  1. Holy under...Vegas would have had my money.
  2. Looks like a very missable noon lineup. Glad I took the kids to the park.
  3. Tech has a chance to run the tables until they play us. Not saying it is likely, but they are probably favored in every match.
  4. BYU scored 14 points on the FBS's worst team. They beat Arkansas by 7, Cincy by 8, and lost to Kansas by 11. Where are people getting that BYU is a good team?
  5. Army vs. Navy Alabama vs. Auburn Michigan vs. Ohio State USC vs. Notre Dame - Usually USC because it's one of the few games Notre Dame actually plays someone and they tend to need this loss to end their postseason discussion Florida vs. Georgia Miami vs. Florida State Cal vs. Stanford Oregon vs. Washington Arkansas vs. Texas A&M - because Arkansas is generally terrible Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss
  6. I guess I should have stayed up for the second half?
  7. Tomato, tomaytoe
  8. It's it crazy that I want this game? This actually sounds entertaining.
  9. Pretty sure the posted Michael Oher quote two pages back is correct. This time next week the popular narrative will be about the brutal retaliation by Israel. I don't know how Israel gets a "win" out of this or what the goal should even be. They could certainly reach 30,000 Gazan deaths trying to get somewhere, though. Sad state of things all around. Also, fuck Hamas. They suck. This shit falls pretty squarely on their shoulders.

    Who managed to replace Cooper Castleberry with Kevin Mar.

    It's not illegal if the block is with your hands. There are some helmets bumping into each other, but it's incidental. The receiver first made contact with his hands.
  13. This double-hold + face mask caught some eyes of officials.
  14. Scipio is correct in that it is dinosaur thinking. You used to squat on the 10 and let everything else go. Punters are better now - especially on shorter punts. The length the punt travels in the air is actually more determinative than the yardline it lands at for predicting wherher it rolls to be a touchback. If a guy boomed a punt from the 30 and it lands inside the 10 you probably still let it bounce because the punter has less control of the bounce and the coverage team has no chance. But you field short and high punts differently now.
  15. Yeah. I was thinking he was 4*. We offered them at the same time IIRC and I was the only one on the recruiting board saying the Donta needed to be a take by himself even if his brother went somewhere else.
  16. You don't follow recruiting do you? Donta had a twin brother that was TXHS player of the year that everyone was after. This wasn't a last minute grab. Everyone was after Connor Williams despite his ranking. Georgia even made a in-home push on him after he was thought to be a Texas lean.
  17. Williams and D'onta are bad examples. We were on Donta early and basically only Texas was after him. But he had a brother that was TXHS OPOY that everyone was after.

    Yes, as bad as the Big 12 is, the PAC is worse and I'm not sure that's even debatable. The B1G must pay the best because they poach good crews from other conferences. Pretty much every good B12 crew over the past decade left for B1G.
  19. It's all of the above. This is our first time losing as an underdog since 1996. When we've lost this game in the near past, we generally did not have a good team and lost a few more along the way. When we were the better team, we simply haven't lost this game in a long time. Winning out is always a tall order, but it's the only guaranteed way to the CFP now. And, yes, 12-1 Texas has a guaranteed ticket.

    Yes. NFL, college, and NFHS all have different rules. These as examples aren't a penalty in college, it is highly encouraged by DB coaches to do this when you can: Middle linebacker (note that even in the NFL the defender owns his own space even past 5 yards, he isn't obligated to let the route go through him, but LB would have to release if the receiver gets even or past him): Note that ALL contact by the offense is OPI even simply holding a defender off you:
  23. Oklahoma at #2 - best resume Texas down to #7 - It's not at all comforting that the model kept us #1 in power. We actually pulled away from Michigan a bit, who had a really good game against Minnesota. The explanation is this: our defense struggled against OU so our defensive rating fell a bit, our offense vs their defense the model saw as a wash, but the defensive teams that we've played continue to play well and that is reinforcing how good our offense is in the model's eyes (Wyoming beat Fresno and held them to 19, Alabama beat A&M and held them to 20. So we actually moved up a bit. Georgia right behind us at #8 finally playing a decent team, and they actually looked like a good team this week. Alabama #11 - offense is holding them out of the top 10, and it's not actually getting better, it's just that the defenses they play are getting worse. Note that the offense moves up to #35 if you only count the games under Milroe, but they would still be #11 overall. Kansas shows back up at #25. Best 2-loss unranked team: aggy Miraculously undefeated: Liberty
  24. Pretty much every one of his TFLs are like that. Waiting for things to play out while a backside end or LB catch up to him. His patience and ability to follow block is one of his best attributes, but he needs to understand when it's time to lower the pads and go. Sweat drives his guy 4 yards into the endzone and there's like 4 Sooners filling in behind before Brooks gets there.

    It is 100% legal to chuck and wall a receiver in NCAA football. It's legal to do in the NFL under 5 yards or past if the WR never gets even with you.
