Yeah, but then you have to deal with all the aggy and OU grads working there.
I'm going to finally break down and cut the cord and switch to a streaming provider after the first of the year, but I fucking HATE the user experience of streaming.
I have one of these on all my TVs - like it much better than FireTV/Stick or Roku: https://www.amazon.com/TiVo-Stream-4K-Streaming-Plug/dp/B089655HQV
It does not need a TiVo and does not play from a TiVo. It is purely an android streaming stick. The big difference is it not only has the micro-usb port for power, but it has a USB C port for adding whatever you want. You can add a hub, ethernet adapter, mouse/keyboard, or a USB stick (I do that) to hold more apps. I have a 128GB thumb drive attached to mine. Also if you get an HDHomerun or some other OTA tuner it will show that, or you can get the channelsDVR app. I use that because it allows you to make your own channels, so I have a kids channel, a Prince channel, a Longhorns Football games channel, and a bunch more. I download that stuff from youtube or other places automatically and can watch it either on Plex (with the TiVo Stream 4k) or channelsDVR. There are no fees or subscriptions or anything for this streaming stick. You can also sideload it with whatever you need like any other android stick. It does have a mini TiVo peanut remote - with the channel number keys, mute, and all the stuff that you wish the fire remote had.
Note - you have to make a TiVo web account to register and I think they only let you register somewhere between 4 and 8 of the sticks since they are so cheap.

I think ESPN will have it because the dispute is with the owner of KVUE, not Disney.
I hope so, at least.
You should be able to use the ESPN app to see it IIRC. I think they carry the ABC games but there may be some sort of a blackout thing happening as well.

So with an old school antenna, you can still get this in Austin? We have that since Google Fiber shit the bed on cable TV. So my regular KVUE signal will still work or do I need to cut a bitch?
Here - go here and see what you can get in your zipcode using an antenna. https://www.antennaweb.org/
This one is good as well, and doesn't have as many ads. https://www.antennasdirect.com/

You can still come to Austin. San Antonio is just an hour and a half down the road and has tons of hotel rooms.
Maybe fly into SAT, get hotel and car there - unless you are driving of course.
I thought they stopped scheduling Football and F1 on the same day after the first clusterfuck?

Of course - I agree. But I started all this saying you want two things and it's 100% you're in. FSU loss. Georgia win. Then you're in no matter what. Someone else brought up the over Oregon path. It gets no simpler than Georgia win and FSU loss. But I got pushback on that hearing about some path with Oregon etc. No, just those two things. You wanna talk about simple? What path is more simple than that?
Add in a Michigan loss to Iowa (unlikely) and it becomes infinitely simpler.

Sark’s oregano playcalling will have the Fighting Gundys steamed.
If they are still fighting after the game some of them will likely get collard.

Wow, yeah he gets plowed into hard. Now I feel bad for thinking it was a smokescreen to hide that he was pissed off.
Plus - goddamn kid, how accident prone can you be?
If he ever plays against UTSA he better stay away from their mascot...

OU was no longer undefeated when the first CFP rankings came out. They had just lost to Kansas 3 days prior and had almost lost to UCF the prior week. It made our loss look pretty bad while Oregon was rolling (eye test and win against Utah right before rankings). If OU stayed undefeated (like washington did), we never would have been behind Oregon. I never understood why everyone was so happy about OU losing when it was bad for Texas, best case was we beat an undefeated OU in the CCG (would have been good on so many levels). I like to see OU to lose as much as the next guy, but not when it hurts Texas.
Thanks - I've slept since then.

Because the committee puts more weight in who you lose to than who you beat.
they lost to a undefeated Washington and we lost to a 2 loss ou. If we don’t shit the bed in October this doesn’t matter.
When they ranked Oregon above us we lost to an undefeated ou. It makes more sense now than it did then.

I'm not talking about AP Ranking. I know it doesn't matter. why is Oregon over Texas in the playoff ranking right now(as of the latest ranking)?
Yeah we'd need a crystal ball to figure that one out. It makes no sense. What's worse is they may not move Oregon this week with Oregon/Washington looming for the CCG.

why is Oregon still over Texas?
Let's see what happens on Tuesday. AP means nothing at this point, other than giving everyone something to look at and speculate. CFP commission doesn't have to do anything with AP rankings.

If we are left out I hope we play a 1 loss Georgia again or tOSU in the bowl game.
I doubt we'd see Georgia since we will play them in conference in 2024. SEC will want to hype that game because of the previous game.

So I just found another reason I'll actually miss LHN. I like the pregame and postgame shows, but tonight was another level. The pregame showed most (if not all) of the seniors in the senior day ceremony while the broadcast only showed one or two. Then the postgame kept showing the seniors going over and firing Smokey the Cannon. The one thing I didn't see was the postgame report with Sark. The press conference this week should be good.

No way. Snap it in half and toss it in the trash.
Or put it in the trophy case with the quotes of the commissioner and his lackey and put christmas lights all around it. And a push button with laughing sounds.My kid had a better idea. Win the trophy, go to the SEC, and every game week tweet a picture of the trophy (in our trophy case) to the Big12 twitter account. You know - so they remember where the trophy went.

KSU, ISU, Nebraska, etc meant nothing to us in 1994.
At least now we're playing among the absolute cream of CFB and strategically speaking it makes no sense to give any of those leftover big 12 teams any recruiting exposure. Us and aggy should absolutely dominate the state in recruiting now and the techs and TCU should fall off a cliff within 5 years without any marquee matchups left.
Already this season Baylor hasn't played on broadcast TV hardly at all since we beat them. Their games are only on ESPN+ streaming. They're fully irrelevant now. That will happen to the rest of the conference eventually and they'll have to start playing on Wednesdays to get some attention.
I wonder if the rest of the current Big12 teams realize that once Texas and OU are gone the new team that will end up running things won't even be a member until 2024?

How about neither divisions or pods? How’s that grab ya?
I actually just read an article on the 2024 SEC schedule, and they still don't know what will happen in 2025+. I see 1+7 and 3+6 options so far with each team having 3 "fixed rivals", but as far as I know it is not decided. 2024 has no divisions so the conference championship game will be the top 2 teams (can't wait to see those tiebreakers). I don't know if they will stay away from divisions or pods in 2025 yet.
There are some interesting arguments in this article.
I still think if they stick every team with 3 "fixed rivals" it would basically be a defacto pod, so having 4 "tier-3 rights" channels could work.

I'm going to miss it. I liked catching some random volleyball last year when we were the juggernaut marching towards a title. All the basketball games are either national TV or there. I don't have to go hunting for ESPN+ nonsense to find our games.
I don't understand why it has to shut down. It's already there so why not just rebrand as another SEC network that focuses on Longhorns or 3/4 teams? Make sure every basketball game gets broadcast and also the majority of non revenue sports.
I didn't pay complete attention to the new divisions or pods - figured I'd catch up next year. But - it would be cool if they had an SEC network for each pod for the non-football sports, press conferences, spring games, coaches shows, etc. That would easily be doable, and they could actually keep using the LHN studio for one of the pods. I find myself watching LHN frequently when I have nothing to do and just want background noise. I watched the last SWC Texas/TTU game last night. I'll miss that stuff.

In this they are undefeated. Put it on the wall.

THE College Football Playoff Rankings Thread [MICH,WASH,TEX,ALA]
in Football
Posted
If Bama loses they will drop and make our best win a little less. Winning the CCG will help though, but it is pretty murky to me. Either way FSU has to lose, and if Michigan also lost I wouldn't be at all upset...
