  1. Ive watched or listened to every home game since '88. Ive been to the Shoe to see an epic win and ive been to Pasadena for an epic loss to Bama. I was at the Hodges Mitchell up the gut 75 yarder on the first play of the game vs the Pokes; been to the Dome to see us crush Tulane and the same Dome to see Drunkenmiller go wild in the 2nd half for the Hokies. Went to DKR last fall for OSU for the first time in 20 years and prior to that the last home game I saw live was the Cole Pittman game. Been to Stanford and witnessed that shitshow too...like a lot of you my live game experience runs the gamut. Heading to DKR Sat night and i cant wait. I havent been this excited to be at a home game probably since the Cougars came to DKR in '90 or when I saw the epic Westbrook hit vs the Domers in one hell of a game (despite the loss). Go Texas , beat the roaches!
  2. I’m in thank you. Great tip
  3. Im looking into Cabo using Marriott points..is Casa Maat an all inclusive option for JW? I noticed its only like 50K more for the dates we are considering.
  4. I was there; as far as i know, that's the one and only time we rushed the field. We did it at the Cotton Bowl in the 88-92 era too, but cant remember exactly what year.
  5. Just when we though Hurricance season was over, we have a pretty large sub-tropical system getting ready to hit my fav place, the Abacos. East Coast of Florida bracing too.
  6. Major was great at it too. Never once saw him have to call timeout out , he would check out of stuff all the time. Nails
  7. Hilarious, When I first watched that clip I thought he was sitting down.
  8. No room for error here on out. Win out and we’re likely in Arlington. Have to assume OU takes care of OSU, there would only be 2 , two loss teams and we would have hth with KSU.
  9. Jahdae, i could be wrong, but the play im thinking of, it was a blatant foul on our DB...it was the play on our sideline and the coach confronted him and was like why did you push the guy.... things flared from there.
  10. The fumble was not a miracle. We have had plenty of late game turnovers go our way. That’s football. Couple of note; the ARk qb 4q fumble in fayettnam, the year we had Vince and Cedric. Also the fumble Drew Kelson forced up in the shoe, preserved our momentum late. We were on the benefit of a late non fumble up in Ames years ago too. These things happen all the time. The other one was the Aaron Ross forced fumble in Neb that allows us to kick a walkoff fg , by a walk-on K
  11. Yeah no doubt...I know its not a fair comparison, but i see some Jamal Charles in his style. JC was another level of back, an all-timer, but there are some similarities like the 'forward lean' in his running. JC had tremendous hips and a wiggle to augment his power for a speed guy. Some forget his tackle on the OSU LB after Vince's int in the shoe. Also, is reception and the tackle he broke in that game showed his strength. IIRC he was only a FR that year.
  12. Hey now. I was born in Lynwood (mom went to Lynwood High), Dad was from Compton (Dominguez), csb. Couple summers ago we drove from LA to Carmel/Monterrey (sp?) and back, up through Big Sur. Spent 1 night in Santa Barbara, stayed at a boutique Marriott (wouldnt rec for kids) and ate at Joes...spent another night in Morro Bay before getting to our final stop.
  13. Can’t wait for this game. We need to pay them back for the last few years.
  14. Bama has @TN and @Olemiss. I think they split, winning in Knoxville and losing in the Grove. That will likely knock them out of the SEC title game. UGA runs the table and SEC gets 2 in. UGA Bama Semi is likely if UGA rolls the rebels. Strength of schedule will bite the Rebles, as the Texas win will be deciding factor the committee points to. In that scenario, OSU, Clemson, UGA and Bama would get in, assuming Cowboys dont win out, which given their history, is very likely. Bama struggles in Oxford, add in the Kiffin factor and its a dicey game for Bama late in the season.
  15. well that doesn't suck. One more weapon for the QE and co.
  16. What kind of TE is JB? I assume those two passes to Helm, will now go to JB, and if he has some kick to him, we may could have got a few more YAC
  17. Rojo to me is a Chris obobnaya clone. Where did the former Strake Jesuit rb go in the draft?
  18. You guys won’t believe this story. Spent The Weeknd in Seaside FL for my kid’s fall break. Listened to Craig Way from the beach pounding beers. Stepped in to the house for lunch and watched most of the 3q before heading back to my spot. About 3:30 I made my way back to the house , loaded up my wagon, chairs , cooler, Bose etc and stopped for a Cuban sandwich right there by the crosswalk in front of the little half moon shaped entrance to the main Seaside area. Mrs JD horn and my 3 daughters , plus a friend went to the outlet (no pics), giving me a hall pass for the bama game later that night. A couple horn fans came by as I was eating my Cuban and we chatted about the game , high fived etc… Fast forward a few hours and I make my way to Bud and Alleys for the bama game. I run in to those same Texas fans and they have a table and one of them is a huge bama fan too, so we talk a bit and bs until I see a spot at the bar open up. I excuse myself and almost immediately, the lady and her date (I presume husband/bf) start asking me questions ; who are you rooting for (i show my Texas belt), as i was using an Auburn coozie (my oldest is at AU) etc..I tell them I’m a Texas grad , but that I’m pulling 100% for bama as I can’t stand Aggie. She proceeds to tell me she is an Aggie grad and can’t believe I wouldn’t be rooting for the “state”. I tell her as politely as I could , In my mind it just doesn’t work like that. for 2.5 hours the conversations were very pleasant , she keeps adding that she can’t believe I’m rooting for bama , I keep telling her I hate the aggies , and she proceeds to get completely shit faced. here’s why i posted …toward the end of the game, she leans over and tells me the most god awful racist joke right in front of Her date (by this time I learn it’s a blind date) the joke is awful, like as bad a N word joke as there is. She looks at me kind of blankly, like why aren’t you laughing (her date wasn’t either), and I tell her as calmly as I can , now you know why I hate the aggies. I have her card , I could out her, as being a racist . She owns an engineering firm in Montgomery AL
  19. Jonathan Brooks ran hard late in the game. Killer B’s next year running the ball. Brooks, Blue and Baxter
