  1. I think the biggest issue with Flood was personnel management, when the pancake factory started, people (myself included) deluded themselves into thinking it would turn into the new standard with high 4 and 5 star talent. But after that it was back to normal and we still we deluded ourselves into thinking Flood would develop them, 2023 class? sure you go with projects, but the projects kept coming class after class and we had it all explode in our faces this year. We are now desperate for transfers and then pray that they can mesh quickly for our all-in season next year. Flood needs to go, I said it before but the best HC hires need an elective/minor in OL because Sark should have seen it coming as well.
  2. Derrick Johnson also left after the 2004 season (but as a 4 year player), I remember feeling really down about that considering the expectations for 05, let's hope for a repeat.
  3. The run blocking was never really good, it was their pass blocking that was elite but with a poor pocket presence QB, and they also had the occasional screw up (GA regular season). Sark needs to know that his "execution, execution" mantra is just wishful thinking, he fucked up bad.
  4. I wish we could agree with Sherrone Moore about play a low contact game, make it a glorified scrimmage to build for next year.
  5. Why are people bitching about a position with so much rotation like RB? are we just whining about a hypothetical that Wisner walks because we get help in the portal? mad because Baxter will portal? we just up Wisner's NIL because he is worth it he has elite vision and patience, it's dumb to get rid of that, it's dumb to go cheap on that.
  6. The biggest thing that pisses me off is the lack of respect or more specifically consistency, Bama jumped undefeated FSU, a fucking undefeated team with zero bad losses ala fLoRIda, undefeated is a sacred record that requires gigantic mental gymnastics to punish. Teams can't really pick their schedule (unless you are ND), Nobody wants to play Boise st and that should not be held against them, that is why we needed a playoff so that all undefeated teams stood a chance. but add one loss and they are just as fault as losing to FlOridA, the justice goes out the window, let alone 2 loss teams like ND, if they want in then they should not have lost to gomers, and I don't care that UT has 3 losses because we played 5 top 10 teams and ended up 3-2.
  7. BS OU gets the benefit of the doubt over Texas regardless of coaches. Muschamp was also given a pass by our dumbass fan base for that loss
  8. Why are you like this? Of course we are not in you are completely ignoring the automatic bids. Texas needed #12 with Bama and BYU ahead and even then it was unlikely. We are 13 this is the committee telling UT it is out for good.
  9. Went 2-0 vs Manziel Jr extrapolating probably gone 2-0 vs Manziel Sr
  10. No, there will be two of VA/Duke, JMU, Tulane, even UNLV. Texas at #11 still means first one out.
  11. I mean Purdue is right there, frankly it is more about carrying out the threat after you made it, nobody is getting hurt, just cancel the ND series and force them to joing a conference. They used to schedule better before they half joined the weak ACC.
  12. I just wish for another COVID to cancel the posteason.
  13. We were the most disrespected wire to penultimate wire #2 in history, it was more than just USC vs all historical teams, Corso even said he was picking a shock the universe texas pick. That said after tOSU no team was getting to #2 even if there were other undefeateds.
  14. I am not upset because we play like shit on the road, had the playoffs been pure bowl games I might be pissed.
  15. Cancel the ND game, the committee has one 5 days to correct course. Keep the other two and decide later.
  16. I know people loved to bitch at Akina on his second stint, but Kade Phillips and Kobe Black made huge strides this season. Grace Littleton was a ready made player based on his performance vs Jeremiah Smith. Maybe get a safeties coach and keep him coaching corner.
  17. UH the word is pretty popular today aka Agent Krasnov.
  18. It is very clear that two lower ranked conf champs will leapfrog a losing Bama, the point is moot now only Miami making the CCG could have changed this dynamic but they are also behind Bama. The CFP will decide our fate tomorrow, if they are radical they need to put us at 12 below Bama and BYU, anything lower like say 13, or 12 with Bama behind us means we are not getting in period.
  19. Yeah how do you determine odds on a committee decision? I know vegas is stupid sometimes but what stops the committee from taking Texas at +2500 and putting us in? money trail yadda yadda yadda but inside trading on bets is legal no?
  20. It's still just semantics, until they go with something like FPI then they are not picking what we define Best on this board, it is a subjective interpretation of Best AND Deserving. Texas is better than BYU IMHO, even with 7 losses, that said considering our brutal SOS a one loss delta should be enough to overcome,Texas is more deserving than a 2 loss BYU, but not more than a 1 loss BYU.
  21. This is not correct, see the conf champs autobids that also include a G5 champ. They are just using the colloquial definition of best, in this definition Tulane, JMU, et al are the colloquial best when we all know they are not in what WE define as best, in what Vegas defines as best.
  22. I thought about that, but he went all Nazi on Mexicans as well.
  23. Of course deserves matters, why fucking play the games if we are just going to decide games based on Vegas lines? that said playing an extremely hard schedule, one specifically chosen to be brutal by picking a deathstar program in tOSU, means that Texas with 3 losses does deserve to be in over a team with much weaker schedule and two losses, and yes SOS calculations are not good enough to measure 5 top 10 games. Hell there were 3 top 5 games. The answer is simple If you obsess about losses than only Q1 record matters, SOS is irrelevant
  24. Yeah this board will never lose its little bitch reputation.
  25. Its the hispanic hemorrhage. it appears that all the GOP gains since 2016 has evaporated among hispanics.
