actual coaches except for Greg Davis CTJ, but this staff has been pretty damn good with their evals.

     The decorative wrought iron piece in our house has moved 3 times in a year. Admittedly it could have moved a couple more times I didn’t notice. No Cumsteen.

    Now wait just a gotdamn minute here. Is this like the wives thread corollary to "No Homo?" Can I please get some clarification on this? Does the 'No Cumsteen' refer to the wife, the useless crap itself, the overall house decor, or you? I honestly could see it in context for any of those.

  8. Aggy has always been a much different team at home than on the road, so I think they will perform better than they did at Clemson. Still, I didn't think Clemson really brought its A-game for that one, either. Auburn really caught some breaks to win against Oregon. This will be their freshman QB's first true road game in a hostile environment. Say what you will about aggy, they typically suck at football, but they know how to make loud noises. I think this is going to be an ugly, boring SEC punt-fest and A&M has the better punter. I think aggy wins by a FG.

  9. Member all those games that came down to the fourth quarter last year? Yeah, that ain't happening this year. We wore LSU's ass out. We are going grind Big 12 defenses into dust late in the game.

    Demond Demas is a five-star and has the most athleticism of any recruit in recent memory

    Under normal circumstances, I would dismiss this as an editing oversight that is missing some sort of modifier and should have been written as, "Demond Demas is a five-star and has the most athleticism of any aggie recruit in recent memory" or "of any wide receiver recruit in recent memory." But I'm pretty sure that they meant it as it was written.

    That's fair. But why post in this thread if you don't give a fuck about it?

    Good question. I suppose I'm still interested in watching and discussing basketball in general, and this would fall under that category. I think I'm much less concerned with the outcome and the subsequent reactions, "OMG! The US lost! Fire everybody!"  I mean, I've been to the Summer league countless times (back when it was still cool) and loved every second of it. Shit, I've watched guys play pickup basketball on Venice beach and in NYC for hours at a time. I'm a hoops junkie and there isn't any other basketball going on right now, so I do have a passing interest. I just don't have much of a rooting interest.

    Winning this tournament or the Olympics doesn't really do anything for me. Do we really need to prove that the US plays the best basketball in the world? There's not even a question. Mason Plumlee and Joe Harris defending our nation's honor against Nando de Colo and Frank Ntilikina doesn't really move the needle for me.

  12. I have a difficult time giving any fucks about this. And honestly, I have a difficult time even caring about the Olympics. What exactly are we trying to prove here? I probably have more interest in Suns vs. Kings on a Wednesday night in January than any of this.
