  1. It depends on how "important" the game is. Networks make those decisions week-to-week. If Tech is bad and Texas already has a spot in the CCG locked up, the game will probably not be on the primetime slate. All that being said, the game will probably be at 11:00 AM. For reference: 2022 Baylor was at 11:00 AM 2021 KSU was at 11:00 AM 2020 ISU was at 11:00 AM 2019 Tech was at 11:00 AM
  2. For a frame of reference, we only had 383 yards of offense against ULM last season.
  3. We quite literally did. 458 yards of offense. Just didn't look as pretty as we would like.
  4. My sincere hope is that this game lights a fire under some asses. It should definitely be a wakeup call to several players and even one entire position group. I don't know, maybe that's one of the benefits of running a vanilla offense and playing with a hand tied behind our back. Shows the players that they can't get complacent.
  5. I think Ewers is a good QB and that Sark is a good coach. The problem is that Ewers can't throw a deep ball and Sark can't stop calling for deep balls. Just stop chasing the fucking dragon and call plays that work.
  6. Gerry said he's going to put in an RPM as well. Sounds like a done deal.
  7. He was actually a weed dealer who did a little carpentry on the side.
  8. Completely valid reason to bump this thread. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
  9. I don't have a dog in this fight. We lost the guy for whatever reasons, doesn't change much for me. He gone. But am I wrong when I point out that there are a lot of bought players on that list? It doesn't mean the coach can't recruit, and it doesn't mean McKinley is chasing bags. But that doesn't mean I have to ignore the data point.
  10. I would feel worse about this if we didn't already have D'antre Robinson and Alex January in the boat. Obviously it would be better to have McKinley as well, but those two players represent a solid DL haul, with Hills as a development piece. I'd still like to pull in one more guy if McKinley isn't going to Texas in light of how many guys we probably lose after this season. Are there any other DL that we're seriously pursuing, or are those three the HS class for 2024 and we'll see who hops in the portal?
  11. I should neg every one of you assholes for bumping this post with superfluous bullshit. Myself too, while I'm at it. Why is there no way to comment in a thread without bumping it? If Something Awful could figure it out 15 years ago I'm sure we could do something here.
  12. I know you know this, but those recruitments are the most vicious and heated recruitments out of any. Everybody needs them, especially teams with high aspirations, and there's not enough of them to go around. My burnt orange brain assumes that we'll fight dirty, but not quite as dirty as everyone else. That we'll focus on our NIL, rather than bags, and talking up our program, rather than tearing down other programs. I'm sure we negative recruit, I just don't think we do it to the degree necessary. I'm probably being naïve, but that seems to be Sark's style and the style he wants his staff to adopt. I'm sure Coach Bo knows what buttons to push, he's been doing this long enough, but the strategy is being set by Sark. With this McKinley specifically, I'm wondering if LSU, Texas, and OU didn't knock each other out of it. A&M wasn't really on the radar, and maybe the front runners tore each other down to the point that it gave A&M a chance to slide back in late. I obviously don't have any inside information, but they may have been able to play up the church angle because no one thought enough of their chances to point out all the moral failings of that program.
  13. We caught Bama sleeping last year. They didn't expect us to hit them in the mouth. We won't get the drop on them again. That said, I think are fundamentally better as a football team this season and they are fundamentally worse. I don't think we need to catch them sleeping to win.
  14. I hear what you're saying and I understand it. But I also don't like it, so I'm going to disregard it and complain about Aggie dropping bags again.
  15. First of all, I resent your implication that Wagon Wheel is a chick song. Second, we should 100% us that one. It's old enough now that it's a classic, it's perfect for sing alongs, and it will really piss off all the hill people in the SEC who think they own it. I can't think of another team who uses it right now. Third, my personal vote was for Tyler by The Toadies, but I can't imagine the school would actually use it...because of the implications
  16. Mister, if you don't shut up I'm going to kick 100% of your ass
