All of you are sitting around moping about like someone just shot your dog.

Frankly - I'm fucking tired of it.

This is Texas football. Back to back CFP appearances. Back to back national semifinals. B12 champs 2023. SEC title game 2024. Back to back 12 win seasons (13 last year).

Thorpe award 2024.

Outland trophy 2024.

25 NFL draft picks the last two seasons.

Get y'all's fucking shit together and quit being a bunch of bitches. If I have to see one more motherfucker post about 2010 Texas or Garrett Gilbert I'm throwing a damn brick through someone's window.

I am so, deeply sorry that Arch Manning isn't instantly 2019 Joe Burrow. Why don't all of you relax and watch a couple more games before claiming that this team is going 7-5. 

These dogs get another warmup and then they all go get to prove themselves. 

We are going to fuck Florida's shit up.

We are going to fuck OU's shit up. 

Have some fucking faith in what your head coach has shown you and what he has already delivered for this program. The QB is green. They will figure it out. Together. Give them time. Have some God damn faith for once in your life.

THIS IS TEXAS FOOTBALL, GOD DAMMIT.

All of this is why the mood is what it is. We watched two years of football at that level after wandering the desert for 13 years with almost entirely mediocre to bad teams. This year feels more like the latter. The difference between last year's offense - a good but not great unit - and this year's would make an uninitiated observer assume there were major rule changes in the sport.

2010 is a comp but it's not the only one. 2010, 2011, 2014, and 2017 all featured strong defenses paired with bad offenses helmed by young QBs struggling to find their way. They all finished the regular season within a game of .500 and were 0-4 against a slate of OU teams that weren't particularly special, with the exception of 2017.

That script is hardly unique to Texas either. Recent OU teams in 2022 and 2024 had the same fate. Michigan had the same fate last year, though they got the payoff of upsetting Ohio State. The list goes on. Turns out it's pretty hard to win games in a game where the objective is to score more points than your opponent when you aren't very good at scoring points.

Barring a miracle it's pretty obvious where this is going. I wouldn't be shocked if we get to 8-4; we have 3 G5's instead of 2 and a generally soft conference schedule (I think we're going to beat Florida; Arch puts balls in the turf and the stands, Lagway puts them in defender's chests). Though I'd favor them at this point (you can still get OU anywhere from +6.5 to +9.5, apparently), anything can happen in Dallas and the front 7 is going to give OU fits. We could beat aggy, their defense is still bad and Collin Klein seems determined to counterbalance his playing career against Texas in his coaching career. But there are plenty more L's coming and the trip to Georgia is going to be humbling.

Nah... this week won't move the needle in the positive direction since it's just SHSU.  There is plenty of opportunity to dive deeper into the abyss, though. 

 

We're stuck with this general attitude/feeling until after OU at the earliest.  We beat OU and people start finding their nutsacks.  Until then it's "just SHSU" and "Florida sucks this year."

Oh, I read that as “I expect us to struggle and people to start neggin the fuck out of sunshine pumpers”.

I'm all in on the support and "Hoo RAH" for the team. We should be backing them.

What I'm not down for is the idiotic "Arch is Fine and it's everyone else's fault" that he was spewing in the Game thread.

We can, and SHOULD, support the team and think they can win every game...

But we're not aggie.  We don't have to pretend we're blind.

Would it be an inconvenience to you if you could throw a brick through my neighbor's window so he doesn't know it's me?

Thanks for the copious amounts of sunshine pumped straight up my ass, but I still have PTSD (including late night flashbacks) from the Charles Strong and Mensa experience. Hell, even the last 4 seasons of MackBrownTexasFootball have scarred my psyche.

Excuse me if I have to see this team perform at a high level against a team with a pulse before I declare the entire program NOT in dumpster fire status. So far it hasn't had much effect on recruiting, but that part is next if the ship isn't righted, and very soon.
