Yeah but they still post graphics mathematically proving this is the worst Texas team since 1956. That really gets annoying.

The first game they kept talking about how they were going to shift their offense more to the spread because all the high schools in Texas are running it and they wanted to make the transition and recruiting easier.

Continuing the dumbing-down of the game from bottom to top. It was depressing.

I like knowing who made the plays, and I'm certainly not going to memorize their numbers.

And you can't listen to the radio for it, because the radio is tape-delayed for 4 seconds.  Dan Dierdorf does the Michigan radio broadcast, and I can't use it. :bleeding:

Wow.  Talk about bad officiating.  B12 officials decided the  OSU-KSU game by awarding OSU a first down they clearly didn't earn (they were awarded a first down when it should have been 4th and four).  http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/13803765/officiating-error-leads-oklahoma-state-cowboys-touchdown-win-kansas-state-wildcats

Meanwhile, the explanation for the incredibly shitty B12 officiating was revealed (also in that article):
QuoteBig 12 officiating supervisor Walt Anderson defended the calls after reviewing the game, telling ESPN.com he was "generally pleased" with the officiating.
"Houston, we have a problem."  Anderson has his head so far up his ass he is using his belly button as a peep sight.

Oh, and this happened on the 25th anniversary of the conference's worst officiating blunder, the granting of 5 downs to Colorado so they could beat Missouri.

Oh is losing at home to BYU bad?


Come to think of it, the Mormons are nothing but trouble. Valmy has bad memories of losing to them, Nebraska loses to them in a new coach's debut, in 1990 Miami lost to the Ty Detmer version and lost a probable shot at a national title, PDH taught us how the Wyoming Black14 were sparked by a BYU visit and the aftereffects have severely wounded the program...Can anyone think of a really memorable big win against BYU?

Also, that Jimmer Fredette dude was annoying.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Unlike Randy Edsal, Harbaugh understands Forrest Gump.


Best Harbaugh photoshop yet, though, is:

Do you want to see the best team (Utah) or see the Huskies win (Arizona)?

Hell yeah! FUCK OKLAHOMA!

Sorry Mom...

But seriously Fuck Oklahoma. That was UT's biggest win in years. Probably since beating Nebraska in 2009. They kicked the hell out of OU up front. Joe Wickline worked a miracle this week.
