  1. This is dumb, even for aggy. Beating OU should only be half a win.
  2. Were they numbered uno, dos, tres, catorce?
  3. I guess I should have included a graphic.
  4. Was that the one that ended up in Alabama?
  5. No, create a 3-way tie. Tech was undefeated at that time. Texas had one loss (Tech) and OU had one loss (Texas). If Tech had won, they would have been the South champs at 12-0 (8-0 conference) and OU would have been 10-2 (6-2). We needed OU to win so that there would be a 3-way tie. The tiebreaker formula came down to the 5th step : highest ranking in the BCS poll. OU was second at .9351 and Texas was third at .9223. As others have said, a few votes in the coaches' poll ranked Texas unfairly low, and that was enough to make the difference.
  6. Parker Livingstone disagrees.
  7. While I generally share the sentiment about OU, the fact remains that the ONLY chance we had was for Tech to lose. Period. I wanted Texas to win the MNC and I was astute enough to realize OU had to beat Tech for that to happen. I sure didn't want Tech to look like West Texas roadkill and for OU to win in a blowout, which is what happened. Even then, the final BCS result was microscopically thin. I rooted for the only outcome which could help Texas, a Tech loss. I didn't feel like an idiot then nor do I feel like one now.
  8. Tech was undefeated and would have been the South Division champs if they beat OU leaving us on the outside looking in. We needed Tech to win to force the three way tie. One of the only times in my life I rooted for OU.
  9. I'm suddenly feeling better about the midterms.
  10. That is the exact score the usher in our section predicted when I passed by him before the game. Was that you?
  11. That game is where Arch's running and scrambling ability will be crucial.
  12. Well, then we know the Dotard didn't write it.
  13. Well, to be fair, he did say it was written by some deranged bastard.
