[SSVol]

Sure...right bruh.

I have a hard time taking anybody named Ham and DumbA$$ very seriously.

 

[engineerVOL]

Solid display of physics here too.

 

[Jackcrevol]

The real truth comes out in the end.

Confident Darrel Taylor set him straight on this last weekend.

I knew Memphis was out west, but damn they taking it a little too far.

Didn't Stanford and Cal just leave the PAC?

Reason is there has to be 55 minutes of play. The coaches agreed to shorten the game 6 minutes making the game only 54 minutes of game play.

That's one reason why I don't bet on projected blowouts always a catch in the rules somewhere.

rewatched the ncsu game last night....and this may have already been discussed...but what really jumped at me this time was as the game wore on and it became more and more evident we were going to win, the effort level, never changed. it was very noticeable on defense.

i was really impressed with how hard they played late. what i got from that is two things....
1. the competition level up and down the roster has been elevated. every time someone new comes in the game, they play like they're playing for playing time. and the talent level across the board seems to be up as well as there seems to be little, if any, drop off when guys are rotated in.
2. it says the culture is in a good place. im sure there's plenty of guys that want to play more, think they should play more, but understand what the deal is. so when they get the opportunity...they go try and make the most of it. and kudos to the staff for playing as many kids thru 2 games as they have. they'll get another opportunity this week to 'empty the bench' i think.

the sheer number of kids that have played this year is such a good thing for the rest of this season and in to next. i think this is what really separates this team from other "good" teams in the recent past, including the 22 squad. the competitive depth this team has is as good as it's been in 15 or 20 years. i think we've done well in the portal. i think the overall development this staff has done has been very good, and i think there's a noticeable difference in talent level, overall.

lots of football left to play. but this team, and this program right now, in my opinion, has the foundation of what you need to be competitive at a high level.

Will Anderson’s stats dipped two years ago and his 40 time wasn’t as anticipated at the Underwear Olympics. Still top edge drafted and Defensive Rookie of the Year. It’s why I cited “Mock”. Talking and writing heads who live off of mock projections are noted for being reactionary. Dudes making the actual decision don’t limit themselves.

Even the haters aren’t going nuts and kicking him out of the first day. But the same guys were mocking him as top overall or top five three weeks ago.

agreed.

It’s rough out here lemme tell ya

Interesting article on espn on why last nights south Alabama game didn’t pay

Might wanna rethink some bets you guys put on the Tennessee game tomorrow

Bitch move...they are going to welch if teams blow their opponent out by massive numbers and that clause is ysed, but if they don't cover I guarantee they will sure as hell make everybody pay

It should be illegal to do that...if they make a bet, then they should be forced by law to honor it...period.

I wish LG would make phones again. LG V60 is the best phone I've ever seen.

I love my Galaxy S10+...but sadly it is wearing out now for everyday everything use...but I'm going to keep it at home just since it has so much storage...and just buy the new one before I go a cruise in November to use as my hew everyday.

The whole thing should be illegal...what is to stop gambling outfits from paying coaches big money to cancel the rest of blowouts, just so the Books don't have to pay out MILLIONS in blowouts that they are losing their ass on?

Yes totally this. Night and day from previous staff.

Imo; why wouldn’t you keep playing hard till the end? Even in a blowout? Especially in a blowout! It’s a contract year… it always is. Pad the stats

I went online to order one for my wife today. She has an iPhone 12mini that has been eligible for an upgrade for quite a while. We have AT&T. If she had an iPhone 12 or a 13mini she would get an iPhone 16 for free. But they tried to charge me $15.99 a month. Screw those criminals!

I've had he same issue with T-Mobile. When Sprint was still around and I got my 13 Pro I was supposed to have lifetime $800 trade in value on my device. Went round and round with T-Mobile because on their site I was able to pre-order the Pro Max for only $8 a month (the site gave me $1000 for my 13 Pro). I thought "that's an even better deal", so I bit. Looked at the confirmation email and it said it was going to be $50 a month. Contacted them to see if that was until they received my trade in. I was told that actually I had to upgrade my plan to the most expensive plan they offer. I currently pay $135 for three lines and said I was not paying the $255 per month that plan upgrade would cost. They are currently offering new customers the next plan down for $150 ($180 for the most expensive plan) and would be upgrade every two, which is fine because I don't care about upgrading every year. However, they would not give me that deal because I am not a new customer. They then offered my $300 trade in, which I declined and told them to cancel my order. They are going to call me tomorrow. I told them the only two options I would accept would be the $800 trade in value promised, or the plan at the new customer price. We'll see. My view is if you can offer a deal to new customers you sure as hell should offer it to old customers who have been loyal.

Barring some shenanigans, and engineers are prone to shenanigans, I have met his daughter. She did favor him, so presumably is the blessed outcome of seks with a real female.

My wife is real, and she’s fabulous.

Heupel is gonna win a dang natty this year or next isnt he?

I don't know..there are several great teams in the way. I'm just thankful to have a program good enough to actually compete for a title of any kind.

Nobody really thought this was possible when Heupel was hired...anybody that says they did is a liar.

This team nay not win a title this year or next year...but it is a freaking nightmarish wrecking ball no matter what happens...and I am grateful for that.

I think we are definitely one of the 6-7 best teams....it remains to be seen if we are one of the top 3.

Okie game will go a lot farther towards clearing that up.

Nvm, not worth the click
