FAA Nationwide Ground Stop
Exactly. Thinking “let’s just get a police escort for some busses” is wishful at best. There’s going to be thousands of people flooding I-10

FAA Nationwide Ground Stop
Assume if they don’t get out tonight we are delaying the game?

Del Conte Refutes Rumor
I am not a fan of the guy but he is perfecting the art of getting under the skin of Longhorn twitter. Nearly certain he is fishing for reactions with that tweet

Portal Question
Lincoln is going to end up in Lubbock eventually. Just a matter of time.

Our new “Kevin Mar” for the SEC
SEC football needs full time refs.

What is more likely: 7-5 or CFP?
The narrative at the end of the season is going to be 11-1 big 12 teams vs 9-3 SEC teams which I’m sure will be rational and productive. Regardless we have two terrible losses. We saw last year how the committee feels about “quality wins” vs. bad losses. If a 9-3 team gets in it won’t be us.

Babying a "Year 4" QB
What other levers does sark have on offense besides benching arch at this point? It’s his last play before folding the cards. He is stuck between a rock and a hard place. He bet his tenure on Arch and it went sideways for whatever reason.

The Claim This Morning that the Offense is "Just Average"
We have likely played 3 of the top 5 defensive coaches in CFB over the first 5 games and managed to put up 20+ offensive points on each. The stats should improve from here.

Celebration Antics / Taunting Penalties
I believe we were flagged the week prior when our players ran to Bevo and tossed the ball to him after the INT (I think). Surprised it didn’t happen against Aggies as well.

DKR Crowd and Texas’ Mental Toughness
My scorching hot take is the fans haven’t gotten louder. We just blast the sound system at 100 decibels with terrible low fi EDM every stoppage in play. Ducking now.

The Line Has Begun
They moved from assigned reserved to GA during the late Perrin / early CDC years. This was done when we were quite bad at football (I was a student!) and demand was…muted. Now there is significant “over subscription” relative to availability which drives this line. Think we have <20k student tickets available. Believe there are other rules in place as well which drive qualification for football tickets but someone younger than me can opine. The good news is our students heavily support the team these days!

Best Galveston location for TX vs OSU game watching
A Gaido restaurant and a Smecca restaurant. Both families have some good Horns. Can’t go wrong

WCWS National Championships Series Thread | Game 1: Texas wins, 7-3 | Game 2: Texas wins, 4-1
As someone who doesn’t watch a ton of softball for 51 weeks a year, can someone explain if the Tech coach yo-yo strategy with his arms is common? Feel like every game I’ve watched them play he’s had an extremely quick hook and cycled his 2 best arms. Seems kind of demoralizing for his girls. Also feel like his “surrender” move bringing in the third arm tonight could have easily backfired if we completed the run rule early — would Kavan have been able to go tomorrow if we ended the game in 4.5 innings?

Wednesday - Joey McGuire Not Telling the Truth?
“Campbell did not respond via text” gave me a chuckle. I’m sure he’s loving the OTF crew these days
