  1. Looks to be a shoowin.com knockoff. I used shoowin for the big 12 tickets and got Sugar Bowl for $20/ticket. Looks like now the pricing is similar though.
  2. Had to look back to 2015 to clear this up. It appears that the SEC uses CFP rankings, but the big 12 uses conference ranking. In 2015, OU won the Big 12 and went to the CFP. There was a tie for second between OSU and TCU. TCU was ranked ahead of OSU in the final CFP poll, but OSU got the nod for the Sugar thanks to head to head tie breaker. Here’s a mention of it before it happened: https://www.dish.com/dig/sports/explaining-the-sugar-bowl-selection-process/ Funny enough, there’s a link to a Baylor site in there that projected them to go to the Sugar by winning a 3 way tie for 2nd...when they beat Texas. They got the procedures right, but guess that didn’t work out for them in the end. https://www.ourdailybears.com/baylor-bears-2015-football-season/2015/11/29/9814894/big-12-tiebreaker-sugar-bowl-bid-procedures-explained-tcu-baylor-oklahoma-state

    Is this in reference to the “no comment”?
  4. Shoowin ended up being a great deal. Face value was $195, reservation fee about $25, and they charged $19.50 transaction fee when the ticket was issued...so about $240 / ticket. Just got the tickets - section C135.
  5. Aggy friend immediately told me aggy would be top 10 to start the season next year. Claimed the win is a sign of a monumental shift in culture. They’re going to be quite butthurt when they’re looking up at Texas all season next year.
  6. You’re right. Was 7k last year too.
  7. Maybe it’s normal, but if not, I’m pretty sure it’s the big 12 forcing the shoowin.com partnership. They’re basically big game option contracts (right to buy at face value). You can also sell your right if you like the market price. Worked out for me - I paid $15 over face for lower level tickets. I may try to play the game next season. CFP games are several hundred $, but still likely cheaper than secondary market tickets. Let’s see where Bama and Clemson open for next years CFP
  8. Pretty sure he’s just saying it at this point as a bit
  9. My football IQ is low and outdated, but wouldn’t Omenihu stick with the pulling LT?
  10. While 428 is definitely a section...the I have no idea was to indicate sarcasm. Still...fuck Jerry.
  11. Was just going to say that bc I decided to rewatch the play. You’re absolutely right...that was a mess for their oline and shouldn’t have worked. It looks like the LT pulling instead of blocking down confused the GJ and Foster...may have been why they both stepped inside? Omenihu washes himself out completely. Both sides busted that one.

  13. 428. Fuck jerry i have no idea
  14. And 28 to TCU...2nd highest output for them against P5 competition.
  15. Probably. It doesn’t really jive with we can beat any team in the country. But maybe it’s some Mensa way of saying you need to play your ass off every week.
  16. This is very troubling. We need Sam to be accurate. It was clear that wasn’t an option with his shoulder bothering him versus Kansas
  17. Mine from the fake thread: Texas 45 OU 35 take the loss, pussy.
  18. More troubling is that came of OUs bread and butter play - GT pull. One of the SBNation sites did a write-up on it the week before the game. Our coaches had to know they rely heavily on it and execute it very well. No idea how we weren’t prepared for it. Murrays long run against WVU came on a similar play, but I want to say only the guard or tackle pulled, not both. That said, I think if we scheme for it well, it’s a great opportunity to knock Murray the fuck out as it’s a designed run with clear keys (pull action) to know it’s coming. Haven’t looked, but wouldn’t be surprised if the G/T has a tell when they’re about to pull. I’d love nothing more for Murray to run right into a well designed blitz meant to disrupt it and have his head smashed in by Foster...but he’d probably slide for a 6 yard loss because he’s a pussy.
  19. Completely agree. And it’s a testament to the coaching staff and culture they’ve instilled. The numerous finishing plays on offense where we get 5+ yards pushing the pile show something has changed.
  20. Yeah, I don’t think it’s unfair to point out that they didn’t really use their best back the first time around. He averaged a shit ton of yards against us on his 3 touches as well. We also mostly contained Pooka and Montgomery when it was a focal point. We shut down the run and pressure the qb, and I think we can get the stops we need.
  21. Texas 45 OU 35
  22. Oops. 149 for leg. 133 for breast. Guess the science worked...meat wasn’t even pink.
  23. You better believe the big 12 is preparing to one up secsecsec on Saturday with a shot at the CFP on the line.
