  1. Looks like someone forgot that we actually played each other this year, so they can't do the crazy triangulation justification they've done for the past 10+ years to prove that they're better anymore. Poor aggy.
  2. With the game on the line Ewers threw a beautiful TD on 4th and forever to save the season. Levitt threw a pick.
  3. He played hard and backed up his shit talk on the field. He was still annoying as fuck with his over the top theatrics and I enjoyed watching him melt when they lost. I'm 100% certain he rehearsed a "no respect" post game speech for when they won.
  4. This game is great, mostly bc it means Texas, TCU, and SMU all made the playoffs before aggy.
  5. It's early, but it seemed to me like Elko really did want to wash the Jimbo culture stink off of that team. My guess is that he was given the leash to do that right up until he lost to dadgum tu, being "physically annihilated" in the process, and now he's being told to load up on stars at all costs.
  6. I mean, those figures were posted upthread so I'm going to assume they're accurate.
  7. I mean, you just summed up why they'll never get there. To make drastic changes, you have to admit that you're very far from where you want to be. Aggy's pride will never let them admit that they're so far off (and particularly not while we're clearly doing well) and so they find signs to cling to and believe they're "on the precipice" of something great. Since they never admit they're far off, they're unwilling to do what they need to do to change, so they stay the same. Rinse, repeat.
  8. This has always been hilarious to me, how one random poster with no way of knowing anything throws out a number they've "heard" and automatically that is adopted and repeated as fact. Meanwhile it is widely known in circles that aggy had to give Chace Sims $10M and DJ Sanders $12M not to flip to us, so they really shouldn't be talking about throwing money around to sign players.
  9. I love today. I love it almost as much as aggy hates it. Let's fuck up Georgia tomorrow and force aggy to continue watching us live their sec dreams.
  10. If there ever was a case study for the value of studying and learning from history, it's texags. In just those last posts, I've learned that their problem under Jimbo is they WEREN'T BUYING ENOUGH PLAYERS and that the only reason they lost to us was a couple of unlucky bounces and otherwise the programs aren't very far apart. So what they propose to do from here, if I understand correctly, is 1) focus on buying more mercenary players, especially on the dline, and 2) not change much else bc they're on the right track otherwise and just need some luck. And they honestly don't know why they're a perennial middle-dweller. Just incredible.
  11. I think that applies if there's a penalty without the targeting. For instance, roughing the passer, with targeting. You can lose the targeting and still have the penalty. If it's only a penalty of targeting, I think if you lose targeting you lose the penalty. Edit: Huck beat me to it
  12. I hadn't really noticed, but if so that's really good development. It felt for a while that they'd gone overboard with interpretation of the rule. There have been plenty of calls in the last few years that clearly were not targeting for what the rule is meant to prevent, but upheld. It's good to hear if this is changing. This was definitely a "not targeting by intent" call.
