  1. That puts him within $500k of Leavitt and Allar. I think I'd pay for the premium upgrade all things being equal.
  2. I suppose but it really is the worst possible match up I've seen in all of them. I can't see it happening unless it was a big cash payout which OU could use but... otherwise it's a terrible thing given WHY it's happening. As a Gata fan who out of Tennessee, Auburn and LSU would you prefer. I know Tennessee and Florida are pretty big as far as "rivalries" go. I'd put them 3rd after Kentucky and Vandy (just cause intra state rivals on Vandy)
  3. Why would LSU take a non-rival Auburn over a rival Arkansas? Also, Auburn gets Bama, Georgia and LSU. Enjoy getting slept War Eagle.
  4. The fans of those schools would hate it. Doesn't make sense as a brand, for their fans, or financially.
  5. Tldr: Candy Loving is hot and there is a lot of rich white trash from oil in boondocks of Oklahoma.
  6. I see Aggie wanting LSU, I don't see LSU wanting Aggie they have Arkansas, Ole Miss and Bama as traditional rivals.
  7. Did you miss the OR part where there was a different team? Why the FUCK would OU end up in a "rivalry" match with Florida? They've played twice, ever. They are the furthest away from one another geographically and Florida already has 3 legit rivalries. OU has a history with Aggie from BiG XII, and Arkansas is next door. Likely its Aggie or Arkansas as it makes the most sense historically and logistically. Which means, Texas, Missouri and a&m or Arkansas as the OU games which shifts Arkansas to Texas, LSU, and OU or Missouri. Then again there is the old SWC Arkansas/Aggie tie so.. Missouri is the odd ball that really only has ties to OU, and a bit of an old rivalry with Arkansas. Who wants to play Missouri though? They're never good, but rarely horrible. Beat them you should, lose it's an upset for good teams.
  8. In the SEC you have intra and usually interstate rivalries. Kentucky hates with Louisville, but they definitely have a rivalry with Vandy and Tennessee. Remember, they are all 100% football in the SEC particularly when Kentucky is involved. Though that is, of course the biggest motivation for rivalry. It's not unlike Texas with aggie, Arkansas and most prominent Oklahoma. Sometimes the rivalry is lop sided, but doesn't change the dislike for one another.
  9. Agreed, and games with other big name schools aren't like filling in FCS or nobody P4 teams (which even those aren't easy). My guess is CDC is already working overtime with input from Sark on the next 8-10 years. Right now beyond 2029 its grim. I suspect some of that was due to the unknown factors which are now being answered.
  10. Reposting from the SEC general thread. Arkansas has developed a "rivalry" with LSU. Not sure anyone has any sort of rivalry or feelings about Missouri aside from Arkansas and historically OU. Based on all I've heard, nobody thinks of them at all. I think aggie would WANT be aligned with LSU, Arkansas and Texas. Those are their "rivalries". Just don't think LSU sees that game the way aggie does. I think more likely aggie gets Arkansas, Texas, OU or SC Arkansas: Texas, LSU, Aggie LSU: Arkansas, Ole Miss, Bama are their 3 traditional ones. Tennessee: Vandy, Kentucky, Bama Florida: Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky (Auburn or Bama both apply as rivals) Kentucky: Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Florida Georgia: Florida, Auburn, Tennessee Bama: Auburn, LSU, Tennessee South Carolina: Georgia, Tennessee, Aggie ? Vanderbilt: Tennessee, Kentucky, Ole Miss Missouri: Arkansas, OU, Texas or Aggie? Ole Miss: MSU, Bama, Auburn or Arkansas OU: Texas, Arkansas and Aggie or Missouri MSU: Ole Miss, Kentucky, Bama Auburn: Bama, Georgia, ? USA Today already penned an article
  11. Yep. Stopped drinking over a decade ago.
  12. My favorite line in Episode 3 was "Look with your eyes". Olyphant delivered that line so perfectly, like an annoyed father. I actually really like the adult actors portraying children angle, a lot. It's unique and has some interesting side plots already brewing. Sydney Chandler is doing a remarkable job of the rebellious tweenager and it fits the Peter Pan script well. Nibs is interesting as he was the bravest in Peter Pan, and it's been polar opposite so far. The actess Lily Newmark playing her is 31! Holy shit, I'm old.
  13. She was hearing it prior to the fight with the Xenomorph.
  14. Lol, I had to do a double take as my rage bait radar went into the red. Then I was like, oh.. I agree with him.

  16. That's really gonna even out the excellent coverage by ESPN. Are they running low auction job offers now? Graham should look into it.
  17. So in weird ass "SEC Ranking", I was watching Football Film Guy in YouTube and Crain and Company popped up. I got to the second round of picks and it was clear these idiots were absolutely fucking clueless. They gave zero reason for why they picked what, I mean zero analysis other than some extremely vague bullshit about HCs or QBs. Looked them up...oh... I see.. No CR, just evidence that what's out there in the sports media world varies from the rare valuable insight to politically sponsored idiots.
  18. Yeah, but he's got massive He-Man arms. Or... maybe arms that match his legs.
  19. There was a time when I wanted Texas to join the Pac. It was back when I was drinking, a lot, so...
  20. I tried to take Coon-ass 301 with Professor Thibodeaux at Texas, but didn't have the alcohol consumption pre-reqs despite my best efforts. Apparently, it's a very high bar.
  21. Those that never saw VY play in person, or at a minimum live on TV, don't fully grasp the variance of what they are about to experience. They just don't. After all the hype and all the news prior to the Rose Bowl, I woke up excited and relaxed. With zero fear. The exact thing I said just prior to 4th and 5. "No worries, we got this." I haven't felt that confident since, prior to the start of this season.
  22. Huh, didn't realize the The Guild House was by him as well. Another amazing place. Ocean Prime has been noted for my annual pilgrimage to Dallas in October.
  23. The second part is sarcasm, right?
  24. He is fucking polished as hell. He really is better than a considerable number of college football head coaches at press conferences. I know he has has help, still, impressive.
  25. Agreed, which is why I said food was outstanding. It was a goto for me in CBus. It was, iirc, shockingly reasonable price for the quality of food as well. I recall never having business expense push back on meals at The Pearl.
