    Oregon takes down Arizona. Excellent.

    Or maybe...just maybe...Mizzou is actually a pretty decent team. Two away losses, one to the #1 ranked team, the other to a top-25 team in OT...maybe they were actually able to do something themselves against the Sooners. A little credit where it's deserved, please...! :bang:

    It appears that we've become Lucy to Charlie Brown when it comes to the Aggies, or Texas to Oklahoma State. I am gonna miss the Aggies, they brought something unique to the conference that will never be replaced by a BYU or West Virginia. I never disliked them like I did Texas. Good luck Aggies, you're gonna need it.

    As for the Pokes, this is a much needed off week, followed by a home game versus Kansas, then road tests against Texas and Missery. But I can't feel too bad going into them after this last week. MU is scarier than Texas at this point. The defense is still a concern, but that's why the coaches get paid the big bucks, I'm not gonna lose sleep over it.

    And now for a little art appreciation...

    I'm honestly surprised he hasn't been able to get a shot at a bigger program despite his obvious social problems. I hope he doesn't go to NM, I really wanted him to go some place I would actually be able to pull for and they'll never be on the radar no matter how good of a coach they bring in.

    I as well am a fan (mostly due to the shit you and Flow have posted over the years). Better to get back in the game, even if it is NM then fade away right? He can always move on to bigger and better if he can find some... ANY success there.

    He's being blackballed, man needs to get back in the game. Expectations would be low at a place like New Mexico.

    I suppose you're both right. I'm disappointed but if a few years of this will lead him down a better path then I guess he should get started sooner rather than later.

    Speaking of the Lobos, you've been dropping the ball when it comes to the Bottom 10.

    Suing one's former employer can be satisfying, but it brings it's own consequences.

    I tune in to Tech vs Kansas at 1:50 left in the 1st Quarter and it's 20-0 Kansas. Now with 11:00 left in the 2nd it's 21-20 Tech and we just got the ball back again.

    Fast paced to say the least.

    I got no sympathy for a man that marries a Tide Fan. :bailey:



    Missed the SC game, but considering how well Clemson is doing, this ought to get us back in the top 25. Anyone that was able to watch, how'd we look?

    Fuck Harvey Updyke. You can't just say sorry for that. If he was really sorry he wouldn't need a trial, he would admit guilt and save the tax payers money.

    Agreed on all counts. When he's convicted, I sincerely hope they send him to St. Clair Correctional Facility in Springville. It's a literal hell on earth. Think Angola combined with Alcatraz.

    Oregon vs. Cal rematch: Oregon proves it learned from last years meet up and puts the Golden Bears away 43-15 :cool:
    On the scary front: LaMichael James goes down hard and takes a nasty arm injury.

    Oklahoma beats Texas 55-17.

    The Longhorns next opponent, Oklahoma State just put 56 points on Kansas in the first half. :bergman:

    We need a quarterback that can throw the ball.


    And by throwing I don't mean three interceptions in a row. :marathon:

    I hear you can get a pretty good one for a hundred thousand dollars or so. :shrug:

    I was sitting with the Horn fans at the Cotton Bowl. They were all expecting to win this game. The looks of shock were sweeter than nectar.

    The sex is just too good to pass up.

    Well gators got mauled by LSU. No big surprise there. you're using your 3rd string QB and this stuff happens. However FSU losing to Wake Forrest warms my heart.

    Vols get mauled by LSU next week. I am a fan... But I can be honest enough to face the future.

    His High School record is fairly impressive. But, I'm well aware that it doesn't always translate. Sadly, our other two choices are a Sophmore and a true Freshman. Hell... It wouldn't hurt to give Moseley a shot and I'm excited about Frazier.

    Apparently Mike Stoops has been fired at Arizona.

    Glad we got to contribute. (Twice!) :salute:

    Stubhub fail. Know who you are mass emailing to and maybe you'll get better results. Of course I don't think there is any amount of mass emailing that is going to help Baylor sell tickets.
