  1. Apparently Phoenix really likes Chili's.
  2. @Zonahorn Any news on Arizona?
  3. South Carolina would have beaten LSU if not for the refs. It was really bad.
  4. It's South Carolina. Rush the field when you can get it.
  5. Might be just me, but I love the rooster crow. It's fucking awesome.
  6. Never bet against either.
  7. Anybody have any idea what type of turnout to be expecting in the swing states?
  8. Polls are a mess right now.
  9. Definitely at odds with the rest of them.
  10. Just the congenital micropenis.
  11. I should add that my response regards upper administration specifically. Faculty primarily care about their specific department and closely related ones. I could easily see faculty jumping to Emory, depending on funding, course load, graduate student support, etc. Private schools can be much more flexible on those.
  12. I am fully aware Emory is ranked higher and stand by what I said. Emory is a great small school. There's nothing wrong with that, but UT is a small city cranking out elite research in nearly every department. Politics aside, most wouldn't leave UT for Emory.
  13. Hartzell is definitely a toady, and likely a true believer. Perry and Abbott have been working a very long time to destroy UT. Texas to Emory is not even close to a lateral move though. Emory is a good school, but it's a massive step down for Fenves. No one would do that unless they REALLY wanted out of a toxic environment.
  14. Big Macs are still okay, right?
  15. Jerry's face does look he's letting all that plastic get a little too close to the fire.
  16. aka Jurassic Pox, or Lagerstätte Lesions.
  17. Our fans showed why the state of Texas produces so many quarterbacks.
  18. We're going to need you to mow the lawn during every Texas game. There's probably enough in the wreath fund for some extra weed eater string, so go nuts around the edges.
  19. If we were having this conversation 10 years ago, I think almost all of us would agree with you, but we're through the mercenary/minor league looking glass. This isn't about student athletes anymore. It isn't about being a good sport. It's about a metric fuckton of money. The embarrassing part is that the SEC refs thought they could blatantly fuck us without any repercussions. There is way too much money on the line now to allow that bullshit. If it keeps happening, it might be time to hire a retired ref to conduct independent reviews and grade the officiating. Honestly, the idea of conference refs is stupid in this era of huge money. The ACC is openly fixing Miami's games.
  20. It exposed an egregious and intentional screw job that the SEC wants kept quiet. Bottles raining down guaranteed media attention.
