  1. Seems like this one might be pre-arranged
  2. Who is our 3rd OT next year? Seems like we have solid depth at iOL but a transfer OT might be needed in case of injury
  3. General Booty is in the portal!
  4. Jacob Manu, LB from Arizona who was 1st team All-PAC last year under Nansen, is in the portal. Looks like his stats dropped big time this year and probably not a position of focus for UT, but would be a nice one
  5. Branch or Barion Brown could be a good Silas Bolden replacement as returner and solid WR
  6. Well said. I'll add one thing that might be the most frustrating part of yesterday: Despite all the warranted teeth gnashing and "should'ves"...we fuckin outplayed Georgia. Sometimes you just get unlucky in sports. UGA had 3 fumbles that bounced right back to them or out of bounds. The INT off Bond popped up right to them, while the Barron deflection popped up right where a UGA WR was sitting to knock it away from Mukuba. And then of course...the refs. I hate blaming refs but that first half was atrocious and absolutely impacted the score. If one or two of those things bounce the other way, we're probably celebrating an SEC championship and all hailing King Sark.
  7. Damn yeah that's an easy 1st down with Golden
  8. Wow. At least two of the holding calls were on WRs too.
  9. Sheesh that was driving me absolutely crazy. Plus the one on Stockton that flew/rolled out of bounds instead of stopping in the field. And the almost Mukuba INT off the Barron deflection but they happened to have a WR right there to knock it down.
  10. Exactly how I feel. Very perplexing. The run game has been really good the last couple years, so I'll give the benefit of the doubt that this year is an aberration, but we haven't had an elite passing attack any year under Sark which is shocking.
  11. QE is pretty low down the list to blame for this loss imo. Was he perfect? No. But he didn't get help from anyone. Multiple drops that would have been first downs (one popping up for an INT). No run game. Penalties everywhere killing drives. Missed FGs. None of that is on him. His biggest issue yesterday, and idk how much of this is on playcalling, was the disappearing act every time we got in/near the red zone. I mean, how many times did we get to their 30? Like 6 or 7? And turned those into 12 total points including OT. The most painful being 1st down from the 14 at the end of regulation with plenty of time and a TD winning the game.
  12. I'm guessing they'll get John Mateer at QB since they just got his OC. Little Elm kid. Haven't watched him but with good numbers so unfortunately seems like a good get
  13. This. The fake punt allowed was particularly bad. We had two guys blocking the gunner on that side and neither even turned around to consider a fake. Would have easily been in position if they had. Also don't forget the blocked punt vs ATM. That's a coaching thing. Kern will get better/stronger with a full offseason but we shouldn't have gone into this season relying on a summer-enrollee true freshman. With that said, I can't blame the staff for thinking we were set at kicker this year considering how well Bert did last year. Kick and punt coverage are also strong as usual.
  14. Interesting that they have Texas and PSU staying ahead of ND with a loss, UGA ahead of tOSU, and SMU ahead of Bama. They're basically taking the approach that CCG losses won't be penalized. I'm not so sure that'll be the case even though it should.
  15. yeah this class sucks /s
  16. Are these numbers good?
  17. I fully support the idea of guaranteeing at least one team from multiple conferences, although Big 12 is lucky to be an auto-bid conference nowadays. The variety is good for the sport and teams barely play out of conference so comparing across conferences is a very rough science. What's dumb is the reranking after CCGs where someone like Texas or PSU can drop below ND, or SMU drops below Indiana. I mean, imagine making Indiana play tOSU again this weekend and factoring that L in the rankings.
  18. I'm guessing the "Juniors" who walked were all redshirt juniors, so seniors in the academic sense, but I haven't looked at the list so that could be wrong. I don't think Kelvin or Cam walked though either and safe to say they're gone. Regardless, definitely hope Golden comes back and it wouldn't be too shocking if he did
  19. Where do they have Golden? Mock Draft Database has him 6th round but I don't think it's reliable once you get past the 1st/2nd rounders
  20. Also, "I was waiting on a call with some determining factors" on signing day lol. Wonder what the determining factor$ were
  21. I can't see Blue getting drafted. Gibson just got a deal with Maserati Austin so I assume he's not portaling? RB room is pretty crowded, I could see Blue in the portal although Baxter's health is a wild card Golden and Taafe returning would be huge. I'm guessing both are mid to late rounders so could go either way but no real clue. What's the NFL projection on Trey Moore? Does he return or go pro?
  22. Interesting. Wonder if that includes suites/club as well
  23. Random question: do the home schools keep all the revenue from the 1st round playoff games? If so, that's potentially major cash source for programs especially with revenue sharing coming soon. Think about it: 100,000 tickets at an average of $250 would be $25 million in revenue. Obviously there is a large cost to hosting the event but then you also add in concessions, ads, etc. Idk what that all nets to but it has to be well into the millions.
  24. I was wondering about this too. Lots of Denton Ryan has come to Austin so seems strange to have no connection to a 5 star there
  25. So I assume OU is getting Mateer along with the new OC? Sounds like a pretty good get for them
