Awesome JUGS machine
I thought this thread was about our nagging issues with WR drops, but I was sorely mistaken

Everyone needs to relax - there's no way we're going into Lubbock or Norman and winning, and there's certainly no way we're beating either of Kansas or Baylor who have only lost to each other in the Big 12 thus far.

Hindsight is 20/20- The 2019-20 Texas Longhorns thread
To go 3-3, we'd have to beat OU and KSU at home, then probably win at Oklahoma State (or somehow beat Kansas at home). Oklahoma seems pretty similar to Texas - got blown out by an okay Stanford team and then lost closer ones to Creighton and Wichita State. KSU is probably worse than Texas. Oklahoma State is better than Texas by the metrics but not so far out of reach. The path to the tourney (I think) looks something like Beat Iowa State, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Oklahoma, and TCU at home (should be doable even with this team's jekyll and hyde act). Beat Tech, and one of WVU, Kansas, or Baylor at home. Win at two out of Iowa State, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Oklahoma, and TCU on the road. Beat LSU at home. That gets you to 20-11 (9-9) with I think 6 or 7 Q1 wins. So long as they beat two out of Tech, WVU, Kansas, and Baylor (e.g. win 2/8 tries) + LSU, 8-10 might get you in, though you're probably a play in 12 at that point.

What time is it ok to start drinking for a 7 pm game?
Staying at an Airbnb on South Congress - 45 min walk to the stadium. My mission is to have one beer for every minute of that walk over the next 11 hours.. See you at the game (or at the morgue)

Ronald Reagan... My God
Newly released tape from the Nixon Presidential Library shows Ronald Reagan making racist or at least racially tinged comments to Richard Nixon about African delegates to the UN in 1971. So that's pretty bad. The other part of the story that I found interesting is: The thing that I don't understand is why there was a differential application of privacy just to this portion of the tape. Like I understand the argument that this is private communication, so you can't release all of the tapes. But why would you only apply that privacy standard to a small portion of the tape?

S&P+ rankings: Overperformance or overcorrection?
His system overweights DB tackles in a particularly weird way for some reason - so the loss of Boyd + Davis looms large in his system

S&P+ rankings: Overperformance or overcorrection?
LJH was a 1,000 yard receiver, we lost two senior corners that tackled a lot and our entire DL + Gary Johnson, and Tre Watson was our leading rusher thanks to his late in the year surge, though Keaontay Ingram is arguably more talented. That's not to say that if McCoy is cleared, then the freshmen plus a year of growth from Duve can't replace LJH, that Ingram can't be a feature back, and that our stable of safeties and young corners can't ride their talent to comparable results. But statistically, that's not a common thing to bet on - only the very best teams (Clemson, Bama, etc) tend to match performance YOY despite a significant youth movement.

such a dumb play by the Utah QB, if he falls down at the 10 yard line they can run more clock
