  1. As we gird our loins !!
  2. Here's hoping tomorrow is Hammer Time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l80_R2HvXIU
  3. 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 ๐Ÿ™‚
  4. Seems like a good thread to drop this X memory - the most fun I've had as a Longhorn fan
  5. Was that the castration game? LOL
  6. 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 ...
  7. Big 12 calling on line 1 Mr. Williamson ...
  8. 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
  9. Nice write up as always. Thanks! Ryan Niblett is now the 2nd leading punt returner in college football with 21.6 yards/return. One tiny nit to pick - you wrote "5 Arch was sacked 5 times" in "Stats that Matter" summary but "officially, he was sacked 3 times" in the main body of the text. . The ESPN box score credits Kentucky with 3 sacks and the Texas D with 5 sacks, so guessing you mentally flipped those numbers, no biggie.
  10. One big media outlet had these five QBs as the best preseason bets to be taken in the first round of the 2026 draft (alphabetical order, with current ESPN passer rating) - Allar (136, # 11 B1G), Klubnik (142, # 10 ACC), Manning (150, # 10 SEC), Nussmeier (134, # 15 SEC), Sellers (147, # 12 SEC). Arch is the highest rated of these guys, # 47 nationally.
  11. Absolutely, 100x over for the first one ... As for the 2nd one ... I can see it both ways - easier route to a better record if we schedule say Rutgers or Northwestern as our Big 10 matchup (but probably not Maryland LOL), but as a fan I say play one of these historically elite opponents every year possible just for the spectacle of it. If we are afraid of losing then I think we have a different problem.
  12. Personally I haven't been this worried about A&M snatching a DB since they stole Denver Harris from us ...
  13. Yep, you did. He left the team in early September. From Sept 10 on Bama247 - https://247sports.com/college/alabama/article/second-year-alabama-receiver-no-longer-with-program-253774296/ Redshirt freshman wide receiver Aeryn Hampton is no longer with Alabama, coach Kalen DeBoer confirmed Wednesday. DeBoer said Hampton has not been with the team since early in fall camp. Hampton was listed on Alabama's Week 1 roster but was not spotted in pregame warmups at Florida State. He was not listed on the Week 2 roster for ULM.
  14. Arizona's finest (even if he is from Tucson LOL)
  15. Good (brief) interview with Emma Halter after the Bama game (ESPN) https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/46575065
  16. 6-6 is not out of the question. Better than 8-4 would mean only 2 more losses and that would be tough to reach with their run game.
  17. Just wondering if anyone else got invited to the slightly more sophisticated "Tailgate" held at the Discovery Gardens at Fair Park, or if closetojumping and myself were the only ones? Hosted by the Chair of the BOR, the system Chancellor and the UT President - I'd expect blinis with caviar, tiny shrimp on plastic skewers and properly chilled Sancerre instead of corn dogs and beer (except I can't go). Here's my invite (seriously, I got this in the mail). And if this don't impress you much wait until you see what they have planned for the Halloween soiree the night before the Vandy game ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. If true I apologize for missing the sarcasm, but the other points he makes about our IOL, Arch and Endries were all pretty much what every one seemed to expect ...
  19. At one point during the game I started to wonder "why do our highly rated freshman WRs like Ffrench and Lockett (ranked # 9 and # 2 in the class) sit because they haven't learned our system while Wilson (# ๐Ÿ˜Ž is playing like an All-Conference dude in his first game?" (edit: for some reason trying to type hashtag 8 in ( ) brings up the sunny emoji - lol) Maybe our system is too complicated?
  20. This is absurd, even delusional. Jeremiah Smith and Ryan Williams were light years better by any metric.
  21. Tossing my hat in the ring for the free sub ... who was closer? Edit: I think Bobbers was closer for sure ...
  22. "Cowboys Rookie RB Missed Practice Time Due to Blisters From Louis Vuitton Cleats" Questionable decision? LOL
  23. Florida 20 Texas 17 (Pate got me thinking worse case - 12 penalties on Texas, two fumbles, Arch struggles a bit, DJ wakes up and makes two plays) I really think it will be more 24-20 Texas but picking Florida is my only chance at the free sub for a year - hope I'm wrong lol
  24. Watching Josh Pate prediction and the dude is picking Florida to upset Texas. I was surprised (I like Pate's takes, usually). "Texas vs Florida...Preview & Prediction - Josh Pate's College Football Show" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJcMfz-zaXI
  25. Read it carefully and it makes sense - "Mateer leads the Sooners to shutout the Horns" ? Guys, clearly he's playing on defense if he's going to lead them to a shutout. Right? Travis Hunter-like, playing both ways and winning the Heisman Trophy.
