  1. Dana Evans is on a heater🔥🔥🔥
  2. The refs has been horrible all year. I don't know what a foul is in the W.
  3. 🤣 I'm no spring chicken, but I tip my hat to you guys. Hell I can't remember what happened last year without going back and watching. Most of that is by design, it's a good thing that makes me an optimist until the outcome forces a change.
  4. How is a post like this surprising when you're being force fed anxiety? Dude take a step back, if the success of Texas means that much then follow multiple sources, get away from looking at numbers and watch the games not just the highlights, and most importantly take everything you hear and see on message boards with a grain of salt. The mods aren't in the practices, the film study, or have the gameplan. Yes, they are closer to the program than you and me, but most times they are giving an opinion of someone else's opinion. Relax my boy🤣
  5. She totally out coached Becky. It wasn't even close, but ultimately talent shines through and the Aces do have the DPOY, a 4 time MVP, and a woman on a path to becoming the most dominant player ever, having to play against that with Boston fouled out, Kelsey injured, and CC relegated to being a cheerleader Steph did a masterful job.
  6. When scouting the Florida defense everyone is so worried about are we looking at numbers or watching plays? The Florida defense that's been on display is NOT the defense we're going to see in terms of scheme or personnel. They lack the depth they had going into the season, which is why a game by game is the best approach to take.While the numbers look good there are so many players and positions to attack. Florida likes to keep their safeties back to limit explosives. Well with their best DL in street clothes and youth at both linebackers, if Sark decides he wants to get back to himself and run his counters and misdirection big plays are there for the taking. The weakest position group on the field for Florida will be linebacker. Go back and watch the Miami game, yeah I get it Miami's offensive line blah blah blah, but the success Miami had running their zone runs and GT counter had more to do with linebackers running themselves out of the play and not fitting the run well more than anything. If those linebackers play with the eye discipline they had and fitting the run like they did against Miami, they will have to drop a safety in the box. Playing press on the outside is easier to do with guaranteed help over the top, but the equation changes when you have to do it on an island. As fans have patience and be ready to be frustrated until Sark makes Florida come out of their 2 High shell, and when they do strike up the band.
  7. The next time I hear a Fever fan blame Stephanie White for a loss, I hope a chihuahua gnaws your foot off at the ankle. That woman is putting on a clinic of adapting and overcoming.
  8. Unrivaled just added more teams, got 341 mil going into year 2, and the players get paid way more. The WNBA aint only game in town. The players have far more leverage than they've ever had. These players come in the league with a huge following and the league does nothing to maximize the new found popularity of Angel, Clark, Paige, and when JuJu get to the league, her star power on and off the court will be unmatched.
  9. I was talking to my nephew and he said he was telling the players on UTEP about when he played against Bishop in Pop Warner. They were asking if he was really like that? He put me on speaker and let me explain, I told them on 1st down he played running back, on 2nd depending on distance he went back to running back or reciever, on 3rd down he played quarter back, and if they didnt go for it on 4th he punted. 🤣 that's a true story.
  10. I was today years old when I learned there's going to be a collision of elite defenses in Gainesville this Saturday. 🤣 man some of yall should step outside, touch grass, get a dog, go to therapy... something, anything but be a fan of football. I've never seen so many people scared of their own shadow and to make it worse you're not even playing in the game. Every week is the same, win Saturday, enjoy Sunday, worry Monday-Friday, get excited Saturday morning, rage post for the next 3 hours after kickoff, Texas wins and now worry about what every other team not named Texas did and start looking for a reason Texas loses to those team. The funniest 💩 ever🤣🤣🤣
  11. I get it, when the team you root for doesn't play as well as we'd like or doesn’t win it sucks. At the same time just because it didn't happen as we expected doesn't mean it won't or can't. Sark was 8 win Sark until he won 10 games or more and made the playoffs in back to back years. There's issues that this team has to fix if they want to make the playoffs or win it all. That can be said for every team in college this year, the good thing is Texas issues are noticeable and aren't being hidden even when we face inferior opponents. Texas has an elite defense and health issues at key positions on offense that's holding them back. We've had guys like Tre, CJ, Moseley, and Moore miss time who everyone figured would be key contributors. I get the next man up, but when the next man and the man after him, and the man after him who was supposed to be a depth piece is thrust into action struggle and drop off is to be expected. We haven't run the ball anywhere near what we did against OSU because experience matters. As this team gets healthy we'll forget all about San Jose and UTEP. We just have to get to that point, no amount of stressing over past results is going to fix it. One day I'm going to wake up and be part of a fanbase that doesn't care who we face because we are TEXAS and you don't matter. I want to have what Alabama and UGA have, you think either of those teams would be worried about who they're gonna face? Nope! When they step on the grass they have a confidence about them that says we're better than you and its up to you to prove me wrong 🤣 and if they do lose it's only because they ran out of time.
  12. That's just what happens here. Anyone Texas faces with a little bit of competence is the best we'll face until the next obstacle we face. We heard all off season about how great Smith and Downs were, then we played them and they were none factors, and Smith was locked up by a true freshman. Next week we're going to face the best defense we've faced all year and the toughest environment we've played in so far until it's not. Then we're going to forget about Florida's defense and Oklahoma will become the best defense we've faced to date. Just once, I'd like to see and read how Texas takes advantage of the weaknesses of their upcoming opponent and not go into a game with tails tucked just hoping somehow Texas can eek out a win.
  13. Maybe. But you're not playing 1 on 1 in football. Football is the ultimate team sport, so you can't evaluate talent in a vacuum, because if ten players do the right thing and one player misses an assignment, that play is blown up or you don't get what you should have gotten out of the play. Stats are cool and all, but you have to take it game by game and opponent by opponent. Like what does player X do well and can the team they're playing take that away. If you're on the grass on Saturdays, talent is never a question. It all comes down to coaching, scheme, and what can you do when your strengths are taken away. We just witnessed it. FSU is undoubtedly more talented than Virginia, Virginia won because they had more counters and answers for what FSU sent their way.
  14. Not saying any names but there's at least two mods here loves a qb that is mediocre for 75% of the game but then makes a 10 yard run🤣 Its Mateer magic
