  1. Yeah the council, mayor, school board are all supposed to be non-partisan even though they absolutely are...some dangerously fringe. You need to research those most of all...and of course there is the least amount out there to help you.
  2. One of the things that bothers me about the Georgia game is I think we could have pulled it out if we had recognized that this was going to be a defensive struggle and settled down to run the ball and play conservative on offense and played for field position. Sometimes you are just going to be in games like that. And we seemed unable to do that. That is concerning, we need to be able to adapt when the other team is able to dictate a different sort of game. But then our kicking game clearly sucks so that might have influenced not doing that. But I really think our defense might have won that game if we had just cooled it and been satisfied to grind out first downs and not be afraid to punt if necessary. And maybe even kick field goals. But I don't think Vandy will put us in that position. But somebody else might, especially in the post season.
  3. I think our defense is too good for that, unless we are allowing short fields the whole game again.
  4. I guess but Ewers has been getting punched in the mouth for three years now. He has to be able to handle it a bit better by this point. Anyway Ewers is the starter. We will ride or die with him. So he has to step it up.
  5. I mean I have seen our fanbase do that and worse in the past. You most certainly remember those days. Were you ritually whipping yourself back then? I was at the game where our fans threw garbage on the field at the 1995 Sugar Bowl for no reason at all besides our team was playing bad. I was there at the Stanford game in 1999 when our fans booed the marching band and I was there in 1992 when our fans booed our own offense for sucking against Baylor. And those are just incidents I witnessed in person. I was a little surprised this version of the UT crowd did this. We have been a very politically correct crowd for years. Anyway don't worry. UT has no sense of humor for this kind of thing. I am sure a bunch of new policies will be wheeled out.
  6. They can win every game if we give them a chance. Can't give the other team short fields.
  7. I hate Vanderbilt for what happened in 1928. But the age of silent movies and prohibition are over Vandy! It is our time to dominate. My great-grandfather, who never even went to college and as far as I know was only a baseball fan, will nonetheless be avenged. He was alive and in the area at the time.
  8. GAMES DO NOT END IN THE THIRD QUARTER
  9. Yeah. It was to a shitty OU team. And this was a totally normal way to lose. They controlled the LOS and beat us by a normal score. I have seen being buttfucked to Bolivia and this was not it.
  10. I hope that water you threw on the field didn't set you back too much.
  11. Yeah well in today's NFL QBs who should be 2nd day picks get drafted in the first round all the time. Teams are just so desperate to find the Chosen One.
  12. I know! We went from a crowd that would boo our own band and throw things and leave at half time if the game wasn't within two scores to a bunch that cheered all game and sang "don't stop believing" and all that. I thought we had become some kind of Disneyland crowd. Glad that bitter angry poor sportsmanship was still in there. That's the UT crowd I fell in love with.
  13. To be fair to the Cope Cloak Room, there really is no good place to discuss American politics anymore on or offline. But we should hold football discussion to a higher standard of decorum. That's stuff that really matters.
  14. That temper tantrum the fans did was a real throwback. That was the kind of thing I totally would have expected our crowd to do 30 years ago. Wild we still have it in us. We haven't been that kind of fanbase in a while.
  15. Our kicking game is not good this year. That sucks because that is often the difference in big games.
  16. It is always the risk you take when you go to a sporting event. No guarantee of a good show.
  17. Fitting way for it to end. Ah well. Get em next time.
  18. Yep. We just have to hope we learn something from this.
  19. Well good for the fucking real teams.
  20. Yeah well fuck the SEC. I hate it here. But money and bullshit forced us to be here. And fuck you to.
  21. Again man go ahead and bet thousands of dollars we don't make the playoffs since you already know. You can laugh at us all on the way to the bank.
  22. Damnit. Not Wingo's fault. Goddamnit. That was our last realistic chance.
