  1. I thought that her husband was froghorn.
  2. They already get the coat of homeschooling programs/software subsidized by the state, so we already pay for people to homeschool their kids. So yeah, of course they will just dump some more of our tax dollars to pay Cletus to “teach” his kids.
  3. My preference would be to go for it here also since with a touchback after the made fg, you’re only looking at 4 yards difference in starting field position for OU, assuming zero yards on the 4th down conversion attempt. I will say that there are probably a lot of coaches who disagree with us so Sark isn’t on an island with his choice, but to me, the risk/reward justifies just going for it.
  4. Sure. Would you agree that running the play clock down longer does not necessarily accomplish that, and that and that it could easily result in leaving them more time on the clock, possibly only tied when they get the ball back?
  5. The only issue is that by letting the play clock run down to :01 does not necessarily end up with the same result of the play. There are advantages to going fast. In other words, if you call the EXACT same plays, but slowed down pre-snap, there is a real likelihood that the plays do not “work”. If we don’t get a first down or two, we are punting to them from our own end after burning Jack shit off of the clock with them using TO’s to preserve time. It’s a tough call, IMO, and I’m not sure how I feel about it, but it isn’t some clear cut obvious abject coaching failure that everyone sees except for idiots.

    What not enough people ever talk about: The overwhelming majority of missed tackles are actually missed before they are even attempted. Shitty weak arm tackles that get slipped are the result of being out of position and approaching from a bad angle.
  7. Don’t post shit like this when you didn’t actually watch the game. You clearly did not or you wouldn’t possibly think that this is valid “analysis”. You just read the box score, apparently. ETA: I don’t put this loss on the refs, by the way, but to say Quinn sucked, citing the two picks as evidence, is bullshit.

    I get that. It’s just that you were responding to a specific question about number of losses you would deem acceptable, and you replied “no reason that we shouldn’t win out”.
  9. I wonder if he still kicks the fg is it was 4th and 2 instead of 4th and 4.

    So it is not acceptable to you if we lose another game this year?

    How many of those Carrie’s were designed runs, called by the OU staff after figuring out that we weren’t spying him?
  12. I guess an argument could be made that a Texas loss would be the best chance to make sure that neither one of us are me up in the playoffs which could be something that Yormack would find appealing.
  13. If we are talking about the quick sideline pass, the plays “worked” against KU, IMO. I say that because in each instance, we got the ball to an athlete, in space with just one guy to beat, no one else in the frame. That SHOULD be a winnable scenario. KU repeatedly made great solo plays in space except maybe once or twice. All of that, of course, will not ever satisfy those whose analysis is, “The play didn’t work, so it was obviously a terrible play call.”
  14. I was just discussing this the other day with a client. Specifically, the late season Fresno State game resulted in an insane total yardage number because USC got scored on a bunch. His average yards/return was not even in the top half of college football players statistically, but he had a ton of them.
  15. Deleted.
  16. NSIAP, but displaying the words to The Eyes whole singing it pregame is fucking embarrassing. * I’m assuming that this isn’t an accommodation for deaf/hearing impaired. If it is, I retract my rage.
  17. Just to add to my post a couple of weeks ago. Last night, pre-kickoff: The crowd spontaneously launches into a loud “TEXAS!!! …FIGHT!!!”. After about 4 or 5 reps, it’s gotten pretty loud and everyone is involved. Other guy, not Bob Cole just randomly yells “TEXAS!!!l" for no reason. WTF? We got this already, dickface. Sit this one out.
  18. I don’t even think of the COVID jab a an actual “booster” anymore. I just think of it as an annual shot, like the flu shot which you just get every year. Makes sense for me too since I got a risk factor or 2.
  19. The dildo statute was struck down in 2008 by the 5th Circuit. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-ban-on-sex-toy-sales-overturned/#:~:text=The%205th%20U.S.%20Circuit%20Court,guaranteed%20by%20the%2014th%20Amendment.
  20. It happens ALL THE TIME. It’s amazing thy somehow, my wife can accurately count blood pressure meds and statins but somehow benzos and opioids trigger some inability to perform that function, because somehow, no one ever claims a miscounted bottle of run of the mill meds. It’s only the ones that get people high: weird coincidence.
  21. Yeah. Of course, calling every series as: Run Run Pass didn’t help GG out very much.
  22. And ridiculous spots.
  23. In one post you discussed the disaster of a “failure to convict”, but also, where applicable (state cases) you discuss mot bargaining for anything less than prison. Prosecutors often have to weigh those two things. For DOTARD, and this question isn’t loaded at all, would you support the prosecution agreeing to a really light sentence, possibly without real confinement, if it meant a conviction of the offenses? Personally, I’m not sure how I feel about it. I think I might be ok with it, simply because the scenario of a long drawn out trial resulting in an acquittal makes blood lose from my ears.
  24. Maybe you should read the thread title/poll question again? You’re arguing about holding the rape stuff against this current football team/staff. That was never the question asked.
