  1. Its worse. They would have taken Miami's spot contractually instead of a head to head cfp decision where they lost on the field. And haven forbid we're #10/11 next year and get bumped by them + some combo of a weak ACC champ or 2nd G5 Champ or 2nd place ACC/B12 team.
  2. I'd like the committee to be able to change seeds to avoid rematches as much as possible. Swap Bama and Miami, Tulane and JMU. Punishes the 1st match loser. On the plus side, no ohio state/ Indiana rematch until the title game, though Indiana will probably face the Ducks after the NIL bowl if they beat Tech. And, maybe that's how ND was dropped (head to head Miami loss along with an Aggie matchup).
  3. 1. UGA isn't 2010s Bama. 2. They don't need an NFL QB.
  4. Agree on a HC needing to be obsessed and have no hobbies or anything distracting outside of football. The wandering eye for other jobs is hopefully just speculation, and he also needs to fire his OC and promote the part time big game analyst, that guy's a genius.
  5. Living that Sonny Dykes dream or Saban fantasy? Or we're just going to money whip Freeman?!
  6. This is the problem, claiming head to head over Vandy and OU is the only way to move us ahead of them (and BYU which would be ahead of Utah), and unlikely Bama drops out. Not saying we don't deserve it, just a complete human intervention over the data driven components. Beating directional state instead of losing to Ohio State isn't what puts us over these teams; the SOS hit hurts and computer algos still see the struggles vs mid teams. The Florida loss is concrete on our ankles. Also ironic our fate would depend on Manny iaz and uke.
  7. For a minute I thought I was reading the Onion instead of OTF. Wild! However it shakes out, UNT travelling to Aggie and pulling an App State would be all time epic.
  8. Probably better to play them early rather than late
  9. The truth is 8 is enough, without AQs. What fanbase wouldn't buy into the hopium that a 16 team playoff would offer? But tossing the ACC and G5 a bone, and allowing OU and a 2nd Big 12 team in, means teams like us feel slighted we can't sneak in as #10. Even if we didn't schedule OSU, get a 4th Q beating by Uga, and lose to Florida, we have enough data points to know we're not winning 3 straight top 10 games. But getting rid of CCGs and bad bowls is worth a discussion. How about adding a revenue generating spring game instead?!
  10. This really throws my basement yarn map off. All the evidence was lining up for a backroom Sexton master plan for Sark to go to a NFL team with a bum owner and then hand over the program to Lane as a hand picked successor. After Lane poaches PK, it can only mean Saban is being hired as DC/HC in waiting.
  11. Nah, that's just B1G Georgia. We need an Indiana to take care of him in embarrassing fashion. Not going to pull for Tech, Oregon, Oklahoma, A&M or Notre Dame either. Who's left? Ole Miss?
  12. 20-20 in regulation. 23-23 first overtime. 31-29 Texas Final, Hero Kanu with the 2 pt conversion on offense.
  13. $250 in '91 would have gone pretty far. Great video!
  14. But Pawwwwl, S Florida beat Florida! The committee must use the transitive property!
  15. Doesn't have to happen this season given realistic expectations. Besides, he's got the "prove it" done vs Saban. KDB may be the better benchmark than Kirby. Not ceding ground to Elko also matters more to me than overcoming Kirby over the next month.
  16. Aggie picked the right year to overachieve - there are no complete dominant teams. Imagine if we had figured out OL in Spring/August, maybe Arch doesn't get the yips, and minus whatever got in the Swamp water, we'd be able to overcome our own roster warts to get on a playoff heater. Now, I'm just hoping for a regular season finale win and if we don't make the CFP, all the best to the Hoosiers.
  17. I thought at least one top 10 team would stumble. Can't believe it was almost Indiana. And then Vandy and Washington, wow.
  18. Love the Schloss segment, keep it on the regular! Feb too far away, but peeking at the first series, it's vs UC Davis where Longhorn Tommy Nicholson is HC. Can't wait. Speaking of Tommy's, bringing Coach Harmon on from time to time would be interesting if he's still plugged in to comment on the team and matchups while giving some Gus and Augie stories. Switching to hoops, excited by Gerry's outlook. The opening 2H lack of scoring vs Duke was a flashback to our recent teams, so good to know better times should be ahead. P.s. love that Hills energy!
  19. Are Heisman High hats for Woodrow Wilson? Edit: confirmed! (I'm watching the replay now!)
  20. So it looks like the scenarios for 2 B12 teams to get in are, - above, with Utah beating undefeated BYU for B12 title - above with BYU winning and Tech having a weak backdoor case but might be enough - Tech beats BYU Sat, 1 loss BYU wins the rematch, putting Tech on the right side of the bubble as a CCG loser - less likely, if Tech wins then BYU loses to Cincy, and then Utah beats Tech in the B12 CCG, Tech might be on the wrong side of the bubble
  21. @Gerry Hamilton @Bobby Burton re: b12 tiebreakers, if this is right, Tech could be eliminated Saturday.
  22. Sark should send Sitake a script!
  23. Lonestar Showdown might be a competition this year?! 🤔
  24. 5 years? No way in this age! A quick word of advice since you don't follow hoops. Watch the Duke game but plan for our series record to be 0-6. Between CFP/bowl games and baseball season, enjoy skiing. Watch a few hoops games vs top teams to read team temperature and build intetest. If we make the tourney (and that ought to be the floor for the coach) build at least 1 bracket with Texas winning a natty and wait for the year it finally pays off!
