  1. Not gonna play your stupid games. The whole point of going from 4 teams to 12+ is get the "best" teams in, not to add playoff opportunities for smaller programs in weaker conferences who get to 10 or 11 wins. The committee will tweak the playoff format ASAP to avoid this situation. Because if Texas and other bluebloods decide to stop scheduling these big OOC games, it is very bad for the sport.
  2. Can you tell me how long we've had a 12 team playoff in Div 1 college football?
  3. The argument for Texas to get in is compelling, and the playoff committee should get a lot of shit for ending up just picking teams by W/L record. They are not going to follow the criteria they added to put a team like Texas in. Personally, I don't think we deserve it but understand why fans are pissed. Part of me feels like Sark needs to learn a lesson from how he handled this season. It was a disaster, and a playoff bid might give him an excuse to run it back with same bullshit. I also hope CDC doesn't overreact and get rid of our future big OOC games. My guess is they move to 16 teams next year to makes sure a 3 loss blueblood makes it in going forward.
  4. I love you all. Fuck aggy. Enjoy the night and weekend.
  5. I'm still trying to figure it out. The first tweet is displaying the recent upgrade with photorealistic AI. The second one I just saw the reply and it looks like they "created" a AI picture based off a real photo of a real woman.
  6. We're fucked.
  7. I know Fleet Foxes are a bit of a niche band, but goddamn this full concert is great. The drummer from The Walkmen was playing for them on this tour. Robin Pecknold's voice in top form here. Pitchfork productions always have great sound engineering/mix.
  8. Airbag - Radiohead (OK Computer) I Am Trying To Break Your Heart - Wilco (Yankee Hotel Foxtrot) Held - Spoon (Lucifer on the Sofa) To Be Young - Ryan Adams (Heartbreaker) Cherub Rock - Smashing Pumpkins (Siamese Dream) Do I Wanna Know? - Arctic Monkeys (AM)
  9. Fucking sports media just can't stop bringing up Trump in these interviews. STOP
  10. Gonna be interesting to see how Ime tweaks the rotations when KD gets back. I think you return to Reed coming off the bench and leading the 2nd team offense around the 4 minute mark of 1st quarter. He's gotta play 25+ minutes a game when he's on. Not sure how you keep him off the court in crunch time as well. Sengun/KD/Jabari/Amen/Reed to close out games. His handle has improved tremendously (confidence is a beautiful thing) and his skip passes have become a big weapon. Goddamn this is exciting.
  11. We've even got HOF Porn Stars on the Reed train. The vibes are immaculate.
  12. We knew Reed could shoot 3s. Now we see him hitting KD-esque jumpers at the top of the paint, he has excellent court vision and can find the open man, and his handle has gotten much stronger. Sengun, Amen, and Reed are your long term pieces. This team fucks. LFG.
  13. HUGE FUCKING WIN REED IS FOR REAL LFG
  14. Pretty sure FVV said "He's a freak" when the camera cut to him after a sick Amen bucket.
  15. We'll see what happens on the field Saturday, but his off the field commentary about how Arch has handled this season is spot on. This is the worst O-line I can remember at Texas. This is the worst running game I can remember at Texas. Arch has been getting killed by defenders in the backfield all season. Concussed and bloodied. He owns his mistakes and shitty play. He never places blame anywhere else. The nasty criticism, the memes, the jokes...he took it all in stride. For arguably the most nationally hyped player ever at Texas, it feels like our fanbase has kept their distance from him in some ways. This dude has handled his first 3 years at Texas with a maturity and grace that is incredibly impressive. He deserves better from us IMO.
  16. Meh. The defender reacted slowly to the ball because the play was off schedule. I’m good with being aggressive there with the defense on their heels.
  17. List of great Aggies that deserve our respect: 1. Meat Pimp 2. Meat Pimp's mom That's it.
  18. I know he's a great dude and Sark and the team loves him, but enough. He's just not ready this year.
  19. The All-22 film angles...whew.
  20. Honestly, the one negative of joining the SEC for me was playing A&M again. I grew up with Aggie friends in high school, went to a bonfire and game at Kyle Field. But I don't think there's anything fun or interesting about this rivalry. I fucking hate OU, but have respect for their program and success. The A&M game almost feels like a lose-lose scenario in my eyes. I tried to get pumped for the game last year at Kyle. All the hype, all the fanfare. And then the Aggies laid the most pathetic egg I've ever seen on a football field. If you would have told me before the game we win by 10, I would have happily taken it. But they were so fucking pathetic, only winning that game 17-7 was a disappointment. That should have been a 31-0 type of embarrassment. I don't really take that much enjoyment out of beating A&M, because I have so little respect for their entire existence.
