Vegas never fails. Vegas never sleeps. Texas is favored by 21. Vegas knows everything.

UGA could lose one of their games between UF and @ Mississippi and I would not be surprised. Might even lose both because the SEC is funny like that.

Besides their matchup in 2008, Arky has never been an easy out for Texas, regardless of circumstances. They gave Tennessee a great game in Fayetteville and beat Vanderbilt in Nashville. That game will be a dogfight too.

Vegas didn't become Vegas by being wrong all the time.

I think so too. It’s time for the Rockets to carry their weight in the state of Texas in pro hoops. The Spurs and Mavs have done their part this century. Now it’s the Rockets turn.

KD gets a big win at the Moody Center

Rewatched this game today to remind myself of what Texas basketball is capable of. One of the biggest wins for them in my lifetime.

So if Texas ends up playing Oklahoma in the National Championship Series, you think Texas could take two out of three games despite losing to them in 2022 and 2024?

Yeah you would think the Isa Torres acquisition alone would put them in the high Tier 2 low Tier 1 range. Not to mention what they probably spent on retention.

Seems like for the foreseeable future, in any given season, if you pick Texas, Texas Tech, or Oklahoma to win the national championship, you will probably be right because at least one of those three teams has played in the WCWS National Championship Series since 2019. They are clearly the three best programs in college softball right now, similar to WCBB with South Carolina, UConn, UCLA, and Texas. Alabama, Tennessee, and UCLA probably have the best chance to win it all out of the non-big three college softball teams in 2027. Besides that, I cannot see any other team dogpiling in OKC. I'm curious to see the NIL spending tiers for college softball like we have seen for college football and men's college basketball.

That last paragraph is how I’m feeling about UT athletics in general right now. I know most of that has to do with football, but I just have this odd feeling that compared to their normal standards under CDC, this could be the worst season for him as an AD post-COVID for a majority of the 21 sports on campus. This could be the most difficult Directors’ Cup for them to win. Hope I’m wrong though.

This guy can explain what happened better than I ever could...

I know Sark has gotten so much heat for pointing this out, but it is something that must improve (along with much more glaring flaws) if Texas wants to run the table from now through late November.

Opening night…

The most obvious AI tweet of all time...

Yeah, I'm kidding. Even Duke will drop two or three games in the regular season. They'll probably win the ACC regular season championship outright and the ACC tournament championship again like they have the past two seasons though. Just gotta break through that National Semifinal hump. If everything goes right, would love to see Duke vs Texas in Detroit and Texas get their first win ever over Duke in hoops, but the NCAA Tournament is wild.
