  1. Michigan somehow pulled USC, Oregon, and Washington on their schedule next year in addition to us and Ohio St. I presume Washington and USC are probably down, but that is going to be a gauntlet Will test how deep they really are + recruiting presuming they lose 12-15 players to draft and Harbaugh Oregon pulled both Michigan and Ohio St. UCLA misses both. With these unbalanced schedules, I think making 12 team playoff has almost as much to do with who you hit in conference as anything. UT and Aggy need to take full advantage next year because the SEC schedule isn’t going to get any easier. Separately, and this is another discussion for another thread, how many years until a team rests guys Thanksgiving weekend or even in the CCG game NFL week 18 style, to avoid injury for playoff? Last year was fluky so not a perfect example, but if Big XII CCG was the last game played and results were known, why would TCU want to risk injury if they are still top 4 with a loss? I imagine that in that scenario the committee makes Bama 4 and TCU 5. That’s also why 16 teams would have been a real problem. At least with 4 teams getting byes there ought to be a lot to play for everyone. But the scenario will bubble up one year for a team locked into too 4 or 8-12 range.
  2. Do all the Buford Pusser/Walking Talk/Roadhouse rich guy runs a town but FAFOs with the new badass in town count? Also, for the six degrees of Kevin Bacon, Death Sentence (underrated flick), and, I guess, Wild Things?

    Ackman tripled down on the de-SPAC market and basically laughed at anyone that questioned whether it was really a viable long term route that was superior to underwritten IPOs. Then he had to unwind the Pershing Tontine. I am not going to say the guy is dumb. He obviously is very smart. But his hubris is of fucking Greek tragedy proportions.
  4. Yeah. That’s every fan base. Even ours. Seems like a lot of recency bias. Ohio St and Michigan fans are 10x worse.
  5. Any more so than any other big state school? I put the UW fans well behind any SEC school, OU, Ohio St, Michigan, Notre Dame and USC. There were definitely assholes last week but we have our fair share.
  6. I mean, seriously, I don’t get any UT fan that doesn’t have Michigan ties rooting for Michigan tonight. Penix was a wizard last week and we win if he played like he did tonight. Fuck Jim Harbaugh. I can’t wait for the hammer to drop on Michigan after Harbaugh has jetted off to Vegas in a month. I hope we Michele them in September.
  7. I don’t get it? I quite enjoyed the UW fans in NoLa. Michigan fans are just slightly more tolerable than Ohio St. we will find that out in September.
  8. This game is frustrating. Set aside how well Michigan’s defense is playing, if we get a couple of those timely wide open drops by UW receivers in our game, we win. We really should have won last week.
  9. Watts did well for us but I am ready to see what is next. He has the size to potentially have a nice NFL career but I felt like more often than not he lost 50/50 balls and was just not quite good enough to make the big play. He rarely got burnt outright but he always just seemed a step slow and was a half second away from stopping the big play that just happened.

    Not going to read upthread, but my two favorite go-tos right now are the burger at PH Brewery on Ben White and the one at Bill's Oyster on 3rd. They both have to be just steeped with butter or something, but both are really well done smash burgers.
  11. New Chappelle out. Not the best but I laughed a lot
  12. Just got back to hotel. I am not reading the rest of this thread. We lost because….. - We put it on ground twice. We do it just once and we win, I think. - Sark thought he had possessions to fuck around on in first half. Then he shat bed once we had chance to win at end. - Sweat was held throughout the game with no calls. Absolutely infuriating. We were never stopping that passing game. But we could have kept it away from them more effectively. they are going to smoke Michigan.
  13. We checked in last night at Pere Marquette. Ready to tear up Bourbon St tonight with my 6 and 10 year old in tow. Which means should be done and asleep around 6:30 after DW Fins dinner. Hook ‘Em!
  14. I really enjoyed it but leaving Chris out was a weird choice. Was it just too much?
  15. I could give a shit about his followers. It’s the non-voter that thinks none of it matters that need a wake up call. 35% of the populace is fucked. There is 20% that is combo apathetic or can’t vote D even if they hate Trump that needs to be targeted.
  16. In my fantasy final. Hopeful Stroud can play because he and Dell got me to this point and I eked it out in semis without them and with Mullen. Anyway, need to play two of Singletary (HOU), Warren (PIT), Gabe Davis (Buff), Jav. Williams (Den). Everything points to Singletary and Warren, but I benched Davis last week and nearly paid for it (Justin Tucker saved my ass -- was down 12 heading into that last game). And for some reason, not sure about Singletary. Thoughts?
  17. I'll repeat -- he needs to be asked if he understands he can only serve for one term. Anything but a quick "of course" should be put on repeat for anyone that has any doubts as to his intentions.
  18. Remind me what sections are the UW sections?
  19. Awesome. Love that I still get to root for him.
  20. I was fucking around with a trade machine..... how about this three teamer which it accepted (and you guys balance with the draft picks to make it work -- I think Cleveland probably gets some) Rockets get: Donovan Mitchell, Myles Turner Cavs get: Buddy Hield, Jalen Green, and picks Pacers get: Fred VanVleet and Jock Landale and picks This requires that Pacers and Cavs have decided they are toast this season, and I think they say "no" anyway, but I was stunned this got through the algorithm. Edited to add..... Cavs absolutely say "no" here unless they want to reboot again, tank, and hope they can pair a top 3 pick with healthy Mobley and rehabilitated Green.
  21. I mean, the Rockets did it on 12/8, no?
  22. I didn’t watch. What was Payton made at Russ about?
  23. Two wrecks in southbound 360 south of Walsh Tarlton. Related?
  24. This. Then NFL panics because it’s subsidized minor league is threatened. So it has to act. There will be 30-60 minor league teams governed by NFL similar to G league but leveraging the current college football infrastructure. The schools and NFL come up with a revenue share to allow teams to use college names and stadiums, practice facilities etc. Student athlete idea is mostly gone but so is safety net for players. Recruiting stays same but it’s totally for profit for everyone.
