So, sometimes you get smack talk in this post. Sometimes you get talk of beatings we are going to lay down. Sometimes you get hype.  Occasionally, you get nerves and excitement. This time, something d

“Might be our easiest conference win” is what it will be. This is the worst team in the conference by a wide margin. They just lost at home by double digits to the second worst team. Only UH is as bad

My dad worked for TI and I spent MANY hours playing all the games on the TI 99/4A that we got for free. 

Same! My dad was at the plant on 183. He actually worked as part of the group that created the first microprocessor. Pretty wild. We had TI computer equipment and calculators all over the house.

I need a Jomboy style lip reading. Pretty sure I saw "are we ready to fucking go" and "fuck these motherfuckers" in couple of spots. 

End of the clip is "fuck these motherfuckers. It don't matter who the fuck we play"

They are certainly saying all the right stuff about Ewers. I see the sides to both arguments, but I think you play him if he feels good and the medical staff gives the thumbs up. If he was truly practicing today, even if it was in a limited capacity, that tells me he is pretty far along from when the injury occurred. I doubt they would let him do much, if any, rotational work if they were concerned about aggravating the abdomen/oblique. 

I am not a big fan of holding guys out who would be playing if it was a "bigger game". You are also talking about a guy who has now missed a game for the 3rd straight season and I think there is some value in him showing he can rebound quickly. The re-injury risk is a concern, but there are a million things injury-related that could happen in a football game that could be bad for him and are just as likely to happen against OU as against Mississippi State. If the trainers feel like it is healed, he can't get "extra healed".

Of course, it would be great if he was only needed for 2.5 quarters if he does play.

TI did not make the shitty TRS-80. How dare you. That was a Radio Shack product. TI made the TI 99/4A, which was a badass computer for its time, with the world's first speech recognition software and 3D first-person adventure game. Unfortunately its storage was relegated to a series of insertable memory expanders that was the size of a small file cabinet and weighed 50 pounds. Still I wasted many many many hours of my youth playing Parsec and Tunnels of Doom on that glorious TI 99/4A. 
I also created a pong knockoff for the TRS80 for a science fair but no one recognized my genius. RIP to the computer science nerds of 80s middle school. 

I wrote a program on my ti 99/4A that would calculate some dungeons and dragons shit that was a pita to fill in on your character sheet.

Yes I was/am that big of a dork. I can’t believe I just admitted to that.

Finally got a chance to sit down and watch today's presser. Sark is pumped as fuck, you can tell he knows this team could do something extraordinary. emoji869.png

Truth. You can tell he's confident of a strong possibility of a 16 or 17 game season.

Treat it like the 2nd preseason NFL game, where the starting QB gets 2 series, maybe the 1Q, just to shake the rust off and then get him the fuck out.

Arkansas' first game as a member of the SEC was against The Citadel and they lost. Their first conference game was against South Carolina who was also having their first SEC conference game.

So the pigs can fuck off.

The "SEC is a grind" and "every game is physical" has now turned into "Texas plays such an easy SEC schedule." 

This is why nobody likes these insufferable SEC pricks. You dumbasses have been arguing for years that the reason the SEC is so tough is that even the bottom feeders are good.

I mean we did get a pretty soft SEC schedule you can't really deny that.

I would put Ark, OU, & A&M all in the 8-10 range in the conference

Miss St, Florida, Vandy, & Kentucky all slot in the 12-16 range

Now with that said if anyone thinks Ole Miss, Tenner, & Mizzou would be in the top 6 in normal years they would be lying.

I'm sure when the 2026 schedule drops we will get some mix of Bama, LSU, Tenner, Ole Miss, & Mizzou but odds are 2-3 of those teams will be middling by then so the narrative will repeat especially if we have won the conference either this year or next.

Certainly this year we have a clear cut top 6, a clear cut bottom 6, and a middle of the pack turd sandwich 4 that are not even remotely intimidating.

Our SEC schedule has only gotten weaker since preseason and it wasn't the toughest to start.

This.  The bottom 7 teams might combine for 13-14 conference wins, and that's mostly because they have to play each other.

There is a reason certain SEC schools are reluctant to move to 9 conference games (in addition to all the other TV money stuff). It takes away an extra non-conference win (probably their November FCS opponent) and schools that would normally ride the SEC coattails to a "respectable" 7-5 season or bowl eligibility on the backs of 3-1 or 4-0 non-conference slates are now missing bowls.

Can we not do the stupid shit with names like “Tenner”? All of the dumb SEC nicknames reek of SEC Rant and idiocy.

Everyone here did. 

It’s fantastic, really. The murmurs of Texas getting unfairly favored are growing. Fuck all of those whiners.
