We probably should have ran up scores that season. Computers would have given us more of an edge and outweighed the coaches poll

We should run up the score in every game we can. Sark needs to learn this. Style points matter.

This is a lot of hate for a post that I felt was not that controversial. I mean, I’m not going to argue that we werent fucked big time by the refs in damn near all our games… especially Vandy. 
But we totally almost lost that Vandy game. The Vandy dude had his hands on the ball during that onside kick. I didn’t make that shit up. Does anyone believe we stop them in OT in that game? And speaking of OT, we totally needed some super unlikely shit to go done to beat world beaters …checks notes…. Mississippi State and Kentucky.

So I watched our games.

Our line sucks.

We don’t have a run game.

We overachieved and beat all our rivals. Awesome. Beating A&M, OU, and piggy in the same season is a success. 

We were hosed last year the same way we were this year in regards to shitty SEC refs AND were beyond hosed the year before that in our final Big12 season.

The two previous teams made the playoffs. This year’s team is worse. Full stop. And anyone objective can’t argue the opposite with a straight face.

I guess we could catch lighting and make a little run in the playoffs, but this team is not close to championship caliber like our last two. 
Those teams could have won National Championships with better coaching. Sorry Sark. 

I bitch plenty about this team, but I don’t see how my post is some sort of surly malpractice.

I was just responding because every fanbase does this when they get shafted. Every team has the same complaints about their team. Even Texas fans. Alabama is in the playoffs probably and they hate their coach because of their shitty oline and WRs dropping passes. So what you say is what most to all fan bases say. That’s why it was ridiculed. No team is perfect nor should they be in the nil portal era. To many good players leave so there is gonna be holes in every roster with injury or bust. Ohio state is undefeated and was bitching about their offense against us.

We should’ve tried scoring again against aggy instead of taking a knee. We were already at 3 losses so the fucking style points is all we had. Beating an undefeated team by 17 points instead of 10 may not have changed a thing but why not do it anyways? Fuck aggy and fuck the committee. All gas but brakes once we’re up by 2 scores. Keep your foot on the gas if this is the final gasp in the regular season Sark. I’d prefer if the slogan be changed to NO MERCY

unfortunately a shit ton of learnin' is happening to Sark this year.

I still laugh that the guy's whole O is predicated on running Inside Zone but he hasn't fired his OL coach that can't teach or recruit OL to run it.

He's forced to OZ which he just wants to be the change up to bust explosives after IZ is established.

Stop, just stop. You sound like an idiot and you are digging the hole deeper. At no point did our win % drop below 90% after the first quarter LOL

image.png.0134757b6b48cc334abb4c56731a5ab6.png

If they recovered the onside kick their Win % jumps to like ~20% according to Skynet

Ball on the 48, 33 seconds, no TO’s and down 3 is like ~30-40% chance to get to OT.

None of that factors in momentum and Vandy had all the Mo by then. 
We were holding on for dear life as our defense went full on Pete’s Peace Out Prevent mode ….

That's a bad metric to use. It only measures after a completed play. If you could snap shot it when that onisde kick was rolling free on the ground it would have swung wildly to Vanderbilt. 

We fucked up and got lucky that onside kick was pushed out of bounds. No reason to try to cover up the truth. That's what happened.

Yeah and if Texas throws a long bomb against Florida we tie the game on a two point conversion. Or if we stop UGA on 4th down. Or if we score on the final drive against Ohio State. We can play the hat if game both directions.

Funny how almost everyone is now coming around to saying what I and very few others around here were saying before the season. The SEC is teh deepest conference from 1-10 in the country by far.  No need to schedule anyone that has any shot of beating you in OOC unless every conference is forced to do it.

It would never have swung in favor of Vanderbilt. At best it wouldve swung a tiny bit. They still wouldve had to move the ball into field goal range. Hit a field goal, and then beat us in OT. That whole second half was a ref fuckjob, simple as that.

That dude is a fucking meathead. He also picked Aggy and said Texas was gonna be outclassed by them. His thought process doesnt run very deep.

Josh Pate is on the payroll at TexAgs and Academy. He is being paid to overhype A&M and disparage Texas.

No matter how much he jokes that he reads this on Texas message boards and says he can’t believe Texas fans would believe it, we know it’s true Josh so you can just admit it. 

Hell, use my name on your next podcast. In fact, I’ll come on your show and break it down for you.

It wouldn't have swung that wildly. Texas would still have had the greater chance of winning.

Playoffs will probably expand to 16 by then.

Don't care, don't give them marquee games.  It hurts you if you lose it, but it doesn't hurt them if they lose it (see: aggy game)

Nothing wrong with your post, it just goes against the groupthink.

Good move.   Let other teams  make the first move in the interim.   Plus either in 2026 or 2027 (maybe both) we have a chance to open up with our first four games at home pending the official placement of games by the SEC.

i hope cdc collected some chips from sankey for calling off the dogs mid-week

we started stirring the shitstorm and everyone from bama to byu got in on the act

this capitulation should have also been good for at least 3 "get out of september 11am/2pm kickoff time broiling jail" cards with disney

tosu and michigan better be night games and no bullshit 11am crap that would have been 7pm on lhn

I think if Simpson breaks his leg we are in. That's it. That's our only path. And then they would switch ND and MIami. 

Nah, if Simpson breakers his leg and Bama loses by 50, and BYU loses by a bunch again, that gives them the cover to move Miami up and flip Dome  since both are in.   
 

Then there’s 4 SEC, 3 B1G, 3 ACC (Miami, UVA, Dome) and 1 B12/G5.  Dome is basically ACC with only 6 conference games.   I think they want more diversity even though the SEC is by far the best conference this year.

Since we are out I guess I’m pulling for Duke, Bama, BYU,  Troy, NTx, Boise, Jxville St to all win and fuck up the bottom of the bracket to force change.

what if Kirby goes NFL style and just rests his first string, at some point someone will be the first to do it 

 

And risk a bye? Kirby has an Alabama issue. You don't think he wants to rectify that?

At least they have rules for who gets in, and they know whether they are in or not without some unaccountable jackasses making the decision. 

We are trying to get away from gymnastics , diving, and meat judging...and yet, the cabal that makes the rules keeps it all alive. I don't like the NFL, but at least they kept out most of the manipulation in their playoff schedule. Like politics, if something goes against logic and reason, its due to an agenda and/or serious money changing hands.

Yeah.  The Georgia fans that I know are scared of Bama and rooting for A&M to beat Texas for that reason.  (They are also irrationally jealous of us, so already hated us.)

He's also best friends with Looch. Anything he says about Texas should be taken with a grain of salt

or in Pate's case... a jar of  Looch Lube

If Bama wins and jumps up in the CFP and Aggy falls to the #8 seed, they could play #9 seed OU in Collie.

That would be interesting or at least ironic. I know the meteor rooting interest will be mentioned. 

Barring that do you just watch and not care who wins?
