  1. KU might need to spend some practice time on PATs and two point attempts
  2. Yes. It’s the “new era of the SEC” branding, with the realignment and new deal with ESPN starting next season. edit: this game on CBS so I’m dumb
  3. 14-0 pokes. Looks like no one wants to be known as the third best team in the Big 12
  4. If you think people were getting excited for this one, just wait for April. It’s a damn cool phenomenon.
  5. For me it’s already worth checking out now if you have glasses or a viewer as the moon started peeking over the sun about 20 minutes ago. Such a small and simple visual, but I find it so cool to look at.
  6. Record of conference opponents (I.e. strength of schedule) seems reasonable as a tiebreaker if you have two teams tied without a head to head game. The team who played the harder league schedule to the same record gets the advantage.
  7. Why would OU’s loss to WVU be ignored? I think it goes to other tiebreakers in that scenario.
  8. If WVU had hypothetically gone 8-1 in conference with the only loss being to OU, with Texas doing the same and OU going unbeaten, second place would likely come down to tiebreaker #4. That would basically mean which of WVU and UT’s uncommon Big 12 opponents had the better combined conference record would determine the winner of the tiebreaker. Fortunately that’s a moot point now, but WVU going 8-1 was never going to happen anyway.
  9. UH holy shit
  10. I’m starting to get flashbacks
  11. WVU will get a FG attempt at the very least
  12. WVU didn’t call the timeout right away and wasted like 10 seconds
  13. That’s a tough call on 3rd down, but fair. Receiver played it well to fight for it and draw the flag.
  14. Everyone ready for the warm-up act this weekend?
  15. Yeah Jake admitted he doesn’t root for Texas anymore because fans were too whiny or critical of him being a t-shirt fan or something like that, despite growing up a UT fan. I clearly remember some point last year him commenting how it was funny to see us fail.
  16. Yep. I’ve been a bit disappointed that the Dumb Zone has hardly even mentioned college football when they used to at least do a segment or two a week on it. Then again, most of what they would say back then would annoy me anyway given the lack of depth or just reveling in Texas losses and that kind of thing. I have several CFB podcasts that are very solid. All the cowboys talk is just background noise for me that I mainly tune out.
  17. More statistical projections on the conference race, from https://kfordratings.com/
  18. I know most here hate Herbie, but I thought this was cool:
  19. If only we all had a police escort to get around:
  20. Second to last question I think, Anwar asked him if he’d do anything different with regard to clock management on the last drive. Sark only addressed the playcalling after our last first down and subsequent sack and playing for the FG. Nothing about earlier in the drive.
  21. Some might say it would be soft to call in a rivalry game, but twice in the same drive Downs was talking shit getting in the face and bending down to make helmet contact with our player (Brooks, I think, then Ewers). Should have been taunting.
  22. Yes, and with play already stopped thus negating the hurry up, Sark should have been telling the offense during the stoppage to run the play clock down. In which case you’d think he would have noticed the incorrect timing by the officials, but it seems he didn’t.
  23. I hear what you’re saying, and the game at the Cotton Bowl has the more “magical” feel, but if you’re holding the Big 12 trophy at the end, that’s gonna matter more, regardless if the qualification for and staging that game itself is silly or superfluous. I attended as well and still remember OU fans flashing the number four at us as we filed out, indicating the number of consecutive conference titles they had won. Our earlier win in October is the win that felt hollow to me at that point.
  24. Holding Majors and Watts out this week, Sark will update when they know more by next Monday.
