  1. To be fair, a decent portion of ASU’s roster is where they are because they couldn’t get playing time at Texas.
  2. Peroxide Aggie.
  3. While the megaconferences present a problem with the playoff, it's a tradeoff I will gladly make for better regular season games. We played mostly the bottom half of the SEC, but our schedule this year was still the most compelling it has been since before Nebraska and A&M bailed on the Big 12. We also got more regular season games between helmet schools across the country.
  4. Barnes wide open in the corner so Sochan can air mail that. Terrible shot selection down the stretch all the way around but that last one was especially brutal.
  5. Need a big fourth quarter from Wemby. This feels like one where Ant tries to take over down the stretch.
  6. You get beat on the offensive glass 17-8 and lose the turnover battle 15-5, you are almost certainly going to lose. I’m not even mad. That’s a damn good team they lost to on the biggest stage in basketball. And if Bridges is shooting like that, you just tip your cap. Vic isn’t even old enough to drink and he’s a top 5 player in the league. All of this only gets better. They have to take their lumps and learn how to close out these games. Once they do, look the fuck out. This is just the next step in the progression.
  7. Look, if it makes you guys feel better to buy in to this stadium configuration bullshit, then be my guest. Whatever helps you sleep at night. But open your eyes! It’s a big fat fucking lie. Maybe, just maybe, we can look beyond the surface to see what’s really going on here: Chick-fil-A is the sponsor and they’re running the Peach Bowl with their hard core anti-beef agenda. The Deep Poultry State will go to any length to protect its own interests. Starting, obviously, with banning Bevo from the sidelines. You know it and I know it: Big Chicken hates everything that Bevo represents. Namely, hamburgers. And steaks. And brisket. And a bunch of other delicious shit that isn’t shitty ass chicken. They live in fear of what having Bevo on the sideline would do to them. Maybe we could appease them if we hung one of those denigrating “Eat Mor Chikin” signs around his neck? Maybe then they would be more inclined to put on their big girl panties and take out a seat or two so we can fit our beloved cow into the stadium? You think that ad campaign was an accident? Fuck. All. That. If they outlaw mascots only outlaws will have mascots.
  8. Every time I see "Mitch" in a post, I think you guys are talking to/about me. It's taking some getting used to. Fun game last night. Definitely a tough loss with mostly self-inflicted wounds at crunch time, but you have to give credit to Maxey and Yabusele. Those two were great for Philly. I'm glad we only see Maxey twice a year. He's murdered us every time we've played them. Lots of missed wide open threes all game, but that 18-2 3rd quarter run was a killer. Vic is getting much better at punishing those small ball lineups setting up shop at the nail, but he's still got a ways to go. Castle was so good last night. He deserved 4th quarter minutes. The pairing with he and Sochan is definitely problematic from a spacing perspective, but it would be nice to have their two best defenders on the court together. How they fare from here to the end of January is going to tell us about the rest of the season, if they are a legitimate play-in/playoff team. Lots of road games and lots of games against good teams. Brooklyn is the only outright tanker of the bunch.

  9. Philly tonight and Embiid is playing. Last time he dropped 70 on Vic, although a ton of that was on Collins after Wemby got into foul trouble. This should be a good one to see how he takes on the challenge. PG and Maxey going tonight too for one of the few times this season. GSG
  10. Apologies if this has been brought up, but Texas already beat the ACC champ, plays the Big 12 champ next, could get the Big 10 champ in the third round, and then have a re-rematch with the SEC champ. That would be a pretty cool run on the way to a national championship.
  11. I don’t even know what to say about this. Wemby is the greatest three and d player in NBA history?
  12. They didn’t win game 15 last year until March 17. They’ve had a home heavy schedule so far so maybe it’s a little inflated but they haven’t played many east teams either. But this is more fun than those ridiculous losing streaks they had last year. Re: Fox. I absolutely love him. He would be amazing next to Vic. They have the assets to make it happen, but I’d be more concerned with his contract and the fact that he’s repped by Klutch. Rich Paul isn’t going to give out a discount so he can play for a winner. And if the spurs deplete the war chest for him, it completely guts their long term plans for sustainability. So unless Sacramento wants to give him away for peanuts and/or he wants to sign for less than market value, I don’t see it happening.
  13. I have to think they’re rather happy with the season, even with the ass kicking last night. They beat Michigan. They made the playoff. They have been completely irrelevant for a million years. Just giving their fans a glimpse into success of college football at the highest level has to be considered a massive win for the school. They had zero business in that game but considering where they came from? Yeah, they should walk away feeling happy. But I hope like hell they serve as a cautionary tale for the committee going forward.
  14. This. So much this. I don’t have much faith in SMU matching up to their talent, but Franklin is such a big game fraud. If SMU can keep it close, I think PSU will find a way to choke it away.
  15. He’s 66-10. They have been ranked in the top 5 almost every week he’s been their coach. He’s never lost more than two games in a season. I can’t imagine them firing him. But man it would be glorious if they did and then botched the hire.
  16. The Ohio State perspective on this game is super interesting. Those fans are going to be angsty as hell. A loss would really turn the screws on Day even though his record is ridiculous. They are the most entitled fan base in college football. Even their crap coaches like Bruce and Cooper were knocking out 10 win seasons. They are so due for a walk through the desert. I’m rooting so hard for them to lose in the most excruciating way possible.
  17. I hate to break the news to you but Hope is dead. And that was the biggest pussy punt in the history of college football. Indiana had no business in this game. None.
  18. Fuck Notre Dame, always. I hope they lose by 100. But I don't think Indiana is one of the best 12 teams in the country, either. If they lose bigly, I hope there is going to be a lot of discussion about their worthiness in the field, especially considering their nonconference schedule.
  19. Suck it Atlanta. Now stop beating Boston and Cleveland and go slink your ass back into the lottery.
  20. Maybe if they don’t turn it over every other possession in ot they might pull this thing out.
  21. Wemby needs to take over this fourth quarter.
  22. The all star game is completely unwatchable. The players should be embarrassed about what they have been doing out there. So fuck them for not trying and for making a mockery out of the game. I don’t know if this is going to work but they had to do something.
  23. Big step for you posting negative articles about somebody besides Texas. Congrats!
  24. Yeah, I’m not seeing it. They are also without Jaylin Williams, their other big. They will be better and bigger when both he and Holmgren get back. In general though they haven’t been shooting it from three as well as they did last year. And are still 20-5. I think they’re going to be okay. They are also still very young. That team is a motherfucker that is only going to get better.
  25. On top of all their transfers, they are losing the heart of their defense to graduation: Stutsman, Downs, and Bowman. Woodi Washington and Dajon Terry played a lot too. Their defense was actually very good last year, especially considering how putrid their offense was. Next year could be the worst Oklahoma team since John Blake went 3-8 in 1996.
