  1. Yep, lots of shit talking about the Big 12 on this board for obvious reasons but it's still a very good and underrated conference, same as it ever was.
  2. This is exactly it. It's not an actually great homefield advantage. Nothing in the numbers has ever said it is. Like most things with those yokels they just declare that it is and the media runs with it. They get really loud for big games. You know, like most power conference stadiums.
  3. Nothing stopping ISU from recognizing. Round robin championships are 100% valid.
  4. I choose to believe we ripped out his soul in that CCG blowout.
  5. Yeah, Northern Illinois was I think the third time Freeman has lost at home as a 20+ point favorite, right? NIU this year then Marshall and one other in previous years I thought.
  6. Well people are dumb so the articles make sense from that perspective. It's a bit annoying when official UT outlets say stuff like that when they know better and are well aware OU is our main rival. But anything for hype, clicks, and engagement these days I guess.
  7. Meh, get back to me when you go an a goalpost tour like Texas did in 1997.
  8. Yes, and this year from about 20-50 there is just a glorious mess of mediocre teams. As an example I am willing to bet that as shitty as they are this year I would bet on Oklahoma straight up over at least 100 of the 134 FBS teams. Florida, too. The one team that ctj mentioned that I wouldn't is probably Missouri because I just don't trust them. But a lot of that is probably because I've watched them play multiple times and haven't watched some of the other teams in that mediocre club. If I'd watched some of them I'd probably think of them the same way I think of Missouri.
  9. Only when it doesn't happen. See below.
  10. It's a tremendous advantage, but you still have to play an extra game. Haven't looked at the numbers but I'm pretty sure you'd still much rather be one of the teams with a bye. But you're right that it seems close plus at #5 you get to host a playoff game.
  11. SEC All-Time Conference Winning Percentage Ranking 1. Texas - 0.857 2. Alabama - 0.725 3. Georgia - 0.635 4. Georgia Tech - 0.616 5. Tennessee - 0.603 6. LSU - 0.590 7. Florida - 0.580 8. Texas A&M - 0.548 9. Auburn - 0.545 10. Missouri - 0.486 11. Ole Miss - 0.482 12. South Carolina - 0.430 13. Arkansas - 0.396 14. Tulane - 0.387 15. Mississippi State - 0.359 16. Kentucky - 0.319 17. Oklahoma - 0.286 18. Vanderbilt - 0.244 19. Sewanee - 0.000
  12. Yep, he called OPI that didn't happen when the receiver got near a defender on the other half of the field. That's exactly what I meant when I called it one of the worst calls I've ever seen. I think lots of officiating mistakes are just incompetence, but that's one of the ones that makes you wonder about corruption.
  13. You should change your name to fear-a-holic given your performance over the last week, cowering at the thought of Kyle Field and now trembling about Texas's CFP chances.
  14. 2 conference losses. They lost to ND.
  15. Yeah that OPI was one of the worst calls I've ever seen.
  16. Wrong thread and I forgot about Georgia. Tennessee wouldn't have had to head over us.
  17. Game between two mid teams ends on a stone cold drop. Fitting.
  18. Dear Steve Sarkisiam, Texas A&M not only has a good DL, they count on it. Their DBs bite on double moves. Please pay attention. Sincerely, Huckleberry from the Internet
  19. TD with a decent throw. Great save by the WR
  20. Need Auburn to win this so the SEC refs favor us next week or at least don't screw us. If you believe in conspiracies, SEC would prefer 9-2 A&M beat us next week to maximize SEC teams in the playoff.
  21. Bad fortunate of being on shitty Texas teams. Rich man's Reggie Bush.
  22. Hahaha Booger Kennedy is such an idiot. Just said Alabama is finding out about playing on the road in the SEC. Alabama. At Oklahoma.
  23. Ole Miss and Alabama finding out today that Georgia wasn't the only team on our schedule.
