  1. I'm in the minority in that I think NDs defensive package could cause issues for our offense. I think Texas would have matched up better with PSU. Neither of them matches up well against Ohio State. Football is about match ups. OSU and Texas match up pretty well against ND and better against PSU. So that and throwing on the burnt orange glasses = blow out But I'm a raging pussy so..
  2. I don't think it was panic because the same thing happened with a bigger lead against Boise. If Franklin keeps running in that game PSU may have won by 4 TDs. Use more clock and wear Boises small D down more. So it was essentially a mirror of ND. It's just bad "over thinking" head coaching and if I'm honest I'm of the opinion Sark does it some to, just not to near the same bone headed level as Franklin. Edit - It reminds me more of FUPM reaction to big games. Have a lead, x is working but y helps protect the lead and I'm smart. I'll do that! More worried about losing and looking dumb than taking what is given and working.
  3. And PSU was running fairly well, but Franklin started passing the ball... because.. ? At least that's what I recall. Franklin did a similar thing against Boise. Kept it closer than it had to be. Should have run them out of the building. 2 fumbles by NFL first round draft pick Allar didn't help though. If my recollection is hazy I'm sure I'll be corrected.
  4. In fairness, we can't know for sure whether or not some of Allar's passes were intended for WRs.
  5. Ftfy
  6. Well it's 2 parts really. First, Texas has been hurribad at halftime adjustments all year. Our 3rd quarters have been...um less than productive. Second not related to my first post Franklin, sadly somewhat like Sark, tends to go away from things that are working well. "Over thinks" his offense and wants to check certain boxes cause.. who knows why but probably ego
  7. Have to admit, those sorts of stats give me pause in a possible future opponent. By that everyone knows I mean the 3rd quarter.
  8. Phrasing. I mean, according to the record he offered and was rejected. And.. in retrospect, who's really the winner in that transaction(or lack thereof) given who was offered.. really....
  9. Oh yeah, in case we're keeping score, I'd absolutely hit that GILF Gabbie (Who's really just a peer given my age), and in a perfect work maybe get a neaplitan sammich kicked up with the BBG Joy. Thristy? You bet! It's what plants crave.
  10. Some folks just buy unearned media hype and it's like a virus. Dick Cumming at ESPn "Allar is heisman worthy". Joy Cumdumpster at Fox "I really think Allar is one of the best QBs out there and certainly the best left in the playoffs"
  11. My bad, you're right. Gotta hit a punter too.. that's on the menu
  12. Both PSU's and ND's ST play is extremely triggering. I'm fucking sure a missed 3 field goal is coming soon.
  13. Lol Texas fan mocking someone else's special teams.. it's sad that it's funny and they aren't wrong
  14. Well they could fucking start. Sometimes you have to align to the needs of the circumstances.
  15. Wait.. I... Is this insinuating (putting it nicely) that racial diversity hiring practices are somehow related to the damage/deaths caused by the fires? Yeah.. that's it, and not the 100+ mph winds and long drought.
  16. I'm in no way defending nor pulling for Russia here but I will point out a lot of those dead Russian soldiers were just every day Joes or Ivans if you prefer. I'm happy for the Ukrainian people for prevailing, and the dead were fighting on the side of a meglomeniacal tyrant. Still, it's wasted lives that didn't have to be and I'll never be happy about that reality. Nearly 1 million fucking humans, some of which were definitely bad guys that needed to die, but mostly fuck Putin. It's sad all the way around.
  17. You aluded to it, and anyone who wasn't watching pretty closely won't know, but PSU deserves more of the credit for a close score than Boise. PSU keeps rushing the ball (at 7 ypc, IIRC) that game gets really, really ugly. For reasons known only to James Franklin they decided to go to "run and shoot" (I'm being silly), but they did start just passing and despite the rushing success and passing futility, kept passing. Sark shit the bed worse, but Franklin's coaching was a not TOO distant second.
  18. That doesn't remind me of any coaches in Texas' past at all. :::triggered:::
  19. It is a very Chicago Bears sort of move. As a Cowboys fan who lived in Chicago for 10 years... I sadly relate to their fans. But.. Chicago has played in a Super Bowl since Troy Aikman retired.
  20. Look you idgit is LOL.. not the fucking Morom Latter Day Laughs (which are most comprised of very G rated dad jokes) Fixed for accuracy.
  21. Can you or someone else refresh my memory, because it's admittedly bad, but when was the last time Russian land was invade by NATO countries. I'm sure there are lots of examples that I'm just forgetting.
  22. Yeah, I like the vast majority of folks here and follow some good artists on social media. However, if I was snow skiing in the Andes, riding a motorcycle in Australia, chartering a sail boat through the Greek Islands and generally tried to get laid as frequently as possible, I'd post a LOT less.
