  1. These two teams understood the “minor bowl game on a Tuesday night” assignment.
  2. UMass ran for 5.7 ypc on 40 carries against Georgia two weeks before the SEC Championship game. UMass. Maybe Hayden Conner isn't very good, but I refuse to believe that UMass has 5 OL better than Hayden Conner. It wasn't about having to respect a running QB, either. UMass's QB had 6 rushes for 23 yards (long of 10) not including sacks. He's not a running threat at all. Every Longhorn fan is all aboard the Sark train, and rightly so, but it seems to me that Kirby has outcoached the shit out of us twice so far this year. Put some blame on Flood and Choice as well.
  3. Glad to see OU fans are doing well
  4. Our 4 man rotation this year is two homegrown difference makers who will be NFL draft picks, and two steady but unremarkable portal bodies. It’s very doable for us to land 3-4 of the latter types again this year, but it’s far from given that Alfred Collins-level players will even be in the portal, much less that we’ll be the high bidder. So we could be deeper I guess, but highly unlikely that we’ll be better. The 2025 recruits will need more time to get to that level.
  5. How come Finkley never developed? He was a big recruiting win over Bama IIRC.
  6. It's (fully healthy) Shohei Ohtani versus Aaron Judge. Sure, Judge is technically a better hitter, but a guy being a top 10 player on both sides of the ball is completely unprecedented.
  7. The one you quoted is hard to beat. Michael Caine absolutely acting his ass off with a completely straight face while the muppets do muppet things around him is a big part of the magic that makes that movie great. He never winks at the camera one single time.
  8. Maybe to take Hudson Card back?
  9. Purdue guys pulling up like
  10. I'm more and more sure every day that "Hayes Fawcett" was and is just some early beta version of AI image generators. We need to start counting fingers on these tweets.
  11. Late to the party I'm sure but what I've learned in the last few weeks is that whatever Doechii is up to, I'm all in. She's incredible. One of the most exciting new rappers I've heard in a long time. This performance on Colbert is amazing. Her feature was my favorite song on Tyler's new album, too.
  12. Maybe a dumb question because I've never done this before but what is the point of the confidence points? Is one game really worth 40x what another game is worth? What's to keep someone from just going all chalk and putting them in reverse order of the point spread?
  13. Fucking horrible. First Brooks, now this.
  14. 100%. The eye test may have told a different story at times, but someone is going to see 3000 yards, 26/12 ratio, leading Duke to a 9-3 record, and great physical tools in a RS-Sophomore and feel like that's something they can absolutely work with. People underestimate how many truly shitty QBs there are out there. Maalik has shown that he's already in, what, the top 25% of FBS QBs? Maybe higher? He either was straight up tampered with by someone, or at minimum was hearing heavily from programs and NIL agents. He's going to do well. And honestly, good for him. Sucks for Duke but that's just the way of the world now. I'm definitely still rooting for the guy.
  15. Jeanty is great and would be a worthy winner, but how can it not be Hunter?
  16. He’ll probably end up in Philly on a below market deal and get 25 sacks next year.
  17. Maalik Murphy single handedly unfucks...TBD.
  18. Didn't see that coming. Someone recruited him into the portal I guess?
  19. It's a good thing for them that no one else will be looking for quality players in the portal.
  20. I'm holding a couple Oregon options that are in the black right now. Trying to decide the smartest time to sell, since if those options end up cashing, I don't have any interest in actually going to the game. All my other modest holdings are on the opposite side of the bracket.
  21. I thought Dewberry was a starter for them, no? Am I thinking of someone else? Regarding Akana, has he played any this year, even special teams? I don't remember seeing him out there. Defensive players rotate a fair amount. If a guy's not getting some snaps by his 2nd year in the program it probably ain't happening.
  22. I think it’s pretty safe to assume there will be some attrition among the names you listed.
  23. All of our recruits have multiple knees, except that OL Mack recruited once.
  24. Can someone answer why the selection committee would give a fuck about Beck's arm when Georgia appeared to be a better team without him?
  25. You've done quite well then. I'm holding a few speculative plays, but never could bring myself to pull the trigger on any Texas.
