looks like they finally posted a link: https://texassports.com/showcase/embed.aspx?Live=591

Game week is officially here and things kick off with Coach Sark's press conference at 11:00 am. I'm not finding a link for it on texassports.com, but if someone can find one, please post away. Week 1 opponent? The mighty Rice Owls. Rice finished 5-8 last year (yes, they made a bowl game at 5-7). Here is a look at their "talent"

i noticed that you had left them off. but they'll be due for a significant move after their game against fsu anyway so no harm, no foul.

nandor is my favorite. can't wait to see how they resolve the storyline when he finds out guillermo had derek turn him. "you made a fart in my coffin"

We only had 8 voters which helped lead to four ties in total points. So it's a weird-looking top 25 poll, but dammitt it's ours. Week 1: Rank Team Record Points 1 Georgia (8) (0-0) 200 T2 Michigan (0-0) 183 T2 Ohio State (0-0) 183 T4 USC (1-0) 158 T4 Alabama (0-0) 158 6 Texas (0-0) 151 7 Clemson (0-0) 142 8 Penn State (0-0) 139 9 Washington (0-0) 136 10 Florida State (0-0) 132 11 LSU (0-0) 130 T12 Notre Dame (1-0) 102 T12 Utah (0-0) 102 14 Oregon (0-0) 101 15 Tennessee (0-0) 98 16 Kansas State (0-0) 84 17 North Carolina (0-0) 50 T18 Oregon State (0-0) 47 T18 TCU (0-0) 47 20 Ole Miss (0-0) 46 21 Wisconsin (0-0) 45 22 Oklahoma (0-0) 39 23 Texas Tech (0-0) 36 24 Tulane (0-0) 28 25 Iowa (0-0) 26 Others receiving votes: Florida (8), UTSA (7), UCLA (7), Kentucky (6), South Carolina (5), Boise State (4)

surprised there hasn't been any mention of the new zach bryan album. i am greatly enjoying it this weekend. early on, i think this one is the stand out:

don't think it's gonna look terribly different from any of the other preseason polls from what i've seen thus far. can confirm that of the 30 teams that have appeared on a ballot thus far, aggy is not one of them.

lol same.

one final bump for week 1. ballots are due at 7:00pm tonight. so far we have a total of 6. can we hit double digits?

oh wow, notre dame easily drove down the field and scored a td in the time the navy coach decided to give them. what a shock.

good lord there was some dumbass coaching by navy there. first, they take a timeout ahead of a third and 7 when they were having success running the ball and milking the clock. then they do the stupid ass "try and get points" thing when it's obvious notre dame is going to score at will. so now notre dame has the ball back with just under two minutes and has two timeouts. i'd be shocked if they don't score score again before the half.

never understood all the people who wanted to shorten college football games. we sit around fiending for this shit for 8 months of the year and people want less of it.

holy shit max holloway

ordered this from last stand hats yesterday. i know it's technically a texas baseball hat, but i'll be wearing it all football season as well.

i didn't really plan on waking up for this, but i'm awake and the US is about to tip off against New Zealand on ESPN2. US is favored by 37.

that was the one that got me too.

lol yeah ask and you shall receive. if my math is correct, the magic number to win the division sits at 23.

fair point.

honestly, i've been so focused on september 2nd being opening day that i completely forgot about week 0. neither notre dame or usc should be challenged, but by all means you can wait until after saturday's games conclude before sending in your ballot.

it is just very hard for me to imagine a scenario where this team finishes 7-5. even 8-4 feels like a stretch. 9-3 seems like a much more likely floor.

we are up to five votes. this thing is scorching hot.

between the two of us, there are now two ballots officially in.

we have the dumbest fucking morons as our elected officials in this state:
