  1. Big 12 fuckery is honestly my biggest worry about this season, after injuries. Any other year, with this roster, I'd be in a diabetic coma from the kool-aid. Maybe it's just battered wife syndrome from the last 13 years, but I can't shake the feeling that our best team in over a decade is going to get fucked over petty politics.
  2. It would be a mistake for the SEC to leave any viable football brand in the south on the table. If the Big 10 gets even one of Clemson or FSU, they could lay claim to being the only true "national conference".
  3. I've never understood the weird snobbery college fans have about NFL fans. Zero self awareness on how ridiculous us college football fans look to normal people. Lol
  4. Replaced? No idea. But imo, assuming we are reasonably healthy throughout the year, Sark needs to get us to at least 10 regular season wins to keep the serious doubt around the program from creeping in. Realistically, I don't like putting too much weight on any single season. We very well could go 8-4 again this year before blasting off in 2024, but I don't think that is likely.
  5. What were these decades of BS calls in UT's favor? I'm assuming you're talking about the SWC era. That was well before my time, and I don't know enough about the conference politics during that time period, but none of that applies to what I've seen since I've started following this program in the late 90s. Shitty calls happen to every team, but I have yet to see evidence that Texas controls everything like so many fans of other schools seem to claim.
  6. Big House Eats is more appropriate a title than I think he realizes.
  7. Didn't we have a Westlake commit that had cardiac event during his HIGH SCHOOL game back in the 2000s? It's not unheard of. Must have been those damn hepatitis b vaccines!!
  8. WTF am I looking at? My first thought is that cake seems ideal for Bob Stoops.
  9. You should have seen my thought process when Herman's drinking buddy staff was announced: "Finally, some unknown, up and coming, honest-to-God FOOTBALL COACHES that are going to GRIND! No more divas like Wickline." The human brain is capable of amazing things when it wants to believe.
  10. Nice! We haven't done the beer mile yet, but that's a really good area to be based out of. There's a park area near tower bridge, and if you can make it there on a weekday, it's perfect. Just enough of a buzz to feel like you're in a world city while still having personal space. It's about a 5-10 minute walk from Joe's, too.
  11. If any of you fucks end up out here in the UK, I recommend Joe's smokehouse in London. Only Texas bbq place in London owned and operated by a Texan. Owner is apparently a horn, too. Scratches the itch.
  12. If you understand the dog whistle then you're just as bad as the person dogwhistling? Not sure if that's it, but it seems to be where you're going with this. I hope that's not the argument.
  13. Now I remember! I was at that game. Unfortunately, I also remember some drunk dude hopping on top of picnic tables outside of the cotton bowl yelling: "WE'RE BACK BABY!!!!" I was done with Mack at that point, so I didn't believe it, but I didn't think we'd still be waiting 10 years later. Cautiously optimistic we finally have a legit top team this year.
  14. Either that, or they just want to keep tabs on who might be viewing gay shit. Not completely discounting your point, but do you really trust our state government to be acting in good faith?
  15. Wasn't he a rb? Or did we eventually move him over to defense? I've tried to block out memories of the time period he would have been here, so it's a bit fuzzy.
  16. Cappin' is some pretty damn old slang. Like early 90s. Your old school Houston rappers like K-rino used to use it all the time.
  17. From conference to national, I guess? Only thing I could think of.
  18. I actually finished off a bowl about 10 minutes before reading that. I assumed that's why I was so confused.
  19. So you're saying he's the conference commish version of mensa?
  20. Made the mistake of reading that board a couple of times. Outside of modern NBA fans, I've never seen so much blatant stupidity.
  21. I was thinking the same thing. I'm hoping that means the staff are expecting us to have some kind of edge rush this year, and we just need Sweat to be a brick wall up the middle.
  22. Saw this out and about in London last month and thought about this site. Didn't have anywhere appropriate to post this til now.
  23. I'm really hoping the offense turns out to be as good as we think it can be. Definitely going to need to try to put games away early and "leave no doubt". If we have any Mensa-style single possession battles, I'm fully expecting to get fucked.
  24. It never ceases to amaze me how Okie State manages to fold so reliably in that game, no matter what kind of team OU brings in. Last year, it almost looked like they were throwing the game in spots. It makes Mack vs Stoops in the early 2000s look like the 10 Year War.
  25. Hey! I loved Chad and Kevin and the Scottish guy back in 2004. I was also a junior in high school in 2004 sooo...nevermind? Might be a nostalgia thing for me, but it was still kinda nice hearing familiar voices like Chad, Bucky, and Erin on the air, but if I'm being honest the vast majority of my CFB content is from YouTube nowadays.
