  1. They're saying his name is dumb but as of now they expect him to play.
  2. Yeah that angle looks like a jam and a split second grab that I guarantee they let go dozens of times during the game.
  3. Correct. The issue is that they, and in particular Mar and his crew, let way more blatant holding that actually affects plays go all the time. I think the defensive holding has to be called. The one on the TE is basically never called in the Big 12 and especially this crew.
  4. I'm referring to the holding call on Utah TE #82 on their last full offensive drive.
  5. Yes and hopefully Sarkisian sees how much we need to attack the middle of the field in the passing game. Maybe he's scared of it because Ewers gets passes tipped so often with his arm slot but defenses are only worried about defending wide. Helm on the RPO yesterday, Bond on Ewers' bad miss on the first drive against OU, etc. Most of the time you see Texas with a free runner it's in the middle third of the field. We have to keep them honest. The pump fake WR screen was a good start but only for one specific play. On the Helm RPO yesterday they showed Napier tapping his chest after the play and telling the defender it was his fault. Seems like he knew he was abandoning the middle of the field with the play call and didn't expect us to have someone attacking it.
  6. It was a bullshit call, especially for Mar. Mar himself called it and #82 had his hand across the front of the defender for a split second and let go very quickly, and it had no effect on the play. Mar lets way more blatant holding go all the time. I was shocked at the call.
  7. Welcome to the new CFB world. Top talent will be concentrated in the super conferences but then spread out within them thanks to NIL. So CFB seasons will look more like the NFL and in a long season sometimes another team with great talent plays great on a day when you play like shit. The 1985 Chicago Bears got the shit beat out of them in a highly hyped regular season game against Miami. Now I'm obviously not saying this year's Texas team is the equivalent of that Bears team but that kind of shit happens.
  8. Yes, not the one he tried to catch with the crown of his helmet.
  9. Lol that was an easy catch that he fucked up. It happens.
  10. The drop is 100% on Moore. Ewers's inaccurate throw could be blamed for a non-touchdown because Moore had to slow down but the lack of a long completion is 100% Moore.
  11. We've been in one of those for decades. The SEC hasn't had this many upsets in a long time.
  12. Correct, just declaring the conference leader the champion is the smart thing to do (also removes an extra loss for the runner-up trying to get a good seed). The real point is making money.
  13. Better to be #2 in the pecking order than #3. This is literally the only logic. Weak psyches lead to this shit.
  14. Even picking up 90k in each of Philly and Montgomery County PA only makes it close with others outstanding.
  15. Machismo and ladder pullers. And racism. The only people I have ever heard straight out refer to Black people as monkeys are my Mexican family.
  16. Hey look, it's a white person who has no idea how racist Latinos are. Signed, A Latino
  17. Unfortunately I think the issue is that we just live in a country where people suck.
  18. That would require a 60% Harris result in the remaining votes. And then lawsuits.
  19. But Des Moines is almost completely in.
  20. I don't believe Haliburton was ever President.
  21. That's pretty much it. I'm smart and stuff and can't stand this shit anymore.
  22. Harris County seems to have gotten more R which I did not expect and makes me sad. @Js1 never answered me about Colorado job openings.
  23. Because in terms of what should be the result everyone realizes that for a healthy society this should be a Harris blowout. Even the @Rex Kramer out front shoulda told ya. And because it's not many people are upset.
  24. It's like you've never been on a surly game thread.
