I'm either living in purgatory/hell or in a simulation. Help me decide.

I don't know what I am doing with my life to look forward to this shit every year.  This was an emasculating loss there is no coming back from.  Another season rendered pointless well before October.  Where have I seen this before?

You should be over the loss if your age is 2-3 times older than the players on the field

I'm 48 and I never get over the first loss of the season for at least a week or two.  We effectively lost by 4 possessions.  This was a 19 point game that never felt close.  Against what can best be described as our historic 3rd most relevant rival.  Oh and do I need to point out that they are generally next to last in the SEC West since they've joined?  The conference we'll be playing in next year?

Ever see that flick Jacob's Ladder? Yeah, that was cool...

Did you take the red pill or the blue pill?

We don't agree on a lot of things, but on this, you are spot on.

Then you remember Arkansas rolling into town in 2003.

You also remember Rice in 1994.

And a whole lot of other nonsense.

We'll be OK.

Yep. Over it. Next.

I mean, I wanted us to win and I thought we might, but anyone who thought we're back or that we'd get even close to going undefeated this season was delusional. Were there some things I didn't wanna see from the coaching? Sure, but that's gonna always be the case. I'm not ready to fire Sark just yet, but whatever.
