  1. Rust and the number 19 keep coming up in my head. I'll go with Texas 28 and OU 19 Rushing yards Texas - 121 OU ...............................129 spread of -8. Really should be the best game of the year. I think Georgia will be a rout for us, assuming injuries are not significant.
  2. If Sark doesn't take the points off the board, I nail our score. Can't explain the greatness of Arch, other than to say he is the best longhorn backup QB ever! Before yesterday that honor went to Rick McIvor, who holds the honor of the strongest arm in Texas history. If Rick had competent QB coaching and a decent scheme, he would have had a great career in the NFL. I sat on the student side one year and watched McIvor throw a deep ball-probably 50+ yards in the air against A and M that landed in the chest of a receiver and was dropped. . McIvor was so much better than the guys in front of him the receivers had trouble adjusting to his ball. I can't bear to rewatch it, but I don't know how many of his passes were dropped in the 1984 Cotton Bowl loss against Georgia. Never forget 10-9. You missed it by one Sark decision.
  3. The really great thing is that we started slow, but at least our offense fulfilled its potential in the 2nd half, IF YOU DON'T COUNT the mental errors: 1. Sark taking points off the board 2. turnover 3. offensive line penalties. I am a little bit optimistic the D can relearn how to tackle and wrap up. We have a bye week, hope the D hears all two weeks how they can't tackle and fixes the problem.
  4. I noticed one of our linemen ready to FIGHT on the extra point. Guarantee he wants to put 50 on these guys. I like it. We will be hungry!!! next week. I actually like a closer game this week.
  5. we are not showing jack tomorrow....Good guys 38....MSU 17. yards 400. remain healthy for the big game next week.
  6. yeah, pretty obvious BV is not the guy taking them to the playoffs. I would not be surprised to see Tenn in the SEC champ. game.
  7. Looks like my passing yardage was 9 yards away!
  8. Not winning, but this is as close as I am going to come in one of these contests. I haven't looked at box score yet, imagine the total passing yards is within 50 of my prediction.
  9. Just had flashbacks to the bad year of Mack when Colt got injured in the game against 'bama. Colt's lighting it up, and we had soft spot on the schedule in November. It was time to take the training wheels off of Gilbert. Colt gives us a nice halftime lead, but what does Mack do? He has Gilbert hand off the entire 2nd half. Sark-you can prove you can be better than Mack ever dreamed. Sit Ewers next week, and let Arch play the entire game with the entire playbook, or 90% of the playbook! It is gonna take 2 deep at every position, so let's get the 2 deep experience at every position!!
  10. I think Quinn got injured on the handoff, don't remember exact except the handoff was kind of borderline late. After the handoff he got hit pretty hard.
  11. Light the tower for Arch!
  12. We have a Gibson! In my mind he is related to Daniel Gibson!!
  13. ..and on 3rd and 10 we should get the test.
  14. so I am so comfortable with this team, I am hoping Sark calls a pass that requires great control of the thumb, so we can find out for sure!
  15. game finally over, as the Washington D loses focus at the end. C'mon Belichek!
  16. ha!! Washington with a sucky call on 4th down gets stopped!!
  17. upcoming 4th and goal from the 2? Apple cup on the line... closer to the one. TO Washington.
  18. Colt's better than the ref!!!
  19. woohoo, and. strike thrown by the WSU QB. First down.
  20. Washington State has 6:00 on the clock and a lead. My favorite part of the game, when a team with a lead has the ball and needs to run out the clock. Will they pass or stay conservative? They only need about 3 first downs.
  21. Hope I am not copying anybody...Texas 55-missed extra Point, and UTSA 9- our 2nd string D gives up points passing yards Ewers-222, Arch 167, others 29
  22. Texas 37 MIch 36 Rec yards 299
  23. Re, someone a while back remarked about the need to consider that water is going to be tough to find in the future. My retirement preference Texarkana offers low real estate prices and lots of square footage for the money. Ex, right now there is a 2-2, 1700 s. f. home with a detached garage @ 85k. Throw in rainfall collection, even if just from the house and depending upon the efficiency of the rainfall collection, I would guess the home value doubles in 10 years. Big city lot by today's standards, .32 acre. Any experts on how to estimate price of rainfall collection? Is it something that once you put it in is set and forget or is there maintenance every so often? Does it only make financial sense for outside watering or would it work for inside water use as well?
  24. To the OP, can you compare Northwest Arkansas to Texarkana Arkansas?: I am strongly considering Texarkana Arkansas for similar reasons: a. affordable taxes - property tax rate is one of the lowest in the country and state income taxes are 0, unique to Texarkana, my guess is they want to compete with the 0 state taxes on the Texas side. b. small town part of medium sized area - metro area of 200k+ c. quick air commute to DFW, and even drive to DFW if desired- 5 -6 hours d. affordable real estate e. at least three seasons. I am guessing compared to a big city the restaurant scene is 0 in Texarkana, but you certainly cannot have everything. Would you say Arkansas has a winter? I lived in Sherman TX one year and we had enough winter to have snow. That is enough winter for me.
  25. Good news: last two times at Tacquira Datapoint confirm this is some really good Tex-Mex. They've lost their good looking ladies for the most part, but there is still one that really does it for me. Lunch special is the only thing I will eat there, cuz I'm cheap. $9.99 cash price, plus 20% tip and tax, and the special includes tea. Ate lunch special at 4:00 p.m. the other day, which is really great as well. First time was Chile relleno and second time beef enchiladas. I've eaten there only twice this summer, trying not to get burnt out. Bad news: Bill Miller, the wife wanted chicken from BM today. She is picky, has to have breast. I found the hack on the chicken sandwich, ordered the chicken sandwich for me to eat while the wife sleeps. BM accidentally gives me both the fries and the pintos. I ate there. Combo meal under $9. Yes! But then I ordered the four piece chicken to go and offered to pay extra to get two breasts, didn't look and came home to 2 thighs and 2 backs. Called manager, he offered to make it good, went over there and turns out they don't know what a breast is. Looked like someone took a hacksaw to a breast and I had two half breasts. Oh well. I need to find either a chicken express or golden chick. They probably exist here, just haven't looked yet.
