  1. The biggest thing that gives me hope that I will see another football NC in my lifetime is reminding myself that Orgeron, Jimbo, Les Miles, and Larry Coker all have NC's.
  2. This. Sark's offense appears to be catered towards maximizing top-end talent. The problem is, this is predicated on the presence of elite talent to begin with. He's not a chicken salad out of chickenshit kind of guy. Good news is, he appears to be fixing the talent problem. I'm not completely sold on Sark as the guy to finally get things done in the W-L column; but I'm so tired of the endless cycle of coaching changes, combined with 13 years of shit on-field production causing me to reassess priorities in my life, that I'm good with him getting several more years at this point. There's no sure thing hire out there, and at the very least, I feel like Sark will leave the roster in better condition than he found it. Whether he's leaving 10-15 years from now with a statue, or a few years from now for too many 5 loss seasons.
  3. Doesnt matter either way. I remember thinking the Texas heat was gonna help us against Ohio State in 06. I quit caring about weather one way or another after that game.
  4. That's just depressing. I wouldn't have expected actual barbecue, but I would have given Wisconsin credit enough for there to at least be a grill.
  5. I'm really, REALLY hoping that those spoiled fucks have finally made a bad hire.
  6. If Texas still holds up at the point of attack in the late 3rd quarter, we pull away, imo. On paper, we should be superior at quarterback and skill positions this year. We should be able to score in bunches. I'm honestly way more worried about Big 12 fuckery this year than Bama. We HAVE to win this shitty conference this year. No excuses. Sark has checked all the boxes off the field, but if we don't win the conference this year, doubts about Sark having the ability to be the guy on gameday are going to skyrocket.
  7. Let's just stop and think about what kind of pussies it takes to spend so much time wondering how much other schools hate your rival. I don't give two shits what Kstate and Tech think about the dirt burglars.
  8. My favorite part is when they keep bringing up the "long game". I'm pretty sure connections in the city of Austin set you up a lot better in the long term than BR, where let's be honest, nothing is happening there outside of football, and they probably need to pull from state education funds to keep that running. No self-awareness at all.
  9. It just means more...
  10. Or we're being set up for one last swerve...
  11. It's gotta be rough having the only things of value in your state be a college football team you have to reallocate infrastructure funds to in order to keep it running, and one small district of a city that is quarantined off so tourists don't notice the rest of the city burning down.
  12. Good old bumper sticker logic. Keep it to CR.
  13. Have to admit, I was expecting to read a whole hell of a lot more dumbfuckery when I opened this thread. Surprisingly level-headed posts for SEC mouthbreathers.
  14. Exactly. You put your Heisman winner on the field on a crucial 4th down in the national championship game. Fuck all that other noise. Also, who cares? USC blinked. Texas didn't. Texas won. The fact that USC made a dumb decision doesn't invalidate our NC.
  15. I always forget that FSU was an independent when Bowden really started building that thing.
  16. Big 12 fuckery is honestly my biggest worry about this season, after injuries. Any other year, with this roster, I'd be in a diabetic coma from the kool-aid. Maybe it's just battered wife syndrome from the last 13 years, but I can't shake the feeling that our best team in over a decade is going to get fucked over petty politics.
  17. It would be a mistake for the SEC to leave any viable football brand in the south on the table. If the Big 10 gets even one of Clemson or FSU, they could lay claim to being the only true "national conference".
  18. I've never understood the weird snobbery college fans have about NFL fans. Zero self awareness on how ridiculous us college football fans look to normal people. Lol
  19. Replaced? No idea. But imo, assuming we are reasonably healthy throughout the year, Sark needs to get us to at least 10 regular season wins to keep the serious doubt around the program from creeping in. Realistically, I don't like putting too much weight on any single season. We very well could go 8-4 again this year before blasting off in 2024, but I don't think that is likely.
  20. What were these decades of BS calls in UT's favor? I'm assuming you're talking about the SWC era. That was well before my time, and I don't know enough about the conference politics during that time period, but none of that applies to what I've seen since I've started following this program in the late 90s. Shitty calls happen to every team, but I have yet to see evidence that Texas controls everything like so many fans of other schools seem to claim.
  21. Big House Eats is more appropriate a title than I think he realizes.
  22. Didn't we have a Westlake commit that had cardiac event during his HIGH SCHOOL game back in the 2000s? It's not unheard of. Must have been those damn hepatitis b vaccines!!
  23. WTF am I looking at? My first thought is that cake seems ideal for Bob Stoops.
  24. You should have seen my thought process when Herman's drinking buddy staff was announced: "Finally, some unknown, up and coming, honest-to-God FOOTBALL COACHES that are going to GRIND! No more divas like Wickline." The human brain is capable of amazing things when it wants to believe.
  25. Nice! We haven't done the beer mile yet, but that's a really good area to be based out of. There's a park area near tower bridge, and if you can make it there on a weekday, it's perfect. Just enough of a buzz to feel like you're in a world city while still having personal space. It's about a 5-10 minute walk from Joe's, too.
