Texas vs. Arkansas - 11:00am on ABC

[campcrunk 2398]

I just wanted to pop in to say that the "catch" that helped put Arky in field goal range with about a minute left in the 3rd was an incomplete pass. Pretty clearly trapped it with the ground

This is the internet. A lot of stupid shit is uttered, including by me at times.  I’ll take my negs like a man.  Now, you can go back to the cloak room to continue your whining. 

Wishing for an injury on the QB1 of your own team is bottom-of-the-barrel stuff. But then again, your posting history shows you've always been happy wallowing in the slime and muck. Hell, your avatar alone reflects that, so congrats on owning the fact you're fucking sleazebag.

We would beat fOSU

Barron would pick off Howard 8 times 

That would probably be a record or something.

Barron could do it, and then on his 9th and 10th and he can toss it back to Mukuba and Taaffee

Exactly. Now it's just time to laugh at other teams.

Man, could yall imagine this place if we lost??? The Good Guys are 9-1. Do yall remember when we celebrated being bowl eligible? This has been a great run for the last two years. 
In the spirit of the upcoming holidays, can we let whomever said whatever go, minus wanting QE hurt? We got the W at Arky which is hard to do. 
Our future is in our hands. Do we all not realize that we will likely be going to the SEC championship game in our first year? Then onwards to CFP glory and I know typing that will bring out the buts, buts, buts people. 
Let’s enjoy this for a couple of fucking hours, JFC.

Watching Aggy cry at how we ruined this conference in year once since we came in and made the CCG in year one.

I disagree. No angle showed definitively that the ball touched the ground, let alone that it moved.

There just wasn't enough to over turn the call.  If it had been called incomplete on the field, it would have held up under review as such.

I’ll take a ten point win on road against Arky while kneeling in scoring position all day long.  Ewers needs to play a little better

I think review showed closer to a catch than a non catch.  50-50 it gets called a catch if ruled incomplete on field.

The purpose of the game thread is to exist in a free-flow state of emotional exposure. Without context. Without superego. No past and no future. Only the present.

It is our true state.

[gmr548 16552]

Any road conference win is a good win. I tend to think the defense played really well and was getting worn down by the second half. Really felt like Texas was gonna fuck around and blow it there in the late third/early fourth but credit to the offense for stepping up when they absolutely had to. I believe if Texas doesn't go down and score when they get the ball up 13-10, Arkansas wins the game.

Ewers, I mean, it is what it is. Think he played okay. Took care of the ball and hit on some really nice short/intermediate throws. Also had some self sacks that were big setbacks and missed Helm on that slant that should have been 20-0. The deep balls are head scratchers. He is worse than 2022 somehow. Sark's clearly not going to make a change at this point but there's no way this team wins a title when defenses don't have to take the vertical passing game remotely seriously.

Feeling pretty zen about it honestly. Let's just go beat aggy. 11-1 with a 3-0 record against OU, piglets, and aggy all away from home would be a categorical success.

Was nice to see the offense be able to run the ball to ice the game

The run game worked pretty well except where Sark was getting really predictable with it on first down. Both Ewers sacks were primarily on him and he didn't have a ton of pressure in his face all day. Think the OL had a pretty good day today.

Give Helm some slack. He rarely, if ever, drops passes. I can forgive him. 

Sure enough…but, Sark needs Helm to be getting 6-10 passes….when we do hat, it makes the others more productive.

All of this. Double digit win on the road vs a conference opponent is greatness and even better vs them. They lost their Super Bowl. 

[Dbeasy 15007]

I’m happy with the win but let’s not punch the sec title game ticket just yet. Aggies (or Kentucky) could beat us and replace us in that game, which would suck. 

Texas needs to figure out how to impose their will on other teams, instead of relying on precise execution to score all the time.

Kentucky's defense is pretty good but their offense is dog shit. One of the worst we've faced all year. 

Kentucky hasn't scored more than 20 against a SEC opponent all year. 

Do NOT overlook KY…..and aggy better not overlook Auburn….one game at a time.  We can’t let down now.

I mean we generally score if we don’t fuck ourselves with a massive negative play or a critical penalty. 
 

If we just don’t fuck up, we score most of the time.

Called us Texas a&m once and Tennessee once that I caught.  Too busy thinking about his stupid bachelor show to make production meetings probably.

I caught the Tennessee on Goldens second touchdown.

We have new, much better problems now.

Omw back from a post-game dinner in Fayetteville and fuck that was a lot better as a winner than loser. Shitload of Texas fans in attendance.

Sorry to disappoint the olds in here that remember the vitriol of the 70s or whatever, but the trip was fine. The town is cool, leaving AR with a golden sun was pretty damn impressive. Didn't have a single Razorback talk a single word of shit to me all game. Plenty of Horns down in the stadium, even t-shirts of that bullshit, but the worst reaction I got was an Arky fan leaving the game with his middle fingers up as we held the Horns high. The walk in and out was quiet as shit. They aren't bred to hate us in our face anymore.

I am soooo disappointed in the offense,  I mean Arky had the worst secondary.  But I'll take a win over a loss. Thanks D for playing great

 

I was here by the end of the of the game. We watched the 1st half at home...

Now, go wash those icy whites and put them back in the freezer….we will need again in two weeks.

The 3 safety defense really is Sark’s kryptonite. I don’t understand why but his offense can’t figure it out to pull away in games.

Run the ball consistently well. Until we do, that's what we get.

I'd step on grandma for one of them 230lb backs that pig has (and doesn't use correctly).  Love Baby Rhino but he's only 205.

I thought he was around 225 the way everyone was talking about him at the beginning of the year.

I enjoy the surly gaslighting after a sloppy win like this. Everyone and their momma knew if Quinn played the 4thQ like he did the rest of the game, we were heading towards a loss. He put together a nice drive and attempted to truck a third string Hog DB. Cool. This season is what it is. I’ll tag along.
