I've been hoping that A&M would pay up for both Hudson and Cook, although it sounds like they might not be interested in Cook

I was ambivalent on him, mostly because I don't watch gameday or his show, but since he got hilariously wasted in Ireland week zero during his show, he's leaned positive

For those interested, Draftkings has futures lines up Texas -11.5 vs Arizona State Clemson -4.5 vs Arizona State Oregon -1.5 vs Ohio State Oregon -6.5 vs Tennessee Notre Dame -2.5 vs Georgia Georgia -6.5 vs Indiana SMU -5.5 vs Boise State Penn State -12.5 vs Boise State They currently have Texas -11 vs Clemson

Two of arguably our offense's best performances this year came after byes; OU (6.7 yards per play against a solid defense while Quinn played like shit while probably still being injured) and Florida (8.8 yards per play, the most this season against a P4)

Houston needs to draft an interior OL at some point in the first two days of the draft (and probably also add a body in free agency), but I like the idea of drafting the highest upside DT on the board, which could be any of Derrick Harmon, Walter Nolen, Kenneth Grant, or Deone Walker.. or maybe even Alfred Collins I'd like to draft another TE too, although the first round might be too rich for that. While Stover is promising, it's a long developmental curve position and we need to get Stroud a stable of good TEs to play with for the future

You're playable after about nine months give or take, but it typically takes about another year to recover high end athleticism, unfortunately

From Bet the Board Carson Beck has one of the largest deltas in college football in passing efficiency when pressured and not pressured; QB#13 (out of 169 qualifiers) when clean, QB#139 when pressured Their pressure rate given up has decreased over the past three games since Tate Ratledge came back "Texas shockingly doesn't do that great a job at generating pressure as you'd think, roughly 40th in pressure generated, but they do a fantastic job of turning those pressures into sacks"

I think they did it for a reason. They're trying to rally the team around this and hoping it'll help them gel for the stretch run

- the ex player handling the appeal apparently does radio and sidelines reporting for the titans, the team that hates Houston the most - I think Al-Shamir not leaving the field in a timely fashion was probably held against him - I think Ryan’s and caserio’s public statements probably didn’t help It’s bullshit, but the NFL has never been consistent or logical with player punishment since Goodell has been running the show

He also never got punished for punching Roschon It'll get appealed down to two games, but I'm more than fine with him resting up. This team is really beat up, and they're locked into either the 3 or 4 seed

There's been some chatter that the NYJ could return to the well, either with him or Mangini

The letter mentions that it's three games in part due to him being a repeat offender, which makes more sense That specific play should merit a 0 game suspension with hefty fine, not three games

Also him essentially getting a month off, while hurting the defense over that stretch, would allow him to rest and would potentially get some other LBs some playing time (Harris, White) to hopefully get acclimated in the defense

If a defender gets suspended for three games for that, they need to change the sliding rules to disincentivize QBs waiting until the last second to slide

He runs the shit of his QBs, similar to Kittley. They better have a stable of running QBs if that’s his plan in the SEC Their offense fell of a cliff at the end of the season, curious to know exactly what happened there

That's.. a take

I think we'll be fine

This is all still up in the air. We'll see on Tuesday. Most likely they'll sort it to keep their options open for another week.

The 7 vs 10 matchup will almost certainly be an SEC vs Big 10 game, and they probably won't put Texas and Georgia on the same side of the bracket, so I don't think a two-seed Texas will see Georgia as the seven seed. I think we'd see something like Penn State (7) vs Bama (10), or Tennessee (7) vs Indiana (10) to avoid the third matchup before the title game If SMU sneaks in as an at-large, they'll be the 11 seed and we'll miss them
