  1. Because Argentina was playing out of their minds, the last part of the game was close mostly because they were running out of gas.
  2. Definitely jumps into the top 3 of best sporting event (hype) AND game (quality) of my life 1) 06 Rose Bowl 2) Lakers Celtics Game 7 3) 22 World Cup final.
  3. The most glorious part of the transfer portal season is that their real predicted sieve has not happened yet, the ~20 5* DL they have for that 3 man front is going to want play time eventually, and even if they can retain the best players, that is going to be a treasure trove for whoever gets the leftovers. As for the unpredicted disaster (at the beginning) of the season the players getting kicked out, a crap OC hire, lack of institutional control. We could be looking at half their Greatest unbalanced Class Ever! not even being half there by Fall.
  4. And people are stupid enough to believe raw talent trumps experience, better fundamentals, teamwork, and being a few years older and stronger. While TCU avoided the hemorrhage after firing their coach you definitely need stability to have a upperclassmen roster, Jimbo has no excuse in year 5 but Sark definitely does in year 2.
  5. What a day, Aggie misery in F16, Aggie misery at the zoo. Its like those morons were designed to pick losers.
  6. We really need some of their D-line, Coburn and Sweat aren't coming back..and could lose another due to an ill advised draft projection. I mean the post was about ignoring their O talent.
  7. I will always enjoy the 05 season more than the gutter trash I was constantly telling to shut the fuck up on hornfans. The were literally willing to blow up the team on the first win of 20+ straight.
  8. Yeah people are being too emotional, the Kstate player just made an amazing play. Whining about one specific playcall is almost always so amateurish, the best I can accept are playcall patterns, they are not great in the second half but having an experienced team is the way to fix the puckering up.
  9. Star talent advantage is meaningless when going against super seniors, this is a legit criticism of Sark not having super seniors of his own in year 5, but not on year 2.
  10. I said my prediction was 9 wins, which is still fair and in line Bowl win Beat TCU Win one of Baylor or Kansas. That is still better than 99 which was a disaster late season.
  11. I said it is fine to make a mistake, I still think you should be more informed about Big XII standings before you post though
  12. Thread title is meaningless, thread title does not excuse mind drivel, that said he made a mistake which is fine, there is no "outside chance" UT still controls its own destiny. Outside chance is when the team is not mathematically eliminated.
  13. WTF did I just read, if Texas wins out they are an 11 win team. I sometimes prefer it when we suck and I don't visit these boards lol
  14. The problem is that they are being emotional pussies, instead of thinking rationally, we get the same stupid shit I have been dealing since the Mack years, the same mindless emotional haters wanted to turn Vince into a WR and fire Mack after Mizzou 04. And it is not even about being a pumper, I was literally the first one that wanted to fire Charlie Strong after his third game. Because I had seen what needed to see objectively.
  15. Like I said loser, we roll the dice, get someone like Jeff Tedford and rinse and repeat the current coaching carousel.
  16. I mean people are acting like the season is over and the team is barely bowl eligible, the team has 4-5 games left. A 9 win season is on par with 1999.
  17. Losers like you would have gotten rid of Mack Brown after 03
  18. Being a mindless hater is way way dumber. I always argue that the Aggies made an increadibly stupid mistake in getting rid of Sherman, he had the same late game collapses in 11, but what do you know he stockpiled and developed talent where their 12 team was NFL good. So Sumlin took credit for that with the complete inability to stockpile and develop NFL talent on his own. Leading to bad choices compounding the bad choices and they are where they are.
  19. Well I see a lot of promise, he is not perfect and I would love i if he had a talk with Mack about being clutch and playing loose more with big leads. But this is not an unfixable problem, Charlie Strong being horrific at XOs is never fixable, Herman being unliked by everyone is never fixable. But having the team play loose AND still execute is still doable. There are 4-5 games left. And they are going to be better odds at winning than last night.
  20. The reason the team loses second half leads is 100% mental, assholes gonna hate but from 02-13 Mack had a 19-2 record at UT when the margin of victory was just a field goal, he knew how to keep it loose. The great news is that this can be overcome quite easily, by you know winning on the road after having a 21 point lead. Exactly as what happened. That said Sark needs to dump his preplans and just let go when things are too tight. Throwing deep to Worthy is the best playstation play but in reality extremely demoralizing to the team, not to mention a lost down.
  21. Both played their best games against Saban, Roy touched the ball 5 times and completely owned that game, but Shipley and the designed jailbreak(?) bubble screen literally kept the game close against Bama. Change Simms with Gilbert and Texas goes undefeated in 09.
  22. What a stupid red herring, I said long career. not GOAT, learn to read.
  23. College kids are not rational, Leinart stayed, Ricky stayed, Peyton stayed, all this before NIL existed. Today it is potentially rational with NIL you can most definitely match a rookie contract had we been talking Vince in 05 (and he is here to tell them how much he regrets leaving early), With Brady playing into his mid 40s the rational thing for a QB is to set himself up for that kind of success (getting an extra year of that second contract is peanuts). It means learning the game to perfection, whether Sark can sell that to Arch or Ewers is the key to retaining them for more years (and NIL).
  24. Charlie Strong gutted his own roster the first year, imagine self imposed sanctions over a little weed... But the savants at Shaggy lapped it all up.
