Buddy, they weren't one of the marquee programs for decades because tutors did the players homework. That's the norm at every noteworthy program. The notion of a student-athlete is a comical American invention.
FSU rose from a women's school because Bobby was willing to play anyone anywhere anytime and called an aggressive game. They started racking up victories against the sports giants. Mickey Andrews was one of the finest at Defensive Coordinator. FSU had stability. Considering the fundamental advantages the Gators and Hurricanes have and headstart they enjoyed on FSU, the Seminoles rise to prominence is one of the most unlikely and best stories in CFB.

Early line in draft kings is ut by 14.5. I like the horns to win by 20+ here, imo. I hope the line goes down some with ewers out.
tbh bijan and roschon should be able to run at will on utsa. with those guys even card should be able to have a competent game.
if the defense is anything close to what we saw today they should win by 20+ easily.

Yeah, funny I noticed him too staring down the WR1 in a lot of routes.
He's a mediocre passing QB, but has a gun for an arm and is obviously a great scrambler. Shough is a decent passer but average scrambling ability and average arm strength.
Honestly the best QB in the team is Morton but he's a freshman so no way he gets the nod unless injuries. Kinda sucks that Donovan is only a sophomore himself because we have to wait that much longer for Morton but who knows, maybe he gets just enough of the passing game down by his senior year that he's like a Cam Newton lite.
i'm inclined to be pissed about a&m but it's a young team. the problem is with the hype. aggie fans are almost as delusional as cowboys fans. this team is way too young and still does not have a QB. i also predict that Haynes King will not finish his college career as an aggie. i expect max johnson take over and for connor weigman to be the starter next season. if the season gets really bad, it'd be in jimbo's interest to to just go with the freshman for the rest of the year (if, for instance, the aggies are 3-3 at the halfway mark). i don't see how miami is an underdog as i can't see A&M growing up that fast.

Tech isn't going to to ever get an SEC invite but if they did, would it be a good thing for the football team? I mean, they'd be somewhere in the Missouri/South Carolina level of wins losses I think.
The money would be good but as a fan what the fuck do I care about the tv money?
I think being in the big 12 minus ut and ou might be bigger for tech turning it around than any head coach. That's two auto losses every year gone

Yeah about once every five years there's a great game between tech and ut but the ones in between are usually blowouts. It's stupid weird that they can hang 70 on Tech the same year that ut loses to Kansas and Tech wins their bowl game against an SEC team
Tech and UT were supposed to continue scheduling for the next decade but I think ut is trying to back out of that verbal agreement lol

Lol I meant next couple of decades.
The horns absolutely don't need it. The city of Lubbock needs it bad tho. Whenever the horns and Aggies and sooners and other big names come to town the place is packed and the economy gets a huge boost.
Me personally, I don't gaf because Tech will never consistently be that level of recruiting and money. I used to think maybe with Leach they could build something great but today you just realize it's just never gonna happen. I'm perfectly fine with having Baylor, TCU and Okie St as rivals. Cincinnati proved there's still a path to the playoffs last year this way.

I certainly wouldn't blame Tech if they left for the SEC.... and on the surface it sounds bad ass to be in the best conference, but in reality it would be miserable as a football fan unless you're blue blood level. How does Vanderbilt fan ever get excited for any upcoming season?
i wish a qualifying factor for being in the playoffs is you have to win your conference. that would make teams think twice about these stupid superconferences.

Great article on Nebraska's woes after leaving for the big 10 and more money....
....there was a slam-dunk, sure-bet hire made over the course of the past several years, it was Scott Frost at Nebraska. In fact, when Frost accepted the job at his alma mater in 2017, his arrival could have legitimately been hailed as one of the best programatic fits in recent history.
He was a native son of Nebraska. He was a national championship-winning star quarterback for the Cornhuskers. He was an accomplished coach who pulled off the biggest two-year turnaround in the history of the sport at UCF. But maybe most importantly, Frost not only knew the culture.... He was part of the culture....
.......ESPN executive Burke Magnus made news a couple of weeks ago when he said the network looks for rivalries, not markets, in realignment. Try to name Nebraska's biggest rival in the Big Ten. A contrived rivalry with Iowa never caught on with the masses. To be realistic, though, these are ruthless times.
Nebraska needed to take the Big Ten money and cut ties with a lot of its history, but it doesn't mean it fit. In fact, the Big Ten move feels like a net negative. Look what scores of Nebraska athletic directors and administrators did with those millions: not nearly enough....."

ATM was the biggest beneficiary of not having to play Texas Tech.
Mike Leach just ate at them and now he does the same at Miss ST in such a short time period.
ATM is absolutely wasting talent with horrid play calling and design.
Jimbo needs to step down as O coordinator.
ATMs defense looked strong against Miami but against A State... They moved the ball well and fully deserved to beat ATM.
And ATMs offense was an absolute no show.
Texas is gonna take time. Just not there yet. Offensive line is better with 2 true freshman starting... (how piitiful was that oline last year...)
Two true freshman. Not even a year of college weight program and not knowing the playbook fully and they are starting... wtf... I know they are good players but this does not happen on teams that have good offensive lines. Bijan and Roschon are having to do a hell of a lot on their own.
Cant wait to see Ewers again. So glad we dont face a defensive line like Alabama again. People will get killed.

Also, Card isn't the one dropping passes or running into a loaded front. Card didn't fumble in OT. I am not a big fan of Card, but the kid has played very well since taking over. We did not lose because of him today. We lost because our D was horrible. They simply could not make a stop when it mattered to get off the field.

That is sort of the point. Its not meaningless from a rival point of view. Its still hate week. The game will still be sold out because rivalries go way back. Its the first time Texas is a favorite since... damn, I cant remember.... And from a recruiting point of view its still big because their are kids who are in a decision mode between ATM, Texas, and Oklahoma. Good players who want to stay close to home. From a UT perspective the Big 12 Championship is still possible.
Personally I would not want to see a 3 loss UT team in any playoff though. It would mean they are just not good enough early in the season.

It would be nice if there were a way for a team to get hot and play better and better throughout the season that was off early in the season to make the playoff, but that is a pipe dream I guess.

i never understood why A&M was ranked so high going into the season, mainly because of the uncertainty about the QB position and the amount of turnover on the offensive line. haynes king is not very good, tbh and max was meh at LSU. weigman is really the best option, but the kind of offense jimbo runs, along with his refusal to simplify it, makes it highly unlikely that a true freshman gets much playing time. you've got to have the QB situation resolved and A&M is still lost in that regard. i'm not going to lay judgement on the true freshman just yet. it'd be one thing if it was a few of them playing on a roster filled with experience but that's not the case. A&M really is playing an unprecedented number of true freshman right now (unprecedented for A&M that is) and not too many upperclassmen. i don't think jimbo knows how to handle depth charts, tbh.

If Arky plays good enough the rest of the way to play a 3 win Texas team.
And I have not been bowl game groomed. I just dont want an clearly inferior team in some game against a team who has won early, middle and late in the season. I want the entire season to count. Texas has lost to Tech and played alabama tough. The loss to Tech eliminates us. Thats fine.
Imo you have to play well enough for 1 loss or undefeated or the regular season means very little. I think its the other way round. College fans are pro playoff groomed. The NBA playoffs are a joke.

what Jimbo seems to not be able to handle is the offensive system.
Its so rare to see a guy come fully open early to help out the O line and QB. Thats scheming. Herman could not get it done either. Always contested catches.
Jimbo is a great recruiter and great with the kids it appears. Do what you do well. I think their D is awesome talent wise but Leach in his interview basically said that ATM was fairly consistent in what Leach thought they would do and because Miss ST. o line played well they had no problem moving the ball.
Alabama game should be fun just because the back and forth this summer. I will say I think the ATM players will play very hard for their coach. If they dont... thats a bad sign. I think they will. Imo they will play for Fischer under almost any circumstances. He is a leader.

Basketball fever probably helped with this as Tech has almost grabbed the big one and basically has a chance if they keep recruiting and getting the good play that now seems fairly normal.
For me a season where we actually beat Oklahoma and then maybe win another Big 12 championship would be nice. Its pure folly at this point to think of another National Championship. So specific games and actually playing some good games is a relief from the torture. Baby steps I guess.
And the NIL, transfer portal and conference changes still leave so much unknown... I have time to wait. And Hope since I now have accepted college football is fully Minor league professional teams. With some big differences in pay.
Also I am used to professional soccer where money rules and the best teams have the richest owners. And changes in the big teams on top really has not changed all that much. There are very few ways for any type of fairness. No draft for teams that do poorly, they get sent down to a lower paying league. cutthroat stuff...

They’re taking a step in the right direction tbh. This game and the game at Kansas St would’ve been blowouts by halftime in the Matt Wells era.
still they haven’t yet gotten over the Detroit Lions-esque head scratching boneheaded plays that can turn the tide in these types of games.

Texas would be 5-0 if Ewers hadn't gotten hurt.

Yeah I think Bama probably covers if they use that backup QB that ran all over the place last week. But I wouldn't want to touch this one, tbh. Conference games get tricky.
I'd rather put money on Okie St -9 to blow out Tech

Man I’m glad Milroe went to Bama.
And I’m glad King went to ATM.
But I really wish we had got Evan Stewart.
All in all that was a pretty trashy game.
Luckily it was close, otherwise blecchhh…
Jimbo with the fake penalty in place of a time out. Last time Jimbo tried this trick he had two players go down on the same play, so he got one thing right this time.

Texas would be 5-0 if Ewers hadn't gotten hurt.
Ewers made some absolutely pro throws. Especially to Sanders. He knows what he has in his receivers and he throws them open.
That being said the pop fly attempt to throw the ball away…. Lord… And he did not help Jordan Whittington much. Whittington made 3 very high snags and then he missed Whittington wide open.
But tha ability to feel the pocket and throw people open is stunning. And he does not try to throw fastballs, he does what is necessary to get the ball there and even lead the receiver to a catch with the throw. More time and he gets even better. We should be attracting the best wideouts in the future.
. Our Oline better protect this guy. Ewers gave himself up in the Bama game to try and make a pass. NO more of that shit.
Addition: OU literally does suck. They are god awful. Especially without D. Gabriel

yeah the fact that they put up 31 points against that D-line with a backup quarterback was a positive sign IMO. you could tell the gameplan was to mitigate the massive advantage Ok State had in the trenches with the hurry up tempo and quick passes tbh

Yeah I mean we've only seen a couple of quarters from Ewers but damn, dude looks like he could start for 3-4 pro teams tomorrow.
Behren Morton is damn good.
I watched some of the replays.
Is he projected to be a first 5 round draft choice? I had no idea...
Blake
10-09-2022, 10:45 PM
Yeah Morton is really good but needs a little more bulk to him. Ewers looks like he's 27.
ewers is the real deal. this benefits manning as well as there will be no pressure for him to start in his freshman year. now, he can just be groomed to take over when ewers leaves. hudson card is likely going the way of the transfer portal this spring.
what Jimbo seems to not be able to handle is the offensive system.
Its so rare to see a guy come fully open early to help out the O line and QB. Thats scheming. Herman could not get it done either. Always contested catches.
Jimbo is a great recruiter and great with the kids it appears. Do what you do well. I think their D is awesome talent wise but Leach in his interview basically said that ATM was fairly consistent in what Leach thought they would do and because Miss ST. o line played well they had no problem moving the ball.
Alabama game should be fun just because the back and forth this summer. I will say I think the ATM players will play very hard for their coach. If they dont... thats a bad sign. I think they will. Imo they will play for Fischer under almost any circumstances. He is a leader.
you were right about the kids playing hard as they certainly did. haynes tried but he just doesn't have pocket presence or the ability to make the right reads. at least some of the true freshman started to show something. it will all be for naught if fisher can't figure out his QB situation. as UT just found out, a great QB can make all the difference.

The kids definitely play for Fischer. But frustration can set in with the offense. I was very impressed with the ATM secondary. Those guys not only cover well they bring a wallop.
Aside:
serviceable backup like Card. ATM, Bama, OU found out how ugly it can get. Card has been at the school for a while and I think he has done well at school. He will never be a pro but he can come in as a backup without the team falling apart. If he really wants to play every Saturday he must leave. But if he realizes his real school situation and the NIL money comes through… I’m dreaming here…
Malik Murphy is definitely gone unless he wants Sark/Millwee coaching for another year.
I think the two games I watched, Texas and Texas ATM, illustrate how important backups are. King is gonna get killed back there Imo if he has another game like that. Imo he takes way too long (baseball pitcher to release the ball). And looks like he could get killed running. (He is fast but not elusive and he is a long thin body to crush. The QB for Alabama, Milroe cannot throw to the Bama receivers that take too long to get open. Alabama must have Young in there. Alabama will lose without Young. ATM figured out how to play Milroe… Dare him to throw and bring pressure in lanes that secure the scramble. And Gabriel apparently has pure trash backing him up for Oklahoma. (Their problems are much deeper than ATM or Bama)
Texas fans can get hyped but they will lose at least another conference game Imo. The Big 12 is solid the rest of the schedule. Away games are tough for this Texas group apparently.

That was good coaching by special teams because I think it would have worked.
Well it did work, but Im not sure if the fair catch signal effected the recovery by Tech.
It was also a nice little puff ball kick.
Blake
10-10-2022, 07:17 PM
It was perfectly executed by Tech.
Except Ok St called fair catch, got the ball plus penalty yards for tech interfering with the catch.
It's retarded because the intent of the rule was to discourage the long kickoff because of injuries due to players running 20mph into each other

Yep.
but it also prevents a guy trying to field what was a perfect bloop onside kick from getting killed by multiple players.
That was some skill to be able to kick the ball perfect height and short.

Well, that potential for injury still applies to a reasonable extent here so I have no problem with the call and the rule as it exists. Let's not forget that an on-side kick is really an exploitation of the rules to begin with when the obvious intent of the kickoff is supposed to be a transfer of possession.

If that was the obvious intent, then the ball wouldn't have ever been deemed live on kickoffs. It'd be the same as a punt

I'm also pretty sure players don't have enough time to generate the same speed as they would on a full length kickoff

Not the same speed but plenty of speed to lead to a serious injury if two opposing players collide going for the ball.
