All Activity

Just got back to my hotel outside Baton Rouge. Here’s 22 quick takes in honor of 22 points. Just like last week, I kept each thought to a sentence or shorter. Hope you enjoy! 1.) Not to be corny, but Texas fight was on full display. 2.) Special teams were very special on Saturday night. 3.) Death Valley is the loudest sports environment I’ve ever been in. 4.) Jelani McDonald, take a bow! 5.) Arch Manning is the first QB to throw three interceptions in a win over an AP-ranked team since … Colt McCoy in Texas’ Big 12 Championship win over Nebraska. 6.) Texas should rest Cam Coleman for the next few weeks and get him fully ready for the playoff. 7.) Felt like Texas didn’t commit to the run enough at times. 8.) More Michael Terry III carries please. 9.) Raleek Brown continues to show up in big moments. 10.) LSU fans do not like Sam Leavitt. 11.) Didn’t love the deep shots to Emmett Mosley, at least in that situation. 12.) I thought Ryan Wingo was underutilized tonight, but still had six grabs, including a crucial catch on the game-winning drive. 13.) Lane Kiffin went conservative, paving the way for the Texas comeback. 14.) Justin Cryer powering through the game after getting injured is an underrated storyline, as he’s the green dot on defense. 15.) LSU has playmakers at WR and TE, and Texas adjusted nicely to takeaway the easy throws in the second half. 16.) Texas’ pass rush made Sam Leavitt very uncomfortable all night. 17.) Weekly Rasheem Biles shout out. 18.) Awesome to see Colin Simmons play the full game, tallying 8 tackles, including half a tackle for a loss. 19.) Need to watch the game again, but the OL actually held up pretty well all things considered. 20.) LSU is probably the best defense Texas will see the rest of the season depending on if UT faces off with Georgia in the SEC Championship or the CFP. 21.) Texas all but punched their CFP ticket if you ask me — five wins over ranked teams this season. 22.) It wasn’t pretty but Arch got the most important stat of all on Saturday — a W.

I was not following this thread throughout the game because there are so many idiots on these threads. While I may get frustrated during the games with how close they are, I looked at the rest of my family half way through the 4th quarter and told all of them that UT would win and that it would be 23-21. I was wrong. Only because we smartly decided to kneel on the extra point. Some of the "Fans" need to check themselves. It would take way too much work to go back through and screenshot all of the idiots who badmouthed Sark and Arch and then were out of their minds excited that we won. It wasn't perfect. It was stressful. But, my God, it's ridiculous how insane some of you are.

Elko said “hold my my milkshake”

So the only way Texas gets in the CG is win out and for LSU wins out, dropping Tennessee to 3 losses, knocking them out and hurting Bama since they lost to them. If the favorites win out it's Bama, and if LSU loses to Tennessee and they win out, then it's Tennessee? How would that be possible when we hold a head-to-head win at their place?

Oh btw 5-0 against ranked opponents this year. Now we just need to put a beat down on some piggies and gaggies.

I need to play this like 100 times because I still can't believe we just won that game.

For me, just finish the regular season 10-2 and guarantee your spot in the dance. Let the other team's performances and CFP committee sort the rest out. Regardless of the postseason path, Texas just needs to find ways to win. If they end up playing Georgia in Atlanta, go win the game. If they don't so be it. This national championship race is wide open. Even Georgia, as good as they look at the moment, can be had with the proper gameplan and execution. Ask Auburn. Just win baby!

And yet despite those great performances, the defense gave the O a chance in both of those games to win and they didn't. So yeah we were due. Just wish it would've been in one of those important games lol.

Dynamite hire tickle me Elko. What I don’t hate is all this after a playoff appearance a year ago. Hopefully we can get after them in CS! Let’s go hard the last 13 days of the regular season and finish this mother f’er 10-2!

The matchup changes based on the result(s) of even one game Favorites Win If Tennessee loses to LSU If LSU goes full quit watch and loses to Arkansas and tenn. and t With all the tiebreakers etc the matchup is very much in flux, even missouri/ou outcome could change the matchup in Atlanta

.

Amen to that. Glass Houses.

Prolly was quiet as can be with 3 seconds left in the fourth quarter

By a wide mile and Elko mentioned that as well. Hart would get killed behind that OL, Reed can at least attempt to make an off-schedule play, Hart has no chance. If Hart really played our game, aggy might not cross midfield unless we turned it over or our punter punted. Our DL would also tee off on their running game.

Yet somehow we are 8-2 and almost certainly going to the playoffs

I know we are in the NIL era and they are handing out a lot of money for their top recruiting class……but not sure how I can be an offense recruit and sign up for that when the head coach is saying their offense is inept and non-functional. Add in a bunch of people are about to lose their job on that side of the ball and I’m looking for greener pastures.

Lane sounds a little defensive.

I said after his pregame interview he looked worried. Never seen him look, speak, and act that way before a game.

Loudest stadium I've been to.

I think Wade is incredibly overrated. I don’t understand why LSU went through this circus when they hired him, but I guess LSU enjoys circuses.

ok lane you got given 50 million dollars

Who had Texas Losing? Walk of shame

I will say this. If the committee holds true to their 1st two weeks, I fully expect Texas to pass Alabama next week, especially if Arizona beats Utah. We will be in the same pod with them and the resume aren't even close any more. 5-0 against Top 25 teams. Texas beat Alabama @Tenn, Alabama was embarrassed. I truly think the committee thought we would lose tonight and didn't want to put Texas too far into the Top 10 so they could drop us out to the borderline with 3-losses. 1 - Georgia 2 - Utah 3 - Texas 4/5/6 - UCLA/Alabama/ND in any order 7 - Miami 8 - Indiana 9 - Tennessee 10 - BYU If Utah loses they will fall to the back half of the Top 10 especially with UH likely dropping out of the Top 25 alltogether. That was horrible loss for Fritz and the Coogs, and they are likely going to get embarrassed again next weekend at WVU.
