  1. Fng quoted the wrong quote - I digress as I’ve had a little liquid liberation today, which the wife definitely doesn’t concur. Hook’em!!!
  2. Me too - actually felt bad for Mack, losing two in a row, when they had the Nations’ attention. Not only did they lose two in a row, but basically teams that are from the “bottom” of the ACC. Hook’em!!!
  3. Knoxtnhorn - did you ever go to a Knoxville Sports Bar called “Buckets?” The owner of that bar, Troy Hale, played QB for my Dad at DeSoto. “Buckets” was because of the size of his head/helmet. Hook’em!!!
  4. They lost their great RB two weeks prior to the tie and loss. He and two others signed with Tennessee on National Signing Day. Back then, it was a pretty big deal, as Johnny Majors, TN HC was there for the event. Hook’em!!!
  5. Back then, if you didn’t win District or be the runner up (2nd) you didn’t make the playoffs. It definitely isn’t like that today! He coached a team that went 8-1-1 and the tie game lost on penetrations, so they didn’t make the playoffs. Hook’em!!!
  6. My Dad was the HC at DeSoto from 70-83. Hook’em!!!
  7. Jimbo is to aggy what Mack gave us his last three seasons. When you think about it, it says a lot. Hook’em!!!
  8. Clemson losing today lost some “luster” in their matchup. 4-4 = yikes! Hook’em!!!
  9. USC’s defense is an unheralded disappointment after the $$$ spent getting LR, staff, and players. Scheme is one thing, but I don’t think they even have that. Just got eleven on the field. Nothing like winning 50-49 on the road, but hey, it’s a W! Hook’em!!!
  10. Trojans have more upside, if they get the right decision makers. aggy - good luck with that “sleeping giant” of a cess pool. Only the $$$ bags will keep them relevant, because there isn’t enough “National talent” in the Western Houston suburbs and North Shore to keep them in the top of college football. Hook’em!!!
  11. Not too excited heading into next Saturday vs KSU. Defense and ST won this game, as well as Brooks. Blue’s TD was late, and congrats to him, but this game should’ve been over an hour ago! Hook’em!!!
  12. Horns are winning, but so far I don’t like “Clutch Time Sark!” Leaves me scratching my head and dumbfounded. Just a guy from SA, is my opinion, but GD I’ve officiated better sub-varsity games where they actually coached to win the MFng game! Hook’em!!!
  13. Sure would be nice to have an additional 6 points right here. Hook’em!!!
  14. D bailed us out, so NM my previous post but it still stands as take the points when you can! Last 4th down/goal was too slow for a red zone play! Sark needs to reflect on his previous errors as it will cost us against a solid team, like next week - KSU. Hook’em!!!
  15. Sometimes it’s just good to take the Three! Should be 27-6 now, but watch BYU score here, with backups all over the D,and before you know it we’re defending an onsides kick! Hook’em!!!
  16. Only aggy would celebrate the huge win over a “two win” South Cackalacky! Hook’em!!!
  17. I was working the “chains” the year Westlake started their streak. You might know this guy! Hook’em!!!
  18. I’ve done a Homecoming Game, in Del Rio, that actually had a jet flyover at the end of the National Anthem, which was pretty cool! Hook’em!!!
  19. I’ve done many that would be Top 5. I’ve officiated awesome Kerrville vs Boerne, Wimberley vs Fredericksburg, all the SA NISD or NEISD games and etc, as well as other mid-size schools with playoff implications. We’re talking regular season games and not playoff games. I’ve done the Battle of Cibolo/Schertz with SC vs Steele and Judson games when they were good. But one of my “all time” favorites was many years ago officiating the “Spinach Bowl” - Crystal City vs Carrizo Springs. We (my crew) arrived in Crystal City around 4:30, for a 7:30 KO. People had to be moved off the streets surrounding the school, so we could park and get into our locker room. People were bursting at the seems to get into the once empty stadium. We walked out around 6:00 for pre-game activities and the place was packed, let alone 3-4 deep surrounding the stadium fence line. This is 1-1/2 hours prior to KO!!! It was amazing the local interest/involvement in this local rivalry. Hook’em!!!
  20. As a former TXHS FB official, I concur! Many a Friday nights were spent officiating Varsity games on Friday nights, not counting the occasional Thursday or Saturday tilts. Friday Nights in TXFB season has no comparison. The thing is, the bigger the school’s classification doesn’t correspond to the better atmosphere. As an official, you can just “feel” the vibes of a packed 3-5A Stadium, especially the one-school towns. I’ve officiated 2-3A games that had a better attendance and atmosphere than some of the “inner-city” 6-A schools. It’s actually kind of sad, when you looks around prior to KO and realize that not every child “participating” tonight has a parent in the stands, whether they are a player, cheer squad, band, and etc. 30-40 years ago, during my youth, that wasn’t thought of, meaning not attending. Old Man rant out! Hook’em!!!
  21. Maalik told all receivers to wear gloves this week, as they’re coming in HOT! Hook’em!!!
  22. Yes - only rule in my house was something purchased to take into work the next morning. Like a cake or something actually made the night prior to taking it in. Anything else is fair game! Hook’em!!
  23. I watch Pat’s show during lunch M-F. His Friday show, on campus, is actually pretty good IMO. As an NFL alum, he does get visitors to his show on weekdays that others might not. I understand his “mantra” and can look through/beyond it for the substance that his show actually brings. His show, during lunchtime, is IMO better than what ESPN has produced in a long while. Hook’em!!!
  24. No Cougar QB with knee braces - please! FIGHT !!! Hook’em!!!
  25. Grasping for school names for his story comparison, but like typical aggy, forgets that BYU has actually won a NC since 1980. Hook’em!!!
