  1. Fully enjoyed it. Excellent film adaptation of a musical. Ariana Grande is hot, and very good in this. Was also worried about the runtime going in, but hardly noticed it.
  2. Presser moved up to 11:00
  3. I don’t typically buy into “media member X hates us” and that line of thinking. But listening and reading to recaps of this weekend (and the last few), and it’s incredible how our wins are plainly dismissed in comparison to other flawed teams in CFP contention. Penn State win by 1 against Minnesota: “Minnesota been playing well…good win for PSU” Indiana 38-15 to Ohio State…”was closer than it seemed cause of special teams and late TD” Oregon…”gutsy win at Wisconsin” I’ve heard heaps of credit given to SMU and Tennessee for fuck’s sake, hardly a positive word said about Texas in the last month. ”if Texas loses to A&M they should fall far in the rankings…what have they done?”, while in the same breath saying the environment we’re walking into Saturday will be one of the toughest in recent memory. I know I shouldn’t give a shit, we’re fine with the CFP, but it’s annoying me. Need to shut them all up over the next couple weeks.
  4. UK clinched at least a share today. Be nice if Missouri did us a favor and knocked them off in the last match.
  5. Fuck off Aggy
  6. Now we go to dueling 2 point attempts
  7. Well that call probably decides it
  8. Receiver gave up on it
  9. OT will be decided by who fucks up first
  10. Feels like an auburn turnover is inevitable here
  11. Something like that should be reviewable
  12. Long way to go in this one. Auburn has found all kinds of ways to blow games this year.
  13. Weaver was the glue in that last few minutes, plus good FT shooting and a couple makes from Tre
  14. Johnson doesn’t lack for confidence that’s for sure
  15. Weaver salvages a lot of possessions
  16. Something is out of whack, that’s for sure
  17. I missed the first half… now my eyes are bleeding
  18. If we’re relying on Shedrick for any significant contribution on offense, we’re fucked
  19. Slicing them up. Wish we could have one of those five-setters back.
  20. Great movie. Very funny. Thought the ending was very strong too.
  21. Could jay Williams be any more obvious on who he wants to win??
  22. They did. But at least right now, a major talking point in CFB media is resume stacking and big wins. I’ve listened to two separate podcasts from today where they went down the list of SEC contenders and repeatedly mention Texas having no big wins or even ranked wins on its resume, and talk about the A&M/Texas loser being out of the CFP. Number of losses and quality wins are the dominant factors, at least as far as media discussion. Who you lost to is not the top consideration. I’ll also add that our laying an egg against Georgia is also brought up a lot. Had that game appeared more competitive (even though I think it WAS more competitive than it seemed), I don’t think we’d be catching as much skepticism. Fortunately the media does not determine the rankings, the committee does, and they’ve ranked us favorably so far. But being a beauty contest with Ole Miss and Tennessee for the final at-large spot could be problematic for us.
