  1. Remember when a Big XII team missed a playoff because of perception. Look, pulling for your conference team mates to do well against other conferences in the CFP is simple self preservation. Having any positive bias in media view is a bonus. There is a shit ton of subjectivity in the CFP process. Do you remember all the fans here yelling about how we should be #5... and we were. Well, it sure as shit doesn't if we played in the Big XII. Just ask Iowa State. Actively hoping your conference loses is self sabotage. It hurts Texas in the long run when SEC teams lose in bowls and the CFP. 4 ACC teams made it in. That's due to a goofy media bias. I'm not preaching go full SECSECSEC. Just, ya know, pull for things that are good for Texas long term. That this reality is lost on Texas fans after being in the Big XII is flat out amazing. Particularly when it lands them pulling for OSU. Ohio fucking State University. That is flat out regarded.
  2. Tennessee will make a run. They'll make it close again before OSU pulls away. It's what they've done in nearly every loss. It's weird but consistent.
  3. I really don't know that I've seen a coach better at killing the teams momentum than Sark. Mostly, it's directly tied to 1 aspect, consistently. Something is working (whatever that might be) and then he just inexplicably abandons whatever that might be. Usually, it happen about halfway through the second, and continues all the way through the 3rd. Then somewhere in the 4th quarter he goes back to whatever was working in the 1st and early 2nd. Then we put the game away. Over and over. Every fucking game. It's maddening and mind bottling.
  4. Fair enough. I think it's a FUMB vs Ousux situation for Day. Best reason/logic I got. However, I disagree with you a bit. I'm certain that most here have watched enough football to understand my matchups point, the posts I read don't reflect that they actually DO. 😉
  5. Fixed. We don't want OSU. Bad, bad match up.
  6. Can we discuss this game in this thread maybe?
  7. Football is about matchups, athleticism, scheme and emotion (momentum). Too many people don't understand this simple reality.
  8. *Has And we lost to Georgia twice and Vandy, despite being out classed played us close. ND would be a challenge for Texas. I don't know what else to tell you.
  9. This, fuck the 12 teams. Let's go to a 2 team playoff. That will fix everything. Jesus this shit is worse than NCAA basketball tourney nonsense. Please take the CFP whining to the CFP crying thread. Oh no, we've got more college football and not all of them are close games. We are actually deciding it on the field instead of letting mediots decide. This is terrible. FML!!!
  10. You're wrong. ND has a defense that is very similar to Georgia regarding speed and scheme. How'd that work out? Twice? Pedo U doesn't worry me. OSU, Oregon, Georgia and ND concern me. Oregon mostly cause that's gonna require a lot of points and they play better D than Clemson.
  11. ND isn't that good, but yeah they're probably #5 or 6. Texas does NOT match up well against ND strengths though. They are a better running team with more mobile QB than Georgia with a similar D speed.
  12. OSU and Oregon are the best 2 teams, top to bottom, playing right now. Georgia is probably 2B.
  13. That's a weird ass take. Pulling for ND and OSU just to be against SEC... nah man. They ain't right. You need to get your fucking head straight.
  14. Blame SMU for losing to Clemson. Or just say fuck em all and blame the Shitty ACC.
  15. I hate OSU.. but living in Tennessee and with Heuple coaching.. so many "The Other UT"(s) when wearing Texas gear. I'm gonna lean with my TShirt Michigan self and say fuck OSU, even though I think OSU probably wins. Tennessee folds if they're made 1 dimensional offensively and I think OSU will do just that.
  16. Holy shit man! I'm so sorry I suggested it. Mostly cause you probably have a list of wants from Nordstrom Rack now, that you'll need to buy for a "Happy Holiday Season".
  17. Oh what a shit call to end the game refs. Run The Ball Sark!!!
  18. He's bitching to the refs about NIL already. Have to start the campaign early man.
  19. That wouldn't have been brilliant or cute though. Why be so lame.
  20. You say that like it bothers you. BTW, it's not the first time this season. He really is bad at clock management.
