November 16, 2025Nov 16 ha. behind both OU and Vandy. gotta love the historical polls and the loss column. if we play Virginia Tech instead of Ohio State the coaches and AP would have us at 8.

Especially when that opponent is #1, on the road. Texas should be treated like a 2 loss team.

Texas should be treated like a 2 loss team. Texas is functionally being treated as a two loss team. Ahead of several two loss teams and behind some. Right behind two-loss USC. About a 1/5 chance of making the CFP— better than any 3 loss team. In the AP poll the two loss teams ahead don’t have more than one non-competitive loss. They have good wins. Texas’ win vs OU and Vandy are good but wins over UGA, USC, Pitt, Bama, Iowa, Arizona State, and ND are good wins. Some really good wins. And there’s also not clearly handling bad teams a couple times. Texas isn’t being punished for the tOSU game; the big issues are the way the UGA and UF losses went and the inconsistency in other wins.
November 16, 2025Nov 16 this is the most undisciplined horns team i can remember arch overcame flag after flag after flag and the D kept us in it until arch sailed the pick against a 5 or 6 at their place we would embarrass the brand and i don't think we are going to beat aggy there, i said it

You forgot lost to Florida. Losing to Florida and getting curb stomped by Georgia is a clear indication we don't deserve a playoff spot. Anyone thinking Texas deserves to get ass pounded in a CFP game is just delusional at this point. Also, to throw fuel on the fire the offense didn't do jack shit against OSU. But sure, we should be in the CFP. Edited November 17, 2025Nov 17 by BurntEyes

The Big Ten is hierarchical, not meaningless. tOSU, Indiana above Oregon above USC, Michigan, Iowa. And the games have ended up basically in order of hierarchy. No real chaos or parity at the top. And: tOSU has ducked most of the depth of the conference. This is what to expect from superconferences. They were and are a bad idea.

Look at the records of teams behind Texas, Texas is being treated like a two loss team (highest ranked 3 loss team and ahead of several two loss teams), a two loss team that has only one really good win and a bunch of trash wins, a blow out to Georgia and a loss at Florida.

Florida has a good roster that got mismanaged, they’ve competed with Georgia, ole miss, and aggy. They jumped Texas and held on. When they’re motivated, they’re legit despite the chaos, and I hope Texas poaches some gators this off season. The playoff-contending B1G teams have strength of schedules ranked in mid to upper 30s (or #50 for Ohio State). Florida’s SOS is #2, Texas’ #6, your Sooners land at #10.

November 17, 2025Nov 17 For the record, I’m not arguing that Texas deserves anything. Texas shit the bed against Georgia but Arch is finally playing at the level we expected. Texas could lose to Arkansas and Aggy or win both. IF Texas fucks around and finishes 9-3, they could get lucky and sneak in.

Yep with the new landscape of college football, starting with the transfer portal, then adding NIL, re-building years shouldn't exist any longer for the competitive teams. A lot of talent to go around, go find it. Texas didn't do shit to replace the offensive talent they lost last year. aggy saw they had an offensive weakness and went out and loaded up on WRs. Gone are the days of teams like Bama stockpiling talent back when players wanted to go to those teams at a chance for a ring. They are going to go where they can start. And with NIL, no longer certain programs having the edge because they do it under the table and others wouldn't participate. Absolutely no excuse for a school like Texas to struggle to replace and re-load players. They got out-did by Tech and aggy this past offseason. When does Ohio State ever really have a down year? Ever since I have been a senior high school (2003), Ohio State is always there. And that was even in the old days of no NIL, transfer portal. The talent of WRs they land year after year, I am jealous. Bama used to put those rosters together, too.
