  1. lol "utjr" that's an odd way to refer to your daddy
  2. I don't understand this suggestion. What does this mean, "bud light... actually enjoy?" I don't think those words should be sharing a sentence together
  3. Bob Stoops hired Mike Leach for the same reason. It's what good coaches do: Hire the person you'd least like to play against.
  4. This video is fantastic. Some of the highlights: Ewers looked bad at first, but SOME of that can be attributed to the way OU would show one coverage pre-snap, then do another after snap. It's an elite defensive scheme that OU executed perfectly. But if Michigan-level Ewers showed up, all the schemes left open guys anyway. Our running game can, and does, attack every gap, and all from the same formation. tldr we have made a couple of elite defenses look silly; if Ewers looks anything like he did against Michigan, Georgia is gonna have a bad time
  5. There's some great YouTube channels to learn. Brett Kollmann (https://youtube.com/@brettkollmann?si=HSo59h1sM2wK27oc) is terrific for defense schemes and general things. Kurt Warner is a bit dry, but goes really deep into reviewing QB play (https://youtube.com/@kurtwarnerqbc?si=zcT2_hZZkxb5VSF_). You can also check out AFCA Coaching Bibles, where AFCA presentations are printed for folks to read. I realized this same as you did a couple decades ago, and it has really made watching football a better experience for me.
  6. yeah now that I remember $300 is way too high But it was a LONG time ago; I don't remember at all how much it was. Ya got a sticker to put on your student ID!
  7. I think you spent a pittance at the beginning of the year ($300?) for a season pass to all sporting events, but then you had to do a lottery thing to get the actual seat for football. It wasn't popular. We'd sucked for a while and would continue to until Mack showed up.
  8. My son introduced me to it. A fun game to play is to notice the gags they sneak in. Like in today's video, when they demonstrate how to play Geoguessr, quietly showing very obviously wrong answers. Or whenever there's something written in a notebook, on screen for a split second, and you see a ton of hilarious messages in there.
  9. Rick Beato. There's a whole thread elsewhere dedicated to his channel, and deservedly so. He gets guests nobody else has been able to interview, and asks intelligent questions that nobody else asks. Kitboga. Scamming the scammers for fun and profit.

  10. If you gimme an excuse to talk about that game, well by gum I'm gonna talk about that game. I was a Sr in High School, my big brother a Sophomore at UT, it was my first ever home game and it cemented my fandom for life.
  11. @BurntOrange&White Just listen how loud this was on the broadcast, especially when Houston had the ball and Texas was on D, and remember: 1. it was a horseshoe that let sound fly away 2. 77,809 capacity, 3/4ths the size it is today 3. even when we were up 42-10 the crowd didn't let up
  12. That's like bragging that a Strat plugged into a Marshall stack is consistently as loud as an (acoustic, unamplified) violin. Sure, wow, you've got 100W of power that makes you AS loud as Mr. Bell sawing away over there... All you're doing is making what happened in '90 more impressive by comparison.
  13. Because Houston 1990 we didn't have any of that, and yet it was deafening. Legendary atmosphere in a stadium that wasn't built for it. Also, other than MSU a couple weeks back, I haven't seen a game in person since Colt McCoy suited up. It's been a while. I guess Fastball was busy? titty bingo was booked solid
  14. i want houston '90 energy back when the stadium was still a horseshoe and all the sound would fly away, and yet it was the loudest game I ever saw until the CDC era
  15. 1. Never trust an OC's record when he's had an NFL caliber QB. 2. Never trust a DC's record when he's had NFL caliber LBs. 3. 😁
  16. I mean this guy could also pass for the Notre Dame mascot, hence the confusion.
  17. It's easy to keep such things partitioned when they don't affect you, when a certain party is blasting ads every hour saying that you, you specifically, you in particular, are the source of all of the evils this country faces. I'm personally gonna cut @troph a little slack here, but any of you other fuckers bring shit up I'm gonna neg/report.
  18. not even remotely sorry if this has already been posted "We're gon' wear out this GREEN one too, aren't we?"
  19. Looking at his resume, I suspect he may have been the beneficiary of some offensive-minded head coaches. And if he's running raw Leach Spread shit, that offense has more or less been figured out by DC's if it doesn't include a well-designed run game. And as we're seeing from some of these clips, OU's run game is not very well designed. I hope BV gives him an extension and a raise.
  20. this is some Greg Davis level bullshit justification right here and I'm here for it
  21. Meanwhile, at the University Co-Op: https://www.threads.net/@universitycoop/post/DBHMpLgqBgR?xmt=AQGz2Ko4tO-myHgdBwqg9rEhfS0CmLmfSVpnS3W-mqfQKA
