  1. JFC, this guy wasn't under some giant police/media watch. Without looking, name 3 other witnesses from the trial who aren't Guyger or SexCop. He got killed, and then people tried to sensationalize his murder by linking it up. If he had gotten killed the week before the trial, it wouldn't have made a blurb on the news, despite OMG KEY WITNESS IN GUYGER CASE, because he mattered about 0.1% to the state's case.
  2. LR said yesterday they were "highly questionable" though lots of OU reporters saying Ealy likely, Swenson not. LR likes his subterfuge to a fault, so we should find out sometime shortly after 11AM Saturday.
  3. Yeah, our group parks outside of 10 a lot. Very easy in, coopin booth right there, corny dogs right there. Getting out is less good, traffic-wise, but very easy walk from the stadium to car if you are leaving right after. I have had good luck getting in and out in the long narrow lot just off Haskell when you come from Parry (3C). Coming in from 75, it's very easy to get to especially that early. Obv wax cup consumption will weigh in. I personally would only DART or Uber if I was leaving late to let the lines die down. GL and enjoy the day with your pops.
  4. I disagree with your premise about OU's backs, but that was a fair and well-thought-out response. Posrep.
  5. Not arguing that it means OU is a lock, WP posted that OU's RBs were "frankly not good" and also that the OL had taken a big step back. Pretty hard for both of those to be true, and OU still be dominant in the run game in all metrics. For the record, assertion #2 is accurate and #1 is completely absurd in every way. Also, OU's adjusted numbers looked exactly the same in 2018 on one side of the ball and dramatically different in 2018 on the other side of the ball. I would expect 45 points will be enough to win this year.
  6. So what is the proper measure of a run game if not adjusted yards per carry, in your opinion? They are also top 10 in adjusted rush yards/game and #1 in adjusted yards and adjusted points per possession.
  7. What time are you wanting to arrive?
  8. I like that one too! What does it say our shitty run game with our shitty RBs is in adjusted (so taking into account the worst 5 game schedule any team has ever had) yards per carry?
  9. Sure, that's what they want you to believe!
  10. That's only for the lames walking in late! Go in the fair at 8, no coopin lines, and no $5 "order fee." Ten bonus coops right there! That's 1.67 beers!
  11. The fairgrounds gates will open at same time as parking gates, 7am. The "Fair opens at 8" is the presumptive time for food and other booths to open, though some will open earlier.
  12. Right, sure, though maybe the Pokes have differing thoughts on the relative worth of Texas Tech. The point was the difference vs. Tech & KU as compared to vs. UCLA & UH, and those two groups of teams are roughly equivalent to each other.
  13. Yep, big step down for the OL this year. Hurts has been much different in the pocket the last 2 weeks, much more willing and able to progress through the reads. Obviously, things may be different in the Cotton Bowl in that environment, etc., but he looked MUCH more comfortable vs. Tech and KU than vs. UCLA and UH.
  14. Yep, could def call out OU OL and safeties, but the RBs are pretty excellent. Clemson is averaging 1.8ypc less than OU, Bama is averaging 2.6ypc less than OU, neither of them have played any worldbeaters either. OU was #1 in the country in YPC last year also, so it isn't just some random fluke because of 5 weak opponents this year. OU could go 31 carries for 0 yards Saturday and still be tied with UGA for ypc.
  15. LOL JFC. Stevenson: 29 car, 315y, 5 TD Sermon: 45 car, 345y, 4 TD Brooks: 25 car, 206y, TD Total is 99 car for 866, looks like 8.6y a carry. OU is averaging 7.9 yards per carry, #1 in the nation. #2 is Georgia at 6.8. (Texas is #42 at 4.6 ypc).
  16. StubHub will have last minute pickup booths in Dallas. Pretty sure they actually have one at the fair. Can't take it alllll the way to kick, but closer than you could if they didn't have those, and you still get to take advantage of the desperation. StubHub is brutal on higher price tickets though, because the fees just make ya wanna puke.
  17. The semi-credible OU reporters I've heard think that Ealy should be back, but probably not Swenson. OU has started 5 different OL combos in their 5 games, definitely something to watch for.
  18. This was my suspicion, glad to have it confirmed.
  19. That's a per person minimum, not a cumulative! I may try to keep a running tally this year, and really should be able to rack it up, since it's gonna be in the 60s instead of the 90s like the last couple years. We also usually share lots of items as a group to allow maximum variety, lots of items if you just did it yourself, you're getting KO'd too fast. Obv everyone has to have their own Fletcher's (or 2). I had two and a Cheesy Pup last year.
  20. Nah man you gotta treat fair food like bad players treat poker hands. Do I want to see the flop with this hand/eat this item? If yes - how much to see the flop/purchase this item? Then pay that amount. It’s just coopins! Not even money! Wheee!
  21. I'm gonna need a wetter board to fold AA with a SPR of less than 3. It doesn't take many straight/flush draws in his range to give us a reason to go with it. Also we have literally the top of our range here, the best hand we can possibly have, as I'm assuming we don't make it $12 here with 55 or 77 OOP, and even if we do, we aren't ever leading 775 is my guess. So if we are folding this, we are folding 100% of our range. Can't fold it against a player who is "splashy." Give me OMC in a WWII veteran hat and yep. Or maybe someone jamming over the $100.
  22. Yeah, the best thing about the 11am kick is all the vendors are open by 8am. When we had the afternoon kick a while back, lots of them didn't open til 10, and then there were lots of lines and rabble. Our plan every year: Park at the fair by 7am. Drink in the parking lot til 745 to create a solid base. Corny dog at 8am. Fried butter with cinnamon and honey at 820am. Food court at 830am, assorted foods and beers. Enter stadium at 1030am. Leave stadium at 3pm, head to the far corners of the fair away from the shitshow on Nimitz. Hang until 10pm, consuming a minimum of 5000 calories and a hunnerd dollars worth of coopins.
