Dunno what the temperatures will be like up there in Columbus, but if those gottdam clueless TV assholes schedule any of the Texas home games for noon or afternoon time slots during August & September should be staked out at the same time on the pavement of San Jacinto Blvd.

So true but 11 is still better than the 2 to 6 window.

Kind of interesting to see ASU actually try for a change. Though in all honesty they weren’t really trying when they hired Dillingham, they just got lucky. Turns out he can coach a little bit though.

Yeah.  Look, we've been waiting for the "Quiet Giant" to wake up for decades, but I think Dillingham is the right guy at the right time.  Helps that a bunch of his staff are former AZ HS coaches that all won a bunch of state championships.  There's like 3 of them, plus Ward the DC is a valley guy and Arroyo just got burned on starting the UNLV rebuild before being fired so someone else could win with his guys.  They've got a ton of investment from the coaching staff, not just NIL managing to keep the roster intact.

Which one is the Jeff Traylor that all the ASU fans are pining over to become HC one day?

The shittiest part of the noon kickoff is tailgating is fucked. No one wants to go at 9-10AM to tailgate for an hour then walk into the stadium early. 

We had a pretty good turnout for Michigan, but it would have been far better if it was a later game. 

I still haven't decided what we are doing in Columbus yet...

None of 'em.  They're hoping Dillingham's a lifer.  He's from the Valley, went to ASU, got his first college job at ASU, etc.  Think he's still the youngest FBS HC, or at least "power conference" head coach.  Dude's in his mid 30s.

The noon kickoff last year in Ann Arbor was one of the coolest games we played all year. Definitely the only time I wore multiple layers last season.

This hurts the home team more than it hurts Texas.

Don’t agree with the ASU tandem being #1 but that’s not the point

In terms of actual proven production combined with room for growth, seems like a decent top pick.

Spring training week I spent in Phoenix/Scottsdale was one of my most favorite week of vacation spent in my adulthood.  Wife and kids didn’t appreciate it as much, but I fed them dinner at area restaurants and the kids got to swim at the hotel, while I watched baseball.  They did join me for over 50% of the time, but “practice” baseball got old on them after about 3 days and let me go by myself.

Hook’em!!!

Went North of Phx/Scottsdale to see the Rangers and Royals for a day.  For a Texan, I was glad I brought a windbreaker, as once it got shady, the temps dropped.  Not SF cool, but glad I brought more than T-shirts/shorts, and flip flops!

I'm not good at math, but if Texas has 7 of the top 10, it would be hard for any other team to have more.

You're not good at reading, either.
