Middle of the pack teams like OSU are in a better position now than they’ve ever been. Win your conference and you’re guaranteed a spot in the national title playoffs. A top 10 regular season finish makes it highly likely as well. This is miles better than the BCS and early CFP eras where only the blue bloods had an honest chance.
He’s just upset that his team is massively underperforming and that OU/UT are gone, leaving him without a boogeyman to blame his suckage on.
Oh yeah? Well if you exclude (bunch of random years with no justification) and subtract 7 points from tu’s score to account for biased refs and media conspiracy then you’ll find that it’s actually aggy that has dominated the series.
TexAgs is predictably handling this all quite well:
End universal suffrage or the masses will vote us into socialism and then communism. Letting every idiot vote was the real issue. They outnumber us. It is just math at this point.
Make a portion of the media revenue available as a bonus to the conference winner. If FSU and Clemson are so far ahead of their conference mates as they believe, it shouldn’t be an issue for them to get SEC money.
I mostly agree, but did you really cite Houston weather as a motivating factor? We are about 4-5 months removed from a scorching hellscape and will probably get another one in 3 more.
I totally understand Slowik and Johnson’s decisions here. When you’re looking at taking your shot with a team like the Commanders or spending another year working with Stroud and Ryans, then getting another shot the following year it just makes sense. If you flame out with one of those dysfunctional franchises you may never get a second chance.
I agree, but Helm is also pretty good. Having him come back for his senior year is going to set us up pretty well at the position. I wouldn’t be opposed to a portal / grad transfer at the position since it doesn’t seem like any of the other sophomores or juniors have stepped up though.
I think we would be unwise to assume an easy game. OSU comes prepared to play against us, usually.
That being said, Vegas has the line at -15 for a reason.
