  1. Glad CTJ gave you time off from grabbing him a coffee to come up with that original thought.
  2. Not saying he didnt, but this isnt a good OSU team. OSU has no business being in the Big 12 Championship game with their overall talent. Texas should be there, so I have 0 issues that Gundy got it over Sark.
  3. He did a great job.. It helps to come into the season with absolute dogshit and then coach them to the Championship game.
  4. I definitely think Barron should be 1st team, but Nickel is always discounted. Jones deserved to be on a team, but overall the list is far more reasonable to Texas players than I expected
  5. I would not bet on that. Coaches are doing their job and pointing out that a starter is leaving and a spot is open. I am not convinced that Brooks (Field) and Muhammad (Boundary) will stay at their specific positions. Black is a big bodied CB, that is either a boundary or will slide inside. Wilson, Mack, and Black will likely all start at CB, but it is highly unlikely they all stay there. There is no reason to get get caught up about specific positions now. I would love for Texas to get back to the days of Akina, when the safeties had CB skills..
  6. Am going A. Option A probably means Texas wins the Big 12 and at least makes the Championship game..
  7. It would be great, if Texas started to collect the type of talent to be able move someone like Kobe Black inside. Given his size and athleticism, Nickel seems a like a great fit.. Either way it doesnt matter, you get a kid like that on campus and let his body figure out where he is going to end up.

    Thanks Cam Williams putting up stellar grades
  9. You dont need faith. This shit is simple. Texas has 0% chance of getting in over an undefeated Georgia.. We can argue over the odds of Texas vs Baama for the last spot, but Bama doesnt have a 100% chance to get in over Texas... Texas has 0% chance to get in over undefeated teams. Texas has somewhere between a 1%-99% chance to get in over a 1 loss team. Even if you think it is a 1% chance, that is still greater than 0%
  10. Lville win is the best chacne for Texas to get in, but not the only Lets look a this logically: 1. Michigan vs Iowa.... Michigan wins the are a stone cold lock to get in.. Iowa loss opens up a slot in the playoffs. In that scenario, Texas has a better chance to make the playoffs with a Iowa win (highly unlikely).. So rooting for Michigan would be counterproductive to increasing Texas's chance of making the playoffs 2. UGa vs Bama. UGa is a lock. 100% certainty they get in over Texas.. Texas has head to head over Bama, so a Bama win helps the Texas resume... You can believe that Bama gets in over Texas, but not with 100% certainty. Root for Bama 3. Wash vs Oregon.. This is the same.. Washington is a 100% lock to get in over Texas with a win. Oregon maybe 95% chance to get in over Texas, but it is not 100% like Washington.. Root for Oregon 4.. WE all agree on Lville vs FSU
  11. Texas is out of the top 4 currently, so they need spots to open up. Texas fans should root against every undefeated team, because there is 0 argument for Texas to get in over a undefeated team (maybe with FSU, snowballs chance in hell type o thing).. Rooting for Michigan and Washington does not help.. Texas fans need to root for Iowa, Oregon, and Bama. Chaos is a friend of Texas
  12. We disagree here, because now the committee is in a bind.. Usually a committee will take the path of least resistance. In that case the committee could come out and talk about SOS, which would heavily favor Bama and Texas. If the committee puts in Oregon in this scenario, they have to decide between Texas and Bama. Putting Bama in over Texas and ignoring a head to head (on the road) would be one of the most controversial decisions ever. Leaving the SEC out, would be unprecedented. The least controversial would be to say "screw it, lets go with resume and leave Oregon out"
  13. Committee chair only talked about Bo Nix and his 78% completion, when confronted with Texas having a better resume (better win, SOS, and same opponent performance), only to say FSU is more the than their QB 2 minutes later. Hard to say WTF they are looking at
  14. I think Oregon's greatest risk of missing the playoffs is in the 2 spots for 3 teams. That is where Bama/SEC and Head/head comes to play.. Texas needs Bama to win, to have any chance of passing Oregon.
  15. Iowa 1st half pts is even money at 0.5 pts, so I dont have much faith in Iowa winning
  16. that is true.. It is harder for Texas to just straight out jump Oregon for 1 spot. I think the playoff committee rankings reflect what they think/hope will happen. A Bama win would certainly increase the Texas resume. I know the committee has not followed resume to date, but they are now starting to get heat about that from various spots.. Texas needs to win. An impressive win would also seriously help. Back to Back 50 pt wins would put the committee in a bind. We shall see how it plays out
  17. Vegas is a collection of models and dudes named Vinny,. the others are using just their model to calculate playoff chances.
  18. The only chance that Texas jumps Oregon is in the 2 spots for 3 teams scenario.. Bama wins, Texas, Michigan Wins, and FSU wins. Now the committee is screwed. Leave out the SEC champ? Put Bama in, but ignore Head to Head and leave Texas out? I think they put Texas and Bama in over Oregon in that scenario, but that is a guess.
  19. I saw Louisville moneyline is +115.. There is some vig in that, so call it 45% chance to win the game.
  20. Very interested in seeing the grades on teh 2nd team OL. They looked really good based on the initial viewing.
