October 24, 20241 yr I didn’t expect an inverted horns from Vandy. Did Rice do horns down? I don’t remember, and Vandy is the equivalent of Rice in SWC.

Went out in the Ballpark District one night and some fresh out of college drunk kid throws me the horns down. I give a little chuckle and ask where he went to school. "Michigan St" "Ok.... Then why are you throwing me horns down? Why do you even care?" "Uh, isn't that just what everyone does now?"
October 25, 20241 yr Is Xavier Filsame hurt? Surprising nothings been heard about him with all the injuries at safety, considering he was one of our highest ranking recruits.
October 25, 20241 yr Popular Post Amazingly, you can watch film from the last Texas/Vanderbilt game from 1928. The game was played at Fair Park Stadium in Dallas and Texas lost. The next year, Texas started a new streak of annual games in Dallas against Oklahoma, which continues until this day. OU and Texas had played six times before in Dallas, but not every year. Here's the video, such as it is: And a picture of Fair Park Stadium, the predecessor to the Cotton Bowl:

October 25, 20241 yr This feels a lot like MSU game earlier with more run emphasis by Vandy. Texas should assume on side kick, always going on 4th down, flea flickers etc etc Have to be disciplined in gap assignments/coverage on defense.

October 25, 20241 yr Popular Post Team notes from IT Spoiler ***We’ve been asked about RB Jerrick Gibson a lot. Why isn’t he playing more? It’s purely coaches’ decision. It’s pass-pro. He’s healthy. ***Intel leads IT to believe Michael Kern will be the featured punter this week. He had a good week. ***We already posted Ryan Wingo will start. IT bets Parker Livingstone will travel for this one. Isaiah Bond, like Andrew Mukuba, will take advantage of the bye week. ***We feel great about Andrew Mukuba returning for the Florida game. Per the comment above. ***I hate attaching my name to what’s supposed to happen so it’s hard to opine on how Quinn Ewers will play. That’s what it boils down to, I’m supposed to say how he will play. It doesn’t matter how he actually practices, it matters how he plays in front of everyone. He’ll play his best game in three weeks based on practice. I think. We’ll see. ***A few Texas players had bad games to the naked eye last week that were even worse under microscope. The coaches think they’ve fixed some ‘tells’ and fundamental miscues. We’ll get into this at a different time. There were some bad player breakdowns last week that are believed to be fixed. ***Defensively, there’s a lot of confidence each man will do his job. The D had a good week of practice. GOOD WEEK. That means they’ll probably lose eyes while the coaching staff punches furiously into their Commodore 64 tablet to show them what they’re doing wrong. But seriously, defense seems prepared. ***Special teams game? Sark said he felt the ST’s units were rounding into form. A source felt the same way and is optimistic this week. I think we’ll see a big play. ***I was asked on IT who would start between Liona Lefau and David Gbenda. Info points to Lefau but both had good weeks and are good players. Probably Lefau, though. ***IT also heard both Trey Moore and Colin Simmons looked good squeezing the run this week. ***Wouldn’t be surprised by another Gunnar Helm game.

October 25, 20241 yr Announcers: Saturday on the SEC Network, Tom Hart will handle play-by-play for the game, while Cole Cubelic will be the the analyst and Alyssa Lang reporting from the sidelines. Hart has been with ESPN 12 years, before that he did work for Comcast, CBS Sports, Fox Sports and the Atlanta Braves. Cubelic played for the Auburn Tigers from 1996 to 2001. He joined ESPN in 2011. Lang joined the SEC Network in 2018 as a studio show anchor and host. Edited October 25, 20241 yr by LTtxfan
October 25, 20241 yr Popular Post 55 minutes ago, The Ace of Aces said: IT calling this a bye game is bullshit. It was shitty writing, but I think you misunderstood. We have a bye next week. They mean they'll take advantage of missing this week and next to heal up for Florida. Hence why they say Wingo will start, they bet Livingstone will travel, and Mukuba should return for Florida. That likely means Bond doesn't play/travel either. Edited October 25, 20241 yr by MuellerHorn
October 25, 20241 yr Vandy getting several players back for Texas: Several Vanderbilt football starters were listed as questionable on the team's availability report published Wednesday night ahead of a matchup with Texas. However, those players were all upgraded to probable by Thursday. Langston Patterson and Miles Capers, each of whom missed the game against Ball State, were among them. So are Eli Stowers, AJ Newberry, Martel Hight, Sedrick Alexander and Linus Zunk. It is not known what injuries any of those players are dealing with. A later addition to the report was Kolbey Taylor, who is questionable with a back injury, according to Clark Lea. Zaylin Wood remains out after suffering an injury against Georgia State in September.

October 25, 20241 yr 30 miles south of Nashville, had business in muscle Shoals yesterday. Looking forward to my first trip to Nashville. if anybody’s at the JW Marriott, holla. . We have about 10 or 12 Exes in our group.

This is just a complete and utter FAILURE of self scouting. Something so systemic was happening that the opposing team knew what plays we were running before the snap. Our self scouting personnel need to be fired, assuming we have any. Any tendencies this large should have been found long before last week. If we don't have any dedicated self scouting personnel, Sark needs to be forced to hire some immediately.
