Kirby’s an A-hole

The problem sometimes with calling things how you see them is that many times you’re looking through poor lenses. In this case your lenses seem to be blurry at best

Every season should realistically be CFP or bust for Texas. We have the highest amount of allocated NIL, preseason #1. Instead of us making the CFP, literally all of our rivals will be, including the one who has been ridiculed for playing Moneyball with NIL. This isn’t just a down year for Texas. This is one of the most disastrous years in our program’s history. Like top 5. Maybe even the most disastrous. We are closer right now to Penn State’s fate than Ohio State’s. Not a whole lot of supply of wunderkind head coaches on the market relative to demand if you haven’t noticed.

Just the fact that they will all likely be in the CFp while Texas is out is 100000% winning for them

I was 100X more hopeful in our program after 2018 than I am currently. TAMU, Texas Tech and OU weren’t all gearing up for national championship runs. This is quite possibly the most disastrous position Texas football has been in in my lifetime. I have never experienced this level of program disappointment while literally all of our rivals still have a chance at a national title with two weeks left in the season. I’m not sure that has EVER been the case.

Yeah. I was 10 years younger and more hopeful back then. Also, back then all we had to do was be good enough to beat OU and Big12 teams. I could see that leap potentially happening in a year.

is at about a 10 year low. I’m embarrassed and heartbroken

I believe it this is our only route to the SECCG other than Ole Miss dropping another game

In order for us to win a 4 way tiebreaker with Bama, Ole Miss and TAMU, I believe OU has to win out and Mizzou has to lose one additional game (other than vs OU). That’ll give us a higher conference opponent win percentage than the other 3, which is what the tiebreaker would come down to.

The tie would be Bama/Ole Miss/TAMU/Texas, so we would only have the win over TAMU. We would need OU to win out and Mizzou to lose today to MState or the last week to Ark (or both). Then we would win the 4 way tie breaker based on conference opponent win percentage.

Why do people want Bama to beat OU?

No chance in hell to the first part

Why is this G5 head coach talking about SOS?

I even forgot about OU waxing Michigan, who will likely finish 4th place in the Big10

You’re really trying to make a false equivalency. The upper half of the Big12 has played literally zero teams that are currently ranked in the CFP Top 25. Mississippi State has one SEC win and beat the team that beat Tech (ASU). Fairly confident the SEC is undefeated by the Big12 this season. By the end of the season, teams from the SEC will have played Ohio State, Notre Dame and Georgia Tech. That’s likely the two P4 winners plus the top non P4 team. The record will likely be 2-1, with a 7 pt loss to the #1 team. The SEC’s quality is demonstrably not self referential like you are suggesting
