  1. Past hour
  2. Thinking of an 8-4 team in the playoffs disgusts me. It really does. I do not give one rat’s behind about the fans of 8-4 teams being engaged at the end of the season, even if those are Texas fans. Teams that have separated themselves as more than mediocre are the ones that deserve a shot at the end of the season. 8-4 is mediocre. It just is
  3. Hope he runs all over kiffins defenses.
  4. Yes he is! Helps Juluke too! Glad LSU didn’t keep him.
  5. Turnout should improve with local fans on holiday break next week.
  6. He’s going to be a pain in Lane’s ass for years to come 🤣
  7. Sounds like BYU made him a higher offer and Texas didn't match it (was the impression I got from this site)
  8. Also honoring the Ohio State and Michigan games mainly because we already played them at their campus.
  9. Add whoever plays ND
  10. Given Wingos drops and body language on the sideline it’s a stretch to consider him a #1. Hopefully we make a move and get a legit #1.
  11. I agree there is a point where playoff expansion can go too far, where we may differ is not on whether expansion is warranted, but on scale. Given the number of teams there are in Division 1 college football, disparities in schedule difficulty across teams/conferences, and the role of a selection committee, a 24-team playoff strikes a reasonable balance. More outcomes would be decided on the field, rather than in the committee room. Teams just outside the cutoff of a 24 team format would still object, but the risk of excluding a legitimate championship contender is lower than in the current 12-team format. Regarding college basketball, its regular season may suffer from factors beyond just playoff size—most notably a 30-plus game regular season schedule that dilutes the importance of individual games. That dynamic doesn’t exist in a 12-game football season played once a week, where each result carries real consequence. Talent continuity also matters: college basketball’s one-and-done model has weakened team identity and overall quality of play, gradually eroding fan interest. College football, by contrast, retains most elite talent for multiple seasons and benefits from being the nation’s dominant sport, which sustains engagement throughout the regular season. Given football’s cultural prominence, there is less risk that a 24-team playoff would diminish regular season interest. In fact, it could increase engagement, as more fan bases would remain invested longer, with more teams realistically in contention for a playoff spot.
  12. FINAL: Texas 95, Le Moyne 53 The Longhorns improve to 8-4 on the season.
  13. Six Longhorns in double figures tonight after Wilcher gets there with a pair of free throws.
  14. Almost up 40 with 5:00 to go. Never heard of this opponent before. Texas has dominated the second half.
  15. I hope they both lose by double digits. Their QBs will turn it over if they get pressed into playing from behind.
  16. We ever figure out what happened with Lefau?
