  1. All of this. I've been critical of Sark at times, but I am overall a believer, still. But I don't understand how you let this offensive line happen in the transfer era with almost unlimited NIL resources. What is the point of all the 5- and 4-star skill guys when you're going to lose in the trenches every weekend? How does an offensive guru not understand that if you can't block, you can't do anything else? The same way that a misplayed poker hand can sometimes still win the pot, all of this needs to be reevaluated no matter how it turns out.
  2. It's interesting that the two most important documents in human history, per about 100 million Americans, are the Bible and the Constitution, and they don't know or care what's in either one.
  3. Does this mean Ann-Marget's NOT coming?
  4. This was my initial thought as well, and I actually had this conversation with a friend. If I had to guess at this point, I'd say we're going to lose to Georgia and split with Vandy and aggy. That would leave us 8-4 and headed to a bowl game instead of the playoff. While that is a huge letdown after starting the season #1, it's not 5-7, and we're not in that old era of multi-year rebuilds. We should have no problem coming into next year with a greatly improved O line and a more mature WR room and starting QB. So, I don't think there's any way that this season is as bad as 2010. That was the beginning of a dozen years of being a national punchline, with a coach who no longer gave a shit. Now, we should be right back to being a playoff contender next season.
  5. He needs to fire himself as play caller, and I don't think he will.
  6. Yeah, he goes through stretches where he's worthless. I don't get it, either. I just don't understand why anyone assumes a completely unproven backup is going to fare any better in this overall offense right now.
  7. Yeah, but a lot of the problems in this offense aren't going to magically get better with a new QB. The offensive line doesn't magically become decent, the running backs don't magically become durable, etc. And while Caldwell or Lacey hit a lot of the throws Arch has missed, Arch has hit throws that they probably don't. How many 3rd down conversions did Arch have last week in the biggest game of the year, under pressure? Beating Arch up for his shortcomings is fair, but give him credit for the flashes of brilliance, too. He's just a young QB having an up and down year. But he still has the most upside of the QBs on this roster, probably by a lot.
  8. Last year everybody wanted Arch. People thought Sark fucked us out of a national championship by not playing Arch over Quinn. Now everybody wants Caldwell over Arch. Apparently all of our backups are Tom Brady at Michigan, just waiting for his shot.
  9. Just got back from Pluckers. Pretty sure that was the least fun I have ever had watching a Texas win. Blech.
  10. Uh, that might be the catch of the year.
  11. Foreigners are bad, mkay?!
  12. Sure, but the whole point is that aggy is a different team home and road. And aggy did get knocked off like 5 times after that. They still have 3 very difficult road games, and 2 home games that they could find a way to split. They're aggy. 8-4's magnetic pull on them is real.
  13. I dunno, man, Mizzou hung with Bama, and I think Bama's better than aggy. Aggy gets LSU and Mizzou on the road, and I think they'll drop them both. Everything aggy's done so far has been at home, and that defense is suspect.
  14. LSU having not yet discovered the QB spy is holding them back here. Pretty sure we know what that is.
  15. I hope I can go piss and get back in time for the LSU interception.
  16. Yeah, Pavia's gonna be the first fatality at DKR.
  17. I knew it.
  18. Next you'll tell me that they suck, too.
  19. Vandy is legit, but I think we might end Pavia's season.
  20. Yeah, people with college degrees who've been watching football for 40+ years and want good analysis? Yeah, no, this is college football for the people who watch The Ultimate Fighter and boo during the grappling parts.
  21. Corso should have been put out to pasture 10 years ago, but he is still better than Pat McAfee's goofy ass. The only way to make this show go downhill faster at this point would be to add Stephen A Smith. Which I'm sure they're discussing.
  22. I think it's easy to dismiss this Santos pardon as just another instance of a crooked president doing a favor for a crooked guy, as long as that guy declares loyalty. It is that, but it's also a crooked president vetoing his own Justice Department's ruling. He's making it clear to everyone that he believes his will and judgment are all that matters. No more checks and balances. No more co-equal branches of government. He alone is the center of power in this country. And he's getting away with it, over and over.
  23. Bless your heart.
  24. The fact that ou employs a guy named Joe Jon Finley is the least surprising thing ever, except for maybe the fact that he sucks.
