The USG and particularly DoD are fully on board the AI train. There'll still be a requirement for human management of the systems, but it can make complex tasks very simple, fast, and efficient with little to no error. The company I work for is one of the big defense contractors leading the charge on AI. Most people have misconceptions about AI thinking that it'll completely replace human decision making and involvement in processes. AI is simply a tool.

Yeah. That's video I posted above explains it pretty well. It'll basically be a personal assistant.

Example: you spill wine of your carpet. "Sally, I need someone to clean my carpet tomorrow at 2pm". AI does everything else. Tomorrow your carpet cleaner is there.

That must have been hell to sit through. Sorry, jave.

Re first downs. Didn’t Arkie start faking injuries every time? Or was that a different game?

They did fake an injury 2 or 3 times, but there were several times we ran tempo on first down and it worked really well, then we stopped.

A lot of our false starts were when we'd been running tempo and stopped too. Our OL clearly weren't comfortable sitting there till 5 on the play clock.

I'm looking forward to the Terminators being made so they can cull the human population. Good times.

January 2, 1939

UT - 17
Oklahoma - 0

The Volunteers had already earned the program's first National Championship, having been crowned by the Dunkel, Litkenhouse, Boand, Houlgate and Poling services for a 10-0 regular season.

When Robert Neyland took his Tennessee football team to Miami for the 1939 Orange Bowl, he didn't quite know what to expect from his team. An outbreak of an illness spread through the UT team leading up to the game.

The Vols found a crowd of 32,191 waiting for them at Orange Bowl Stadium and, though well undersized compared to their Sooner counterparts, used the speed and power that had defined them throughout the 1938 season to impose their will early.

One of many penalties on the day for Oklahoma backed the Sooner offense up to the 3-yard line in the first quarter. The punt that followed gave Tennessee a short field. Runs from Cafego, Leonard Coffman and Foxx moved the ball the 27 yards necessary for the game's first score, an 8-yard run from Foxx.

The Tennessee defense dominated play throughout the game, as had become its custom. UT played to the maxims that Neyland preached and played for and made the breaks. When a fumble came the Volunteers' way, they scored again. Babe Wood completed a pass to the OU 4-yard line, but a penalty thwarted the drive and UT settled for a Bowden Wyatt 32-yard field goal. The score moved the margin to 10-0 headed to halftime.

It was not a particularly clean game, with the teams combining for over 200 penalty yards, many from numerous incidents of "Slugging, kicking, heckling and wrangling with officials," as Knoxville Journal sports editor Tom Anderson wrote before noting that a press box consensus found Oklahoma to be the primary instigator. Indeed, OU tackle Gilford Duggan was ejected for instigating a fight with UT guard Ed Molinski, though Molinski was also escorted to the locker room for his role.

Tennessee continued to dominate play in the second half, though neither team managed a score in the third quarter. Wood capped a 73-yard drive with a 19-yard touchdown run. UT faced a late Oklahoma push that went all the way inside the Vols' 10, but preserved the win and the shutout, 17-0.

UT scored more points than OU had given up in the entire 1938 season. The Volunteers dominated the stat lines, outgaining the Sooners 260-94. The ground game was the key, 197 rushing yards for Tennessee, 25 for Oklahoma.

I remember that game as if it were yesterday. Such a great defensive strategist! 🤠

Totally fair, I don't think the margin between the two is so wide one is clearly the right pick and the other isn't.

And saying I -think- Chaz is more athletic isn't me saying Dalton isn't athletic or just a 3 point shooter or anything.

Here's a question.

Game on the line. Down 1. 10 seconds left. Which player do you want to have the ball in their hands?

I think I might slightly favor Chaz for the final shot, but Dalton can create for himself. I haven't seen Chaz create as many of his own shots.

We've been blessed to have both of them.

I mean in those situations I want the guy who has more length and can finish strong at the rim, something we know DK can do.

I will say though we've not seen it from Chaz yet, but it's in his game. At North Florida he shot 57.9% on 2 point shots of course not all were layups or dunks, but it's actually one of the areas he's underperformed at here compared to there. I'm sure a good part of that is better defenders.

DK though averaged almost 6 FTAs a game while here and shot basically 50% from 2PT. So if it's a matter of a 1 on 1 iso situation I'd go with him. Cause I know he can either get to the rim or rise above his defender. Chaz I think can...but haven't seen him do it much yet.

If it's a catch & shoot situation, Chaz.
