The dude has Aggy ranked above Texas in his SEC ranking, despite Aggy losing at home to a (not) top 10 team and Texas absolutely destroying a top 10 team on the road.

You're assuming these people have a logical, rational, sane world view and trying make sense of them.  Doesn't work.  They all draw clocks like this:

So if Texas goes undefeated there is no possible way to meet up with them in the playoffs is your stance?

Huh?

I mean it would probably mean we missed the playoffs and met them again in a non-playoff bowl. Because I’m not sure they get in. I suppose with the expanded playoff it’s possible though.

The aggy alumni thing says he was a student athlete. Guessing he played whatever sport for a season. He graduated in '81 with a geology degree from UT and in '85 I think with a MS petroleum engineering degree from UT. I know of his UT history because of the oil and gas industry (he founded Hilcorp). The UT department of petroleum engineering is named after him because of a large donation.

edit: I should have read the rest of the thread.

Richest guy in Houston...

Y'all are putting way too much thought into this. Graham is just like all aggy writers. He is a propagandist and recruiter for them. I hope no one is giving him clicks other than the poor bastard who has to find his stuff and post it here.

But then again, maybe we should financially support him and promote his writings. Let the Kool-Aid keep flowing. That is why the roller coaster exists, after all.

This Graham guy has to be the illegitimate son of $$$ Bill Byrne
I mean that article reads almost as crazy as the $$$Bill weekly emails from 02-09
 

He was probably raised on those emails

To meet aggy in the playoffs in that situation, aggy would have to:

1) Make the playoffs

-- and -- 

2) Win a 1st-round playoff game.  

If you think there's a possible way for both of those things to happen, you might be:

Beating Michigan on the road is really no different than beating Vanderbilt.   I read that somewhere...

I'm sure he meant it as a compliment, you know, since Vanderbilt has historically beaten Texas...Though you can't say the same for Michigan.

I believe he was referring to a rematch with Michigan.

Regarding that, the Top 12 often has some 3 and even 4 loss teams.  I realize there is a placeholder for a lower tier team, but I don't see it as impossible for Michigan to make the playoffs.  Whether we'd face them or not, I have no idea.

For those who check on this thread for football team info, I've C&P'd their snapcount data through the first two games. A few notes below:

-They benched Bryce Anderson as a starter. He could be starting at Texas but had to get that $250k bag while forgoing his future earning potential. Get fucked, dummy. 

-Shanahan was forced to play snaps at C while not being listed there. They have since announced that Erb, who is 6'7", will be the back-up C going forward. They worked Dewberry at C during practices last week and he was a disaster. 

-Speaking of Dewberry, he barely got snaps in garbage time against McNeese State. He can get fucked as well. 

-Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy, all 5 stars of his fat ass, got a whopping 7 snaps against McNeese State. There are multiple walk-ons on the DL who got more snaps.

-This is a reminder that the rankings of GBD, Doooby Doooby Dew, Shanahan, and Anderson all factor into the lazy 247 "talent composite index" or whatever the fuck it is called. 

-Some WR from Troy that they were all knob-slobbing in the spring until he got hurt came back and played 8 irrelevant snaps.

-Bussey played a bunch. Tarp reports that they're only comfortable with jet sweeps and reverses for him at WR. Apparently, he's just running around on routes and not usually where he is supposed to be and they don't trust him yet. The guy is talented and this was game 2, so I assume he's actually going to get better and play more. 

-Starting WR Walker broke a finger early in the game and played one snap. The Elk lied about his status after the game and said he could have returned. "All Day" Jahdae is kind of needed this week, so I'm going to be entertained when he's in street clothes on the sidelines. 

-Scooby Williams, the terrible but needed starting LB, didn't suit out. The Elk attempted to downplay how badly he's hurt, but couldn't confirm that he'd be ready for SEC play. 

-Elko won't let reporters say anything definitively about injuries, even season-enders, so enjoy that skirting from Tarp in the write-up.

Also, I've said this was going to be a bad team all offseason for reasons that are playing out and can be seen in the snapcounts. The JAGger Index for this team is through the fucking roof.

What adult has college bedding? Kids? ok.  Adults? fuck no. Guest room? Only if in laws are from a rival school and you know it pisses them off.

Go check the AirBnB listings in College Station. I bet most of them have that bedding.

Thanks. 
The base is ausubo wood my dad salvaged 70 years ago from the renovation of a 350 year old Spanish Colonial building within the grounds of El Morro fortress in San Juan, Puerto Rico. 
He had several lamp bases made out of one beam, and I inherited this one and added the glass shade after VY’s 4th & 5. 
The old wood is very dense & heavy, looks kinda like mahogany in appearance.

This is gonna seem weird since I'm not an 80 yo woman, but I've always had a thing for Tiffany style lamps. My grandma had a huge one with a heavy bronze "tree trunk" base and I always thought the multicolor glass panels were awesome

Aggy at Gator. Who do you have winning this week?

 

I ask because I'm in a weekly pick'em contest at work and this game is on the list. I know Gator is not very good this year. It doesn't appear aggy is much better. I'm leaning Gator because aggy hasn't play very well on the road the last couple of years.

Aggies on the road vs. Napier on the sideline… it’s tough. 

I feel like even Napier isn’t stupid enough not to play Lagway and that he could make enough plays to beat the offensive dynamo from The Station. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking.

I dont see how a 4 loss regular season P4 team could make the playoffs, but I guess it could be possible every 5 years or so.
