  1. Yes Arkansas aggie and LSU are going to be, in some order, 5-6-7 in the West.
  2. Big Noon Kickoff is going to be in Iowa City for the Penn State Iowa game...but that kick off is not at noon! I feel lied to.
  3. Going for it was absolutely the correct decision. Then he just called two bad plays. Make or miss a FG there and its still a 2 possession game. Get a TD there and it's game over. Also the D had been playing good since the first quarter, the chances of TCU going 99 yards for a TD were low. So yeah I liked the decision to go for it, I just did not like the play calling that followed. I liked his explanation after the game of why he went to Bijan there but I think you have to call Bijan friendly plays. Running between the 2 gaps on the goal line when everyone knows who is getting the ball is not a Bijan friendly call.

  5. 9 top 25 teams lost which feels like a lot more than normal, but all of them were top 20 which does not give us at 26 a lot of room to move up. I'd guess we'll be 23. It does not help that Arkansas was revealed to be a fraud who might only get one more SEC West win this year.
  6. It's reason enough to love him just because he hates aggie and knows they are weird as fuck. One of his little rants/soliloquys out there is him comparing tech fans to aggie fans and wondering how they get away with being fake army and comparing the corps to him starting a pirate camp.
  7. He looks to be +3500 right now. If he continues to play the way he has, he will almost certainly get into the top 4/5 and secure an invite. The Alabama QB is the favorite right now.
  8. Jimbo's signature win is 10-7 on the road against a 1-4 Colorado team. I feel like they might finish last in the West.
  9. Very interesting...I wonder why this was taken down by the account? One of them must have said too much...I listened to the Worthy piece and don't recall anything surprising.
  10. I actually did not finish Kingmaker either. I got it at release and the initial timed main quest put me off, I actually lost the game because of it. I picked it up again early this year (and was very pleasantly surprised that they had added a turn based mode) and got a little further into it but still didn't finish. Not sure how to explain why Wrath is better, but it definitely has me hooked more than Kingmaker ever did...could be a timing thing but I doubt it because football season is usually when I play the least amount of video games and this has me playing like it's a full time job.

    Justin Tucker

    SIAP but some amazing stats I saw today... Tucker is 16/16 career in the NFL with 1 minute or less to go in regulation. He's also 50/50 on his last 50 in 4th or OT.
  12. In 1974 we won 81-16 in Ft Worth. We need to shoot for that. I want Patterson considering retirement on Sunday.
  13. I thought POE was pretty good. Setting took some getting used to but it was definitely BG3 in spirit. POE 2 even better, for me, I love the nautical/archipelago setting and the whole pirate vibe.
  14. Just imagine if those three games aren't canceled thanks to Covid. We almost certainly win all three which results in a 10-3 season. We moving on at that point? Don't think so.
  15. This dude is fucking awesome.
  16. Game came out about 3 weeks ago now. If you ever played BG2 or Pillars of Eternity 1/2, this feels like that. A little overwhelming to start even for CRPG vets, in that there are literally like 130 classes, and multi classing on top of that. If you liked the first Pathfinder Kingmaker you'll love this one, IMO its better than the first and definitely more polished at release. That said it has another meta game slapped on top of it...a lot of people didn't like the Kingdom management in the first game and this game has a similar mechanic for leading a Crusade, thankfully you can turn it off and never have to worry about it if you don't like it. Also this one has TB and RTWP out of the gate whereas Kingmaker needed a year+ to get a TB mode.
  17. I think Arkansas can win but not because they are a good team, they aren't. They have been dogshit in the SEC and there is no reason to believe they are good this year. Way more likely Texas just had another coach shit the bed than Arkansas is a legit team. But aggie is also bad. Their ranking last year, and this year, is fool's gold. Also despite the recent series record, the games between these two are always close. I'd definitely take Arkansas and the points.
  18. Clickbait. I didn't love the cast. Or the acting. Or the...script. But the story and pacing kept us wanting to watch the next one every single time an episode was over.
  19. I thought so...the NFL does, I'm always seeing top speed stuff posted and they have a site for it (and other stats) nextgenstats.nfl.com but maybe they just analyze video and can get top speed that way.
  20. Texas has those speed tracking things right? I need to know how fast he was going on his TD run and also the punt block. Getting home lined up that wide was pretty impressive. Great scheme for his speed there. It's so refreshing to win on special teams.
  21. the yrsports.stream sucks from a mobile or a TV browser. You need to watch it from a PC or laptop and then stream it to your TV from there if you can. That said, its dying for me every 10 minutes or so, refresh fixes it but its a pain in the ass. Game does not seem to be on sportsurge.net either.
  22. https://sportsurge.net usually has everything.
  23. I was surprised because Arkansas is not a good team and really haven't been since leaving the SWC. They are in the bottom half of the 14 team conference as well as in their 7 team division. Yeah it's definitely a rivalry anyone on the Texas side was dumb as shit for suggesting or stating otherwise. That's not an excuse for this performance though. What specifically surprised me was the softness of both lines. I know a million people have said it but when the O line just stands around letting late hits on their QB go unpunished that is a mortal sin. Their future children should feel the wrath that Flood should mete out on them this week. I don't think QB play was the deciding factor in the loss, not nearly. But it was a little bit surprising Card was left in as long as he was. His targets weren't helping him but he was flat out missing way too many throws. The offensive play calling was maybe Sark's worst collegiate effort? It was predictable, and it was not working and he didn't seem to ever change it. Even changing QBs, Casey was just better at taking what the defense was giving and it was garbage time as well. Every drive seemed to be decent run play first down, stuffed run play second down, missed throw/dropped ball 3rd down. The end. Finally the most egregious thing to me was the lack of significant adjustment at the half. At the very least I expected a dramatically different, simpler blocking scheme for the line. A 3 man front beat them all night. No excuse for that. They looked worse, execution wise, than a decent high school O line does in Texas. I thought this was a good hire but after game 2 I am very worried we have Post-Mack 3.0 on our hands. I mean granted Strong is the literal worst hire in the entire history of the program but for all his flaws Herman never had a team get beat to fuck, and quit, like this in his 4 years. This 19 point game felt like a much bigger ass kicking from a much shittier roster. And for all the hype the staff got, they shit the bed worse than the players. Out coached across the board.
  24. Wolken is one of the guys who covers sports yet seems to hate them and what they represent. I'm pretty sure he was in the cancel the season camp last year.
  25. KOTOR is one of the best games ever made. And it was an Xbox exclusive originally, PC later in the year. Crazy that was 18 years ago now. I bought an Xbox to play it and don't regret it. I would have a PS5 right now if you could impulse buy them...still hard to believe they aren't in stock all the time almost a year after release. KOTOR will get me to actively search for one as the release gets closer
