seriously, spoiled billionaire being pouty is a terrible look. There’s rumors Pap Stroll will sell to a Saudi group and have Aston focus on WEC with Lance moving over there. That would certainly be interesting. While we’re at it, there’s also rumors Audi’s not going Greta with development and their Board is reviewing whether to scrap the F1 move. It could open up another avenue for Andretti, if true.

You’re calling for Ford to be benched for Blackwell?

Offense gifted them two short fields. Quinn’s fumble gave them the ball at the 50, and defense forced a 3 and out to avoid a score.

You’re just flat out wrong. We’ve been up by 3 scores with 8+ minutes left in the 4th in 4/6 games. That’s the definition of garbage time. We haven’t had that many coverage busts relative to other college defenses. Most of the deep balls on us have just been guys getting beat, like Watts (3x Baylor and Kansas) and Thompson (Bama game). The nature of these college schemes requires complicated zones and pattern marching coverages. Offenses know they force these defenses and then call plays to put those coverage sin conflict. Every college defense makes mistakes on these, but we’re not particularly bad at this. It’s just another instance of Texas fans paying way more attention to Texas than other teams. PK let them go 70 yards in less than 30 seconds by playing prevent/off coverages that gave up way too much space. They had 3 straight passing plays for 11, 16, and 28 plus a PI to get to our 6 in 28 seconds. That was the biggest issue.

Your standards for defense might’ve been accurate in 2003, but it’s 2023. Giving up 200+ pass yards per game means nothing, especially when you’re not removing garbage time. Regarding our defense before the last drive (which we all agree was a fuck up by PK), Gabriel was 19/34 for 227 yards before the last drive. Holding a top 10 offense to 55% completion for under 7 YPA is absolutely a good performance in pass defense.

This is a ridiculous overreaction. Our pass defense was good for most of the game, and by any advanced metric, we have a top 10 defense in the country (5th in FEI and 7th F+). The two biggest mistakes by PK in the game were 1)playing way too off at the end of the half and end of game (he turtles into prevent way too much at the end of halves and games) and 2) not accounting for the QB run. Fortunately, not of those are very fixable. We’ll have to see if they get fixed moving forward. I think the second one will, not so sure about the first. But this loss was much more on the offense and turnovers than the defense. Quinn threw 2 picks, fumbled, and we hit the punter on 4th and 3. You're not going to beat many top 15 teams in the country when you have 4 turnovers.

Give it one more race and Piastri will be ahead of Alpine too. Just goes to show, you can never go wrong by leaving Renault/Alpine.

It don't make a shit. If we take care of business (including beating bye week) then we'll be ranked where we should be and have a shot at the Rig12 CCG and possibly beyond. USC almost got beat by a very mediocre ASU and domer got beat by Loserville so they're out of it. If both us and BloU take care of our remaining schedule they won't hold a last second L to a one loss BloU (the loss we give them later) against us too badly. Congratulations. You just wrote a more TexAgs post than most of the screenshots in this thread, complete with moronic nicknames, like Rig 12 and Loserville.

Checo is generally fast in the race, so it definitely leaks a lot more toward #2 than #1.

A self-absorbed lawyer who can’t put a period at the right spot at the end of the sentence saying he never makes mistakes is pretty great.

He spends most of his time on TexAgs. What do you expect?

Fuck Lance Stroll. Maybe the pressure of not deserving a seat is actually getting to him.

I’ve noticed Trill Carter has been starting to get more and more snaps. He was hurt early in the year, but looks healthy now, and he’s a very solid rotation player on an elite DL.

This is exactly why Jimbo is the perfect aggy coach, and I hope he stays there forever.

I can’t wait to hear 2025 Crofty awkwardly exclaim that an unnamed team who can’t be shown on television has overtaken Liam Lawson’s Alpha Tauri around the outside of Maggots and Becketts to move into 10th place.

Our long snapper was horrible today. He noticeable screwed up Auburn timing multiple kicks with high snaps. Auburn still missed 1 with a good snap, but the snapper has to get better. This is such a dumb post. There’s always been a competition for the job, and Auburn has beaten all the other guys out. Putting in some new kicker who’s never kicked a college field goal in his life in the middle of a season with playoff aspirations will not improve things.

Yep. He looked more decisive in the Rice game, but he’s been banged up since then. I don’t think he’s 100% yet. Brooks is showing incredible vision. He’s hitting the hole fast and making the right decision almost every time. He’s been so impressive the last few games.

Math is hard.

We had a LB and DB staying backside accounting for the QB and RB. It was far from a given they get that.

Seriously. A bunch of posters have their panties in a wad right now.

I assume Helm lined up wrong so that he was ineligible.

It was 1st and 25. The correct move was to play slow until we got that conversion. Sark definitely should’ve called a TO after that though.

Of all the things to get mad about, that was probably the dumbest thing you could’ve picked. We have 342 yards in a half. Moving the ball hasn’t been our issue.

Not just anyone can complete 60% of their passes for 210 yards with a pick 6 against a terrible defense.

I sort of agree with this, but there’s a lot of risk in considering that. I’m sure RB would’ve retired Checo every time he made the slightest contact with Lewis in 2021 if the outcome was taken into account.
