Tulsa-Temple. The team that almost beat Texas vs. the team that beat the team that beat Texas pretty good. It's a clash of the titans!

:doink:

:lol: They're trying out some insane thing where they have a former QB in the booth acting out what the Tulsa QB is doing and explaining his thought process.

Got awkward when someone got injured. It's horrible. It's the dumbest thing ever it's a good thing no one is watching this.

Some juicy Auburn rumors:
TE Jalen Harris left the program and maybe Nate-Craig Myers and his brother are going to leave too.
Sounds like there's no real drama, they just never found their place in the offense and with the new 4 game redshirt rule you're gonna see a lot of guys give it one last shot to find out if they're solid on the depth chart or not and then bounce early in the season. Shame about NCM, he was a big-time talent and it's not like he didn't play (I think someone said he had more snaps than any WR over his time at Auburn) but for whatever reason he just did not get balls thrown his way. A freshman, Seth Williams, already seemed to be usurping his role too.

I might be late to the party here but I swear I just heard an AAC commercial refer to itself as "a power six conference", is this a new thing?

I think they started trying to make it a thing after Houston beat FSU in the Peach Bowl and started getting dark horse playoff buzz going into the next year. As far as I can tell only Mike Aresco and Korranus have ever actually used it unironically

Did you get that bowl game where Bama lost to Utah but it didn't count because all the players were sad they didn't get to play for the national championship?

e. Jesus Christ that was 9 years ago? I've got to go back 9 years to find something to use to mildly mock Alabama?

You could always bring up Saban pleading to play LSU for the championship even though they didn't win the SEC West and lost to Les in the 9-6 Match of the Century.

My favorite Shula Years story, which I've told here before, is from my freshman year. My friend had sociology or something, one of those big lecture hall courses, with John Parker Wilson. She said every morning he would walk into the lecture hall and loudly say "John Parker Wilson. Quarterback."

In my headcanon LSU threw that game because they knew it was such a farce. Taking one for the BCS playoffs to happen.

That Ohio State team they lost to Virginia tech by 14 shouldn't have made the playoff (and then won) let alone the Ohio State team that also failed to win its division which led to bama getting in the next year
