So it was only one game off from half and half.

September 24Sep 24 Texas 2026 schedule: Things to know: Gerry Hamilton Spoiler Texas 2026 schedule: Things to know The SEC announced the nine game schedules for 2026-29 Tuesday night on ESPN2. As expected, the 2026 schedule is heavy on the Manning family's history in the SEC with Arch possibly being in his final year in Austin. There is a chance that four or five of the teams on the 2026 schedule for the Longhorns have new head coaches, and probably at least half will have new starting quarterbacks. Non-conference ... Sept. 5 vs. Texas State - could very well have a new head coach with jobs such as Oklahoma State, Arkansas and possibly Ole Miss coming open. Not to mention Baylor, if things go south. Sept. 12 vs. Ohio State - A lot to this game. Likely ESPN College Game Day. Arch Manning revenge game? At least three times playing in less that three years. Chaminade-Madonna High will be well represented with Jeremiah Smith and Derrek Cooper. And more. Sept. 19 vs. UTSA - Will UTSA have a new head coach? Jeff Traylor will get to P4 job in this coaching carousel cycle if he can. Tough job now with NIL, even with rev share. Oklahoma State, Arkansas, possibly Baylor ... not to mention a sleeper interest such as Virginia Tech. SEC opponents ... Arkansas - Will very likely have new coach, and definitely a new quarterback. at Texas A&M - Take your most sure-handed holder to College Station. This game could have playoff implications. Elko is doing solid program ascending work in CS. vs. Oklahoma (Dallas) - Finally we get to see Arch vs. Mateer. We will assume Venables will be back, for now. Two quality home wins to start 2025. If things go south the remainder of the season, coaching search and #AllSoftballNoBrakes at LSU - New quarterback for the Tigers in 2026, but a familiar name from Austin in 2024. Arch Manning returns to his home state for his only college game vs. LSU (more than likely). Manning family history in the Pelican State, etc... all of it will be built up by ESPN. at Tennessee - Arch Manning in Knoxville to take on Peyton Manning's Volunteers. Who will young Marshall Manning be rooting for? Cousin Arch or his and dad's Volunteers? The build up for this one will be big too. Ole Miss - May have a new head coach (see Florida below). Arch Manning hosting the alma mater of Archie Manning, Eli Manning and dad Cooper Manning. The Manning family history in the SEC will be on full display. Florida - Three straight years playing the Gators. The third time with a new head coach, and maybe new quarterback. Mississippi State - Everyone's favorite Art Briles will be in DKR, once again. Third year in a row facing the Bulldogs, and this time will be with a young quarterback they love (not like). at Missouri - Texas is 6-1 vs. Missouri all-time. This will be the first meeting since 2017, a Texas 33-16 victory. Will Missouri have a new head coach? Eli Drinkwitz will be mentioned in the Florida Gators coaching search along with Lane Kiffin (the early favorite) and Curt Cignetti.

Jeff Lebby, piece of human shit that he is, played a key role in institutionalizing rape enablement for the football program at Baylor. When the daylight started to hit what those motherfuckers were doing, he was one of most aggressive deniers and Art Briles apologists in this entire debacle. Not only is he an okie shittalker from way back, he supports the rape of young women and then threatening them if they dare speak up. Fuck him, fuck Baylor, fuck OU and fuck Mississippi State for hiring him.

September 24Sep 24 28 minutes ago, TrashMaster G said: Art Briles at Miss State? Wtf is he talking about? lebby had briles at a klanaggy practice in august as 'family' and said briles would continue to be welcome.... cdispatch.com Lebby doubles down on ‘family’ talk amid Briles questions Colin Damms ~4 minutes By Colin Damms • August 12, 2025 • 3 mins to read Lebby doubles down on ‘family’ talk amid Briles questions Mississippi State head coach Jeff Lebby responded to a question on Sunday about the presence of disgraced former Baylor head coach Art Briles at MSU open practice last week. Lebby’s Sunday press conference after a team scrimmage at Davis Wade Stadium was his first media session since the practice. Lebby Briles, Lebby’s father-in-law and coaching mentor, was present at the Seal complex in MSU gear last Monday during the open portion of practice. The Dispatch asked Lebby directly about any specific guidelines around Briles and his proximity to the program, and the MSU head coach gave a similar answer to the university spokesperson last week, treating Briles the same as any other family member attending an open practice. “(Briles) being here as family, I think that was addressed, and we want family at practice,” Lebby said on Sunday. “We want family at scrimmages. That for me is special, and that’s how it’s going to continue to be.” Briles Briles was fired by Baylor in 2015 for his role in an administrative cover-up of sexual assault allegations against football players. A 2017 lawsuit alleged at least 52 acts of rape by more than 30 Bears football players over several years. Lebby, who was an assistant coach at Baylor from 2008 to 2016, was named by former Baylor student Dolores Lozano in a federal court filing as one of the coaches who failed to take action against running back Devin Chafin after he was reported for three instances of physical assault. There was controversy at Oklahoma in 2023 when Briles was seen with then Sooners offensive coordinator Lebby and his family on the field after a win over SMU, followed by Lebby changing his social media profile picture to one of him and Briles together. Oklahoma head coach Brent Venables and athletic director Joe Castiglione both said that they were caught off guard by the situation. Castiglione issued a statement after the game saying that the incident should not have happened based on boundaries that had been set. Lebby later issued an apology, saying, “Joe Castiglione, Coach Venables both have addressed concerns with me, have talked to me about it, and again, can make sure that everybody understands that this is something that will not come up again.” Briles has had multiple jobs working in football since his dismissal by Baylor. He was the head coach of Italian Football League team Estra Guelfi in both 2018 and 2022 and was head coach at Mount Vernon High School in Texas from 2019-2020. Briles was hired as offensive coordinator by the Canadian Football League team Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2017, but the offer was quickly rescinded. He was hired for the same role at Grambling State in 2022 only to resign a few days later after public backlash to the news.

Even with TXST and UTSA, that's the toughest schedule on paper we've ever had. I looked it up to see when the last time we played Texas State/SWT and was surprised we've only played them once in 1930. I think our out of conference is much stronger than this years for sure. My daughter is currently attending Texas State, so all have to wear my Texas button down shirt and Texas State cap to this game.

There is some value to just staying off plus (be that sec or espn plus version). if arch finishes the season strong I would bet he’d be worth 20M to espn at a minimum in NIL. I know that’s not how it works. This is actually pretty interesting. Arch Manning's agent should go to Disney, and say "Listen, lets talk about an NIL package that keeps Arch at Texas for one more year and boosts your game revenue by insane amounts. We'll take 15% of the 150 million dollars, everybody wins." Now...that is how you NIL.

September 24Sep 24 Some things that interested me after glancing at Winsipedia regarding opponents for 2026: -We now have a losing record against Ohio State and that needs to be righted. -2-0 versus UTSA, which is the same record Texas currently has against Florida. -Missouri: --18-9-1 against Missouri, but 16-2 against them since 1930. --Texas played 4 exhibition games against Missouri in 1896 in Laredo, Monterrey, and Mexico City and lost all 4 of them. --They played two random games against Missouri in 1907 and 1916, losing both of them with some of the weirdest scores ever - 5-4 and 3-0. How many CFB games have finished with a score of 5-4? --The 2011 loss as they left the conference still pisses me off with the shittiness of their field and the injuries incurred during that loss. -Finally righted the wrongs of the Sherrill series against Miss State with the pummeling last year and the 1999 Cotton Bowl. Need more of that with the series now at 3-2 for Texas. -6-1 against Ole Miss with another late Mack loss being the blemish. -9-8-1 against LSU with the last matchup being Zero Blitz from Todd Orlando and LSU's "greatest college football team of all time" needing to cheat with fake injuries while getting idiotic playcalls and dropped end zone passes from the fighting Tom Hermans to get out of an un-air conditioned Austin with a single score win. -64-51-5 against the okies; 77-37-5 against the aggies; 57-23 against the pigs. -Texas has never played a football game in Tennessee as far as I can tell, so this will be a first. 2-1 against the vols, all in Dallas. These two haven't played against one another since 1968, so it will have been 58 years by the time they hit the field next year.

How many CFB games have finished with a score of 5-4? I can answer part of this. Until 1912, a touchdown was only worth 5 points. Two safeties to get to 4 points is weird, but was more common back when teams only ran the ball and formations were tighter to the line of scrimmage.
