  1. Yeah that was some pretty ingenious stuff. These F1 engineers .... I'm kinda thinking that may have been a large part of McLaren's advantage this season, just running lower than everyone else.
  2. He's trying to see when it moves - when he leans toward his bro or when he leans toward the chick.
  3. At some point later in the match one of the announcers mentioned that we'd 'simplified our block'. Anyone have any details? What would we have changed? Also, I'm not the best at tracking subs, but it seemed like we didn't see the double sub as much last night. Did it even happen once in set 1? I don't think it did, with Ella setting the entire time. I thought that was interesting as well.
  4. Yeah 2023 at COTA for too much skid block wear, and in China this year, one was underweight and the other had another skid block violation.
  5. Yeah I have no doubt it was unintended, but them's the rules. If the bumps don't work as an excuse at COTA, they aren't gonna work at a much smoother Vegas circuit. And yeah, they just pushed it a tiny bit too far, as you say.
  6. Agree re" the bold, because of the obvious shit you have to endure for a year after losing to those morons. Hell, it's bad enough when we beat 'em. They always act like they won, even after we humiliate their asses. It's just bizarre. And yeah there's nothing like Texas - ou, and as you noted, our aggy friends have a hard time getting their heads around that. Back in the early 90s, an aggy friend of a friend of mine refused to believe that we considered ou sucks a bigger rival than aggy. He had been an aggy pitcher. His nickname on the baseball team was "Pine Tree", because of the long HRs he'd give up, that would end up in the pine trees out beyond their outfield fences at the time. Since he didn't believe our descriptions of the Texas - ou game intensity, we decided to take him to Dallas that year for the game. He was properly blown away, and after that admitted he'd never seen anything like it. He was left extremely envious by that experience, wishing they could have a similar neutral site game. I always thought a perfect fit for a similar matchup would be aggy vs LSU, in Houston, but I'm really glad they don't do it. Fuck aggy.
  7. Also from the Autosport forum ...
  8. From what I've been reading, they've both been checked several times earlier this season and were never found to be under the limit. Re: who gets checked post race, here's all I have ...
  9. Can anyone explain to me how they have a top 25 SOS with their shitty schedule? It's just bizarro world. Oh, and Fuck aggy.
  10. Got damn ... ever heard of shaken baby syndrome, bro? (and lol, no. I didn't click through until after I posted that)
  11. Yep. I went to one game in Collie Station - the McIvor beatdown - and that was enough for a lifetime. Fuck aggy.
  12. In a nutshell, this is it for me, down to a tee. I mean I love knowing we'll win more than 2 out of 3 against these fucks on average, but it usually just feels like a game we should win and beating them is rarely anywhere near as satisfying as beating ou sucks.
  13. Only once or twice since they went SEC iirc. We've already played Georgia more in SEC play than they have. And re: their schedule this year, how in the actual fuck is their SOS so high with that schedule?
  14. Yeah that is a remarkable resemblance. Watching Leinart at 0:33 left, that look on his face was so priceless, like "Fuck me. I've seen this fucking movie before". He knew what was about to happen.
  15. They have to prepare for it now though, so that's a good thing.
  16. Yeah if a qb with a lesser arm tries that same thing, it's probably picked by the DB coming across left to right, but that ball just had too much on it. 'Laser' is got damn right.
  17. Yep, even from game 1, some of us here were noticing the glaring lack of short & IM routes. It was like we were running 1/3 of a passing offense. Pretty baffling.
  18. Yep. Cam Dickey, from Crockett. I coached him in summer baseball for about his last 3 years here. Great kid, and a beast for Tech now. Good on 'im!
  19. The best way to defend the pass this week will be to get pressure on Marcel Reed.
  20. The Coen brothers might be a little too sophisticated for us. I'm thinking the Farrelly brothers might be a better fit ...
  21. #3? That's utterly baffling to me.
  22. 5-1 following the Flawduh loss.
  23. 1. ETA: 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ...
  24. He was just trying to get his head around 'the dead Reveille experience'.
