    Yeah but the potential problem with this happens when the regular season champ has a good record but loses the CCG to a team with a lesser record (like last year when Clemson snuck in) and suddenly that league gets two bids ... in basketball we call 'em "bid thieves" for a reason Say BYU goes undefeated and then loses the CCG ... what then, for example? Would they get left out at 12-1 with a regular season championship while a 9-3 team goes?

    One more ... Miami has the same 6-2 record as Notre Dame and Miami beat Notre Dame head-to-head yet Miami is ranked 8 spots lower than ND.

    I grew up in the Carolinas with an 8 team ACC, only one of which was passably good at football. When Miami and FSU joined everyone assumed they would dominate in football every year but that didn't happen. With Clemson also having a down year no one respects the ACC and rightly so.

    Thanks! Really liked the breakdown beginning at the 9:10 mark where Arch goes to his 4th read (and Wisner makes a terrific block on pass protect). Totally different QB play than earlier in the season. Hope he has that much time against Georgia.

    Oklahoma short shorts with the codpiece was funny ...

    Honestly that would not be a bad result for us, to finish 10-2 and be a lock for the playoffs as probably a top 6 or so seed, but get to skip the conference championship game against another top team. Rest up, get/stay healthy and prepare for what's coming. It would of course be an honor to win the SEC championship but the eyes of Texas are on a bigger prize.

    Yep, but I've watched three games on YouTube pirate sites this season (including last week's against Mississippi State) and the quality is good. There was only one interruption. YouTube doesn't seem to be very aggressive about removing them for some reason. This is far better than the scam pirate sites that set off alarms on my anti-virus and uBlock Origin apps or extensions. I'll be watching the Vandy game on ABC since I still have cable.

    Would certainly be nice, but Caldwell's lack of success with the long ball means the Vandy safeties don't have to play as deep, which could slow down our run game, right?

    I'm guessing he self-negotiated the largest buyout in the history of AD buyouts for himself ...

    And then there's this soiree "tailgate" the night before the game, held at the Governor's Mansion and featuring the University President, the Chancellor and the Chairman of the BOR. Unfortunately I cannot make it but I'd sure like to discuss Sark's flirtation with the NFL if I could LOL

    They just announced it will be delayed 3 weeks ... NCAA delays rule change allowing athletes to bet on pro sports (ESPN)

    Kudos for the expression "loathed nepo baby" LOL

    I just checked the ESPN box score and Shapen is credited with 2 fumbles, one lost that we recovered so pretty sure it was that last play - box score here

    Ryan Niblett is now leading the nation in punt return average yardage (25.5 yards) and tied for second with 2 punt returns for TDs (leader, Vicari Swain, has 3).

    I would personally be OK adding Harlem Berry and/or Jaden Baugh, to round out the wish list

    There's a sportscaster known as Trey Wingo and we also have a Trey Moore playing for us, so I can see where the slip of the tongue keyboard might arise. But our Wingo is Ryan. Nits aside, another great write up, thanks for taking time to do these. Very enjoyable reliving the game thru the eyes of a fan in the stands.

    This got me wondering how well Sark did when we was an OC for the Falcons. From a Wiki article (I'm too lazy to fact check it but sounds roughly right): (quote) On February 7, 2017, Sarkisian was hired as offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons, taking over for the recently departed Kyle Shanahan who left to become the head coach of the 49ers. The offense's scoring output, under his guidance, dropped from 33.8 points per game (leading the NFL in 2016) to 22.1 points per game in 2017. In 2018, the offense's scoring improved to 25.9 points per game. On December 31, 2018, he was fired as offensive coordinator. (/quote) Hey, Texas Ex Kyle Shanahan for our next head coach! LOL

    BTW I saw this X video in a story about Shohei Ohtani's recent 3 homer / 10 strikeouts game. The article was comparing Ohtani's feat to the most impressive athletic feats in other sports and Vince's Rose Bowl game was judged the best single game performance by a player in college football history, given the rushing and passing stats, the two TD comeback in the last 6 minutes (Vince had 125 yards in the last two possessions) and the championship game setting. Anyway, enjoy reliving the memory before our game tomorrow 🙂

    Seems like a good thread to drop this X memory - the most fun I've had as a Longhorn fan
  22. ArizonaLonghorn
    Was that the castration game? LOL
  23. ArizonaLonghorn
    Purely coincidence that this drops the night after the NBA opens a new season, right? No one is talking about Wemby's great game or VJ Edgecombe scoring the most points for a rookie in his opener since Wilt Chamberlain or ...

    Big 12 calling on line 1 Mr. Williamson ...

    From ESPN article yesterday "Dolphins' Mike McDaniel sticking with Tua Tagovailoa as QB1": "Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will remain the team's starter, coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Monday, despite the worst statistical two-game stretch of his career. " Link So unless there was a change of heart a day later Quinn is still # 2 per ESPN
