  1. I have a good feeling about this game, only because right after Texas beat OU the first time, everyone was just saying it was luck and OU was the better team. Now OU is favored by almost a touchdown. This team just has to feel disrespected by that.
  2. texas again playing down to their opponents level. why is this so hard?
  3. Part of that is not stopping the damn clock after every first down for no apparent reason, except to make the game last 4 hours or more.
  4. Dilly Dilly! Vince was going to stomp over any college defense you put in front of him. He was unstoppable at the collegiate level.
  5. All I know is it's too fucking much. It makes me not even want to watch football sometimes. 1. Cut down on the unnecessary TV timeouts. 2. Don't stop the clock after every first down. 3. Cut the play clock down to 30 from 40. All of that would make the game much more enjoyable to watch.
  6. it's amazing what getting consistent pressure on the quarterback can do for your defense
  7. Alright boys win our last two games and we're in. We control our destiny now.
  8. I honestly don't see this being a very good fit. Much like Mack, Les Miles was successful by being an elite recruiter, not an X's and O's mastermind. Kansas may see an uptick in recruiting, but their recruits will still be of lower quality than most of the conference. Not a bad hire, but not really a game changer like Mangino.
  9. I think that is a misconception and not actually the case. For instance, you have computer rankings like Sagarin, which are unbiased, ranking UCF at 23 right now. If anything, the CFP is giving UCF the benefit of the doubt by ranking them so high. People may complain that it is unfair, but it isn't actually true.
  10. I don't think we should be giving preferential treatment to P5 teams over G5 teams. Just take the top 5 ranked conference champs and 3 at large. Most years that is going to be P5 teams anyway and no one can cry about it being unfair.
  11. Put me in the I don't give a shit either way category. OU has always been our true rival, aggy is just annoying little brother.
  12. You don't just walk to in to bye week and expect to win a football game.
  13. One game is not going to define us. I believe Herman is going to get us to where we want to be, eventually. That being said, a win against ISU, KU, and an appearance in the Big 12 title game would just leave me tickled.
  14. It doesn't really matter who makes it in from the Big 12, they're gonna get trounced by the second round. The teams that don't deserve the title will get beat, simple as that.
  15. Instead of replacing LSU with UCF, I would put either West Virginia or Washington State in. That looks a hell of a lot better than what we have now.
  16. So when are they gonna expand this shitshow to 8 teams? This shit is barely better than the BCS.
  17. If a team gets 600 yards but only scores 20 points, but the team they play against gets 400 yards and scores 23, does it matter who had more yards? Any ranking system that had Texas in the 40's after being 6-1 at that point in time, with a tough SOS in tow, immediately disqualifies itself.
  18. So people are using one data point to justify ranking Texas so low? The S&P+ is very far off from all the other ranking systems, and that's because it uses asinine statistics to come up with the rating. The only thing that matters in football is the SCORE. You can gain all the yards you want, in whatever manner you want, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't put points on the board.
