    Chargers just had their TE motion Under center to take a direct snap for the first.  Maybe try that?

    Or how about lining up a RB, WR, or backup QB to run single wing in the red zone?

  2. Does anybody remember seeing Duke with the smiling Devil on their helmets?

    A white football helmet with a blue devil logo on the side, mid-air against a backdrop of a stadium with blue seating and a partly cloudy sky.

    City and town nicknames work better as a helmet bumper than a decal, IMO.

    You shut your dirty whore mouth!

    Rice's cavernous, uncomfortable stadium is greatness, the site of Super Bowl 8 when Miami defeated the Viqueens.

    The MOB ... who infuriated aggy so much, in 1973, they had to be transported out of the stadium in food service trucks to avoid aggy angst.

    And of course, Valhalla... a true dive bar in the basement of the Chemistry building on campus.

    A lot to do in Houston.

    So, save us the comparison to the Texas State Teacher's School.

    Hey, I'm from Houston so I know a little bit about Rice and its culture. Sorry to have never enjoyed a drink at Valhalla, so I'll take your word on its charms. To your point, The MOB is probably the coolest thing about that place.

    I have no particular feelings on Rice just because we haven't played them during my football-watching lifetime.

    You aren't missing anything.

    Rice is a goofy, nerdy, wannabe Ivy League school that doesn't take football seriously enough to stay in FBS. The first CFB game I ever saw in person was Rice vs Bayor at their cavernous stadium in 1980. Walter Abercrombie took the opening toss sweep 80 yards for a TD on the first play of the game, and it didn't get any better from there.

    TXST > Rice

    I see ND had a long series with Indiana in the late 19th and early 20th century, presumably for the same reasons. I don’t know why they stopped playing much for the last six decades. Are you ok with ND being given a slate that has them playing g Indiana every year? Because of the history?

    Probably bc Indiana and Purdue got tired of getting beaten by ND's hired, Chicago thugs.

    As a fan of the sport with no rooting interest in either side, Texas playing SMU would be way more interesting to me than Texas playing Ole Miss.

    Agreed

    IDK when beating Ole Miss became a big deal. Joey Freshwater has a bird's nest on the ground there. He can keep his job going 8-4 or 9-3 every year playing a dogshit OOC sked.

    Shut up about thread titles, the real problem is the stupid fucking Texas! Fight! thread every Friday before games. We haven't won shit since that started on whatever board it was at the time. So corny and has brought nothing but bad juju.

    It's like the wave for Longhorn internet message boards. We almost won this week because South Austin couldn't start it but then troph screwed everything up.

    TEXAS !!!

    If Livingstone's right arm was not knocked down and then pinned during the attempted catch, I believe he would have reeled it in. I've posted on this a couple of times. It happens so quickly in real time, that I don't really fault the official for not catching it, but on the replay from the endzone view, it's clear as day. 

    Yeah, that technically may have been DPI by rule.

    In real time at game speed, very few flank officials will see it or call it when it's bang-bang like that. The BJ had no view of it, so the call would have to come from the sideline officials. DB just made good play on the ball.

    But Liberty is the Flames? What is going on with this. 

    Auburn is the Tigers, too. I guess Liberty thought they needed an eagle mascot for the children.

    The Tigers of Texas Southern University are checking in.

    I forgot about them, and I'm from Houston. Kinda embarrassing, I guess? I also forgot El Paso's nickname is "Sun City".

    I'm on a roll today...furk

    ...in Texas when there are so many better options, like P Terry’s or Mighty Fine. 

    We don't have either in DFW. I do like the small Burger Boy chain in San Antonio better, though.
