  1. Yep... Tech and BSU are the real teams to beat. This map amuses the shit out of me.
  2. And I know we are all aware I'm well regarded, but that it appears people may have thought I was serious about not playing in the SEC champ game if Texas wins all it's games.
  3. Missouri is one of those teams I can't buy either. I have an extremely illogical concern about Florida. I just can't get over it. It makes zero sense but it looms in my head. I'm guessing its based on their performance in 80s and 90s when I really got into college football which is creating that dumb ass bias.
  4. Good to know. I really think Kentucky is going to do more damage this year than people think. As far as tie breakers go, losses Georgia and Kentucky are the ones least likely to fuck us I think.
  5. I come at it with a bit different mindset. Mostly, right now, what's really on my mind and what I truly care about is curb stomping ousux. I know.. I'm an idiot, but I get paid a lot of money in pesos for my hard work.
  6. Or... and I'm just spit balling here so stick with me.. there is.. and I know it sounds stupid at first.. the alternative. We just win them all and let God sort it out.
  7. Voluminous Shit Howizer is either a great band name or a book I'm ready to read.
  8. Nothing at all, I was being pedantic, sarcastic and regarded all at the same time. It's a pretty magical combination I'm able to pull off in my own mind.
  9. This is made up garbage. Simmons was near perfect in actually pulling a blocker, he had a handful of plays in the first half where he was a second too late on decisions and maybe another 2-3 plays where it looked like he pulled it into the wrong way, but other than that, he was nails. Yeah, he is a little slow in picking up clear extra edge defenders, but again RB blitz pickup is beyond awful, on a PA-pass if you have a free rusher you have to adjust your angle to pickup if that is your assignment. Look, there were also a couple plays Simmon should have pulled better, but not sure where he is in that freedom--plus one was for sure in the 4th when Sark was probably insistent to stay in run calls--even if we should have switched to a different run.
  10. 1) I know you missed it but the post was specifically talking about Sarks choices to take points off the board. 2) Please tell me the EXACT words you would use to describe Arch's pass on 4th and 4 immediately after we took point off the board. Note, you may not use "A TAD OFF" nor any facsimile of that specific language I chose to use in my post. I'll hang up and listen.
  11. I thought WE got a penalty for that... am I remembering wrong?
  12. It would be even funnier if it weren't so fucking familiar. No lead ever felt safe with Mack outside when Vince was playing. Even then... it was in the back of my mind.
  13. That's what honestly has to give the ousux D staff issues. Very heavy odds are Quinn will start, but they still have to be mindful that he MIGHT not. (It'll be Quinn 99.9% but...)
  14. Yeah.. first it was a TD by Arch or at worst inside the 1. Then a sneak which was a TD. Then Wisner should have been at the 1 yard line iirc Every single call outside the final TD call was incorrect. Pretty impressive.
  15. Well, here's the thing about Brett McMurphy. Did you know the Murphy name is derived from the Irish personal name "Murchadh", which meant sea-warrior or sea-battler. As for the Mic portion, that comes from the Gaelic word mac, which means "son of". So, as such we can safely assume that Brett's father was a Navy Veteran likely during World War Two.
  16. You're asking us to justify that spot that should have been either A) a TD or B) inside the 1 foot line? Well... I can't.
  17. Well, you can't hold our coaching staff responsible for the camera work. Reflecting upon that reality, I need to pull more for USC to win games and make the playoffs. I don't see ASU being worth my efforts at this point.
  18. ESPiN always drives a narrative. Recently, its been how dominating Texas has been. The final score of our game, coupled by the tight top 5 match up of UGA v Bama isn't enough to flip the script entirely given the final score of the Texas game. How that effects the idiots that vote in AP is TBD, because, in no uncertain terms, there are a lot of idiots with ballots.
  19. Perhaps I missed it, but are there a lot of doom and gloom post here in this thread about UT's chances to win the SEC?
  20. Someone was talking about Sarks choices and behaviors and pointing out some realities regarding the game to that point prior to taking points of the board. In those points the words "A TAD OFF" (to that point) was used to describe Arch's play and rather than focus on the primary subject of coaching choices some chose to focus on a semantic arguments regarding the meaning of tad and off. So here we are.
  21. Well, then as a passer at this stage of his development he was a tad off and our head coach should have fucking recognized that reality before taking points of the board in a tight, at that point, game. You focused on one minor quivel and one sentence that was otherwise completely about our head coach and NOT about our QB. This fucking place.
  22. They aren't but if they keep winning they will keep climbing. It helps Texas in that stupid aspect of the game so I'm all for it.
