ESPN's College Gameday

Really glad they moved the set back to the South Mall after having it next to the LBJ Presidential Library the last several years. The Tower makes a much better backdrop than DKR. Although I don't love that they used Smokey the Cannon to blow a hole through Beck's jersey. I was at Gameday in 2019 when they did that to Joe Burrow's jersey and remember how that turned out...

Technically, do Army and Navy have unlimited NIL money provided by us taxpayers? πŸ€”

Michigan @ Illinois

Not sure if Illinois' unis are a crime against humanity or a brilliant fashion statement

^12^Georgia @ ^1^Texas

Georgia may be fast on the streets, but our players are faster than theirs on the field. Horns by a million

Texas is getting embarrassed. Nuts.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

lmao @ emo Bevo. That's quality content there

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I had never seen that before and it made me chuckle. Unfortunately that's been the highlight of this game for me thus far

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

OK y'all, I've got to make an important meeting early in the morning so I have to get to bed. If (when) Texas loses, I will update the banner but it's going to be in the afternoon tomorrow

Reports of HEB-UT's demise may have been exaggerated.

Tangentially, I had their quick-service BBQ restaurant's brisket today. The fatty is much better than the lean, but overall not bad at all, and the brisket baked beans are an excellent side.

Not sure I agree with putting in Manning, it's the oline not protecting Ewers that's the problem...

Calling a TO only 10 seconds into the game? Okay...

Official put a little mustard on that flag lol

I genuinely thought it came out of the stands at first and was ready to go full Zapruder film on trying to find the perpetrator

Carson Beck is an outstanding quarterback

Says Herbie, on the play Beck throws his 2nd INT (which should have been his 3rd) in the first quarter

UK @ UF

I'll watch this one so y'all don't have to. Florida opens the scoring with a FG.

Time for my biased Miami review. Their offense is top notch, and can keep them in any game. Their defense and special teams are absolute garbage.

Without Cam Ward, this team would probably be 3-4, unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Watching I was just blown away by Ward, he's got my non existent Heisman vote right now. Watching him reminded me of Young in the 22 TSIO game where he was the only reason that game wasn't a blowout for us

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

This one is shaping up to be a good one, all tied up early in the 4th.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Good Lord that was the worst tackling I've ever seen

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

There is no way that Miami is yet again going to come down to a review late in the game

Refs just handing the game to Georgia

Wow! I don't think I've ever seen a refs change a call like that holy crap

At the LSU-Arkansas game in Fayetteville, Arkansas, a major water main has caused major damage to the main intersection used for going to parking on campus. Plan accordingly.

Yikes! 🌊

There's a reason why our state motto is "While I breathe, I hope" because damn it, SC is making me feel hope again...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Watching Army for the first time this year and they are unlike any Army team I've ever seen. They can make awesome downfield passes, but still haven't lost their ability to churn out yards and slowly march down the field either. I love it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

At this point in the season the only thing that I want is for Navy-Army to be an undefeated match-up.

Indiana @ Nebraska

The stat that Indiana leads the series all time 10-9-3 threw me for a loop, but looking it up it's because Indiana won 7 consecutive meetings in the 1940s...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Our (Nebraska's) second half performance does not give me any hope for the rest of this game.

ND v GA tech-

Irish handle it. Not the best performance I guess but it worked. I blame the white pants.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Texas is back... in the garbage.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I guess the refs decided that they've flagged LSU enough. No more penalties for them?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

^15^ LSU @ Arkansas

Would really love an upset here, for reasons

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I'm just here to make my weekly "Neal Brown is a fucking clown" comment. Like seriously, 45-10, except we got a pity TD to make it 18 and they scored with 25 left and they didn't give it to them. It's so tragic I spent $1k on season tickets to watch this bullshit. 1 1/4 enjoyable games at home. Watched us die against Penn State (with a 2 hour weather delay). We beat Albany. We beat Kansas (and looked like shit for 3 quarters and also had another 2 hour weather delay). Got the shit kicked out of us at a night game by ISU. Got the shit kicked out of us even worse tonight by KSU. Only have Baylor and UCF left; Baylor just beat up on Zona, and UCF plays ISU way closer than we did.

This team is painful.

TCU @ Utah

I'm too old for the B12 to have late games, especially when the Frogs shit the bed with a red zone fumble. 😑

^11^ alabama @ ^16^ Tennessee - The Third Saturday in October

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Are the cigars a Smoky/Great Smoky Mountains thing? If so, I get it, but there is nothing quite so eye-rollingly bougie as 20-year-olds lighting up a stogie in a golf-shirt. 🀣

GG, Vols. Y'all are uglying your way to a good year.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Saturday_in_October#Victory_cigars

In the 1950s, Jim Goostree, the head athletic trainer for Alabama, began another tradition as he began handing out cigars following a victory over the Volunteers.[10] Both teams continued the tradition for some time, though kept it secret due to NCAA rules concerning extra benefits and tobacco products. Alabama publicly restarted the tradition in 2005, though as a result, self-reported an NCAA violation.[11] Every year since 2007, the winner of the Alabama–Tennessee game knowingly violates the NCAA rule and reports the violation in honor of tradition.[12]

Edit: lmao they've already updated the 2024 results

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Ahh, there we go. I should have known that an eye-rollingly bougie CFB tradition would have started at Bama. 🀣

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Bama's defense is the softer of the two and tends to give up yards and points. I don't know why Vol's O just hasn't gotten untracked here.
