  1. his position group regressed while in college station, he kind of sucked at recruiting and strikes me as annoying as shit. he also might be the random guy that's better coordinating a defense than teaching a position group. also who cares, life is suffering.
  2. missed it by a day or 3 but mushmouth giving christmas presents such as a stick with a ladybug on it while screaming into the mic and annoying the shit out of jub will always make me extremely happy.
  3. i'm sure there's a more exhaustive post mortem to be done, but i'm really not all that mad at klein - he made some boneheaded decisions at certain points of the game and season, but so does every oc on earth. he was dealing with a chickenshit sandwich that got really bad once it was clear weigman's shouder / arm / brain was permanently broken and then without moss he just had very few buttons in which to push. way more concerned with elko and what was supposed to be a guy that would instill physicality, sound play, etc - that defense down the stretch was a fucking joke, not filling gaps, not tackling, not doing much of anything. his poor in-game decisions basically cost us the auburn game and any chance we had to steal some late game drama on saturday. i still think the floor with him remains relatively high, but my theory will be pretty quickly tested this offseason. thankfully the eagle rare 17 delivered.
  4. i regret that life has taken me away from getting to talk my shit on here this week, but please think of me and my eagle rare 17 slamming against the wall as our depleted secondary finally breaks and texas goes up two touchdowns late in the 4th quarter. i hate you all, and am so fucking glad this game is back. merry thanksgiving weekend.
  5. i'm absolutely not going to read it and find out, but i assume the 1,600 page thread on the football board regarding a&m is mainly trading new york times receipes?
  6. to my deep sadness, frustration and hatred of all things dj durkin . . . auburn is not ass. they are a pretty decent middle of the road football team that has been absolutely cursed by some of the most horrific qb play i have ever seen at the exact wrong time. if you look at their metrics and rankings it's almost impossible that they are currently 4-6, except for the fact that god (correctly) hates hugh freeze with a passion. this will be an absolute rock fight of a game between two pretty talented and also flawed teams. literally nothing could go wrong.
  7. i regret not posting my literally nothing can go wrong screed on here last week as i was extremely confident going into that game, and even halftime, only to see us get absolutely run the fuck over by a team that appeared to want it way more than we did. columbia is an absolute shithole, but that stadium is fun as hell and we obviously were, ah, not quite ready for the moment. we gotta regroup, survive hugh freeze wizardry and then prepare for what will surely be a game on the 30th that both fanbases have very level heads about.
  8. oh this is very much the thread for this particular conversation.
  9. for those that care deeply - most of you - this has been an interesting month as the things i hoped for most under elko: some discipline, the raising of the collective floor, guys improving over the course of the season, adam cushing being a golden god, etc., have all largely taken place. we're not world beaters, but the team is playing well, the higher-end talent is being put in position to succeed and by and large guys are playing really fucking hard. unfortunately lsu is just a shit matchup against a secondary that still is struggling. the lack of tyreek chappel is going to hurt as there's just not another nickel on the roster, bryce anderson has to be hurt for as terrible as he has been playing and the rest of the guys are either just not good enough or not quite ready. defensive line will have to play out of its mind against a great lsu front and hope nussmeier makes a mistake or two. i think we'll manufacture 24-27 points but not sure that will be enough. should be entertaining.
  10. kirby has said this is his thinnest team depth-wise since being there. makes you wonder are they really ready for the game.
  11. got tix to both nyc nights. let's fucking go.
  12. because i got in a random conversation about the ability to program the all-time station lineup: 5:30-10: jub, doocy, gordo (i mean, it's probably craig, he just annoys the shit out of me but perhaps that's part of the show's greatness) 10-12: bob playing the role of norm with donny and sirois shooting his wheels off 12-3: hang zone 3-7: hardline with mike, circa 1997 greggo and corby (also open to jake playing the role of greggo here) i don't give a shit about tickers, saturdays can be sirois and danny from 10-noon, ben and skin from noon-2, and kickaround from 2-4. weekenders and monty can fill in on dry dock, mino and sean bass are simply never allowed to speak over the air.
  13. the difference is the rather messy and complicated history of the united states, socioeconomics and why 'recruiting the best player i can land within 100 miles of my campus' looks slightly different in western colorado versus northern alabama. my username on texags is taylor.hamm
  14. after a decade spent basically dominating the league, the only part of the argument i agree with is even the 'bad' teams run out offensive and defensive linemen that don't exist anywhere else in america, which i do think makes for more of a grind when looked at in aggregate. this doesn't necessarily make mississippi state or south carolina Good Football Teams, but it does mean there are some early round defensive tackles and offensive guards beating the shit out of you with hammers that simply don't exist most places. obviously a&m has taken this time to adjust our talent accordingly.
