2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.
WelfareBuysMyWeed replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
Monday in Texas. I'm picking up my parents and 2 aunts and going to vote. We're actually going Tuesday instead because we worry there might be a day-1 crowd (at least we hope so). That's gonna be 5 votes for Kamala + downticket in Texas. My dad knows the score well, Kamala winning alone means nothing without the house and senate, and that means voting out Ted Cruz. -
If we win this game, I will officially move past the ptsd I have from the Herman and Strong eras and will start thinking we’re going to drag our nuts across everyone we play. That said, people here are underestimating Beck. The kid is a damn good qb. Has he thrown some bad picks? Yep. So has Quinn. But Beck works the middle of the field well and unquestionably throws a better deep ball. If Quinn could hit the deep ball I would feel that he’s the better QB, but he can’t, so it seems hubris to say without question that he’s better. Lastly, Georgia has a legit FG kicker and we have….Bert. Let’s hope it doesn’t come down to a field goal.

Neuheisal is the first national expert I've heard that picked Georgia (this AM on Sirius XM). His premise was our secondary just hasn't been tested at all (fair) and that he thinks Beck will be able to put up points on us. He also said he wouldn't be surprised if Texas wins or even if Texas wins comfortably and generally thinks it's going to be a great chess match/game, but that was where he was leaning (also noting Georgia is a bit more desperate and Kirby will have them amped up). I thought it was fair take I thought. I tend to agree if we lose it will resemble something similar to OU or UW game last year where we make some mistakes on offense and run into a hot QB. Our secondary and defense generally played poorly against OU but Penix Jr. was just on fire against us. Beck playing at an elite level he hasn't really showed yet this season with no turnovers is how we lose.
-
LOL we are going to fuck up Georgia and it won't be that close. Feeling as confident as I did against Michigan and OU Georgia will score some, but Beck hero ball his way to some interceptions. Georgia defense is extremely susceptible. Texas wins by 10 after a garbage time TD by Georgia in the final few minutes

One thing that scares me is our Corners Hear me out: If you go back and look on film we have been beat multiple times in multiple games deep, specially the WR's more so on our level OU, and Miss State. (I believe we did very well against MICH). UGA will have the fastest WR's we have seen thus far, and I pray our Corners Muhammad more than Barron don't have a false sense of security. Muhammad has gotten beat several times this season, the QB's we've played which a lot of ppl have pointed out just wasn't worth a fuck. Beck is a top 15 talent and will complete those. Our D-Line needs to make him as uncomfortable as possible. Barron isn't the fastest and I do think they will test that, but I believe with his smarts and savey he will put himself in positions to win. Gilbeaux isn't the fastest cover either but more so will have more safety help Muhammad is the one I'm more so worried about. He plays aggressive which you like, but as a DB sometimes you can play so aggressive it puts you in a bad position. We need our Run D to be Very good Saturday, so that the safeties can help over top. If UGA is running successfully and we have to bring our safeties up to help, hopefully QUINN is on, because this may be a shoot out.

And one guy specifies that GA has played in two rivalry games. We played OU and certainly going to Michigan had the same kind of atmosphere. But those wins don't matter. At all. -

god I hope you're right. I can't help but be nervous. I just wish the election was already over, it's hell on my mental life. I legitimately don't know what I'm going to do if Trump wins. Being 100% serious contemplating leaving the country type of scenario. I don't trust America to ever come back down from the edge if he's elected. I honestly believe it'll be the end of America as we know it. -
My thought is if we go undefeated and win the SEC, as a fan base we should chant OVERRATED as Greg Sankey hands Sark the trophy.

Fuck all of them. I hate the SEC and I hope the SEC hates us back. I'm glad to be a part of the conference. In many ways I'll admit we needed them more than they needed us. College football is now going to be centered around the Big 10 and the SEC in all kinds of ways, and without a membership in one of those two conferences we wouldn't have a seat at the table. But I'm glad we didn't join this collection of hillbillies sooner. I've watched/listened to so many SEC centered internet shows over the last two years, and you can just feel the sense that we're outsiders oozing out of everyone. And it's not the same kind of outsider vibe a school like Missouri gets, because they're not really seen as a threat. Or A&M, which everyone understands is just a little different, even if like the Aggies love to brag about, no one really understands why. We do, but they don't. There's a sense we just think we're better than everyone else - which we do - without really deserving to feel that way - as if that has ever really mattered to us. There's also a sense there's something inherently wrong with the football program that we've underachieved for so long. People love to bring that up over and over again. Not just SEC fans. Big 12 fans loved to do it. College football fans loved to do it. If you don't have the right coach all the resources in the world aren't going to help you. And if you do have the right coach, sometimes they can make a huge difference in not having as much resources as everyone else. We have never had a coach we fired or forced to resign go on to great success anywhere else. Not Akers. Not McWilliams (who never went back into coaching). Not Mackovic. Not Brown. Not Strong. Herman is still a little bit up in the air, but I'm hoping for his abject failure as well. We've made bad hires. That's it. Now, some of that can be blamed on the hiring process, but I've seen completely borked hiring processes manage to get the right guy. Pete Carroll at USC is my biggest example of that. But you have to get the right guy, and we haven't on a regular basis. That's it. That's the issue. In any case, I'm going to enjoy thoroughly being the heel in this conference in a way this conference has never seen. Not Florida with Spurrier. Not Alabama. Not Georgia. Because we literally think we're better than all these other cocksuckers, and that's going to rub people the wrong way the same way it always has. Especially when we win big. I'm going to enjoy all the discounting so much. But we have to win, and eventually we have to win a national title. I just like the general direction the program is heading in under Sarkisian. Regardless of the outcome of this particular game, which I do think we're going to win.

Just saying, that if Quinn lights up the scoreboard this Saturday, you're going to want my official Surly Horns Quinn Ewers autographed football even more. We will auction it here after the season, with the winning bid donated.

The NCAA is closing the loophole used by Oregon to shave time off the game clock at the end of Saturday's win over Ohio State. In a release Wednesday, the NCAA issued a new rules interpretation on how to handle a penalty for 12 players on the field in the final two minutes of either half. If the defense has 12 players actively participate in the down, the offense can choose, along with the 5-yard penalty, to have the game clock reset to the time that had been displayed at the snap. No time change would be made if there were 12 players but one of them was attempting to leave the field and did not affect the play. Oregon coach Dan Lanning said Monday that the No. 2 Ducks had intentionally used 12 men on defense against the Buckeyes to help run time off the clock as they closed out the final seconds of their 32-31 win. "We spend an inordinate amount of time on situations and some situations don't come up very often in college football, but this was obviously something we had worked on," Lanning said. "You can see the result." Just before the ball was snapped, Oregon defensive back Dontae Manning walked onto the field, giving the Ducks an extra defender. Ohio State failed to complete a pass against Oregon's 12-man defense, and the Ducks were flagged for an illegal substitution penalty, surrendering 5 yards but also taking four seconds off the clock. A scramble by Ohio State quarterback Will Howard on the next play ended the game. Such a ploy will no longer work going forward, as NCAA football secretary-rules editor Steve Shaw said in a statement that they were looking to "take away any gain for the defense" from committing an intentional penalty. "Football is a very dynamic game," Shaw said. "Occasionally there are specific situations where committing a penalty can give a team an advantage. A guiding principle of the NCAA Football Rules Committee is that there should be no benefit when a team commits a penalty."

The Dog replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
White dudes for Harris organizer. I’ve seen a lot of questions about why white men—especially young white men—seem so angry, distrustful of the Democratic Party, or drawn to MAGA-ism. I've been studying this issue for awhile now and I wanted to share some thoughts. If we want to make inroads with white dudes, we need to understand what’s happening. First, economic opportunities are shrinking. Young men are struggling with stagnant wages and fewer job prospects, making it harder for them to gain independence, start families, or even feel secure in adulthood. That instability makes many susceptible to the MAGA whirlpool. Second, there’s a major education gap. Fewer men are graduating from college compared to women, which has serious consequences for their long-term economic and social stability. Kamala Harris is doing well with educated white men, but not with those who didn’t finish college. That difference impacts their prospects and feeds into larger societal issues, which is why we need to make it a lot easier for people to go to college without racking up debt. Third, we’re facing a mental health and social isolation crisis. Young men are lonelier and struggling with mental health issues at higher rates, partly fueled by social media and the erosion of traditional community institutions (churches, men’s groups, etc.). White men in America are four times more likely to commit suicide than any other group. This is a national crisis, and we’re barely talking about it. Fourth, there’s an identity crisis. Gender roles and societal expectations are shifting (which is a good thing!), and young men are left wondering where they fit in. Without positive role models, many gravitate toward toxic figures like Donald Trump, because at least someone is speaking to their frustrations—however inartfully (which is being generous). Democrats haven’t done enough to offer better alternatives, though I think we’re starting to, with people like Tim Walz, Pete Buttigieg, and Doug Emhoff stepping up as strong role models. Fifth, forming relationships—especially romantic ones—has become harder. Economic pressures and the rise of online dating have created new dynamics that are disincentivizing young men (and women, for that matter) from building meaningful connections. This only adds to their sense of isolation and fuels resentment, particularly toward women and those who are economically better off. Lastly, there's a deep cynicism and lack of trust in institutions. Many young men no longer believe the American Dream is for them, or that they have a place in a society that’s rapidly changing. The old American mythology is crumbling around them, and with it goes their belief in a stable future. That loss of trust is driving them toward more extreme solutions and making it harder for them to feel invested in collective progress. All of these factors—along with others I haven’t mentioned—are creating a perfect storm of resentment and frustration among young white men. But these issues are real and addressable. The problem is, for too long, Democrats have retreated from engaging in spaces where these men are, leaving them to only hear from one side. That’s why I’ve been pushing for @KamalaHarris to go on Joe Rogan and praising @PeteButtigieg for going on Fox News. We need to enter these spaces and have real conversations about the issues white men are facing. Will it win all of them over? No. But if we can win over even a small fraction, it makes it much harder for Trump and MAGAism to win nationally. We can’t keep acting like white men don’t have real issues. Everyone is suffering from something, and everyone deserves to have that suffering addressed by their government. If we address these issues with the same seriousness we give to other communities, we won’t win them all—but we don’t have to. We’re building a multicultural coalition to move this country forward, but we can’t ignore the real challenges young white men are facing. -
I don't care what the score is, we win, and most likely cover the Vegas line. SEC head office recognizes we are going to be the cash cow for the next few years, and there is no way they will let the refs do anything to let UGA win. Bank it.

Marist has been all over the map. Harris winning 52-47 (0.5 points better than Biden) but they also have Trump doing: 2 points better in Texas 2 points worse in Ohio 1.5 points better in Florida 1.5 points better in Arizona 1.5 points better in Georgia 1.5 points worse in North Carolina 2 points better in Pennsylvania 0.5 points worse in Wisconsin 2.5 points worse in Michigan Granted, some of those are almost a month old, but there we go again - national polls show her doing as well (or better) than Biden, but somehow worse in almost every swing state -

ztejas replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
I watched on and off after the 1Q or so. Wemby looks like he doesn't give a fuck. Which - whatever. It's preseason. He's going to be a top 10 player in the league conservatively. Seeing CP hit 3s is good but in past, recent seasons he's seemed to lose his legs a bit as the season goes on. We really need to do a good job of managing his minutes. I like skinny, off the bench KJ but he still worries me between the ears. I like his haircut. I like Sochan's sneaky little post-up game. He has a nose for empty space and the ball. Solid on the boards and had another nice box score. The lob he caught from Wemby early on was sick. He had a couple WTF plays and a little of that aimlessness tonight but I still believe in the kid. I do not like his haircut. Barnes will give us good vet mins but like he's been his entire career I don't trust his shooting further than I can shake a stick. Not sure we want him closing out games as the season progresses. Not sure I buy Champagne as a starter. Wesley may be a solid 8th or 9th dude but it's a little soon for me still to tell. Collins is a mixed bag. I don't know what transgression I made as a fan to deserve watching Branham - maybe all the OKC/GS KD shit - but it's still rough at times. Loved to see Bassey back out there. I thought he showed some nice potential a couple years ago. I still think we can win 40 but it may take some time to figure out rotations and gel. -

BamaATL replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
Not to my knowledge, but I think I've been a little confusing on what I'm saying so, here goes. The numbers I was referencing were along the lines that if the same amount of people voted as last time, we would peel off 5% of a district Republican's know they have to have to make Georgia even competitive (Atlanta is a steamroller, they have to have the margins, and my district is a margin). They will run it up in rural counties and districts, but with very small total numbers. What I saw today was a massive uptick in likely Dem voters, whereas Republicans were very stagnant or subdued. Extremely encouraging, not because I think we will win my district (that would be great to tell treason tour guide Barry Loudermilk to hit the bricks) but because we are going to eat the margin they desperately need. Since 2 today, I have received three texts from Loudermilk's campaign (something that has never happened, by the way, not once the election has actually started, I get run of the mill campaign shit prior every year) each about getting out to vote. What that tells me is there own internal people are worried, again, probably not for Loudermilk, but for the margins. -
Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
Longhornfrenzy replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Liucci Segment 1 (00:00:00 - 16:56:05) I don't know what losing the first game has to do with the SEC since Notre Dame is not in it. You would not include Notre Dame when talking about an easy schedule, considering that they will probably be in the playoffs. I never once said that Texas A&M did not get a great schedule. I said Texas has an easy schedule by SEC standards. The league gifted them a great situation in years one and two. Oklahoma and Brent Venables will have difficulty recovering from their first two years in the league. I believe they will ultimately undergo a coaching change. A lot of that is because they let Dillon Gabriel go, and the schedule is nearly unmanageable. The same thing can be said for Billy Napier. Those two schedules will result in two firings. It is not a coincidence. A&M has an easy schedule by SEC standards, and so does Texas. Both can be true. So does Ole Miss, and they are struggling. South Carolina is a better team than their record says. People in Austin are crowing about a tough Kentucky team. Have you checked who beat Kentucky 31-6? South Carolina would have beaten LSU by two scores if LaNorris Sellers did not get hurt. They almost beat Alabama. Nothing is easy in the SEC. Texas is going to learn that. I don't think anyone out of Austin can say that A&M has the easiest schedule in the SEC. LSU is sitting in the top ten. Missouri is ranked. Notre Dame is knocking on the door of the top ten. The schedule makers did Texas and A&M a favor. The biggest difference between Texas' and A&M's schedules are the road games. Texas has to come to Kyle Field, and they have to go to Fayetteville. Arkansas is twice as good at home. Texas A&M has to go to South Carolina, Starkville, Auburn and "The Swamp." That is night and day different. I would enjoy a Big Ten-SEC non-conference challenge. Football fans would enjoy that. I am sure plenty of people disagree. Coaches in both leagues would say their schedules are tough enough. I am all for it. I am all for A&M-Oregon or Texas-Ohio State. Imagine Kalen DeBoer traveling back to Washington. Sign me up for all of those types of games. It would be better than bowl games now. It is like Texas fans going to Ann Arbor this year and Michigan fans going to Austin in 2027. A&M fans get to plan a trip to South Bend. The Irish were looking forward to this one. The coaches aren't going to like opening a season with a power conference opponent. If A&M played Wake Forest to begin the year, they would be 6-0 and possibly ranked in the top five. It is a guaranteed win at home. As a coach, you don't want to play more of those games. You don't need it in the SEC. In 12 years in the SEC, Texas A&M is about .500 against Mississippi State. We like to think that it is way lower than A&M's rightful place and that we should never lose to them. That is not true based on what Texas has been on the field. Do I want A&M to win 75 percent of them moving forward? Absolutely, because .500 is way too low. That is why you have had two coaches fired. Losses against Ole Miss and Mississippi State played very big roles in Kevin Sumlin and Jimbo Fisher not making it. These are pivotal games. It is no secret that A&M has had some costly losses to Mississippi State. The most costly one was when A&M went up there ranked No. 4. Trevor Knight got hurt, but they were getting outplayed to that point. There is no telling if A&M would have won that game with a healthy Knight. The offense was struggling mightily. Outside of that year, Mississippi State has been on a fairly even level as Texas A&M and winning at home. When Mississippi State beat an undefeated and top-10 A&M team, they were clearly the better team. They beat A&M, LSU, and Auburn all in a row. They ascended to No. 1. Starkville is a tough place to play. I think you better take this game very seriously. The two times Texas A&M went into Starkville and won are the two best years in the league. If you go in there and win, it is fair to start wondering if this could be one of those kind of seasons. Segment 2 (16:56:06 - 23:56:13) Based on everything you just said about their history in Starkville, improvements from Mississippi State and what we've seen in the SEC this year, I would say signs that A&M has turned a corner would be winning the football game. If it's a 60-minute game that's close, I think they have just as much chance of coming back the next week and beating a top-10 LSU. I'm looking at Georgia now and saying, "What are they?" We're going to find out this weekend. Even if Georgia loses, it's a 60-minute game. They could still win out and be 10-2. If they're not very good, you have a Georgia team that doesn't make the playoffs. It's tough to judge everyone right now, and I think you need to judge based on wins and losses. If A&M beats Mississippi State handily, they will be 4-0 in the conference with a massive home game coming up. If they beat them comfortably, that will be three out of the four games in the SEC. Before people start talking, we don't know how good Missouri is, but they beat Vanderbilt, which is something that Kentucky and Alabama couldn't do. If they win the game against Mississippi State, it's good for the program. If they win comfortably, you have to start saying, "Is A&M playing as good of football as we're seeing in the SEC other than the school in Austin?" Texas has played no one. Is Michigan even ranked now? Oklahoma is unranked now. They have played no one. A&M has played Notre Dame and lost. They played Missouri and won, and I think Arkansas is better than people think. Segment 3 (23:56:14 - 31:30:29) Conner Weigman played fine against McNeese. It was a quarter and a half. All the criticism was based on Notre Dame. The reality was, yes, you should have been concerned and critical of that performance. Where it went wrong was assuming that it was the end of this quarterback who had a body of work that said it was an outlier. It wasn't guaranteed, but it was a "we have to see it." You expected it to go back to what it was coming into the season because we saw it enough prior. It would be significant for Weigman to stack really good games, including a road win this week. I don't believe he has had a road win. I think he'll go out and get it, just like A&M got one against Florida. It would be significant for A&M to win a third game away from Kyle Field. That would be significant because you have to win at Auburn and South Carolina. If Weigman, the offense and the passing game go out and play well and look like an efficient unit for two weeks in a row, you could keep saying that's what you expect to take the field every week. Still, there will be ups and downs. South Carolina has a better defense than Missouri and Mississippi State. Texas is a better defense than everybody else on the schedule. It might not always be up, but if he plays like he did against Mizzou, it will be good for him and his confidence. It would represent another step for an offense that keeps going on an upward trajectory. Cade Klubnik is a big reason why Clemson is one of the biggest surprise teams of the season. I said that Clemson would be, but I also said the same thing about Oklahoma. I had said for the last two years that Oklahoma was moving in the wrong direction, and I also said Steve Sarkisian was doing a better job of building an SEC football team than Venables was. That was a real assessment, and now, the Sooner fans are recognizing it. Their fans don't think they'll win seven games. They have Maine, and who else? Where are the other two wins? They have South Carolina this week, and that's a must-win for Oklahoma. Their defense got exposed. Look up Payton Thorne's passing yards vs. Oklahoma. I think he threw for like 350 vs. that defense. People who went to the game on Saturday are saying Texas is bigger, faster and stronger. People are starting to believe it. That's going to be the case for a lot of teams in this league. They'll be bigger, faster and stronger than the Sooners, and it's a failure by Venables. The schedule next year is no easier for him. The defense has been exposed for the last couple of weeks. Segment 4 ( 31:30:30 - 37:41:27) Texas still has a path to navigate as well to get there. Florida is a good team, and Georgia is as well. I'm still not buying Vanderbilt or Kentucky being capable of beating Texas. There is one caveat if I'm a Texas fan. Converting a lot of third-and-2s to third-and-4s and keeping that explosive offense off the field for a long period of time. I don't know if this is the Iowa State or Kansas method, but Texas is too overwhelmingly talented for Vandy. Maybe not for Kentucky with the way that Kentucky plays. For A&M, if the Aggies lose the game this weekend, then it's alarming and concerning. If they were to lose to LSU, South Carolina or Auburn, everyone would be off the ship. If they go 3-1 in these four starting this weekend, in year one under Mike Elko, you will still be playing in your final game of the regular season for an SEC title berth. You are first in the conference for the first time since you joined 13 years ago. You are first in any conference since 1998. You'd be playing for that in your final game of the regular season. A&M has never played in game 12 to where they would be in the title game if they won. I think it would almost be a certainty if you were 6-1 with the chance to get 7-1 in the league. In your last game, and with a new head coach. That would be a hell of a first season for Mike Elko. If they look good or win in Starkville and if they just figure out a way to beat LSU. Look at the upcoming games. One that should be a toss-up, and the other where you're frankly just a better football team. That's when I'll start taking a realistic look at the things other teams are talking about. I got to see a little more. I need to see A&M beat two top-10 teams in the country at home with not only Missouri but LSU, too. I need to see them win another road game, and I need to see that path shrink. I don't think this team will be good enough to survive an off or a down week. The challenge for Elko and the Aggies is exactly what he said yesterday. They know it's going to be a tough environment, and they know they have to play their asses off in Starkville -
I can't imagine that the aggy/LSU game isn't prime time with it being basically a DeFacto potential elimination game for the SEC title appearance(neither team is getting in if they lose IMO) and it's 2 high profile team. But with Vandy's run and beating Bama...everyone will want to see them take on #1 Texas(if we win this weekend of course. They need to do away with guaranteed seedings. Yes a conference Title and being the highest ranked Non G5 team guarantees you a spot int the playoffs, but it should not for seeding. That should go directly off the rankings/committee. No reason a 3/4 loss Big 12 or ACC team should be 4 and a 1 loss team be 5 just because they play in a tougher conference IMO.

Cowbell is hot garbage. They will win by double digits. We all want the coaster to peak after Mizzou and go down Saturday, but it wont happen this weekend.

Tomatillo? Tomatillo, where are you? Tomatillo, are you gone? Sark's offense is built on numbers and mismatches, getting guys in space, and hitting them, which we have had plenty of in every game. Even with dropped TD passes, poor throws and untimely/questionable penalties, we have scored with ease. All that means is we might have a few faster guys trying to catch up, while we have the ball and are running away. They may reduce the YAC, but I don't see them stopping the passes. I watched some of Ikard & Lehman (OU honks) last night; They commented that OU's defense seemed lost, looking at the sideline for signals and getting aligned while Texas was snapping the ball. I expect Georgia to have similar issues, trying to figure out what we're doing, oh, shit!, they snapped the ball, and off to the races. Well said, Wulaw. I was going to further elaborate for Tomatillo, but ... I see Georgia's off the field antics bleeding into their on the field performance, which has been somewhat inconsistent in every game they've played. Seeing Kirby's antics looks like a coach on the edge trying to keep the ball from unraveling, not a guy gently nudging the steering wheel. We know Texas is good this year, we just don't know how good. I do know we have a great scheme on offense and explosive play makers at every position, and an OL that knows that it all starts with them. As good as our offensive numbers are, they could and should have been considerably better. I thought I read that Georgia had 2 injured OL that are coming back this week, and some had been critical of how poorly they have looked. I expect them to better than OU, but not like what they have had in the past. I think it almost comical the constant SEC refrain that Texas has never been in a high stakes game or played in a hostile environment before. The new end zone keeps more of the sound in than before. The Alabama game was very loud, and hot as hell. The atmosphere at DKR in 1977, after beating OU for the first time in 6 years, Texas rising to #1, with Earl playing for a Heisman was electric. I expect Texas v. Georgia at DKR on a Saturday night to be as loud as its ever been. I think it almost comical the constant SEC refrain that Texas has never been in a high stakes game or played in a hostile environment before. Texas has ended commendable home winning streaks of Michigan, Alabama, USC, Ohio State, & Nebraska, and has scoreboard on all of them, as well as Oklahoma & Notre Dame. We're Texas! One Riot, One Ranger. Its out time to lead from the front, again. DKR has been so loud you couldn't talk to the people next to you, many times. Its hard to compare being in the middle of the student section v. being in the end zone or upped deck. Miss State had back to back delay-of-game penalties. That is plenty loud enough. In 1974 against Arkansas, freshman Earl Campbell, after scoring on a 68 yard run, blocked a punt that Doug English returned for a TD. That was probably the loudest thing I'd ever heard that wan't connected to a jet engine. Ricky's record run against A&M was like slowing cranking a bank of 100 W Marshalls from zero to 11, with the crescendo sustained at the end for who know's how long, making your ears and head, and eventually, your throat hurt. I'm looking forward to some similar experiences Saturday night.

We aren't that far removed from a decade-plus stretch where I'd start to check out after the OU game because it was obvious the season wasn't going anywhere interesting or fun. To some extent being in the position the program has been in the past 2-3 years feels like playing with house money. It's nice. I mean, yeah obviously I want the Georgia win in a big way but even if Texas loses they are still sitting at 6-1, probably in the top 5 and certainly in the top 10, every goal in front of them with a dominant OU win in hand, and November road games at Arkansas and A&M.

that screenshot made me think about something...we already kicked michigan and oklahoma in the teeth and both of them have that utterly idiotic jumpman branding for their football teams. we have florida later this season who also wears that stupid shit. is unc the only other team to have that? mack needs to go on a second half tear in the acc and somehow win the conference so we can beat their ass in the playoff. random, inconsequential thought. keep kicking ass, tre.

Also I find Oregon annoying AF usually however I think it would be amazing if they can win the Big Ten this year in their first year and we can win the SEC in our first year. Maybe OU go 1-7 or 2-6 in SEC play and you have the holy Sooner trinity.

Yeah well Texas was playing at home...and Miss St obviously wasn't trying that hard or it would have been closer duh. No sir...Texas plays the worst teams in Conference...aggy has been saying so all year. You must not have seen them play the great and mighty Georgia team then... So when they beat the Ags it'll be "they were actually a really good team" OR when they lose in a heartbreaker "well see what they did against Georgia? Not a bad loss PLUS we still only have one SEC loss...so beat the rest of the teams on our schedule including that crappy untested TU team and we're going to the dad gum SEC title game!" No no this is all according to plan. Texas played bad MSU...NOW they're good, like Mizzou, so when Aggy beats them they can crow about it. Especially when they win 38-13 and can claim "we beat them better than TU"
