  1. It's Clem in human form
  2. Spoken like a man with years of experience.
  3. The older yell leaders are much more subdued and far less demonstrative than Roy, Class of 2015. His dance routine screams, "Look at me!". I don't think yell leaders added the ballerina spins until the 90's. Somebody who studies primitive cultures should look into it.
  4. Targeting has been a "point of emphasis" to improve player safety since its inception. Without the benefit of replay, TXHSFB officials are usually less prone to calling it unless it's blatantly obvious headhunting. We wanted to see "malicious intent" before throwing a flag. At the D1 college level, officials are actually encouraged to call it more often.
  5. This mindset is why aggy never wins anything of consequence. Victim mentality "It's the refs fault."
  6. In hindsight, I kinda wish we saved this play for aggy.
  7. Andrew Luck would've looked a helluva lot better in burnt orange, back in the day. 🤘
  8. Man, I'd love to see another Tech-A&M matchup. RIP, Pirate
  9. Did Beard sue UT for wrongful termination? I forget
  10. Maybe, but why would the SEC want to build up A&M at the expense of more tenured members like Bama, UGA, and Ole Miss? I hope you're wrong, bc that will drive me batshit crazy.
  11. OL DB RB For starters, anyway.
  12. I officiated TXHSFB for ten years (by NCAA rules) when the Targeting rule was first introduced. Truth be told, I wouldn't have called that foul today, seeing it at game speed. But, there were only 5 of us - not 8. We missed a lot of shit we probably should've flagged.
  13. No, that would be aggy.
  14. Actually, I read an article recently that claimed Kiffin has been on the wagon for a while now. I'd link it, but I forgot where I saw it. Now Joey Freshwater is into hot yoga. Read into that what you will. https://www.si.com/college-football/ole-miss-lane-kiffin-shared-powerful-message-about-his-sobriety
  15. Yeah, I wish the rule included "malicious intent", but it doesn't.
  16. I saw it at a bar I went to today, but it was probably ESPN+ or SEC+ if that's a thing.
  17. I agree that there didn't appear to be any "indication of targeting" with Smith's tackle. Another poster observed that the Arkansas player is only 5'6" (really?), making the helmet contact unavoidable. When in doubt, the officials will err on the side of caution. Of course, the replay official could've overruled the call, but didn't.
  18. Inquiring minds wanna know. Will Sark's status impact whether Arch stays? Stay tuned
  19. Yes, which is why I acknowledged that Samford is worse than SHSU.
  20. I only observed Sark in his usual squat, staring at his laminated play sheet.
  21. See for yourself. You can look at SEC members' future schedules at this link. https://fbschedules.com/sec-football-schedule/
  22. For better or worse, our OOC scheduling most years has included one marquee P4 opponent home-and-home. CDC is committed to a great "fan experience", so I don't see that changing under his watch. Moving forward, it'll be more of the same with two G6 opponents filling it out. https://fbschedules.com/ncaa/texas/
  23. I think we've already established that many on the CFB Playoff committee don't watch all of the games and only see the final scores. Is what it is.
  24. If we somehow miraculously get in, it'd be because TV and advertisers love them some Longhorns ratings. Just like Notre Dame
  25. This shit will never not be hilarious
