It seems like the int’l team usually has a lot of talent that underperforms in this.

Is there a Europe vs the World event?

OU has the defense to hang in for a half or so. The problem is they’re going to be on the field a lot in this game and the rest of the way against an SEC schedule.

I’d take UGA to cover.

Most Americans regardless of political affiliation believe in climate change. They just vehemently disagree on the cause of climate change.


Just getting to that point took 30 years.
Nixon was also expecting the home team to win.

“Not so fast”

In Texas the state legislature has already gone through their furry panic phase. It was a wild and entertaining ride.

We’re back to worrying about the 1 trans person out of 30 million residents who wants to play boys soccer.
Prices in 2023: “Biden did that!!1”

Prices now: “It’s a complex geopolitical topic with many nuances that you wouldn’t understand but in a nutshell it’s all Ukraine’s fault.”
Definitely losing interest in CFB outside of Texas. And even then the emotional attachment is less than ever.

It’s quickly morphing into a minor league system with colleges attached to keep the fan bases interested.
Gas prices to $2 and Iran war over. $5k checks to all adults.

Immediately after the midterms. :lol:
As long as Marcel Reed is playing take the opponent to cover.
When I’m fading it early in a round it usually means a good day, at least from tee to green. Wish I could bottle it.

True. Desert heat is manageable if you stay out of the sun and take care of errands, outdoor activities, etc in the morning.

People that say the south is worse than the desert southwest haven’t spent a truly hot summer in 110+ heat. It’s the repetitiveness that can wear you down. The winters are great though.
There is the family and friends in “Ozark.”


And then there is real life.

The fact that this deal locks out non-NATO countries, especially Russia and China, is also very important.


I figured they were already locked out. Due to NATO, and we have a history of bases on Greenland including at least one currently.

But this is yuge and historic, I get it.
Iowa is absolutely a better program now.

Nebraska should be as consistently good as OU at least. There’s certainly a rabid and national fan base (at least there was).
Leavitt has more to work with but there are some similarities to John Mateer.
Texas has been run by chamber of commerce republicans for the last 35 years. Being very business friendly led to the “Texas miracle” and moderate voters appreciated that.

But they’ve drifted off into issues the average voter sees as either a waste of time and taxpayer money, or extreme.

Talarico has a history of working across the aisle at least to get things done. More moderate than many other dems.

Paxton has no business being anywhere near public office unless you like bribery, pay for play and corruption. That’s for starters. His own staff of lifelong republicans and Texas lawmen turned him in. Despite the consequences, they went public anyway it was so bad.

He is the exact opposite of “draining the swamp” people around here seem to care so much about.

The first band I really “got into” and have never tired of them.

B side of Ghost in the Machine is a personal favorite and so much of that album resonates today… they had so much awesome stuff outside of the big hits.
