  1. Okay, UTSA's schedule was pretty putrid. Michigan State had the same dynamic though - they went 10-2 with pretty mediocre advanced stats and the 25th hardest schedule. Iowa State was ranked higher on offense and defense and 19th overall in SP+, but went 6-6 against the 39th toughest schedule. They found ways to lose... just not to Texas. On a related not, aggy went 8-4 versus the 48th toughest schedule.
  2. No, the metrics are opponent adjusted. Here's the description: F+ Ratings combine Brian Fremeau's FEI ratings with Bill Connelly's SP+ ratings in equal parts. Overall team ratings (F+), offense ratings (OF+), and defense ratings (DF+) represent each team and unit's standard deviation above or below average. FEI ratings (FEI) represent the per-possession scoring advantage a team would be expected to have on a neutral field against an average opponent, based on opponent-adjusted possession efficiency data. SP+ ratings (SP+) are tempo- and opponent-adjusted measures of college football efficiency based on play-by-play and drive data designed to be predictive and forward-facing. Team records (Rec) represent results against FBS opponents only.
  3. Like momentum, knowing how to win seems pretty real. We had a better offense (31st vs 32nd) and defense (67th vs 75th) than UTSA. UTSA managed to win a bunch of close games and go 11-2 while we... didn't. If it makes anyone feel better, Nebraska had a much better defense than Texas (19th vs 75th) and about the same offense (30th vs 31st) and they only won 2 games. If our defense played like Nebraska's we'd probably have been in the conference championship game.
  4. Fuck around and find out what, exactly? That bringing in mercenaries and headcases to a shit hole like College Station may not work out? No shit. Did your sources also tell you water is wet? Of course aggy over promised and under delivered. It's kind of their thing.
  5. He totally looks like he's standing on a block of granite.
  6. It's pronounced, "Baxter." He's both one and three.
  7. Is it bad form to decommit and then commit to a new school the same night? I'm asking for a friend...
  8. So we should expect a commitment video within the hour?
  9. I'm glad we have both, but I'd take Ewers over Arch any day. Ewers is a better athlete, has a stronger arm, played better competition, and earned the hype. Arch appears to be both really good and over-rated. It's pretty ideal for the next couple of years. We get Ewers on the field and Arch providing a recruiting bump.
  10. In his defense, he probably hasn't seen his dick in years.
  11. How hard can it be to say, "Hi, I'm Arch Manning?"
  12. He could be a career backup and this would still be a huge pick up for Texas.
  13. Wait, so I should not listen to folks who thought Reggie McNeal was better than Vince Young and are convinced Zach Calzada/Haynes King/literally any QB wearing a maroon jersey is a Heisman sleeper? Whew, I feel better now.
  14. Any analysis that shows Nebraska's departure from the Big 12 had the third largest impact (out of the four teams) can't be all bad.
  15. Was cock sucking an NCAA sport in 2016-2017 by any chance?
  16. Somehow I don't recall there being any milk men in the Village People.
  17. Delayed corner blitz from 20 yards out! Duh! 1.6 percent of the time it works every time!
  18. Are we still talking about Futureman's aunt uncle?
  19. Wait, there was a day when this place wasn't a hemorrhaging vagina?
  20. This thread should be called, "I never saw much upside in Rico."
  21. His highlights are 8 minutes of running into a crowd and then popping out the other side for a touchdown. https://www.hudl.com/profile/15182064/Ryan-Niblett
