gently caress football and its stupid egg-shaped ball and its lack of using feet and its loving "student-athletes" and its endless corruption and its sexual assaults and its conference pride and its 114-year rivalries and its marching bands with stupid uniforms and its $8 12 oz. beers if you can even get a beer and its fans of teams that didn't even go to that college and its pointless noon games and its outrageous second-hand ticket market and its continued justification of the employment of Mark May and its bad referees.

But most of all, gently caress the Oklahoma Sooners.

You lost by one possession. Considering how Texas has been doing, that's not too bad. But maybe it was worse than the box score looked.

Mizzou went scoreless against a Gurley-less team, and that's enough to make me proclaim football good for the weekend.

After being a fan of texas teams for so long you have to know to stay til the end cause you'll either choke away a huge lead (Oilers) or come back and win (Rockets 13 in 33)

Nah, Strong's alright. I do worry though that he's gonna turn into a Muschamp who talks a lot about discipline and accountability when it comes to the kids and then can't field a disciplined team to save his life. We sure had a lot of problems just lining up the offense today for a team that's always talking about discipline and mental fortitude.

To contrast, I still remember during the Turner Gill years slamming down a dorm lobby couch pillow after KU completely hosed up against Texas Tech in rage. Yes, I am an absolute child about sports.

Also, apparently I was the only one in college trolled into looking at blue waffle by my friends, judging by this thread.

They probably crack the top 25 - although they haven't exactly looked to be playing their best ball against KU and TTU.

I know why nox isn't getting laid, its cause he left the football match early. Although I thought it was funny when Baylor fans rushed the field when we were ranked higher, they're still just not to used to winning.

Oh, the worst was being visited by my grandparents and great-grandmother in college, being in a hotel room with them in KC, listening to a static-y radio broadcast of KU collapsing against Colorado, the beginning of the end of good KU since that's the game where Reesing got his injury that no one talked about for the rest of the season, and I had to completely taper it down for my elderly relatives. That suuuucked.

Anyway, I've probably told that story before.

Okay, serious thoughts about the Bama game time.

There is no universe in which this was a good game. We had 66 yards of rushing. 2 turnovers. 2 muffed punts. A missed field goal. We basically only won because Arkansas hosed up more than we did, and probably got a pretty significant dicking from the officials.

Our secondary is young and inexperienced, and it shows. We consistently get beat on any route deeper than 8 yards. Our line looks directionless without our center, and gets no real push whatsoever on rushing downs. Sims looked confused this game, with lots of terrible decisions, throws into strong coverage, or just plain bad passes. Our special teams were our special teams. We played like a bad team. Regardless of if we actually are overall or not, we were today. There's no two ways about it.

Basically, this does not bode well for the rest of our schedule. MSU, Auburn, and TAMU all look very loseable, and I can see Tennessee turning into another 3 hour wet fart like this game was. We benefited from a weak early schedule, and as a result, are going to go bowling. In all likelihood, we'll get a pretty decent one, because we're Bama, and voters have our collective dick planted firmly in their mouths. It's my opinion we won't deserve it if we do.

That's not to say that this is a "lost season" or whatever, I want to make that clear. I'm not bitching about our season or our performance. Honestly, I think this season is going better than I expected it to. If you watched our spring game, we looked really bad. Really, really bad. We've put up a few really surprisingly strong performances, and I think that is pretty positive for future seasons. We just are lacking in some key areas, and it's going to hurt us.

Couple right in front of my sis and I (although they weren't particularly bad), and I was up on the third deck near the south endzone pretty close to a big cluster of Froggies. Got an earful.

Also, seating at Mcclane is kind of weird. Putting the visitors on the south endzone is nothing new, but I don't know why there was a huge-rear end clump of purple in the north side of the third deck.

I rolled my eyes out of my drat skull reading some people on twitter sniffing about how Baylor is too good to be rushing the field over such a pedestrian win the lowly #9 team in the country.

I more or less expected Alabama to be somewhere from 8-4 to 10-2 this year, it's just they've been bad in somewhat different ways than I expected them to be. They got around my jadedness shields by looking explosive on offense for a few games so reality is kind of a comedown.
