  1. From this point forward, I’ll be thinking of you as a Moron. Heading to rural Texas to work for the day. Heard the news on the radio while driving out there then most of the personnel that day watched the news on a tv that was carted into the lobby.
  2. They certainly didn’t have to play aggressively. They’ve had a great of turnover the past two years. It may catch up with them slightly. I feel we are primed for a great game. We shall see.
  3. Another great example 45-35. Plus they were allowed to bend the rules. i have read that. When I say concern, I meant concern for us in that we should have had success against them. They have several multi year starters. So I’m a little hesitant to proclaim we’ll have great success getting after Sayin until we do it.
  4. Texas-USC played to 41-38. Texas Tech beat us what 39-33 (or was it 37-33). Those two Texas teams were loaded with talent. Sometimes the other guys make plays.
  5. The OSU OL for the past two matchups has not been too concerning entering those games but fared well. The expectation this year seems somewhat similar.
  6. The 7 yard jet sweep to Wingo. The 2 yard end around to Townsend versus A&M. The direct snap to a TB versus Michigan. Both TDs. Neither required much from the Oline. Some QBs keepers. It is these type plays that make all the others easier. Get the defense flat footed or even on their heels and moving them becomes much easier.
  7. Good question. My answer - not much good. Undeserved. A not so much talked about issue the more you expand. It increases the odds that teams make late season personnel decisions that impact play and potential outcomes in those late season games. And still defaults to too many teams, too few games and too many unbalanced schedules. The bs seedings matter too. About the only reason to do 24 is more money. But as one who attends that only costs me more so that’s not exactly benefit.
  8. Message boards crucify dudes for such things. Being close, doing your job, at least the job to allow others to do theirs but not finishing and a teammate not there to finish it either.
  9. Depends. If Carr is 12-0 and Arch 9-3, I’m not sure the stats will matter assuming they’re in a similar realm. Context should matter. It didn’t when Bama RB won it over Colt.
  10. I think it’s just stay healthy versus Texas State because we should win going away.
  11. Would I get to sit next to you? If so, is that a premium or a discount?
  12. I assume you don’t share the same last name.
  13. Yep awesome Kicker. I was in the student section. Don’t remember exactly what yardline but believe it was on the end of the field. If I think about it, that’s for sure a moment I’d like to recapture. A big Roy Williams fan.
  14. So concerns about depth at LB and Safety mean that every team starts behind us.
  15. And almost a decade later. But Dawson versus Virginia. It was legit one of the best plays I’ve ever seen. It felt like the wind was trying to push the ball back over the goalpost after it had crossed.
  16. Are you backing out the cupcake games from all or just us?
  17. I’m going to track it because that’s who I am. And it is preseason which is the season to work on your game. Hill was on the field for 23 pass plays. He was in coverage for 22 of those with an interception and a grade of 90+. He did get a pressure on his 1 rush attempt grading at 63.
  18. I don’t remember much from last fall’s discussion. Lots of variables but Stroh had the fewest pressures allowed of the front 5 versus Ohio State - Baker 5 plus 2 penalties. Goosby, Campbell, Hutson with 2 each. Throw in a penalty, a huge one at that for Campbell. Stroh 1. In that game, the big errors came from places other than LG. Here is what I don’t know and either people with the power can’t or won’t ask. What happened to Neto? Why Brooks? These guys movements are tracked. We don’t know those outcomes but presumably any outliers in a negative sense would likely exclude some guys. Brooks was the outlier. There’s data to show that. Evaluation shows that. That’s the move that should be questioned first and foremost. That’s the name that should be discussed first. If it’s not, then someone is missing the boat. Personally at this time last year, I felt very good about Campbell, Hutson, and Goosby. Then I was reasonably confident in Baker. LG I thought would be fine. In part because the other 4 parts would be average to maybe well above average. Start with the top guys then work your way down. And quit giving Sark a play calling pass. In the first 5 games, he had two dramatic outliers. A third was out of his norm. So with a new QB, a new OLine, banged up RBs and WRs, and some new blood as pass catchers, he did them no favors getting up to speed and building confidence.
  19. Rubell-Johnson come on down. It is a bit odd that people are seemingly scared of a frosh. Simmons played as a frosh in the SEC. Hill played as a frosh. Littleton played as a frosh. The freshman LBs are not being thrust into starting roles because they have to be.
  20. Pretty sure Bobby has an NIL package.
