Just an aging man yelling at the clouds here but since the changing landscape of college football has been a big topic here lately...

One change college football needs to make A fucking SAP is this 3.5 weeks in between games nonsense. It's archaic as hell and makes negative sense.

 

[Drubuck]

No, he wasn't wise he was just old. Can't remember his name.

Ugly as sin but one hell of a good cook.

Yack Lady maybe?

My grandpa always said that there's cookers and then there's lookers. You can have or be both. Im a cooker.

 

[SEREbuckeye]

Probably going to be without Tegra for this one, per Austin Ward.

 

[Jaxbuck]

I mean on one hand he's been the visible weakest link for quite some time, even back into 2024.

On the other hand, no one else on the roster has taken the job from him.

I guess I land on, the floor can't really be that much lower (and hope it isn't).

Plenty of time to prepare. I think we’ll be fine with Van Sickle.

 

[Bestbuck36]

Yep Van Sickle had been better for most of the 2nd half of the year. Still need Tegra though for depth if nothing else

 

[Bestbuck36]

I want Cryami. Cotton Bowl basically a home game for A&M. Want to see as many SEC losses as possible

See my gpa said something similar but it was cucker or fucker. He shouldn't have been talking to me like that i was 6. Plus you can be both. In fact you are both by definition. My gpa was really ugly and stupid. Hell of a cook tho.

Yep, methinks Gabe will rise to the occasion. Also hoping Tegra has a quick and complete recovery.

 

[SEREbuckeye]

First time play caller vs Matt Patricia… please let this happen.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Their entire offensive scheme is just a QB read anyway.

How many plays are there to call?

Once Hartline took the job, the option set for Day in this playoff run is: zero Hartline / leave the team, or 50% of Hartline with planned contingency / gap fill from Day and others. He's chosen the second. Makes sense to me.

The issue with the Indiana game was everyone thought it was 100% of Hartline, but then it wasn't, with zero time to put in a contingency, right after an already emotional high. It was worst case scenario.

This next game is a totally different setup. Everyone knows the constraints and expectations and have a month to work it out. I expect the offense to look much better

 

[Bill Lucas]

I just want evil Ryan Day unleashing the offense as he has done in past bowl seasons.

Neither of these opponents has the same kind of defense that IU has so I would expect the offense to look better as well.

Their current OC is staying on through the playoffs.
