  1. To be clear, I’m not saying I think Georgia should get a spot if they lose. The “shoulds” don’t matter because the committee doesn’t have a transparent process and can do whatever the fuck they want with 4-7 teams on Sunday and don’t have to answer to anyone. The SEC bias is real and I don’t know why anyone would consider the committee immune to it. Trying to think of whether I can remember another potential threepeat scenario that was milked dry for ratings ahead of a national championship game…
  2. Also, the reactions along the lines of “Why would anyone think this has anything to do with Texas?! It obviously doesn’t.” are not exactly shining displays of intellectual prowess.
  3. Not nearly as many as there will be once it opens. I wouldn’t bitch about the dearth of options available until the portal is actually open, but I’m not another lawyer.
  4. The portal hasn’t even officially opened yet genius. Only grad transfers thus far.
  5. How many of those previous scenarios involved a 2-time defending national champion from God’s gift to football conferences?
  6. I understand the rationale from Texas fans saying that we could/should go over a 1-loss Bama SEC champ, but you’d have to completely disregard the SEC bias of the last 10-15 years and there’s just no chance the committee does that. There would be a lot of commentary on Texas getting a raw deal, but it wouldn’t change anything. There is no chance the SEC champ misses the playoffs this year. There’s a better chance that Georgia goes instead of Texas even if Georgia loses than Texas going over Bama if Bama wins. The SEC bias is the strongest influence in CFB.
  7. Can we rename this The Derka Ewers thread and start another one?
  8. Get the fuck out of here. You are the king of self-victimization and you have subjected countless people to displays of you flailing around in hysterics across multiple boards over more than a decade. Don’t get all fucking self-righteous now.
  9. You are so winning this thread dude. Keep up the fantastic work and go take a look in the mirror and tell yourself “you got this bro, the world needs you to plant this flag”. We’re all better off for your contributions here. He’s not the best QB we’ve ever had and he certainly could’ve had a better season. He’s also made some great plays and had some gutty performances on the way to an 11-1 season and is going to get drafted and have a chance to play in the NFL whether it’s after this season or next. Maybe just relax and let people hype up their qb if they want. Or be a threadshitter admonishing everyone and acting like you’re a superior fan for pointing out and harping on our players’ flaws while we’re having our best season in 14 years, whatever. I guess you must get something out of it to keep doing it.
  10. Christian Jones probably gets drafted Collins probably leaves and gets drafted Watts might Keilan Robinson and Jerrin Thompson might get UDFA looks
  11. You can only win what your opponent has. If we went against aggy and said if we win, we're taking all of their dignity and all of their hot female cheerleaders, then after we destroy them, we'd still get nothing because they don't have either of those. We can't take what they don't even own. We beat five teams that didn't have any land by the time we beat them. We got nothing. That can change this week, as tceh comes in with something to take. Thanks for taking the time to explain exactly how and why it’s dumb
  12. If we’ve won five games in a row and still have no territory on the map it seems kinda dumb to me, but to each their own
  13. Imagine looking at the list of NFL QBs who have started this year and thinking Ewers has no chance to play in the NFL. Great take.
  14. How many days before they settle in on the narrative of something like this? “Actually, paying more money than anyone else evarr to get rid of a terrible coaching hire is a major flex and shows the world we really mean business. It definitely isn’t embarrassing. Those pussy ass sips would never have the balls to pull a power move like this! Whoop!”
  15. At this rate I’d almost expect Smith to only give Bijan low-success rate touches just to say “SEE?! I was right to not use him!”
  16. Y’all don’t remember the 80s era NFL clear bag policy?
  17. Really hard to get much of a pass rush when Big 12 officials have endorsed egregious holding by our opponents on every play by not calling any holds. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if our pass rush is instantly much more effective next year in a new conference.
