  1. 3-0 against the three historicals is great for sure still sitting here with a good team that but for some bullshit (mostly self imposed) would be in the playoffs is pissing me off
  2. Years where we sucked ass I was already prepared for disappointment
  3. I just want to say this season was the most unsatisfying season I can remember in a long, long time. yeah we sucked for a decade plus but we knew that going into each season. we did not know that this year would end without a playoff berth. I'm so annoyed. I'm starting to shift my attention and such but dang this sucks.
  4. Talking heads cherry pick against Texas but but but… 3-2 against playoff worthy teams, most games played by a margin of two and one of 6-7 teams with a winning record. In the end that’s all you really need to know. good news is there’s a real possibility a shitty BYU team and two G5 teams make the field. I won’t want this shit show and hope that once again in year two of the playoffs it’s a ratings flop early on. got to 16 and require that if you’re getting an auto bid you are at least ranked in the top 20-25.
  5. With the defenses we’ve put on the field the last couple of years I 100% believe sark could have two rings - at least one - if he’d run a spread with these two QBs. With all the talk about Quinn this and that, his touch and quick release I will go to my grave thinking sark has left titles on the field with his stubborn ass bullshit. I don’t know what next year’s defense is going to look like with Hill, Moore, Burke, etc gone and who knows at DT - seems like a portal success yearly - but if we can field a good defense and sark runs the spread even no huddle we could easily win the whole fucking thing. upgrade some OL, possibly WR and RB and a smattering of D players but the core offense in the spread could fuck peoples shit up. really reminds me of the 7 years with VY and Colt and we only got one. We are in year 4 of the next best stretch of Texas QBs and we are at ZERO titles. /mad face/
  6. I’ll quit this shit in a day or two but right now I’m fucking pissed. Objectively Texas is 6th. How the fuck you can say the 5th team in the SEC standings and a team with a 3-2 record against elite competition is out when most play off teams only played 1 or 2 elite teams to begin with and most with even or losing records against said competition is beyond fucking me. But scram it’s the three losses, and Florida. No is it record or is it best teams because for one Florida matters and Texas is out and for the other Texas is busting doors down and wrecking shit up in the playoffs as an elite top 5-6 team. just be fucking consistent say what you do and do what you say. This committtee is so full of shit.
  7. I’ve said many times is it best record or best teams? The guiding principles and the talk suggest best teams. Its not. it’s best records case closed not a mystery. Adjust accordingly. I’m fine with being out I’m not okay with bullshit messaging and then doing something else. as played on the field with a 3-2 record among elite competition, Texas is the 6th best team. Use an NFL style approach and look at league standings and by either OBJECTIVE measure Texas is in by a WIDE margin even with 3 losses. take the top 10 with the best records and let’s go. That’s the deal stop saying it isn’t. Fucking talking head morons. roll with the 9 game schedule and fuck Notre dame and the rest of the quality OCC games to hell. They aren’t worth it. Awesome for the fans and the sports yay us!
  8. Years we suck aren’t the issue. 2008 is a perfect example. OU playing like dog shit this weekend not even discussed while Texas is railroaded for bad wins. Notre Dame has zero quality wins, Bama gets credit for beating a talented Auburn team that sucks ass and has no coach. There’s no BOMC that’s shit made up by the Aggies. Texas is objectively the sixth best team this year and nope outside looking in while a defense only team in OU is rewarded. Fuck that noise.
  9. Not at all, no such thing, just ask Billy Sims and Barry Switzer. Texas does not get the benefit of the doubt like Bama, OU and Notre Dame. This is well documented not just this year.
  10. Texas has never been a media favorite we are the team people love to hate. I’ve never seen the benefit of the doubt go to Texas. When they say there were no assurances if Texas was a two loss team and beat or didn’t play Ohio state, I believe them. It’s taken clear and overwhelming evidence we belong to get the bid, kinda shocking really.
  11. nothing about bama's FSU loss, nothing about ND's lack of wins. Nothing about head to head, nothing about the most meaningful slate against play off teams of any other team around. just the fucking 2nd grade fallacy that it's Florida. Hey commitee fuckstains, FUCK YOU OLD ASSWIPES, Texas is objectively the 6th best team out of those 12. EABOD, I'm out. time for the holidays then baseball is here. DIAGF you fucking dumbshit.
  12. fuck it, baseball season is almost here.
  13. bowl game doesn't fucking matter. it's a scrimmage.
  14. I think this is setting up with a Bama and BYU loss to be Texas first out.... see we didn't punish Texas, they are ranked higher than several two loss teams. Fuck OU Fuck ND and how do we have the best win of the season and move up 3 spots, but when we have a bad loss (not even the worst) and we go from 7 to unranked. BOMC my ass.
  15. keep the ohio state and michigan games, especially if they are week 2 or 3, they are home games. Fuck Notre Dame, major teams should stop playing Notre Dame - Notre Dame cannot lose with the committee if they play 2 tough games whether they win or lose they get credit. their only resume highlight is they lost to two good teams, that's literally their only highlight. so stop playing them. let's them twist in the fucking wind. cancel those for sure.
  16. There are very few G5 programs that can do this and those really are the only two programs we’ve seen do it with any regularity. North Texas, Tulane and JMU ain’t winning shit when the game really matters. I wish football was like basketball in terms of the upsets but this late in the season in a true playoff the true clear underdog upset will be a rare occurrence
  17. So what the fuck is going on I was in meetings all day, are we in? Does Vegas know something ?
  18. That’s not really true. I’ll give you the dumbest of the dumb are castigated for sure, we do happen to be at least one standard deviation above the ordinary meathead. However, there are plenty of blowhards that say inane shit over and over but are revered because of why I don’t know. But misogyny has an interesting effect, the more you engage in it the more she (whomever is the target) either shuts up and self-relegates to the sideline or gets louder and repetitive. In both dynamics the impact is to marginalize women’s voices with their self imposed silence or further criticism because of their status as a woman. And as someone who is fairly observant I’m sure I’m right because …
  19. That’s great, loss column and style points matter. We somehow think they don’t. They shouldn’t. This sport is political and a beauty pageant and it’s not for the purists. That’s on us.
  20. Texas is 2-2 against the top 10 or play off teams. No team has played as many and only tOSU and Indiana are the only two with no losses if my memory serves. Texas would rank 6th on this metric.
  21. I’d ask for a selfie and an autograph first.
  22. @Thatguy bringing the receipts. Thanks for the effort it’s great to see and read all that. I mean it actually sucks donkey ass but I mean the knowledge is great.
  23. Arkansas and Nebraska ADs on the committtee? We now aren’t at 0% chance we are at negative eleventy billion percent chance.
  24. I don’t watch the talk shows at all and I made the mistake of going on YouTube to find clips. Wow. its this simple (and none of them say this even if they advocate for Texas) - is it the best records or the best teams? If its records Texas is out and get low schedules are going to suck but fine thems the rules. If its best teams then Texas is in, by a comfortable margin. no one is talking like this. But thats the only question - best records or best teams? I’ll save the metrics that get Texas there comfortably they’ve been discussed ad nauseam.
  25. I was just being a gen x curmudgeon. I don’t verbally or physically abuse my kids - in fact so far from it. Those parenting styles destroy relationships, and no comment on my upbringing and quality of my relationship with my father. That’s no one’s business, not his either.
