Cowboys vs Titans: MNF
Brings my survivor league down to 7 (from 60). Nice...glad I could count on the jerruhboys sucking

Game Atmosphere
Agreed. Thought the atmosphere was pretty stale yesterday. Maybe the okie lite loss deflated the crowd, but the stupid piped in crap was uninspiring.

11/04 AP Top 25 Poll... Texas is #15
And there were a ton of ranked losses yesterday. That’s the main reason nothing changed.

Shitty result notwithstanding, it was a beautiful day for football (some photos of mine from the game)
It was my kids first game and they had a great time...they didn’t seem bothered by the defensive performance. I envied them. DKR seemed pretty docile most of the game.

Texas vs. WVU @ 2:30 (Fox)
I have no idea what causes this either, but it’d be awesome if it stopped happening. I’d guess the lack of pass rush doesn’t help.

Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
Does anyone really go to the Palms? I checked it out once and it was dead.

CrossFit
If you like group workouts, I think it’s good. I’ve done CrossFit for about 5 years...it’s the only way I’ve been able to consistently get to a gym. To me, it’s a similar feel to the football workouts I did in high school so I enjoy it quite a bit more than solo work. There’s a wide variance between gyms and it’s really up to the coaches as to how safe it will be. You get a bunch of moms and meatheads doing Olympic lifts at high intensity, and you’re asking for trouble without proper coaching. That said, the two gyms I’ve gone to, the coaches were great at teaching and enforcing form, monitoring load to back down the meatheads asking for an injury, and varying programming to ensure you’re not overtaxing one muscle group. They typically focus on intensity over hitting prescribed weight/movement, so encourage scaling often. If you can’t do a movement or lift well, you’ll have a worse workout and you increase your chance of injury. Biggest complaint is pairing heavy deadlifts with box jumps (or heavy dl in a time based workout period). That’s dumb and seems to be designed to fuck up your shins. My injuries have been limited to shin and hand tears.

Looking at Texas Defense 2018 - OSU
That’s gross. Every one of our front 5 got beat that play.

Fearless predictions for rest of season
We lose 2 of 3 against WVU, Tech and ISU with most likely losses to WVU and Tech. I don’t think we magically fix our pass rush and secondary issues unless Roach coming back makes a huge difference.

S&P+ rankings: Overperformance or overcorrection?
That seems pretty accurate

Who had the better loss yesterday, The Texas Aggies or tu?
Another well executed phlegm troll job

Sam Ehlinger
I don’t think the stat line reflects how accurate he was last night. Drops, pressure forced throw aways, a couple batted balls, etc. He’s not Colt, but few college qbs are. He’s also starting to step into the pocket to avoid pressure and deliver strikes. His big misses are less frequent and his deep passes have significantly more touch than earlier in the year. He overthrows beck and Ingram if it was week 1. Your opinion is wrong and I’m not surprised someone called you a dumbass for it.

Texas vs. WVU @ 2:30 (Fox)
Taking my kids to their first game this week...actually kind of happy it’s a 2:30 kickoff.

S&P+ was technically wrong this week. Had OSU covering 3.5

We’ll come back and win
I’m sticking with my prediction. Lose by 30+...no going back now
-
We’ll come back and win
Maybe we can reverse the 4th quarter trend of sucking. They just said we’ve been outscored 52-17 in the 4th
-
We’ll come back and win
Any chance we discover feeding Ingram results in Jamaal Charles numbers? I’d believe if we did that.
-
We’ll come back and win
Not that I want to be right...just don’t see it. Getting beat in all phases
-
We’ll come back and win
No we won’t. We’re losing by 30+
