Thermos H Christ posted:Yeah our defense is decent enough but our offense is just so dismal. I do not understand why Texas is still trying to swim against the current. We are based in the state of Texas, and we play in the B12. Get someone to install a fun gimmick spread offense already. What exactly has happened to the Texas offense between the UCLA game and yesterday's Kansas game? Can somebody give a quick summary? Texas looked pretty decent against UCLA and almost won that game. I would think that a bye week after that, followed immediately by a game against Kansas, would only help them, but what is the actual situation?

Yeah, Pinkel is totally going to walk away from the program where he's the winningest HC of all time for basically no reason. Sorry Mgoblog, but Drunk Mark Richt is here to stay. Also gently caress you AP poll, don't rank us you idiots.

Sorry Mgoblog, but Drunk Mark Richt is here to stay. Ya I also laughed at that. Also, isn't Pinkel a little old at this point? I mean he's been around long enough to be the winningest coach at both schools he coached. Which is like my favorite Pinkel fact.

Remember when Texas was looking for Mack Brown's replacement and they were going to get one of Jon Gruden, Bill Cowher, Nick Saban, and possibly Bill Belichick or to ghost of Vince Lombardi?

We *might*, Insha'Allah, go undefeated up to Clemson/UGA (and that's a big "might"), at which point we'll have some hilarious overrated ranking like #15, then proceed to lose our last two regular season games by huge amounts. Haha GT is not going to start 10-0, what are you smoking First of all, they're going to lose to Miami next week so it's a moot point

Yeah yeah, A&M won in OT, and welp honestly I'm surprised it was as close as it was. I figured the Hogs would lose by 10. That said, everyone needs to quit loving saying A&M beat Arkansas in a "neutral field". If the game is in Texas it's not a "neutral field". Maybe if the two teams played in Idaho or Wisconsin or Georgia, yeah, sure. That's like the Hogs having the game in War Memorial instead of Fayetteville and calling it a loving "neutral field". That poo poo is stupid.

Adun posted:How is it any different than Oklahoma/Texas which is played in Dallas? Think most agree that's a neutral field game. I wouldn't, that's loving stupid. Ok, so we moved the game 3 hours away to another field in the same state still full of our fans? Uh, no. Like I said, same thing when Arkansas has games 3 hours away at War Memorial in Little Rock. It's not a neutral field. It's mostly Arkansas fans, just like (insert Texas field here) is full of (insert Texas team here) fans. Zoran posted:North Texas is relatively equally split in its allegiances toward Texas and Oklahoma. That is very much not true for A&M versus Arkansas. And yeah, this. Although I still think even that's bullshit because the game is still played in Texas. If you want to have a "neutral" field, play the game in Tennessee or something.

I enjoyed following all the speculation but I guarantee I never said it was gonna happen and I don't know that I ever saw anyone else say that here. As I recall I got made fun of for saying I wasn't crazy about the idea. I still think Charlie Strong was the best out of anybody who was realistically on the table (except for Briles but I didn't like the idea of poachig from in conference). He wouldn't have been a realistic possibility for most schools.

But hell, I think we have a pretty good shot at beating Miami. They're probably the third-weakest team remaining on our schedule after UNC and Duke and we get them at home after a Bye week.

Seaniqua posted:if it makes you feel any better, Tommy Armstrong is probably good for 4 picks against MSU if he has more than 10 attempts. There are still too many questions for me to have any reasonably confident expectation of how the game will go. When do the lines usually come out? I'm interested to know what Vegas thinks but sort of expect MSU ro be a 7 to 10 point favorite. Currently Michigan State -8. I know gently caress all what will happen in this game, but we certainly can't afford to give the ball away four fuckin' times like last year.

Baylor opens as a 13.5 point favorite over Texas. Seems like a reasonable number to me, although I bet we beat it. UT has a decent defense, although it looks like Strong needs more time to really get his system rolling the way he wants it to, and I wouldn't quite bet on Baylor pitching a shutout.

BGSU is not going to win the MAC again this year. Our defense is atrocious, which is a shame because last year it was fantastic. When you let UMass put up 42 on you, something is loving wrong. Looking like Akron will be the team to beat in the east now.
