  1. Absolute GOAT guard. RIP Larry.
  2. The LSU guys have been really making a ton of assumptions in Brown's recruitment. He very well may flip, but doing that flip pick coming out of his OV weekend when he still has 3 OVs to go including TX is a bit premature. Bo Davis at LSU =/= Bo Davis at Texas.
  3. I have always been partial to App State and Air Force football fields. The smaller venues really show off the landscape in a number of places:
  4. Stanford is the gold standard for everything that doesnt matter in the new world of college athletics. They have a million non revenue sports that they are competitive in, meanwhile they have 5,000 people at their football games, rarely make the NCAA tourney in basketball, and are marginal competitors in baseball. Their biggest bargaining chip is academic prestige, which might as well be confederate dollars in this age.
  5. What the hall am I looking at? Had it not been for the Texas flag in the background I would have thought this was some throwback German ww2 rally.
  6. They didnt do any actual facial capture or real renderings due to the logistics of trying to do it for thousands of people. Im not too broken up about the player models, they look good on the field.
  7. In fairness he was raining 1s and not 100s.
  8. Total stupidity. Private equity getting involved is a fools errand for both parties. For PE, they are not dealing with rational organizations in terms of business sense and ROI and expenses. They are dealing with career academics and government officials who care about stupid shit like being associated with Stanford even though they bring literally nothing to the table in this context. For institutions, it would be oil and water in terms of some asswipe new york scalper coming in and propping his feet up on your desk and telling you that you report to him now. Im looking at you Vista, you chop shop shitbags.
  9. That UNLV vs KU game might be interesting if Brennan Marion gets that go-go clicking.
  10. He is that old retired guy with a broken down army jeep on his front lawn and land mines in the woods surrounding his house.
  11. This dude is going to be a beast. I imagine him being a far more explosive Barryn Sorrell. Bobby and Gerry said instead of him growing into a run plugging 5 tech, he is more like a twitchy DE with plus size.
  12. I can't wait to hear the howling over their offensive and defensive ratings in College Football 25... More sip conspiracy!!
  13. Maybe they should have sent in a current rendering to EA...
  14. OK, so there are some badass features in this game: CampusIQ seems like it is going to actually force you to do more game management, which is a good thing instead of spamming hail mary to Xavier Worthy every play. The defensive switch stick that lets you switch defenders in the secondary looks really interesting. The route tree and custom stem lengths at the line of scrimmage are going to be sweet. The ability for defenses to disguise coverages is also going to be pretty awesome. 1500 new plays, 50 different formations, and 134 team playbooks and ability to make custom playbooks.. fuck. yes. Pistol, Veer & Shoot, Power Spread, etc. etc. etc. etc. AI makes adjustments in game like shades, bump and run, double teams, disguise coverage, etc. Love the animations, 400 new ones added. The one with Ollie Gordon doing the stutter step looks awesome. Real weather impacts on cutting ability, passing accuracy, tackling, etc. Enhanced play action effects in certain situations.
  15. Missouri is the only state in the country where it's cities are actively trying to relocate.
  16. If this doesn't end up on MBG, then they are seriously slipping.
  17. How long do you think it took the SEC league offices to realize that A&M incessantly bitches about anything they can get their little hayseed minds around? Particularly when it has to do with Texas.
  18. WTF is a Lindenwood?
  19. I just want to see a giant sunflower seeds patch on the aggy jersey.
  20. I think they will be better than that, he actually made some decent defensive hires in the offseason so I would imagine a decent jump on the defensive side of the ball. It wouldn't surprise me to see them only lose 2 or 3 games.
  21. So they are celebrating a national championship in women's tennis with a win over *checks notes* Georgia, by singing a song about Texas. And the song even has a huge plot hole: Saw varsity's horns off (X100) Varsity's horns are sawed off (X100) How did this happen? Where did it happen? When did it happen? Who did it? and most importantly...
  22. Oh it will be there, they just havent talked about it.
  23. They were saying the game plays faster because of the wide open offenses and the difference in speed/ability between star players and lower tier guys. I heard someone say it would be more chunk plays instead of plodding down the field like Madden all the time since players are more equally matched athletically in the NFL. An example would be Jalen Milroe versus Tennessee Chattanooga. It will be easier for him to get outside the tackles and scramble, and it will be harder to get him down once he gets there for their defense.
