Saban: Let me tell you all this shit about Sark. The Mannings: You mean the guy you hired? Twice?

He would have been run into the ground and injured.

My wife had to go to Philly for a meeting a few years ago so we decided to make a weekend of it. Turns out Philly has a naked bike ride every year. We were walking out of a restaurant when a hundred or so naked people biked by. That made for some awkward conversations with the kids.

Moore is a good #3 receiver.

I'm pretty sure 19 is possessed.

Wow - there are some strange rankings. Iowa St. at 15 and Iowa at 28. Clemson at 7 and Wiscy at 11? Aggy at 12 with the 52nd ranked offense? They need to phase out the preseason rankings much faster.

Have we started an over/under on the number of times the announcers mention that Casey's dad played QB for OU during the game? Whatever it is, I'm taking the over.

Bijan - 70 carries, 436 yards, 6.2 average Hall - 87 carries, 436 yards, 4.9 average Smith - 57 carries, 413 yards, 7.2 average Smith has some crazy numbers, but they were primarily against Kansas, Texas State, and Texas Southern. I'll be curious if he keeps that up against better competition. Rice, Tech, and ULL aren't exactly murderer's row, but a definitely better than what Smith has faced.

So we're just pretending OU and Ohio State don't exist now?

This is a weird season where no outcome is shocking. Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Clemson have all been regular playoff participants and are struggling so far, at least by their standards. NC State beating Clemson was an upset, but was it really all that surprising given how they've played? Would anyone be shocked if OSU lost to Indiana? I could see OU losing 3 or 4 games (or having a crazy series of fluke plays that allow them to pull out every game despite sucking). Bama looks like the best team, but they don't look like the soul crushing machine they were last year. Saban has only had two undefeated seasons and I wouldn't bet on a third this year. Though he'll probably win the championship. Again. Georgia has an amazing defense and who knows on offense. Plus Kirby Smart is contractually required to lose a game he shouldn't. Then there's a cluster of 10 or 12 teams who I wouldn't be surprised if they beat anyone in the top 10 or lost to anyone in the top 30. I could see Arkansas beating Georgia and losing to Auburn.

I suspect O'Neal is going pro in something other than sports. He'll explore his "options" and realize they are all located in College Station.

It would be a shame if there were some weird issue behind the scenes that resulted in Ohio State players quitting during the game and others saying they want to transfer out. And by 'shame' I mean "Dear eight pound, six ounce new born baby Jesus, please make this happen!"

Did Sark mention Card after the game? Card got pulled pretty quickly after the clock management issues, but I haven't seen any reference to Sark discussing it.

Remind me, which bowl does the 8th place SEC team go to?

Last year, a holding penalty, sack, or pretty much any third-and-long meant we were going to punt. We seem to have fewer negative plays overall and when we have them manage to convert.

I did chuckle towards the end of the half thinking about how annoyed the IT guys must have been when the announcers were raving about how great Casey is and showing his scoring drive count.

Get it together man. It was Tech. Now, if we put up 70 on OU...

I like these previews, but he makes every team we play sound like playoff contenders. He made Rice sound pretty good last week and watching this, you'd think Tech is really good.

Texas - 38 TT - 24

I believe the technical term is, "Bijan." You Bijan the hell out Tech. On a related note, we're going to kick the crap out of Tech.

When's the last time we had so much talent at a position that a guy like Danny Young, who is solid if unremarkable, was 6th on the depth chart? Now we just need that to happen at ever other position.

#7 makes me want to hide my children. And everyone else's.

A&M is to Arkansas what Bill Snyder was to Texas so they'll probably win again no matter how awful they look.

I'm pretty sure that's Bijan Robinson.
