Y’all are building yourselves up to get let down. I think we lose this one by 14. Too many things have to go our way and we just haven’t looked like a team that can play a complete game… particularly on the road.

This is a chance for Arch, Sark, and the team to make a statement and shut up the doubters.  I hope they are the more physical team, bust Georgia in the mouth, and prove they are truly contenders.

Fuck all that, we're going to win and shake up the standings this weekend.

Yes!!

And Sark needs to yell in the post game interview “We didn’t come here to take pitchers!!”

Nah, we are going into Athens and  laying down chaos. Ant Hill,  Simmons and Mookie are about to drag their nuts all over the field.  They are lucky Bevo is not coming, because he would not only eat 20 yards of hedge but he would leave a healthy pile on the way out.

As long as we lose by less than 10, it's a favorable outcome that keeps us in the CFP hunt. Blowout loss might knock us out regardless of what happens the last two games.

We will be the more physical team. We were last year in the sec championship game. The problem is that even if I think we’ll be the more physical team , Georgia is just as physical and are at home. Our defensive toughness will make this a game tho. Let’s fuck em up

It's the same miserable dickheads that were comparing this year to 2010 earlier in the season.

Oh come the fuck on. Back to back OT wins against much worse opponents in our recent SEC road games. The Vandy game was great and the 4Q was a butt fuck from the refs, but this team is objectively lucky to be 7-2. Texas has to surprise in multiple ways Saturday to win. There’s no justification to expect to win. Georgia should be favored, but we have a great opportunity. Arch has played his best 5 quarters of ball prior to this game which gives us hope.

Well that would prove some shit so what would be wrong with that? Isn’t that how it’s supposed to work? Don’t go to OT vs Miss st and Kentucky then almost blow it against an overrated Vandy team and I may think differently

Georgia has also looked like shit against some teams including a fcs team at home. Does that matter ,or is Texas the only one that sucks? We may lose but give em hell. Fuck those guys.

We’re talking about a Georgia team that very easily could have lost 3 of last 4 games. They’re good, but people in here are acting like they are 2000 Miami.

No shit. They are good but so are we. Home field advantage is what they got. Tough game like all of them. The team that protects the qb best and minimizes turnovers will win. Win or lose make those cocksuckers feel it.

We should all realize by now the college game is funny. Sometimes crazy shit happens. I like our chances.

Maybe they kick our asses.

Maybe we kick their asses.

Tee it up and let’s go.

Exactly what I’m saying. I don’t understand the “Georgia will blow us out” thought at all. We may lose, but the path to a blowout isn’t really all that likely IMO.

this goes 2 ways. Huge key for the Texas secondary will be to tackle well. Georgia throws a ton behind the LOS. Tackling was pretty poor vs Vandy. They tackle like that vs Georgia; the Bulldogs will put up 30. 

 

 

I learn so much from watching this guy. He seems like he knows some shit.

btw I never see rail on the refs but in this one he called about 6 holds no flags thrown. 

we are going to get fucked by the refs.

Refs could go many ways

Most likely - simply incompetent, disadvantage usually to the team trying to pull the upset on the road as bad calls stack on top of other challenges the favored home team doesn’t traditionally face  

Somewhat likely - human bias for older guard SEC schools like UGA, disadvantage Texas

Least likely - overt marching orders from SEC home office, advantage Texas as conference looks to maximize CFP teams

I’ve never thought it was the sec office. But a guy who lives in Memphis or Macon and has his own SEC pride from 13 years of reffing and a lifetime of watching SECx3 ain’t exactly wearing the stripes without giving a newcomer reason to worry, and the results on the field and seen on tape only confirm that suspicion.

I usually just ignore the handwringing or overconfidence on these threads, but I feel like the following needs to be said because I have not seen it mentioned: this is a young team.  Maybe not in age, but in game time years.  The number one quality of a young, talented team is schizophrenia.  Hot, cold, then hot again. I don’t know if we will win this weekend, but I have high confidence that this team will start out hot and I hope they have grown up enough to hold on in the second half.

This has been a staple of Sark's.  Get a lead and hold on for dear life.  I see us getting an early 10 point lead and then trying to hold on for dear life to the tune of a 3 point win or loss.  But my heart says Horns by 20.

On November 11, 1955, Texas students gathered at Gregory Gymnasium for a pep rally where head cheerleader Harley Clark declared "This is the official hand sign of The University of Texas, to be used whenever and wherever Longhorns gather.” The hand sign made its debut the next day at the Texas vs. TCU football game, where the Longhorns would go on to win 47-20.

I dunno where this places me on the your scale, but I firmly believe with this defense and even with our offensive issues Texas can beat any team. If Sark pulls his head out of his ass and sticks with the Vandy/OU game plan we will win out and make a CFP run. 

IF.. IF

Is this because of uga or is it a logistical/health issue? If the former, that's some bs.

 

This game has been written off as a loss by everyone nationally, and even by a lot of our own. Are the odds stacked against us? Sure. Have we played well on the road? Nope. But here's the thing-- the first matchup last season was played the week following ou, and being ranked number 1 for the first time in what seemed like forever. The next match-up could've been won with just an added competent kicker. All of you thinking we're just flat out about to get our asses kicked tomorrow need to nut the fuck up. Yes, we very well may lose, but we do have a shot at a W.

Vandy/OU weren't remotely the same game plans.

Can’t wait to see you fuckwads in the game thread. I’m sure there will be tons of support for this team!

“Miserable dickhead” is the easiest position to hold in a sports discussion.  
 

If you are wrong and the team wins, you can say that you are “happy to be wrong.”   If they lose, you get to double down on misery and dickheadedness.   

 

This position requires no conviction, no risk, and no heart.  It sucks the joy and love out of sports fandom.  
 

But I get it.  
 

Some people are just emotionally damaged and can’t allow themselves to invest a little hope into an outcome they don’t control.  

Some people are just contrarians and derive some sense of self worth from standing apart from the main fanbase.  
 

And some are just plain cowards.  
 

Fuck all that… sports are one of the few places in life where you get to experience solidarity with a group of like-minded individuals about something that ultimately does not matter.   
 

Save your fear, negativity, and cowardice for the things that DO matter and reclaim a little childlike joy by going all in for a sports team you love.  
 

This is one of the few areas in life that doesn’t have to be miserable unless you choose to make it miserable.  So choose differently.
