I'd rather stay behind Georgia until they come to Austin.  Same way I felt about being behind SC in 05.  I'd rather have something to prove than something to defend.

You say a lot of stupid shit and you do it at a rapid, voluminous rate. You’re like a shit howitzer, just fucking blasting the board with constant bullshit.

The checked teams would be credible wins, but the unchecked teams could drop out of or to the bottom of the top 25 if they lose one game. It's a strange year. Only a few teams, including us, have been consistently good. I include Ole Miss because I think a win over them means more than their ranking indicates.

Agree with your overall point but not sure why you excepted ole miss.  They never wins anything of significance

I enjoy an aggy meltdown as much as anybody but the mental gymnastics they go through to prove is Texas is mid, hasn’t beaten anyone and will probably lose to aggy are something else. The polls are no doubt giving them fits.

When a team is much better than the other teams they play it looks like they haven't played anyone good.

In fairness, none of our opponents other than maybe CSU have anyone on their roster who can actually play quarterback.

Didn’t see and highlights of the miss state game with GA. Did they run or throw to get their 31 pts?

I’m not dogging our results at all. Just making an observation.

ULM is 5-1 

 


Their freshmen RB is someone we should lure to the portal

It’s not the most important statistic but weeks at number 1 in the AP is kind of a thing I’m glad to be racking up a few weeks this season. If I recall VY 05 was always 2nd?

Yep. Was never #1 in the AP poll until the last one.

Winsipedia tracks this as a relevant stat and will also show the dates in history in which the ranking occurred, for those interested in looking more closely.

Dumbasses. I am sure an armored regiment and an overflight of F-14's could make the AAC paper pushers think about it.

I think they’d probably use F-18 Super Hornets these days. Maverick and Goose ain’t walking through that door

All F-14s were trashed, save for a few gutted museum pieces, didn't want to allow a black market for their parts since the only other operator is Iran.

We got one back when Mav got that bag of ass airborne off a taxiway.

Just looking at this top 25, there really aren't that many somebodies you can play.

Why does ole miss mean more than their ranking? Because they beat furman, mid tenn st, wake, GA southern, and SC? Because they played an overrated LSU team close?

Fine, use the B model F-35. Don't care what they use, change the damn rules. Fly over it with some Corsairs. Still more firepower than the ACC.

I’ll tell you what, Diego Pavia can play quarterback.  The Vandy defense won’t stand up vs the Texasrunning game, much less Sark’s schemes and wizardry but Vandy is a better team, and a better coached team right now than several SEC teams and AP top 25 teams.  I’ll be glad to eat this post after the Horns win in Nashville by 24 or more.  First, neuter them Dawgs and their coach poaching coach.  These are some Vegas line beating Horns!  My guys are 85% out of it but have a prayer if there’s a rspid and major turnaround.

We have a lot of people who are going to get really scared about this game. Gonna need a mud hole post (and yeah- I know Georgia is too good for a traditionally mud hole post but we got one for Bama last year).

I thought we broke through to #1 one week, then went back. Am I making shit up?

One is coming. I thought about OU, but just couldn’t muster the personal concern. One is coming for this week, though. I’ve outlined the whines and rebuttals in my head already.

Remove the check. It's no matter to me. They just seem more formidable than the dog shit around them in the polls. Mebbe I'm wrong.

As I recall, that season USC and Texas went 1 and 2 wire to wire.  So the first, last, and only time Texas was #1, was in the final poll.

Yes. According to the AP. But, one week we jumped them in the BCS, and the media acted like we’d forced them to watch their daughter star in a snuff film.

Well remember, that 2005 USC team was considered one of the most formidable fighting forces in history, so of course they would be ranked #1 until VY brought the thunder. 

I still think they were the better team

I'd love to see him try to defend this. Or maybe he's just trying to give Finebaum an aneurysm

Or he’s trying to generate outrage and clicks. Wannabe contrarian dipshit. I love the look on Sarkisian’s face when this clown asks a question.
