  1. The only way two teams from the same conference are getting in is if FSU does not go undefeated and one of the other conference champs has at least two losses. That could happen, but in that scenario, we are either getting in as a one-loss champ, or will have at least one more loss, so won't deserve a spot. There is no plausible scenario where we win our next two games and are left out over 2 teams from the same conference.
  2. Is FFS your reaction, or are you telling him to crop better for the sake of fuck? Commas, how do they work?
  3. Remember when La Tech was a women's basketball power? Pepperidge Farms remembers, but that's probably about it.
  4. We get the learning benefits of a loss without having to take a loss. A team shouldn't win when shooting 2-17 from behind the arc. Thank goodness our FT% was vastly improved over the last game.
  5. Technically he is a RS sophomore, but having to change systems after the RS year means he's really not even that. Like most of you, I don't understand the premature comparisons to QBs who have vastly more experience and are having career years.
  6. I don't think your scenario for the PAC qualifies as "crazy shit." I'm not saying it will happen, but Oregon St. beating Oregon isn't crazy, and honestly, Arizona beating Washington isn't either. FSU is the more likely path, but there is plenty of meaningful football to be played that will decide this, including by us.
  7. This. Football is a team sport. The only stat that matters is 10-1. Yes we will lose a lot of talent this year. We also have a lot of talent ready fill the void.
  8. I like this thought, and it comes with the added benefit of giving us the opportunity to avenge our one loss, which may be a small factor in whether we make it into the CFP. On the other hand, not getting to play OkSt, means they would be the only left behind team with scoreboard over us, courtesy of their win last season. Ultimately, I care most about beating Tech. If that happens, I won't really give a shit who we play.
  9. X-win Exteban, though I'm hoping for 13-win Ptheven. Should we somehow manage 14 (or 15 in future seasons), we'll have to get creative. From the Debby Downer contingent, while CTJ missed on the number of expected losses as well as the opponents that would be producing them, his prediction that we would lose to at least one of the listed is still in play. Let's hope this isn't a "spike the ball before crossing the goal line" situation.
  10. Age and getting paid are not the same as meaningful experience. '20-'21 Games played as a HS Junior: 8 '21-'22 Games played while getting paid by tOSU: 0 Having zero game experience in a completely different system during his true freshman season likely didn't add much to Quinn's preparedness for his first action as the Longhorns QB. If he is going to be compared to other QBs, it should be limited to those who have started fewer than 20 games, have had injuries that limit games played and effectiveness, and are in their second season under their current coaching staff. I'm not sure who checks all of those boxes, but I suspect that Quinn would favorably compare. Anyone expecting much more than we are getting from him at this point has unrealistic expectations.
  11. Same with that Sosa kid. Neither will amount to anything.
  12. Memphis is actually 19-1, not unbeaten. I misread their record.
  13. In the bottom half of our bracket, unbeaten 6-seed Memphis just took out 3-seed Notre Dame, and awaits the winner of Pitt and Arkansas. Aggie and FSU are scoreless at the 25 minute mark. Live updates of the entire bracket: https://www.ncaa.com/brackets/soccer-women/d1/2023
  14. He's definitely surviving...for now.
  15. I saw it mentioned in another thread somewhere from the beginning of season 1, but not much positive, so I didn't revive it. I'm enjoying it. Neither the acting, nor the the storylines are quite as good as Downton Abby, but that would be difficult to match.
  16. I suspect there is a long line for that task.
  17. Bruce isn't running anything. He has good awareness, and is doing well winning advantages, but the only votes he is steering is when others let him. Drew, Emily, and Dee are playing winning games, with Austin and Julie in positions to make moves. Bruce will go as far as his advantages take him. People can win doing that, but it's the more difficult path. He may have to become a "take them to the end because they can't win" person to save himself at some point, but I don't think that is his game.
  18. Agreed. Good episode, though I'm really tired of "come on, Dad; hurry, Dad; come on, Dad."
  19. Clearly the men's and women's teams are sharing the same FT coach.
  20. Well that sucks. I really thought DeGrom was going to win it.
