  1. I don't know who needs to hear this but Kamala is going to fuck shit up and we are going to win this fucking election! It won't be close. LFG!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Syracuse (5-1) at Pitt (6-0) tonight on ESPN We have not been 6-0 since 1982, when Danny was playing QB and the season after Jackie left for A&M. That was the team that lost, 7-3, to SMU with Dickerson & James, in the Cotton Bowl. Pitt was ranked #1 to open that season before opening with a pretty good UNC team on a weeknight. Pitt won, 7-6, but dropped in the polls, even though UNC was ranked #5. Kind of did not make sense. The Panthers kept winning until a not fantastic Gerry Faust coached Notre Dame team with Allen Pinkett came in and pulled an ugly upset. Pitt then won its next two games before losing to #5 State Pen, 10-19, up there in Crappy Valley. The loss in the Cotton Bowl was tough because Pitt was going in to score before Joe McCall fumbled at the goal line. Danny also threw an INT in the end zone, I think in the 4th quarter.It was recovered by SMU. Dickerson ran for 124 yards on 27 carries. Danny completed 19 of 37 passes for just 181 yards. Hopefully we can win tonight before heading to SMU for the next game, Nov. 2. and a chance to go 8-0, which we have not been since 1981. Also, hopefully nobody dies at our tailgate tonight like the fellow from Cal did at our last game here in Pittsburgh.
  3. Feeling pretty good about Georgia and Pennsylvania based on what you guys have been posting. Kamala wins those and we should be good. We should know fairly early on how things are going but Pennsylvania took forever to count votes last time so maybe not.
  4. The bad version of Quinn isn't going to turn the ball over 2-3 times a game against the regular defenses we are about to face. He is risk adverse which is why so many people dislike him on this board. He, much like a lot of NFL qb's, will take the lesser gain if it's safer or easier to complete. I'm not saying Arch can't win or that I know he wouldn't be better than Quinn. I am saying that there is a ton of data that says RS freshman qb's tend to make mistakes and those mistakes are amplified when you're trying to be the savior. This team should win at least 11 games, that's a lot of pressure on a young kid who is taking over for the former starter who has won a conference title and been to the college football playoff. It's a shitty position for Sark to be in and it sucks for Arch as well, honestly. I hope Quinn reverts to form and we win out without talking about this ever again lol.
  5. Now let me ask you a question. Do you think the bad version of Quinn the last 2 weeks is substantially better than Arch? This is where I come in on this argument. If Texas is going to go into every game wondering what they will get out of the QB position, then I am in favor of the younger QB with a higher ceiling. The argument should not be that Texas can win despite the QB play. The odds of going 4-0 with inconsistent QB play is not very good. This is a very strange situation, where we have seen the starter fall from top 2/3 in the draft to benched in about 6 weeks. This is really up to Quinn. Vandy is 91st in pts allowed per drive, so he is not going to have a better opportunity the rest of the season to silence the critics
  6. Why? I really want to understand why anyone is worried about the aggy game. They only have two comfortable wins, and one was against McNeese State. Are y'all worried about Kyle Field? Because them being really good at home is a myth. And our guys have wins in Tuscaloosa and Ann Arbor. We're going to fuck them up in a bad way. I'm more worried that we blow a game against Vandy or Arky than I am about aggy. Those guys suck.
  7. Went for a jog with my daughter around the neighborhood. Trying to get her trained up for cross country. Anyway, we were about half a mile in to it when a kid pointed out a “dog” hung in a fence. It tried to jump the wooden fence and one of the boards broke, and it was hanging by its neck stuck, back legs clawing trying to keep from dying. So I go to save the dog I realize it’s a coyote. Daughter required that it be saved even though it was a coyote. Being the bad ass dad that I am, I walked up, touched it once to hopefully calm it, grabbed it about midway and lifted him free if the fence. Fucker proceeded to try to bite me, but I was in no danger, set/dropped him on the ground to recover. We did another lap, and he took off by the time we came back around. All the neighbors saw him fleeing back to Armand bayou at that point. I could definitely give a chimp a run for its money. Punchers chance at winning.
  8. who here has any confidence in quinn ewers starting, playing, and winning big games for us? this team is easily talented enough to go to the sec title game, the playoffs, and the national title game. who here has ANY confidence in us getting to/winning these games with QE starting? nobody? so what are we talking about here? we know he’s not the guy, and we have a backup QB who will be our starter next year and who we know is ready to play right now. so what are we talking about? what are we waiting for? we are spinning our wheels and doing a disservice to our entire team as long as QE is our QB. it’s that simple.
  9. But, we are going to stomp Vandy and we are going to win it all. How is that overreacting?
  10. I was encouraged by what the defense showed Saturday but we definitely benefited from some key drops. I was also puzzled that we seemed surprised by Georgia’s screen game when that is a Bobo staple. They seemed to be targeting Guilbeau quite a bit when they had to have a play. Teams also must see something on film for the flea flicker to be continually dialed up. That was the 3rd or 4th time we’ve seen it this year. Overall a winning effort but I think we can go to another level. The offense and special teams definitely dealt them a shit hand.
  11. The Branch Davidians stopped being a problem when Koresh died because pretty much all of them died with him. There's a chance that the GOP shifts back to something saner if Trump loses again or, more likely, when he finally dies. And there's a good chance nobody can really step into his shoes and politically organize the same forces that he did. But they're mainstream now. "Conservatism" is Trumpism and many of them want violence. They're not going to deradicalize. Our best hope is probably that a group of them further radicalizes as their ability to win elections shrinks, that they attempt a violent coup, and that they all get killed. Because the alternative is probably a very long campaign of "lone wolf" style terrorism that we all just live with.
  12. Stop me if you've heard this, but the word is Pennsylvania. Look around. We don't. We're past the point of no return on that. Even if Harris wins this election, Democrats and their coalition aare going to have to hold the line every time. Obviously it will break at some point, be it in 2024, 28, 32, whatever. And when it does we'll get Project XXXX.
  13. I agree with all of this outside of one point. Quinn has not, at any point in his career, shown a consistent (note the word consistent) ability to make well timed deep ball passes. He has flashes here and there, a game or two, but never consistently. Now he's defaulting to check down, lost all pocket presence/awareness, isn't reading well and isn't even trying to run. I look at this as more than just this year, but I'll start with playing for the SEC championship. I don't have a high level of confidence he will get us to the SEC championship. I acknowledge it's possible but based on his current struggles and the rest of the Texas schedule, not highly probable, imo. Next winning the SEC? My confidence drops even lower. Likely it will be Georgia, who preseason I picked to win the SEC with Texas getting an opt in. I really dislike Texas in a re-Match against Georgia with this version of Quinn. Now... looking at the National Championship, if there is anyone that has a high level of confidence that we can win it with Quinn... well, you've gone full FUMB coolaid drinking, orange slice boogaloo dumb. Do I think we have a better chance of making the SEC playoff with Arch... if he gets reps starting soon vs this Quinn, absolutely. Could we beat Georgia with Arch... possibly. If Arch gets all the playing time between now and then, I think with our defense I'd move that to a likely depending on his growth. I sure as shit like our chances of beating Georgia more if Arch has started and played the rest of the season better than Ewers. Now... National Championship.. I think with Arch it's LONG shot at best, but.. and here's the rub, I don't think it's any worse than with today's version of Quinn. And... that... leads.. me.. to... NEXT YEAR. Whats better for Texas in the big picture. Hoping and praying Quinn pulls his head out of his ass, and maybe make the SEC, perhaps win it and likely be eliminated in the playoffs or..... Getting Arch up to speed THIS year. I know what I think. Before you knee jerk answer really think about your answer. Think about the Washington game last year, Ou this year, and Georgia last week. Hell, think about most OU games and big games for Quinn. Then think about the future. If you're honest, really examine it, think about the future and truly look at what Quinn is doing on the field..... You're going to come to only one conclusion. It's a hard pill to swallow, but it should be done and it should be done soon.
  14. Yeah over the summer a house popped on the market in the main neighborhood I was looking at, kinda in the Jersey village area but inside the beltway. Nice neighborhood, great house, and it was listed so well when I reached out to Phil he said I better get an offer in quick because it wasn’t going to last - I think it ended up being on the market for all of 6 days or so. Anyway, we’re only about 10 min from our old house which is awesome. We’re still close enough to all the stuff we liked to do and I’m pretty sure longhorns outnumber aggies in my neighborhood. Win-win-win.
  15. The only thing keeping him from demonizing Muslims right now instead of Haitians (or the GQP as a whole going after trans folks) is probably Michigan. We can laugh at how fucking stupid and ignorant he sounds when he talks about Haitians eating pets or why all of the geese disappeared (they fucking migrated) but most likely, regardless of how fucking stupid he can be, as well as the people around him, he has made the calculated decision that trashing Haitians is not going to cost him any more Black votes than he's already lost (or never had in the first place). I think Michigan will go for Kamala, but in order for him to win, Trump has to believe that Michigan is in play, and he can't help Kamala out by going after Muslims, even though MAGA would love for him to shit on Muslims some more. He is a dumb motherfucker on a lot of things, but he can read audiences, unlike his running mate.
  16. I have said repeatedly that Quinn didn’t play good. You’re trying to change the argument, stop that. If arch had come in and drove down for scores those two drives he was in then sark would have left him in. His first drive was not great but we got a 15 yard face mask penalty that kept the drive alive. We got 8 total yards and punted. His second drive he had an electric run followed by being sacked twice and one of them being a strip sack that we lost (loss of 22 yards on the sacks.) @immamac you’re high or stupid, we weren’t “actually moving the ball” with arch. It was the same shit, no execution and being whipped on the OL. If arch had been the answer sark would have left him in, there would have been no choice but to leave him in. Our defense is bad ass though. I’m with you guys in arch being the future and unlocking sark’s offense to its potential. He will go down a legend but it ain’t right now. He’s reckless and with the defense we have we just need a game manager to win out. Playoffs? I don’t think Quinn has what it takes to win it all but I’d love to be wrong.
  17. 1) There is no way to couch a Muslim, who favors Muslim rights and the lives of Gazans/Palestinians, voting for Trump as a "reasonable choice." It is facially unreasonable and unmoored from any logic. That is, it is facially emotional and petulant. And -- to tell on myself -- I fucking RECOGNIZE such choices. Put me in a box where I feel like all my choices are shitty, and I can lash out. In my pain and rage, the only satisfaction I can get is to spread the pain and rage. Note: that is a fucking character flaw and weakness that I have worked much of my life to get past. But make no mistake, it's super-shitty. A muslim vote for Trump is irrational, and is largely a creature of "y'all make life shitty for me and mine, so I vote to make life shitty for everyone." 2) And yes, shadenfreude is real and is merited. "Don't vote for the leopard, he said he will eat all our faces, and that especially includes your face." "Fuck you, I'm voting for the leopard." [Leopard wins, promptly eats voter's face] "Oh no, my face! This is terrible! Don't you feel bad for me?" "Ummmm.....no. We fucking warned you that this was exactly what was going to happen, you told us to fuck off and voted for him anyway. You asked for it, you got it." Do not expect sympathy. But if it makes the muslim voters feel any better -- and right now, they're thinking that it will -- plenty of other people/groups are going to have their faces eaten too. Stop overcomplicating it and shading it. A muslim American voting for Trump because they are pissed off about the treatment of muslims and Palestinians in particular is making an emotional, angry choice, which they KNOW will inflict pain across a broad spectrum of people, including all the people they claim to care about. They've just given up on anyone helping them the way they want, so they've decided that if that's the way it's going to be, everyone should suffer. It's a human reaction, it's not novel here. But it's also utterly stupid, counterproductive, and reprehensible (I didn't push myself to get past that tendency for giggles -- I did it because I realized that indulging in it makes me a shitty person).
  18. 2 points on this: 1. If they are dumb enough to vote for Trump and he wins, they deserve what they get, and it's gonna be ugly on several fronts. 2. We are in America. Foreign policy is never going to be issue #1 for any candidate. I'm not sure what more they want from Harris. She's called for a cease fire and that is much more than Trump will do. Trump will tell Bibi to go nuts and he'll back him all the way because he loves dictators.
  19. Speaking of Vince and Colt ... Vince was just a stupid, sick, super human athlete. At the end of the game, with a chance to win, we knew that due to his athleticism and will to win, we were going to come out on top. Now, was Vince a great "student" of the game, studying opponent's game films for hours at a time? ... eh... Maybe not. But, having the intangibles, confidence, athleticism, the ability to make the team believe ... and we saw the results. With Colt, he didn't have Vince's athleticism... But, his accuracy was crazy... not a great, over the top, strong arm. But Colt had the ability to dissect a defense With the game on the line, our belief in Colt's innate ability to pull out a win (except.. fuck you Tech) because he was a student of the game, was rewarded on most occasions. With Ewers ... he is not a freak athlete like Vince. Does he study like Colt did? Does he have the intellect aspect for the game? He certainly has greater assets and gifts than most college QBs. But, he also has a history of questionable decisions. Skipping his last year of high school and playing experience to make a money grab at Ohio State? Coming to Texas and not understanding that he will be the "face of the program" and throws down the mullet and grungy beard look? Great at ou and for other positions perhaps. The injuries. Yes, he played great against Alabama last year and Michigan this year... and shown other sporadic aspects of greatness. But ... with the game on the line? Do you believe? Now, I hope i am dead wrong on this and he lights things up the rest of the year, is drafted mid 1st round and has a good career in the NFL. But ...
  20. Guys, can we just agree that Beck sucks worse than Quinn, and neither are winning the Heisman (not that it matters, but it wouldn't suck to add yet another trophy to the case for recruits to see)? I don't see either going in the first round. Quinn because injury history, and Beck because he's just bad. Like, really bad. It shows how much he relied on Bowers and MCcomkey.
  21. The ass kicking would have been easier to stomach if it was Arch’s 7th start and we were building towards the future. Quinn looked exactly the same as Arch and Quinn is in year 3. Everything we are doing with Quinn right now is like paying rent since he’s going to the NFL. We could instead be putting equity into our QB future by starting Arch and getting him live snaps even if it’s during a shitshow game like this. I don’t see us winning a championship with Quinn so anything involving him as the offensive leader is just a waste of time and used to pump up Sark’s reputation as a QB whisperer.
  22. Because we are the point of the campaign where we are going to start throwing turtle shells into the fire to read the cracks. It's human tradition to seek out any form of divination to see if we'll win the battle and whether our crops will get rain. 5000 years of desperation can't be wrong.
  23. This is the dream. A legit ass kicking will go a long way towards distancing the non-cultists away from Trump once and for all. No one wants to hear a two-time loser cry wolf again when it's not even close. But we don't deserve that. So we'll get 270-276, it will be a shit show, the GOP will cling onto and appease angry MAGA voters for dear life, and Trump will be even more front and center than normal. But at least it's still a win.
  24. That is just fucking false. The guy they are voting for is the only POTUS in US history to impose a muslim ban. He has openly stated his support for Bibi going scorched earth in Gaza. If you claim to support muslim rights and Palestinian people at all, you cannot vote for a man who says this: “When I’m president, we will not allow colleges to be taken over by violent radicals. If you come here from another country and try to bring jihadism, anti-Americanism, or antisemitism to our campuses, we will immediately deport you, you’ll be out of that school.” “From the start, Harris has worked to tie Israel’s hand behind its back, demanding an immediate ceasefire, always demanding ceasefire,” Trump said at the event just a few hours after his press conference, adding that it “would only give Hamas time to regroup and launch a new October 7 style attack.” “I will give Israel the support that it needs to win but I do want them to win fast,” Trump added. Labeling pro-Palestinian protesters against Israel as “pro-Hamas thugs” and “jihad sympathizers,” Trump threatened to arrest and deport them from the US if he returns to the White House. Trump’s estimation of the real estate potential of the Gaza Strip echoes that of his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who said in an interview with the faculty chair of Harvard’s Middle East Initiative in February that “Gaza’s waterfront property could be very valuable.” Kushner also suggested that, if he were in charge, he would “try to move people” from Rafah, in the south of Gaza, into the Negev desert, “so you can go in and finish the job” of eliminating Hamas. Fucking hell. The fucking suicidal idiocy. It's not about opting for a better choice. It's about punishing EVERYONE ELSE ON EARTH if they don't get their way. It's pulling the cord on an electoral suicide vest, and it's terrorism by ballot. Fuck them all.
  25. Pretty insane rollercoaster of a week on a personal, professional, and sports-watching level for me last week but we're so back. All lines are Circa opening lines. Tuesday games Sam Houston State (-6) @ Florida International (7:30 / 6:30 ESPNU): The Bearkats head to Pitbull Stadium at Vice U. I respect FIU for doing whatever it takes to make people notice them. UTEP @ Louisiana Tech (-6) (8 / 7 CBSSN): It's probably football! Wednesday games Liberty (-25) @ Kennesaw State (7 / 6 CBSSN): It's our weekly duty as college football fans to hope this Little Sister of the Poor finally extinguishes the Flames' Playoff hopes. Middle Tennessee State @ Jacksonville State (-20) (7:30 / 6:30 ESPN2): I liked MACtion a lot more than the midweek CUSA pupu platter. Thursday games Georgia Southern (-1) @ Old Dominion (7 / 6 ESPN2): The Monarchs have had a pretty wild season that includes a two-degrees transitive win over Bama and being thiiis close to an actual win over South Carolina. They also contrived to lose to an ECU team that's already fired their coach. We always respect a chaos team here at Surly Horns. Syracuse @ #19 Pittsburgh (-4) (7:30 / 6:30 ESPN): This is a good game! Pitt is ranked, Cuse is receiving votes, and it's a good old fashioned regional ACC matchup, which is all too rare these days. Friday games Louisville (-8) @ Boston College (7:30 / 6:30 ESPN2): Both teams were feisty early in the season and have faded a bit. Louisville will have to go to Chestnut Hill and bounce back from the ACC refs buttfucking them against Miami. Why do they keep propping that mid Canes squad that's going to get obliterated in the Playoff? #17 Boise State (-3) @ UNLV (10:30 / 9:30 CBSSN): The regular season G5 game of the year is at 10:30 on a Friday on CBSSN. Sickos scheduling. Ashton Jeanty against Barry Odom's defense should be a delight. Rutgers @ USC (-13) (11 /10 Fox): Rutgers heads to LA for a bizarro Pac-12 After Dark special. This Rutgers team is solid enough to give a worn out and sad USC team that just lost to Maryland fits. Saturday games #24 Navy vs #12 Notre Dame (-14) @ East Rutherford, N.J. (12 / 11 ABC): Get your morning suits and flapper dresses on, the Roaring Twenties are BACK. Ranked Notre Dame! RANKED NAVY! Anchors aweigh, this should be fun and the crowd should be loud as hell. Too bad it's at an NFL stadium, and a bad, bland one at that. Oklahoma @ #18 Ole Miss (-20) (12 / 11 ESPN): Watch an angry, rested Lane Kiffin team take out all their frustrations on OU's lifeless corpse. Washington @ #13 Indiana (-5) (12 / 11 BTN): A great time to check out undefeated, ranked-over-Alabama Indiana. Curt "it's pretty simple, I win. Google me." Cignetti is working a miracle in Bloomington. Big Noon Saturday once again rolled over and showed its belly by picking Ohio State pummelling a shitty team (Nebraska @ #4 Ohio State (-23), 12/11 Fox), and you can continue the Mack Brown Schadenfreude Tour by watching North Carolina @ Virginia (-5) (12/11 CW). - #21 Mizzou @ #15 Alabama (-13) (3:30 / 2:30 ABC): Which team's season completely evaporates in Tuscaloosa? #20 Illinois @ #1 Oregon (-21) (3:30 / 2:30 CBS): How did Fox let CBS get this matchup? It's ranked-on-ranked, but this feels like one where the Ducks run away with it after the Illini had a big emotional win against Michigan last week. #11 BYU (-1) @ Central Florida (3:30 / 2:30 ESPN): Kalani Sitake's Cougars are one of the stories of the season, grabbing hold of the Big XII from Utah and Okie Lite. However, the Bounce House can be a tough away test. #5 Texas (-17) @ #25 Vanderbilt (4:15 / 3:15 SECN): A wounded Horns squad takes on Diego Pavia and the 'Dores. They're feisty, they beat Bama, they've also lost to Georgia State and kept it close with Ball State into the fourth quarter. A pair of teams that can be a little Jekyll and Hyde. - #8 LSU @ #14 Texas A&M (-3) (7:30 / 6:30 ABC): Elko's boys have taken care of business against a gentle schedule after getting rolled by Notre Dame. Brian Kelly has pulled his usual solid season after losing the opening game routine, including winning one of the most statistically improbable games of the season against Ole Miss. Should be a good game! #3 Penn State (-7) @ Wisconsin (7:30 / 6:30 NBC): Another B1G game that would have been a much better Big Noon pick. Luke Fickell finally seems to be getting Wisco back to hard-nosed respectability, and Penn State is a fragile number 3. This one could be spicy. #22 SMU (-10) @ Duke (8 / 7 ACCN): A big game in the ACC standings! Can SMU go into Fortress Wallace Wade (tongue firmly in cheek) and come out with a victory against Manny and Maalik? A trio of rivalry games that are always fun watches for pageantry / hatred purposes: The Battle for the Paul Bunyan Trophy determines mitten supremacy (Michigan State @ Michigan (-6), 7:30 / 6:30 BTN), we have Florida State (lol) @ #6 Miami (-20) (7 / 6 ESPN), and the Sunflower Showdown does the same on the plains (Kansas @ Kansas State (-11), 8 / 7 ESPN2). - The Big XII continues to recreate Pac-12 After Dark for your viewing pleasure Cincinnati @ Colorado (-4) (10:15 / 9:15 ESPN): This should be pretty straightforward for Deion. The Scott Satterfield experiment is a pretty joyless slog for Cincy fans. Washington State (-13) @ San Diego State (11:30 / 10:30 CBSSN): Actually a fun matchup, but wow is that some timeslot. Nevada (-1) @ Hawaii (12 / 11 Team1App): Can Chaote's Wolf Pack pass the Hawaii Test? Can any mainland viewers?
