  1. A game of inches. 4th down, we hold there and it's still 24-10, and the defense does their best work of the day, holding Vandy scoreless on a 38-yard field gifted to them by the Texas O. Vandy really benefitted from some stupid luck, timely penalties and incredibly stupid personal fouls on our end to keep it within 14.
  2. It was sad to watch, but won't mind seeing Khamzat for the belt. I don't know who is strong enough to keep him off though. Would love to see him beat strickland first. Main event was rough. Holloway was doing just fine. Putting on a striking clinic at times. Then.... bam. Topuria's power gotta start entering rare territory in UFC lore.
  3. A little of both. They don't have to play undefeated BYU or undefeated Iowa State. The only team in the top 3 of the conference they lost to by 3 (KSU), while also needing OT to get by Baylor. I think this game against Tech will solidify if they belong in that Top 4 or are just like the rest of the middle of the pack (which is a lot of schools). They have earned the right to prove it at this point, imo.
  4. I'm fine with the defense today. Offense gave them a 2nd straight game of "fuck you clean up our shit." And that TD at the end would have had a lot smaller likelihood of happening if Broughton doesn't go full regard. Moore looked good, Ant looked good, the speed of the defense was on display again keeping Pavia from breaking anything big after that initial touchdown. The coverage was very sticky tonight too.
  5. He was a 1st round pick 2 weeks aqo. Absolutely stunning turnaround by him. My hat's off.
  6. Ese guey tiene cojones, y Quinn ....... Well Quinn.....
  7. He's a young guy we can live with mista.............. /s
  8. Exactly my thoughts. How underwhelming. Didn't go to one game this year, had gone to 3-4 each of the first few seasons. The team didn't play with heart, the coach didn't seem to have control of the team, lacking leadership and desire. Now the GM contributes to the lack of inspiration?
  9. I get a little excited then go through my account to see that I sold some off earlier this year at 8.75 in late April. Let me hold my damn horses and let this make some money.
  10. Sturgill's ACL taping is on Monday. Giveaway link is here: https://acltv.com/tapings/. Actually went to my first ACL taping a couple weeks ago to see Carin Leon while he was in town for the festival. That venue is awesome, the show was great, and I would be incredibly stoked to see Sturgill on that stage (even after catching him at the fest), so fingers crossed and if anybody wins with an unused+1........
  11. Brother that's a win for the LG, I don't know what you're on. He got "pushed" back like two steps then anchored. Strong rep.
  12. 3 interceptions and got 7 points out of it. And at that only because Jahdae had a hell of a return on one. The defense was fine. Completely let down by their counterparts.
  13. I got big questions after tonight. Took my time hopping off the bandwagon but I'm just not sold on the dude at this point in the season. There's a number of college QBs that Sark can make into stars with good blocking and a solid run game. Quinn isn't pushing that ceiling unfortunately. And yes his deep ball is not reliable, to say the least. Luckily for us there's not a lot of Dline that can whoop out ass like that, but when the time comes to make the playoff, we're going to be praying for "good" Quinn.
  14. I heard that shit too. And his knockoff fucking henchmen of ill-educated clowns who not only failed but got one of themselves killed in the process. They knew exactly what he meant when he said "patriotically", to them that's a incendiary word, absolving them of any decency because they get to hide behind the flag instead of uplifting and strengthening it. Selling their souls for a grifter.
  15. Ran into this little breakdown last night, thought it was really interesting. Been hearing about the shift to position-less since last year, but cool to see it in action. It's obvs not exactly position less, because Wemby needs to be positioned around the basket on defense at all times so he can lead the league in blocks, but being able to switch 1-3 and hound mfers into submission should be fun to watch. The interview quotes with everyone seemingly bought into the defensive intensity is also great to hear.
  16. Sturgill was about as good as I could've hoped. Glad I finally got to cross him off my live list. What a band and what a bunch of musicians.
  17. I love this part of the season. Because it's the obvious antidote to the "they haven't played anybody yet" nonsense. You don't know until week 4-6 who is who. And our resume just keeps looking better (much like last year imo).
  18. I was just talking to a friend a couple weeks ago about a mutual connection (late 20s) from one of those Mexican families who "runs logistics" for his daddy's company (goes out every night, fucks off every day and spends all his money on vices from the apartment his daddy pays for). Idk why it took me so long to realize that nepotism breeds mamones in whatever country you're from. They might dress better but they're not reinventing the wheel on privileged lifestyles. Work ethic and instilling values is going to breed "respectable" human beings no matter how you dress them. Not every slapdick in a blazer is worthy of adoration, surprise surprise. hell aggy has plenty of grown men still whooping and donating money to their fake army, what the shit do I give a fuck how a stranger dresses.
  19. This is unfortunate. Was definitely my plan, but now I can hope to have sufficient signal to stream on my phone.
  20. Saw Jungle at the Moody Amphiteater Friday and it was a lot of fun. It will be very hard for me to pass on their ACL set after having that great of a time, but Vince Staples had a great album this year.... . Decisions to be made. Probably taking the Glass Beams rec for Sunday since I don't have much I'm dying to see before Sturgill. Geese seems like they'd be cool but that's cutting it close to kickoff and there's no decision to be made there.
  21. I can feel like he can take a bit too much time making progressions, but when the o line gives him time, he's going to make the right decision. Quinn is ahead on processing time, but Arch's footwork and pocket maneuvering in only his 2nd year was incredible today. That crossing route he hit after shuffling away from one defender..... He's got the technique down.
  22. Likewise. I've been a Longhorn football fan for as long as I've watched football, and a Longhorn basketball fan for as long as I've watched basketball. Last year I watched as little basketball as I ever have because the majority of the starters (and overall minutes) were transfers. Rentals. I dont know exactly what that information did to me, but I care a lot less now. I think what keeps me into football is that the rosters are too big and Texas talent is too fruitful for it to lose its connection to Texas, so we at least will always have a handful of guys that love representing their state and grew up wanting to be Longhorns. Shit, even Arch is as faithful a longhorn as any, wanting to be here even as a child. I know I'm being naive placing my own Texas/UT pride into these kids, but knowing that some of them share that with me is a huge selling point for me personally.
  23. Exactly. Gabriel might be a B+ NCAA QB, but you gotta take a kid (grown man?) with that much experience that can steer the ship. QB and O line rely so much on experience, ask the Mannings, that's why they're fine with Arch waiting his turn.
  24. Having 3 running backs playing is technically good depth. We have 3! The depth itself is indeed, good!
