  1. Texas vs. Duke: Injury notes ahead of Tuesday's season opener (Sunday 2:38pm CT) - Gerry I am excited for Miller's tenure here and have a lot of optimism. However, lay the points in this one. It looks like it's going to the typical blowout by Duke. Duke -7.5 seems too small given it's the first game of the season and Texas isn't full strength.
  2. Sarkisian Made the Adjustment, Now He Must Stick With It (Sunday) - Vogel (OTF) More about how bad we've been in 12 personnel and how good 11 has been.
  3. Monday - Bobby

  5. I'm not worried. CFP committee values H2H and SOS. This should be fixed in the first set of rankings. If it's not, then we can rabble rouse.
  6. Well, hopefully Navy or Pitt gets them, because Syracuse and Stanford are both absolute dog shit.
  7. Sunday - Bobby
  8. Playoffs? Playoffs?: Texas' path at 9-3 - Gerry
  9. The 4th quarter was just terrible coaching all around. Bad strategy by both Sark and PK. The injuries to our safeties didn’t help, either.
  10. Stowers’ first TD absolutely was
  11. I agree with everything you said. I also have no faith in his ability not to create a close game when it shouldn’t be. Texas was up 34-10 in the 4th quarter, Sark turtles for absolutely no reason, and we saw what happened.
  12. Exactly. Sark needs to learn not to fucking turtle anymore.
  13. I will give him all the credit in the world for turning around the program since Herman, but what has he shown us to inspire confidence in his in-game decision making? It has been consistently poor when it matters most. But hey, at least your Mustangs are about to help out our playoff chances.
  14. 9-3 Texas with three top-10 victories may very well make it. Just going to need some help for it to happen.
  15. I have absolutely no belief in Sark. Just repeatedly does the stupidest shit to make games close when they shouldn’t be.
  16. Another blatant hold not called
  17. Fucking turtle Sark doing his shit again all 4th quarter.
  18. Thank God Texas has a bye next week with all these injuries
  19. Holy shit... Death Oliver died by suicide from a self-inflicted gunshot on September 24, 2013.[14] He is survived by his wife Chelsea (née Young), and two children.[15] Police on the incident state that Oliver shot himself in front of his wife and his two young boys.[16] It was later determined through analysis of Oliver's brain that he suffered from an advanced form of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, caused by repeated hits to the head he endured during his football playing career.[17] He is one of at least 345 NFL players to be diagnosed after death with this disease.[18]
  20. Choot 'em, Elizabeth!
  21. Not at all. In a vacuum, two weeks from now is better. However, concussion symptoms can last a few days to months, or even years. Bobby reported that Arch's concussion was considered "slight." However, the risk of re-injury is always higher following a first concussion, with risk compounding with each occurrence of TBI thereafter - especially so if the trauma occurs soon after a preceding concussion. Therefore, while diagnostic symptoms might subside, risk does not. This is why I am saying it is more nuanced than simply passing RTP protocols. Passing protocol ≠ an elimination of risk, or even an absence of elevated risk. No matter what, if Arch plays Saturday, he has both a heightened risk of re-injury, as well as a heightened risk of greater injury. I certainly to not have access to Arch's medical record, his real-time progress, symptoms, etc. However, doctors clearing him does not do anything to the fact that he will be at elevated risk if he plays this Saturday. They're simply clearing him based on formulaic symptom existence/the lack thereof. Accordingly, I don't believe he'll be at his best regardless of what Texas' doctors say. He'll likely be tentative, less mobile, and potentially neurologically delayed (even if it's imperceptible outside of game-time conditions). It's likely that Texas will have a sub-optimal version of Arch if he plays, which I why I personally believe they should start Caldwell and see what happens. Not to mention the elevated risk factors I laid out above.
  22. It's more nuanced than that. While RTP concussion protocols are formulaic pathways, post concussive symptoms, especially processing speed, decision-making, noise tolerance, activity tolerance, what happens when he's hit again, etc., are much more variable. It's basically impossible to simulate a real game environment to tell how Arch is realistically going to respond if he's trotted out there on Saturday.
  23. I completely agree with you. It's highly unlikely that Texas will get an outcome where: 1. Arch is as effective of a QB as he can be 2. He's able to, and without reservation, use his mobility 3. Is not re injured/more severely injured. I'd rather Caldwell start and the staff see if they possibly need to go to Arch.
  24. The Latest on Arch Manning (Friday 10:37 a.m.) - Vogel "But things are trending in the right direction to seeing No. 16 behind center on Saturday barring a set back. The Friday evening Availability Report will drop this evening around 7:10 p.m. I would expect a QUESTIONABLE or GAME-TIME DECISION designation for Manning. Texas is not fully in the clear, but right now, it's at an encouraging stage."
