  1. This is incredible. Damn it. That was too.
  2. The average person on the internet is a complete fucking retard. this site is the easily the smartest free message board community I’ve ever seen, and yet at least 10% of what’s posted on here at any time is so stupid that it burns.
  3. I didn't take it that way at all. I'm just saying that you don't worry about anything other than us playing well. If we play at our best we are the best team in the country, and I don't think, maybe outside of Ohio State playing at their apex, that anyone else is particularly close. Play a poor game and you could obviously lose to 10 or 20 different teams.
  4. No way dude. We have a higher ceiling. We have more talent. Both teams play to their capability Texas wins 7-10 point game in Austin. Quinn is better, our OL is better, our WR's are better, our TE is better. They are better at TB. They are better at specialist (I think). Front 7 is probably pretty close to a push. We are lots better in the secondary. We are better on the headsets. I'm not saying they are untalented- I'm just saying that the guys they have are not as talented as the guys we have- some of it is they've got some pretty injured dudes. But yeah- best v best bet on Texas. I bet if you were talking the 44 starters and turning that into 1 team Texas would have 15 or 16 of the 22.
  5. Fair enough. I too am somewhat surprised by our fans lack of super cowardly behavior. Maybe we've turned a corner as a fan base.
  6. Brett Beilma is a fat fucking retard would beg to differ.
  7. When your website makes it onto a national platform with a quote that on the nose you have to use it for at least a little bit, right?
  8. If I was benevolent dictator for a day that would be my command. I'm perfectly fine with a mock "sec sec sec" chant whenever we go into someone elses house and give them a dirty sanchez.
  9. Completely untrue. No more than 30% overall and 70% on the Astros.
  10. This is my 3rd to make it up there in the last year or so of writing the game week kickoff posts. It feels wonderful. The fact that these dolts are incapable of appreciating this for what it is and the context behind it makes it even more wonderful. I made it on there for predicting we were going to pants Alabraska last year at their place and also- I believe I had a pretty foul rant against the Red Raiders.
  11. People read my post on message board geniuses and bowed to the inherent logic of it all. Bet now, after @closetojumpingdrops his mudhole post the line will move past a TD.
  12. Meyers was something like 11 Outs above average in 75% of playing time- which is a counting stat. If he's not the best defensive CF in the game he's really close. Bregman seems like he should be a gold glover at some point in time in his career. I don't know if that's true or not, but I feel like I'd like to see it. Yeah- I miss that IF big time. Was such a fun run.
  13. Never saw the inside of a UT classroom or national Merit scholar on full academic ride. One or the other. the fact that that confederacy of dunces is lined up against me just shows I am directly over the target.
  14. So, I was almost put on message board geniuses for the 3rd time but aggy was too dumb to get it right on the link, is that what happened? This is Jacks complete lack of surprise face. too bad- my anti SEC mocking post should be required reading for all the dipshits and morons south of the Mason Dixon line, and Mizzou too I suppose.
  15. No. And read my thread on page 2 of the Georgia gameweek thread to see how I feel about this conference. No kool-aid at all. But, if you don't get that power imbalances between the leagues, and power imbalances inside the leagues in the schedules teams play in an era of 16 team conferences don't make comparing # of losses a dumb proposition as a stand alone I don't know what to tell you. Miami will likely end the year having played 0 ranked teams. Georgia will likely end the year having played 5 top 15 teams, only 1 of them at home. Who the fuck cares if Miami is 12-0 and Georgia is 10-2 in any rational seeding world? Texas, however, has a pretty shitty schedule even though we are SEC SEC SEC and scheduled Michigan. But it's miles better than Miami's. Oregon has a pretty tough schedule. Florida's is absurd. Texas Tech plays 1 ranked team.
  16. Why? with imbalances in conference schedule you could have a 1 loss acc or big 12 team that plays like two top 25 teams all year and an SEC or big 10 team that plays like 7 ranked teams. You telling me you value 11-1 from the first over 10-2 or 9-3 in the second? Why? It makes no empirical sense. If you want to turn it all over to the computers I'm fine with that. Put a 35 point MOV cap on the model- make every team play all their games against D1 - bowl division if they are still calling it that and let them tell you who the best teams are, if you really want to go with some sort of "fairness" test.
  17. You are correct- thanks! Somehow I missed the fact that his total was perfect... @gernblanstenit is you are the winner. @Rudy Rutabagabetter luck next time.
  18. That was really good. I was pretty sure you were going to win, and then I saw the actual winner and was like- damn
  19. @TheAuditorwith an amazeball performance. Nails the spread exactly and misses the total by 1 yard for each team. Congrats to him for winning the prop contest.
  20. All the props within 10 yards- good job
  21. These were the closest to getting the difference in score right between the teams- either nailed the 31 point or missed it by 1. Remember- scoring is 2 points for every number off the spread and one for ever number off the total. @WBTgets the shout out for having the lowest (real) OU score prediction I think with 6. I think @Rudy Rutabagais the winner at 14 points -maybe highest total of the year? If I missed one lower let me know. Running yardage prop next.
  22. Never heard of spoon. 46 year old white guy.
  23. What happened with Kern? He hurt? Or just get beat out?
