  1. The minute Surly starts talking doom and gloom and firing coaches, things like this happen. Never fails whatever the sport. Lol.
  2. Rule has a lot of bark, but very little bite. Teams will just say the heck with it and take the five yards. I like the comment above about making the player ineligible for the rest of the series no matter if it last one minute or five. And you will see coaches sending out a hand signal or something that will tell a designated player to fake the injury on the next play immediately after the whistle is blown so the injury timeout is called before the ball is set. This is when the player safety argument should come in and something like the player has to sit out more than one play before reentering. I mean good grief they make a player leave for a play for his helmet flying off with little or no contact.
  3. Yep. I was thinking the same. Got out of the inning with a nice DP.
  4. Why do OSU facilities have the crappiest camera angles?
  5. Likely. Rig 12 is going to Rig 12 us when they can. Just like the good ol days. Lol.
  6. Now available on a plastic cup
  7. Did they put the W in the win column so their 2025 schedule on their webpage shows them 1-0?
  8. I grew up down in the RGV, so it’s refreshing to see the RGV finally embrace the athletic program down there after years of it being an after thought. It had its moments such as when the Broncs were winning basketball games under a young buck named Lon Kruger and the Fieldhouse drew some crowds. But at the same time the baseball team was competitive during the era under Al Ogletree and the interest was just not there. They used to host back to back tourneys for which teams from the Big 10 and other parts of the snow belt would spend the better part of February and March down in Edinburg which indeed helped get Pan American Baseball on the map nationally. Fast forward to the present and the thing that is finally helping the athletic program overall is the business community finally opening its wallets whether it be some of the local fat cats or national brands. With all the growth the region has enjoyed, much like we see in Austin or San Antonio, they see the benefit now of being associated with the local college sports program. As much as I hate to say it because I have a place in my heart for Texas A&I, it’s athletic program is hanging on for dear life and in particular football because UTRGV football is going to suck the remaining oxygen out it.
  9. And hairy armpits.
  10. We should let that 57-7 scoreboard with the last game with Tech live for infamy much like the FG with aggy had we not joined the SEC.
  11. In other words, OU should just become a Softball school much like Nebraska is a Volleyball school .
  12. If OU wins less than 8 game this year, Burnt Vegetables is gone.
  13. They won’t realize what a bad hire Bjork is until maybe next academic year. It was a real head scratcher they hired him right after the Jimbo fall out. You’d think some of the Ohio State BMD’s would’ve raised concern on this alone?
  14. Didn’t understand why they hired Trev in the first place. But then it dawned on me this was aggy. They started their SEC path with Dollar Bill and then lured Woodward from LSU. Then Woodward got smart and bailed to LSU (his alma mater) and they replaced him with Bjork who in turn lost trust from the aggy Boosters and fan base because he lost the “Gentlemen’s Agreement” aggy had with the SEC to keep Texas out of the SEC. He also was partially responsible for the Jimbo debacle, so I can’t blame the aggy BMD’s for not trying to keep him from leaving the sinking ship and going to Ohio State. But then they hire Trev? His only claim to fame at Nebraska is his playing days and managing to sell out Corn’s football stadium for a Volleyball game?
