Texas Football Season 2026 - A Sarkisian On the Brink
I posted in the OU thread about some of the Dallas sports radio guys' takes on OU (terrible). It's always interesting to hear what the the relatively unknowledgeable think about various teams. With respect to Texas, there is one egghead at the station, Bob Sturm, who professes to watch tape, disect schemes, etc. Whether he is legit or not is debatable. He certainly throws around the terms and geeked out with Daryl Johnston last week on the radio. He did say something interesting. In viewing tape of Texas over the last few years, he feels Sark's scheme is outstanding, really really good. And this year believes the receiving core is probably the best in the Sark era. However, he said that it was obvious that almost every year the last few years the offensive line play was the ultimate limitation (surprise!). Damn, I hope the OL is better this year.

Oklahoma Football 2026 - This TransAm Is Running Hot
The Dallas sports radio BlowU homer yesterday tried to claim that the OU football program structure led by Nagy was voted by peer schools as the best front office and structure in the country. That has to be the biggest crock of shit I’ve ever heard in my life. There is a reason 200+ other football programs haven’t gone to that model, and there’s no way Nagy is respected. OU fans are living in an alternate universe. .

All of this data about the OL actually being rated highly does not fit at all with my preconceived notions. As a result I must find a way to discredit all of this data so that I can continue to be miserable about what I perceive to be the team’s main weakness.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
I just don’t understand why she’s wearing a dress that says “Ax the Grinch”. What did he do to tick her off so much.

Every time I see her name, for just a second, “She was great in the Go-Go’s”.

Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran.
There is simply still too much thinking about big boats, expensive planes and other massive war tools. The wars of the 21st century will be won online and with micro/nano attacks anywhere and everywhere, which is impossible to defend. If this conflict with Iran continues much longer, Americans are about to FAFO about what 21st century warfare really looks like. And this isn’t my opinion. This is straight from military studies. They know it’s coming. They just can’t turn the “battleship” because of all the corruption in defense contracts, plus the personal agendas of rising military leaders.

I don’t buy their predictions. I think they lose to Texas, beat Iowa, beat USC, and lose to Oregon. Two losses.

LSU in trouble?
I may be interpreting it wrong, but the key difference in the Big 10 rule is that the head coach penalty of 50% suspension ensures that even if a court injunction occurs to allow the player to play, the big 10 coaches won’t move forward with bringing them back because they will lose 50% of their comp and games.

LSU in trouble?
Didn't the Big 10 handle the whole situation better by avoiding court by simply fining coaches who played players returning from the NFL.

If the Muschamp defense does actually deliver significant improvements, which I believe it will, the offense will benefit with more possessions. There were times over the past few years where the offense would get stuck in the mud, compounded by fewer possessions. A quarter would just fly by. Maybe that’s one of the reasons Sark is more confident.

12-0. National championship. We beat Oregon in the final in the second best national championship game ever with a Manning to Bishop pass with seconds left. Manning wins the Heisman.

I Wasn’t able to watch USC because of the golf tournament, but did USC take off the gas on defense late? A Patterson defense should have been better.
