I'm digging how much stadium noise they have in this broadcast. It's not so clinical. It sounds like a football game!!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Good Lord this game is a war of attrition. Just put bubble wrap on everyone (both teams) for the rest of the game

🚨 Arch Manning sighting! 🚨

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jesus Christ, with how good we've been playing, I almost forgot about Arch Manning.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Me too! Except for the "almost".

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

LOL, that would have been an incomplete pass if not for the Tech receiver kicking it right to Bush. Right place right time!

HACKY SACK PICK 6!!!!!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's at least the 2nd mention of Tahj Brooks growing up 15 mins from the stadium. Wonder how many more times we're going to get that tonight

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I mean think about the odds. How crazy is it that there is a player for a college in Texas that went to one of the dozen high schools within 15 minutes of downtown Austin? (sarcasm highly intended)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

That was a hell of a kickoff return for Keilan Robinson!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just as I was about to make a comment making fun of the commentators for saying "John Wick" about 20 times, Ewers throws a pick. :/ tbh though, the bigger a lead we build the more nervous I get about the inevitable 4th quarter meltdown

Aaaaand as I was about to hit post, we get the INT!! Scratch all that (but I still want to call out the dull commentary)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If they're going down to John Wick commentary in the 2nd quarter, I'm curious how random they'll get by the 4th.

Also, I swear Tech games are the longest games in NCAA football.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I think the 2020 game went to 2OT and was like, over 4 hours long. It took years off my life

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Man, why did they have to bring up the 2017 game? That was 1 of 2 games I've seen Texas lose in person (the other was 2019 LSU)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It only took them 10 years to stop bringing up Michael Crabtree every time we play Tech.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'll be honest, I did not think Auburn was going to make that 54 yarder

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I just want to point out that Bert Auburn with the orange hair playing for the burnt orange team is perfect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Clear taunting. Man, I hate to see that stuff. Seen it a lot against us when we struggle, but it's weird to do when we're the better team

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I was bracing for a big Tech chunk play, but instead was treated to an amazing INT!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Not even 1 minute in and both teams lose a player to injury. This had better not keep up...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm not a tin-foil hat guy, but that call on the field as a Tech INT is wacky. Didn't look like that at all. Glad it gets overturned on replay.

As an SEC fan, I'm both excited and terrified for Texas to join.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I feel the same about joining the SEC.

I do think we get a lot more out of realignment than most though, since it actually restores our 2nd and 3rd most important rivalries

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

actually restores our 2nd and 3rd most important rivalries

If you want to start some fights within your fan base, possibly based on age, then the question becomes, “Which is which?”

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Glad Robinson got a TD. When he came from Alabama with Sark I expected him to play a big role, but he kind of got overshadowed by a bunch of other backs. Glad he's stuck around

Just took off!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That was one of the most impressive sacks I've seen. Very cool spin move by Bush

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I haven't been in the stadium for the new uh... decorative lighting. I wonder if it looks better in person than it does on TV.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I was at the Kansas game but it was during the day. They were trying to flicker the lights (and also did fireworks) but the effect doesn't really work unless it's an evening game. Some of them are now orange so I guess it's a little unique

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That was a handout. All the opportunities for PI calls missed so far, and they call it this time. The intended receiver was short of the pass, and the defender ran him over in the direction of the pass. I feel like the person trying to get to where the ball is coming down is always right.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Ewers has been making a lot of dangerous throws and it finally bite him
