  1. They did. But at least right now, a major talking point in CFB media is resume stacking and big wins. I’ve listened to two separate podcasts from today where they went down the list of SEC contenders and repeatedly mention Texas having no big wins or even ranked wins on its resume, and talk about the A&M/Texas loser being out of the CFP. Number of losses and quality wins are the dominant factors, at least as far as media discussion. Who you lost to is not the top consideration. I’ll also add that our laying an egg against Georgia is also brought up a lot. Had that game appeared more competitive (even though I think it WAS more competitive than it seemed), I don’t think we’d be catching as much skepticism. Fortunately the media does not determine the rankings, the committee does, and they’ve ranked us favorably so far. But being a beauty contest with Ole Miss and Tennessee for the final at-large spot could be problematic for us.
  2. A couple #2 votes, mostly #3, a handful at #4, then some outliers at #5, 6, and 8. https://collegepolltracker.com/football/team/texas-longhorns/2024 https://collegepolltracker.com/football/distribution/2024/week-13
  3. Sure it’s possible, and would love to be wrong but Auburn is absolute garbage. Aggy is at least semi-decent
  4. Looking like the game in College Station is gonna have both an SEC CG and playoff berth on the line…winner gets in, loser is out. Hold me. Will be there at the top of the fucking stadium where I saw Tucker’s kick fly in.
  5. Tennessee hasn’t done shit this half
  6. Come on Wiscy, they’ve given you a golden opportunity
  7. Kirk pronounces escape as “eck-scape”
  8. Fuck off Fowler. We don’t look elite but Oregon is tied with Wisconsin
  9. Badger D shows up. Can the offense pull something out of the hat?
  10. OK kirk, let’s just put Georgia in even if they lose this game
  11. Wish we had that guy as our punter
  12. Because as long a we win out, we’re in Atlanta. If we lose one of our next two, I don’t think any of the SEC tiebreakers are gonna go our way. And in that case, Georgia being out the playoff picture would be better for us
  13. Won’t be allowed for playoff first round games on campus, so there’s that.
  14. Love calling these primetime games 6:30 kicks but they don’t start until after 6:50
  15. Nice drive from the cocks to go back in front
  16. Except when it comes to mentioning how Texas played against Georgia.
  17. Didn’t think LSU got that playoff before the clock hit 2:00
  18. They’re not gonna kick this. It’s not a gimme so might as well go for the 1st
