  1. A lot of people picked up pollard and he might win them the week. 28 half ppr points. Against the 5th ranked run d. Hmmm, maybe he should get more carries when feed me comes back.
  2. Pollard should starts
  3. Please, sweet baby Jesus. Let Mack brown go in and beat the brakes off of aggy just like old times. Some things are just meant to be. Mack owning aggy should be one of those things.
  4. I don’t think I’m in the minority on this one, but now that the playoffs are a thing, all the other bowls are meaningless exhibition games. We’ve been down for such a long time and we were playing a team in the top 5. Georgia just got left at the altar when they felt like they got robbed out of a chance to play for a national title. Plus they were playing a team they probably thought they could give a B effort against and win (that’s just my opinion. No way to prove that). I think it’s reasonable to assume we were a lot more hyped up to play that game. Plus, Herman tends to get his teams amped up to play in games like that for whatever reason. Just my opinion. Don’t mean to derail this thread. Let’s get back to Matt Campbell getting us back to being consistently 9-4.
  5. So you’re really comparing your original scenario to a team playing their biggest rival in a regular season game with the big 12 still on the line? I don’t really know how to respond to that. It’s such an apples to oranges comparison that I guess I’m just going to let that opinion sit...
  6. Explain how we could possibly beat OSU in the 2009 Fiesta Bowl? We were a lot better than them. A lot better. And we squeaked by if I remember correctly. But hand up, maybe I don’t remember correctly and I’m sure as shit not going to look it up. Georgia was pretty overrated the year we beat them too. A lot of sec sec bias. Jake Fromm might be the most overrated qb in the history of college football. How he forced Justin fields hand and made him transfer is beyond me.
  7. There’s no point in even responding to that ridiculous take. It couldn’t be further from the truth. Anyone with common sense knows that teams get amped up to play us. The vast majority of kids in the big 12 are from Texas. So there’s a good chance you grew up as either a Longhorns fan or an aggy fan. If you were a horns fan and you didn’t even get a look, you’re going to have a chip on your shoulder and you’re going to want to prove us wrong. If you grew up an aggy fan, well that’s self explanatory.
  8. You’re probably right about that, but I’ve already admitted to that numerous times in this thread.
  9. Well Georgia wasn’t because they just got left out of the playoffs. Nobody would be in that scenario.
  10. Believe what you want, but everyone still gets amped up to play us. We will never “sneak up” on anyone. Kids still want to come here, and the recruiting shows that. But hey man, believe what you want to believe. I bet you don’t think kids get amped up to play USC either, do you lol? Also, I’m probably the most pessimistic, jaded cowboys fan in the world. I will never be an obnoxious cowboys fan until we win again, and I doubt that ever happens.
  11. None that are even remotely as good as this job. Auburn isn’t a better job. Michigan isn’t a better job. What other openings are we going to see? Maybe I’m just drawing a blank. He’d take this job before we said “Matt, we’d like to offer you..”
  12. Let’s revisit this question and throw Tony pollard in the mix. Still swift? I feel like pollard is the only one not splitting carries but I’m not sure that matters
  13. I don’t know, I think he likes money. And these coaches have such a big ego, that I’m she’s he thinks he could get the most out of this program. He would take the job if offered.
  14. Another thing in regards to the expectations. You’re getting everyone’s best game when you’re at Texas. They’re hyped as shit to play the team that didn’t recruit them. Teams probably want to curb stomp us more than any other team in the big 12. Teams can fall into a trap and sleep walk during a game against Iowa state. It’s hard to get hyped up for an 11am game in Ames, Iowa. He’s gonna come here and be like “why does it seem like everyone is playing harder against us. These are the same teams. I never dealt with this at Iowa state”.
  15. I’m down to sign up for 5 years of slightly above average football with Campbell. Fuck it. Let’s do it. It’s the best we can do because we’re Texas
  16. I love how the one week I’m playing against Aaron jones he just goes the fuck off.
  17. Honestly it isn’t really about the HC experience. If you’re a high level coordinator at a blue blood school, you’ve dealt with that pressure. You’ve recruited big time players. You’ve coached in huge games. Campbell has none of that shit. He hasn’t coached and won a big game in his life. I’d take Joe Brady before Matt Campbell in a heartbeat and I still think we could do better
  18. That’s exactly why I wouldn’t mind giving shit head Herman another wasted year. See who’s available next year. Next year is gonna be fucked whether we have Herman or Campbell.
  19. I don’t know. All I know is if aggy can get a coach like Jimbo fisher, we can do better. And I’m not sure that I think fisher is really that good of a coach but he can recruit like a mother fucker and he’s had success at a big time program. I’m halfway kidding when I say this, but I’d almost rather just give Herman another lame duck year and take our chances at the pool of coaches next year. Because there has to be someone more qualified than him.
  20. If we offered him that job tomorrow he’d be here by Monday. Campbell doesn’t give a fuck about staying in conference, and if he does he isn’t very smart
  21. I just think you aren’t accounting for how crippling expectations can be when you’ve never had to deal with them before, and you've never won a big game. He can do that at Iowa state and get a lifetime contract. If he goes 7-5 in year one, he’s already on the hot seat here. Then he’ll start pressing, because that’s generally what happens when expectations aren’t met, and the pressure starts to mount. A 1/3 of the fan base will turn on him, and the others will make excuses like “we just need a new OC. Then we’ll be back”. I can’t wait. I just want to be above average again. Campbell can probably make that happen
  22. He’s better than Herman. That isn’t saying much. But Campbell isn’t going to get us where we want to be and where we should be every year. But hey, we’ve been so bad last decade that maybe we should all be content with 9-3 every year and never making a playoff. I don’t know why I was over here thinking we could be some National championship contender on a yearly basis. Probably unrealistic. I mean, we are Texas, we have a shit load of money, and Texas is a recruiting hot bed. But asking for Mack brown level success is probably just unrealistic since we aren’t a football school anymore
  23. We should be in the big 12 championship every year, and be in the mix for a BCS bowl at the very least every single year. There’s no reason we shouldn’t be the teams in bold every single year. We have such a big advantage over every team in this conference, including OU.
  24. I mean shit, I bet he’d get on his knees and beg for this job.
  25. Hopefully you went with Allen
