  1. I've got no problem with Holtz being called out. He was unquestionably one of the dirtiest coaches of his time, leaving schools for better opportunities just before the next administration was dealt sanctions for shit done under his watch. But he parlayed that ND championship into his image as the Resolute and Honorable Coach of Yesteryear on TV for decades. He's probably a lot closer to Paterno than anyone wants to admit or investigate.
  2. I've never seen a team with a more chronic case of fumblitis than the Vikings at the start of this season. This is insane.
  3. Trending towards Misery in the USA Today Misery Index
  4. And just like that, my aggy BIL who was dog cussing the team, coaches, trainers...everyone but Reveille after the Miami game is now texting me and claiming that was just a "goof" and "the real team is taking shape." Click clack, click clack, click clack.
  5. So what's it gonna take to lift the curse? A midnight burnt offering at Hell's Gate? Shipping a treasure chest of back pay to Leach's family? Joey M starts wearing grills and kissing players when they run out onto the field? Wait...scratch that last suggestion.
  6. It was the win over Texas and OU in the same season--a feat never before accomplished by tech--that got their hype train rolling. At 1-3/0-1 they're in standard tech territory. They get Cougar High at home next week to lick their wounds. Then it's at Baylor, home vs KSU and at BYU to finish October. If they go worse than 2-2 in that stretch then you can dig a hole west of Lubbock to bury their season.
  7. Went to Morgantown, took the L, and lost their starting QB Shough fractured fibula
  8. Another turnover on downs by the D. Take a bow, men. [emoji869][emoji869][emoji869]
  9. What's the biggest loss Baylor has taken at McLane stadium? Let's set that mark on the way out.
