Seems like a good dude by all accounts but the guy got paid over a $1M to produce nothing over the last two years. Honestly 2025 was worse than 2024 because he kept soaking up carries and wasting plays and possessions. Even against A&M he just went 6 carries for 10 yards while Wisner was 19-155. (And Wisner is a kind of limited RB himself), Even before the injury he was less than 5 ypc in 2023. It's nothing personal but you can't go into next season hoping for this guy to be the answer again. We need someone proven in the portal.

If Tech outspent us it's not by much. They are smart having a personnel department independent of the coach and they were also smart spending it on proven players instead of hoping for development. Finally it's still TBD how good they actually are (I'm not sure the offense does much against a real defense). Sark blew too much money on Deandre Moore and CJ Baxter types along with a bunch of freshmen that are riding the bench.

They pushed him out to get Mensah, and rightfully so.

Do not like seeing Goosby projected as a first rounder lol. Very much need him back.

We'll see if that's the real spread. I also would never bet on this Texas team. Even if we dominate there is a good chance we do our classic Turtle Tom+prevent defense that makes the score close at the end.

Sark really sandbagged the statistical models by spending 10 games stubbornly trying to be a power running play action team with Connor Stroh and Nick Brooks at guard and CJ Baxter at RB 😭

We are in the Citrus Bowl vs Michigan

Personally I'm skeptical of any true freshman being a big time contributor year 1. Jeremiah Smith is an outlier for a reason. Give me a portal guy.

Pretty sure we will play Michigan in Citrus, although USC might be a more challenging opponent

Time to cancel some OOC games

Also OU IMO. After all we kicked their ass at a neutral site.

IMO there is a chance that the committee does what it absolutely should do (to incentivize OOC matchups) and they treat us as a 10-2 team that beat a cupcake instead of losing to Ohio State. In that case we have a higher ceiling than #12. Obviously my faith in this is not terribly high.

IMO there is a world where the committee actually follows their stated criteria (SOS and head to head prioritized) and puts us ahead of ND and/or OU. It's not likely but it is possible. I don't see us slipping in at #12 or whatever.

vs ND 100%. vs Ohio State next year maybe 50/50 just because it is short notice and at home. Michigan also 50/50 just because it is home and they kind of suck anyway.
