  1. Kentucky -Kstate is an apt comparison in general terms. Older, veteran , over-achieving bunch prone to gaint killer status periodocally. We’ll need to play good , complimentary football , smart ball and we should be fine. I still think the deep ball success is coming and when it does , watch out. I hope D. Moore’s injury is not serious and it looked like Bolden injured his shoulder too. Might we see One of freshman WR? What about the CA kid? The WR with the great film. like to see him. Bond, Golden, Wingo and then the Freshmen I presume, if Moore and Bolden are banged up. This is where Cook fucked up. Could be getting big minutes.
  2. Well this escalated a bit. I just want to beat Kentucky.
  3. If it was easy, everybody would be doing it. We don't want it any other way. Chance to show the world what it means to wear the Texas on the jersey. Cant wait. Beat Kentucky and get ready for the Ags.
  4. I could see a scenario of Clemson USc 11 am Iron bowl 2:30 Texas 6:30. alL on ABC. There is almost no way we’re not prime time if we beat Kentucky. Will be one of the highest rated games of all time imo if the SEC title game appearance is on the line.
  5. The jones fumble was similar to the AC swipe today. Not an exact replica but similar. Believe the defender on Jones was Big Roy Miller , a late OU flip for Mack iirc. From Killeen or Harker Heights area.
  6. We looked solid today. Dominated the first half defensively. QE protected the ball, our OL played well . We ran the ball against a huge front. We had some drops. QE wasn’t perfect but overall fine. Deep ball is meh to poor. Wingo catches the tip, we run a different play on 2nd and goal and this games a lot different ala Vandy. Again , I rather not peak , but have our best ball in front of us. best Uk and I think we’re in playoffs either way. Pull off a W at Aggie and for sure we’re in. I love this team. We have 2 dozen ballers at least on this squad.
  7. Lot of season left. I’d rather not be peaking, but still winning. Our best football is coming. Not perfect today, but the run game is improving, Sark seems to be coming around to running football.
  8. Nah, he was hit from behind by a trailing DT after evading the rush, scrambling back through the middle and that's when he was tackled. From memory he had the ball in his hand and not against his body but he forced that fumble. This wasn't a Matt Nordgren deal.
  9. It happens. I have a very good friend from Memphis who went to Bama. He is without a doubt the biggest TN fan I know, total die hard. The story he gave me was his best friend from HS was a total derelict, hard partying kid and he knew he'd have to be roommates with him and likely be a terrible influence....so he ended up in T-town.
  10. Sounds like we're getting the whole hog. Buckle up, this will be our 2nd hardest game next to UGA.
  11. This is absolutely a panic move. Programs like Neb aren't supposed to be pulling guys out the recycle bin 10 games in to the season. Not sure how you spin or sell this to recruits. Also, didn't realize Rhule is 5'5" 220lb. That's one short portly dude.
  12. The key to this game will be the availability of Taylen Green and former Horn J. Jackson (RB). Those two make Ark much more dangerous. Green is like 6'6" and is very elusive and can make guys miss, if he's healthy. The Ole Miss game is not a barometer, he missed the whole game pretty much and Jackson was out too. Both played well vs TN and A&M. Yeah I know neither plays D, but if they are both back, the game has a completely different tone on that side of the ball. Their big DE Jackson will be super motivated as his brother is a Texas commit. Ive been hit and miss on my predictions; I figured Vandy would be a dog fight and was correct. UF with Lagway was setting up to be tough, but i missed on that one completely. Throw in the rivalry and this one will hinge on their star player's availability, imo.
  13. Watch them close the curtains and they win that game, he'll make it seem like he had a hand in the W.
  14. Second time in the 15T section (Terrace); pretty fucking sweet set up, free food, no line for pisser or beer. Got to say its a good gig if you can get it. Endzone seats, but not too high or low, so the vantage point is nice. IIRC we were Row 57, end seat plus the 3 next to it so in and out easy to the concourse. Also really close to North entrance and the white tent tailgating area. We had our annual event for a fallen classmate. Outstanding day.
  15. Keep in mind this is the Real Estate thread and the Fed dropping quarter point, while good overall for many things, is not going to be a barometer of up Mortgage rates moving down. The 10year is more closely tied to Mortgage Rates and up until a day or so ago, its been going up for 2 weeks and taking 30 fixed with it.
  16. you never go broke taking a profit
  17. Seriously doubt he plays, and if so he'll be limited. If does play, they have a stud RB Baugh who they can rely on heavily. Id prepare for a slog from them offensively, it will be ball control, run the ball and check down all day. He'll eat a bunch of sacks instead of running it. If we play solid , we win. If we fart around like we did early vs Miss St and Vandy, these guys can match us up athlete to athlete....the game plan from them wiil be to use the dink and dunk, crossing routes and play conservative and hope we gift them the ball. If that happens, we can lose easily.
  18. Most entertaining thing about the radio feed was Babe telling the story of Novachek taking him horse riding.
  19. Jones traded for Lance (now a 3rd stringer), who has a $5.3m cap hit. We could have used that $$ for Henry. Adding insult to injury,the 4th rounder we gave to SF , had 12 tackles vs the chiefs.
  20. What was the genesis of that? From my limited understanding, the cold war was in full effect. Iranian oil helped the allies defeat the Axis. Were we fearful of Iran distancing from that and partnering/supplying the communists? The Shah was more sympathetic to the west since we put him in power but the collateral damage was more autocracy than democracy, correct? I believe we end up in the same place, the Iranians would have moved further from the west over time and into the hands of Russia. I say all of that as a total amateur on ME history
  21. I think still TBD. QE has 4 games left. We go 4-0 and he puts up 250+ yards a game, I can see a pathway for him being in consideration. Sounds like not that serious according to reports. He was pulled after the injury, but returned for a play and they pulled him so as not to do more damage, he was seen jogging on the sideline. 2 weeks to heal up, likely not 100% but we'll see the big kid when we get to Fayettnam.
  22. Riley strikes me as an un-serious head football coach, good for him I guess. I hate OU as much as anyone, but when you leave OU for LA and USC, that tells me it was a money grab and lifestyle (for all its issues, Southern California offers a lot) and not about legacy and performing at the highest level. I get that USC is a blue blood and he figured he'd spend 100% of his time in the West when he made the move...but a grinder, a serious coach stays at OU to continue what had been a solid multi-year run. He's young, he's a finesse guy and he does not have what it takes to be elite. Look at Kirby, Sark to a degree, Oregon's coach, even Day, Franklin (I know I know big games) ,but Riley looks like the pussy compared to those guys.
  23. @ Louisville was a good win. @Cuse will be interesting as will GaTech if King is back which is possible

    Top UF DB Marshall is now out for the year: Marshall was having a great bounce-back season after a disappointing 2023 campaign, and while Florida has other corners they feel okay about, Marshall was far and away their best in 2024. https://hailfloridahail.com/two-key-injuries-leave-florida-football-shorthanded-against-georgia-01jbh8aq7yh8
  25. I believe this is the way. At the risk of going CR, i agree wholeheartedly that if she wins, the R's wont have to kiss the ring anymore or be beholden to you know who.
