We always get some kind of ethnic take-out on Christmas Eve. This year, it's Japanese. Wife and daughters will have sushi and I'll have tempura and some kind of teriyaki meat.
I'm damn near 60 and I'll take on all of you Urban-doubting bitches as long as I can call time out if my back gets out of whack or I need to catch my breath. Oh, and can I start with a Bowie knife?
Nobody cares about Tom Herman optics and if they do, it won't last long. What about the optics of losing to the thieves and cockroaches while having a recruiting class that falls between Tennessee/Wisconsin and Ole Miss/Maryland? In recruiting, we are closer to Arkansas than North fucking Carolina. We are closer to Boston College than the fucking Sooners. How about that for optics? When multiple captains quit on your team, what are the optics? When you get drunk flying around on big cigar personal jets while your wife tries to wreck the plane is that an optic we should be concerned about? What about the optics when Herman can't fire a WR coach who is actively undermining him and setting the WR room on fire? Did you enjoy the optics of our OL missing stunts all year? Fuck optics. Bring me someone who can fully weaponize the University of Texas. Bring me Urban or die trying.
Just let Alabama, Clemson, and Ohio State play a double-loss round robin. There's no other fourth team that stands a chance and you'd just be giving Alabama a freebie while the other two beat each other up.
