@Scipioand myself are proud to be the official mortgage sponsor of Surly. We have done free money giveaways for the NCAA tournament, playoff baseball, and now have added a football component to the free cash giveaway. 

Here is how this giveaway will work: Every week we will have a post asking for your game prediction, giving you a prop bet, and a chance to weigh in on anything related to the game, opponent or game week.

$50.00 to the winner of the game score contest. (Winner and score for the week)

$25.00 to the winner of the prop bet (Will change every week)

$25.00 to the post of the week (funniest story, best trash talk, best analysis on what ended up happening during the game, or post that best captures the Surly Zeitgeist of the week)

I'm the judge of all the winners.  My tie breakers for the score contest and/or prop bet contest will be whoever I thought had the best overall post. 

We will have a sticky on the top of the board honoring those who won throughout the season that will get updated throughout the season with the winners and the best content.  The overall winner of the most weekly cash for the year will win an additional $250.00, two tickets to the Burnt Endz dinner, and eternal bragging rights. Anyone not wanting to claim their money can donate it to the wreath fund or Burnt Endz.  All money will be paid at the end of the season.

As with all our giveaways it's the same- free to enter- no purchase necessary, we hope this will be fun.  If you would like to support us as we try to support the community we would love to help you with any mortgage need you might have.  Feel free to PM me or call me at 832-557-1095 if you have a mortgage question or need. We've helped a lot of Longhorns with their home loans as it's a community we truly love.     

 

The prop bet for the week is how many total yards from scrimmage will Bijan Robinson have- rushing and receiving?

Score Prediction: Texas 52 v ULM 13

Prop Bet:  Bijan- 197 yards total offense- 47 rushing 150 passing.

True story- this week, I'm sitting by myself at a table at the Chinese Buffet in Humble Texas minding my own business, literally sitting with my head down looking at my phone and eating, while listening to Bobby Burton and Gerry Hamilton on their Youtube video talk about Ewers being named starter.  All of sudden I hear someone yell- fuck you mother fucker. I look around.  This sociopath is yelling at me. I look at him, completely confused.  Yeah you- cover your mouth when you fucking cough or I'm going to go over there and shut your fucking mouth for you.  He's screaming at the top of his lungs.  It's really weird, because he's sitting at a table with his 55 year old mom and dad, who don't look at him, talk to him, look at me, or do anything but continue to eat. I'm sitting at least 20 feet away.  By myself.  Didn't even know I coughed- not like I was sick or anything. One of the most bizarre experiences of my life.  How is this topical?  They were all wearing windbreakers and LSU hats on a 94 degree 82% humidity day in Houston.  The town is overrun with people that never left after Katrina.  I love visiting that state.  The food is awesome.  The party atmosphere is amazing.  The debauchery is off the hook.  But every time I go there I get the feeling I'm in a third world country.  Partying with LSU fans in Omaha?  Awesome.  Having 20k of them descend on Austin?  Not so great.  I look forward to beating their ass once we join the SEC. In the meantime I guess we will have to take out the trash and beat up on their regarded wimpy cousin that ever so much wanted to go to LSU but couldn't pass the 3rd grade proficiency test that 7 out of 10 LSU students use to get admitted to school there.  Beat ULM.  First game of the rest of the season.  Can't hardly wait.

I should note this is just like last year: the normal game week thread. Please post any thoughts you have on the game to come or any news, notes or whatever like you would a normal game week thread. It doesn't have to be a story or anything like that- meant to be a normal conversation with normal game week posts- it's just this year we will also be paying money to the best score, prop bets and posts in thread.

UT - 48 and ULM - 17.
B. Rob. - 153 rushing on 7 rushes + 46 rec = 199.

I lived in SW Louisiana for roughly 12 years and I’d agree on a majority of the above. Most of the LSU alums that I dealt with were in the medical field, so they did have a form of “balance” to them. When I first moved there in the mid to late ‘90s their FB program was a hot mess! At least they had their Spring, with “Skip Ball” to look forward to.

Hook’em!

Texas 38 ULM 17

Bijan 95 yards rushing 31 yards receiving. He doesn't play in the 2nd half. Sark doesn't run it up against bowden and keeps almost everything in the playbook for Bama. Let's ewers and the recievers work out some kinks in the 2nd.

Texas 60 - ULM 24

ULM gave up 59 points twice last season to G5 teams and 55 to Kentucky.  Texas puts up 60 unless Sark shuts things down in the 2nd quarter.  ULM puts up 24 easy but is demoralized by the second half and is just looking to run clock.

Bijan 167 yards (136 rushing - 31 receiving) in two quarters of action.

42-17 Texas

Bijan goes 17/210, 300 all purpose yards and 3 TDs in a half.  

 

I've got a boy in private school and a baby girl on the way. Not saying I'm at "I'll suck yo dick for a cheeseburger!" level yet but I'm about to start taking up wet work as a revenue stream.

Wait until you hear that the winner or loser of OU game week gets/has to go in the RV to the OSU game week and recreate that photo. 

See above post.

I'm not saying I'd storm the field naked, man boobs and all, to avenge 3's place for best mullet of the Southwest as I take a machete to Gundy's scalp. But FAAFO...

Ok Wulaaaaw Hooolaaaw Horn, You tell a pretty good story sir, but grab a plate and accept your fate.

 

My name’s Tex, and it might be a sin, but I’ll take your bet; you’re gonna regret ‘cause I’m the best there’s ever been.  

 

Let me tell you all a little true story that happened this week.  

 

My family and I are sitting at this run down dive buffett place down South minding our own business.  Literally just trying to choke down this garbage food, when all the sudden my son yell’s out “fuck you mother fucker”.  Now my family has had a damn long day and now we are having to deal with this slop food and this one guy at a table across the way is sitting there coughing up a pandemic with no care in the world.  

 

Just from the look on this guy's face I know he thinks my son is a sociopath, and to tell you the truth at this point in the day I can’t really blame the guy.  My son yells out “cover your mouth when you fucking cough or I’m going to go over there and shut your fucking mouth for you.”  It’s embarrassing because my son is screaming this at the top of his lungs.  My wife and I are stunned and just sitting there staring at this giant plate of bullshit food hoping to make it through dinner without some major issue.  

 

This dude is like 20 feet or so away with his face buried in his phone like a teenage school girl just minding his own business and I doubt he even knew he was coughing up a pandemic.  He had snot and mucus dripping from his nose and mouth like a leaking faucet.  Every time he coughed he was showering the area in this disgusting combination of germs and slim.  

 

I’m certain he thought we were crazy. We were all wearing these ridiculous LSU windbreakers and matching Tiger caps.  You see it was my mother in laws (crazy ass bitch) birthday and she has always been a die hard Tiger fan so my wife gets this fucking nut idea to go around to her favorite all time places and take a family photo dressed as LSU fans.  Crazy ass shit right? But what do you do?..................Well anyway it's hotter than hell’s ass, I’m trying to eat this slop food, and I got this stiff over here coughing like he is trying to contaminate the whole state of Texas.  

 

My son has lost his freaking mind. He absolutely hates Lousianna and everything it stands for.  The food there is worse than this slop bucket we are eating right now and the party atmosphere there is dog shit boring.  The state has a reputation of off the hook debauchery but I myself find it overrun with religion and revival.  Every time I go visit my crazy ass mother in law, I am treated like a king and feel like I have entered the mecha of royalty.  However, parting with LSU fans in Omaha that year my son played them in the college world series was terrible.  Worst fans in the world but when 20k of them came to Austin for that game a few years back I found them quite enjoyable.  

 

I worry about playing them once we join the SEC. I have watched Brian Kelly dance with his recruits and I know we are in trouble.  In the meantime I guess I can find solace in beating up on their little brother ULM who truly is the power school of Lousianna.  

 

Oh yeah, that dude at the table…. Come to find out he is some big shot lawyer or mortgage dude from Austin and rumor has it he has a TikTok addiction and the only Dr in the Country that can treat him has an office in Humble Texas of all places.  Wait staff at that slop buffett say he comes in two or three times a week just to get away and sits for hours at his table, nose buried in his phone watching TikTok like a fourteen year old school girl.  


 

Beat ULM. First game of the rest of the season I can't wait.

 

Texas 58

ULM 17

Texas 31 ULM 21

Bijan 98 yards rushing 28 receiving. total 126. 

 

its not a Louisianna story, hell it isnt even a recent story, but it kinda is a surly story that i was reminded of because earlier in the week was the 33rd anniversary of Ryan striking out his 5,000 batter (Ricky freaking Henderson of all people).

so my dads older sister was married to one of the most hard core Dallas area sports fanatics of all time. He took my dad to all the Cowboys home games in the Cotton Bowl in the early 60's stayed hard core blue throughout his life. loved the Rangers even though they sucked for like 95% of their entire existence during his life. 

My Uncle was a SPORTS NUT.  Meanwhile, my Aunt, lovely woman, paid absolutely zero attention to sports. She thought you could score a TD in basketball and get called offsides in baseball if there were too many players in the outfield.  She understood the terms,  Home Run is good, Strikeout is bad.  TD is good, Interception is bad.. but thats pretty much the extent of her sports understanding.

So 1989 was pre-sports radio, but all the local channels were doing the countdown to Ryan getting his 5,000th K.  It was commonly talked about on regular radio shows, so my aunt kind of understood this was going to happen.

then it finally happens and its all anyone can talk about , and the next day my aunt and uncle go to dinner with several friends and of course the 5,000th K story is talked about, and finally my aunt has had enough.  She verbally explodes, "This is SO UNKIND! Why are you all making fun of a man for striking out 5,000 times?  I am SURE he was trying to hit the ball"

everyone is stunned. Everyone (but my Uncle) thought she was joking... Uncle being the hard ass texan he was, is laughing his ass off and says something like "woman, hes a pitcher, he stuck out 5k batters- hes not a damn batter!

  turned out, she understood that striking out was bad. And the idea of the person pitching the strikeouts never occured to her. so she was positive that all of Dallas was making fun of Nolan Ryan striking out at the bat 5,000 times.....

That is a great story. 
you must burn in hell for predicting a 10 point victory with Bijan under 100.
