  1. Not that it really matters, because anyone is a fit... Jimbo's playbook Garbage Garbage Trash PUNT!
  2. Correction. 1. aggy runs its mount about how great they ARE. 2. Today, 9/1/1939 is the accepted starting date of WWII. But, at the time, it was considered a European War (and a.separate Asian War already being fought), and escalated to a World War with the attack on Pear Harbor.... So aggy hasn't won shit since BEFORE WWII. 3. Nobody thinks that shit it weird. It IS weird.
  3. It doesn't help that all those crankheads are some broke ass mother fuckers just like their state.

    This is correct. The Mannings have been doing this a long time. They are working towards Arch having a long and lucrative NFL career. That's the reason they are in no rush his development. That's the reason they stated a RS season isn't a problem. As for staying through a senior year, it's hard to say. I have a feeling it depends on how close we are to capping his college career with a NC, and how well our O-line protects. Risk vs reward is likely the deciding factor for the years he plays college ball. Money isn't going to be the biggest thing. They know the better he is in college, the more he will make in the NFL, and the more experience and maturity he has going into the NFL, the better the odds of him succeeding once there....
  5. And that's a reminder of how bad ass Colt was. His Junior and Senior years were spent behind a Swiss Cheese Line with O RB help.
  6. If I remember right, while he was at OSU, due to the QBs they had on campus, the true freshmen QBs had minimal practice workouts, and Ewers had even less because he was one of the scout team's QBs. This was one of the main reason he transfered after that year. Ewers came into a new system, without playing or even having a lot of practice in the prior two years. He might as well be a true freshman with two years of inactivity from his last HS game and his first College game. it has not been pretty at times. But at times, it's effortless for him. I get the feel he expected more out of himself and tried to shoulder the team, but it didn't work out that way. Throws he made 2 years ago consistently, were off this year, which had/has him thinking about the throw too much and it shows. When the receiver is open, it's almost as if he's in the pocket praying "please be a good throw, please be a good throw", and we've seen how it goes. But then other times, especially when he spots someone open he didn't expect, he does his wrist flick without a second thought and nails a dime, effortlessly. He's been up and down for sure, and it hasn't been pretty. A lot of it has been on him, but there's been plenty of times when the receivers haven't done him any favors, added to an O-line that's had it's share of breakdowns. Yes he could've played a little better... Or he could've played worse. It's possible he's still banged up. I remember Colt's sophomore year, his shoulder caused issues with accuracy and under throwing the deeper routes. I think Ewers will be okay next year. He did leave the door open for competition with Arch though, so if I'm mistaken, we have another top QB recruit to lean on. Training camp is going to be interesting next year.
  7. I know. Maybe it was the coach, maybe it was the team, but I just Didn't enjoy the season. I haven't enjoyed our running game since JC entered the draft early.
  8. Well, at least this year, they were even both ways against OU/UT. Hell, I was so used to having all hold calls go against Texas, while OU players got by with bear hugs and shit. That's the only game we will get somewhat of a break, if we are still here next year, but it will be pretty ugly in the rest.
  9. I believe Ewers will be just fine next year. He might as well be a true freshman, with a long gap between his last HS game and his first college game. He's had his moments, both good and bad, but drop balls and O line break downs from time to time, haven't helped either. I would love to RS Arch. I am going to miss Bijan. Until Bijan came along, I hadn't been excited about handing the ball off in a decade.
  10. 34 Texas. 24 Baylor Bijan. 163 yards.
  11. Isn't that the green light to use both holes to pick her up like a bowling ball if you find her passed out somewhere? Asking for a friend...
  12. Their only two P-5 wins were against Miami, who has lost to Middle Tennessee and Arkansas, who lost to Liberty. What else is needed to prove preseason polls need to end. The 6th ranked aggy is going to end the season ranked something like 106th in spite of wins over two high ranked teams at the time they played.
  13. "The attendance today is 90,000. This must be a typo. Excluding the ones who must be here today, such as myself, security, both teams, the band and such, the attendance is somewhere around 193-whatever year that was, to commemorate our last National Championship".
  14. Yeah, but how could anyone in the booth, look down at that crowd, and make that announcement out loud without busting up within the first three words coming out of their mouth?
  15. I love aggy on aggy strongly worded letters.
  16. Last in the SEC before 1st in their own division. Poor aggy
  17. I know... It does suck having to rely on Kansas for help though.
  18. They're all down on the other side of the field tearing down the goal post. Hell of a victory today. Whoop
  19. They're just trying to match their football team this season
  20. I've never found a reason to look forward to Dec 5th until this year.
  21. Stupid sips. Anything Texas can do, aggy does better! 5-7? Aggy gone 4-8! Lose to Kansas? Aggy gets done by App St. Whoop!
  22. Defense came to play.
  23. 38-28 Texas 789 combined passing yards Texas 234 rushing yards. Their run defense is very exploitable.
  24. It might not be ethical, but if I were friends with the SEC coaches, you can be sure I'd jokingly-not jokingly throw out there that we should think about throwing 'ol Jimbo a 9-3 / 10-2 life line in a season or two. Why throw away a good thing! But then again, its never mattered who's coaching aggy, they've been a .500 in conference play their entire 120+ years.
  25. Nothing to explain. It's an aggy turdition to attempt to buy championships, just to have it blow up in their face. Never discount aggy to aggy shit up. From FedEx deliveries, and gold Trans-Ams, to buying but not buying the number one all time class via NIL. Aggy is at the top of the list of dirtiest,most sanctioned programs of all times. The NCAA had planned to hit aggy with the death penalty just a few years after SMU, but what the death penalty did to SMU, was way more severe than they expected, so they backed away from its use... Especially since once again, the cheating didn't keep aggy from being the mid tier, mid pack team its always been anymore than any other time they'd been busted had. No harm, less foul. And in true aggy form, not only are they at the top in cheating, they are recognized as the worse at gaining from it. The other big time cheaters won conference and national titles, and were at the top of the pile for 2 or 3 years or so, but aggy never got its cheating to pay off like the others.
