  1. If only bizzle wasn’t stuck in that barren, internet wasteland known as Vancouver.
  2. PK is here to shutout the offense and bang @South Austin’s mom, and South Austin’s mom is waiting until after the game.
  3. Why the fuck do we keep snapping it with 20 seconds left in the clock?!
  4. Got dam. I love Satya so much. This is such a brilliant schtick. Makes me laugh every time. So true. The guy who was literally puking his guts out against Notre Dame to the tune of 2 INTs and 3.3 YPA and who was 6/18 for 64 yards against a shitty LSU defense. That guy scares me to death.
  5. WTF Sark! Just keep running the damn ball and stay ahead of the chains.
  6. Seriously. So far he claimed Gerry says we’re getting Hilson (definitely not what Gerry’s saying) and he’s calling A&M a poverty school in NIL. Anyone dumb enough to waste their time reading and responding to Spider2ybanana deserves what they get.
  7. You’re confusing the House settlement (schools paying players directly) with third-party NIL money. Schools will have a cap on what they can pay to players, but not third parties. Currently, there’s no legal way to put a cap on NIL from third parties. It would require a player’s union and a CBA, but even then I wouldn’t expect a cap on what a player can earn through NIL because that would mean th schools would pay to buy up all their NIL rights (in addition to the currently expected $22 million annual number for House) . There’s not a single sport in the world that has something like that.
  8. And this tracks with the eye test. Elko tends to play things pretty straight on early downs and his DL all weigh 285+ so it's hard to run on them early, but it's not a great pass rushing DL because of that. Once Elko gets the offense into passing downs, he dials up a lot of blitzes and his teams usually disguise them pretty well. Elko either gets home or gives up a big play. However, teams that throw on early downs or have success running on them and stay out of obvious passing downs tend to do pretty well against Elko. I noticed Auburn had a lot of success with the hard counts getting the LBs and DBs to show who's coming and then it was much easier to burn their blitzes. Unfortunately, we won't be able to do a lot of that on the road, so it will be up to Sark's play calling and the team executing to stay ahead on early downs. Our OL has to avoid false starts and holds this game. Those will absolutely kill drives against Elko's defense.
  9. Same. Palou is far and away the best driver in Indy, and it would be really cool to see how he does in F1. I think he'd do very well and could be a top 10 driver on the grid once he gets some experience and has a chance to acclimate. Palou raced some in the junior categories in Europe and showed some strong potential. There's actually a F3 race where he raced in Spain against Albon and Leclerc. He burned up his tires, because he wasn't used to having nurse Pirellis since he wasn't full time driver in the series, but he showed his potential before his tires gave out. Leclerc won obviously, because he's God's gift to racing and a future WDC (no bias from me on this description). I'll see if I can find it. It would make for some good offseason watching.
  10. Going from FSU to UT as a punter would be like a RB going from Army to a Mike Leach Air Raid offense. Who knows? Maybe he just really hates actually getting to play.
  11. TLDR "Is there any way us being brokedicks doesn't result in us turning into Nebraska? "No."
  12. Holy shit Thorne is awful. Coleman was wide open that whole play. Threw it late and behind him when it should’ve been an easy TD.
  13. This is what Thorne has done all year and why Auburn has so it won 4 games.
  14. What are you talking about? tOSU and Oregon are the heavy favorites for the 5 seed. Penn State doesn’t really have any shot at it, and IU will only be the favorite if they beat tOSU and go 12-0, in which case they’d deserve it.
  15. That was absolutely hilarious. He truly believed that Coach O was building a dynasty at LSU, and Joe Brady’s playbook being called by some geriatric also-ran would take them to the promised land.
  16. Yep, this is two years in a row now you can see the team has some talent, but they’re totally disjointed and lacking cohesion. The lack of coaching is painfully obvious, and makes it hard to watch.
  17. That’s how it is in every single other major sport around the world. Star players are more valuable than coaches.
  18. Early line opened at UT -4.5. We’ll see how it moves after Saturday. I’d guess it’ll end up around 5.5 or 6 unless A&M loses.
  19. I know whenever I see a 2.5 point line, I think the only way the favorite loses is if something very weird happens.
  20. He's definitely considered a day 3 pick right now. It's really hard to say whether that's more like round 5 or 7. I'm sure he'd run a good 40 time, but the other testing numbers aren't as certain. Considering his size and mediocre production, he'd have to test off the charts to go in Day 2. It would be great if we can convince him to stay and be more of a focal point next year. He'd make himself millions in guaranteed money if he can put together one year of great production.
