I turned it off in the 1st half…so yeah I guess so

One of the most boring “big” games ever. I can’t imagine ratings were great.

Who have they played?

This will look bitchin’ on our burnt orange unis next year

Every time this thread gets bumped I’m hopeful, then disappointed.

Smells like aggy in here

Our weakness continues to be OL play. Been that way since 2005 (and 2006). Hard to win a championship that way.

Texas 24 Clemson 19 Clemson Total Offense- 277 yards

Kings of Tupelo was fantastic. Crazy fuckin’ story man- I think it goes even deeper like they were alluding to near the end.

Totally agree with your point on the way it affects your life vs. quantity. Everyone has their own story and mine began as a seemingly innocuous social, but fairly heavy drinker in my 20s after I got a job in Houston post-grad UT. Never was much of a drinker before/during my time in Austin, but work happy hours, boozy dinners out with ex-wife and friends, etc. really seemed to "normalize" using alcohol to relieve stress after work. It's pretty much ingrained into the culture in the young professional world- especially inside the loop in Houston. Although I knew I drank too often, it was never much of an issue with my job or any other responsibilities and I was able to get away with it for a few years. Fast forward a couple of years down the road, and though I wasn't drinking as often as before- somewhere down the line I crossed that irreversible threshold from moderate/heavy drinker to alcoholic. When I would drink "only on the weekends" I was drinking to blackout "en bloc"-style pretty much every single time I picked up one single drink, no matter what my intentions were that night. Once I started, I absolutely had no power to stop even though I knew I was heading for a disastrous night. I woke up countless times full of regret and shame after being told the abhorrent things I said and did the night before- but of course then I'd go do the same thing the very next weekend. I even went short-term cold turkey a few times thinking I was in control and I could "drink like a gentleman." Alcohol laughed at my ignorance and the blackout episodes would rear their ugly head very soon after I picked up a drink again. Rinse and repeat ad nauseum for the next 5 years, until I finally admitted that yes, indeed I do have a disease/allergy and am completely and utterly powerless over alcohol.
