Just goes to show you he's been under a critical eye and microscope and dry-hated on by spurned lovers and resentful fan bases for choosing the rolex-wearing, limosuine riding, WOO, University of Texas at Austin!

Texas, once again, is no where near their ranking. And at the end of the season, it will be proven, again, they were not that good.

Tennessee could very well win. Texas is favored and "should" win.

But it won't mean anything if or when they do. It won't change Texas' status or legitimacy of being any better.

But if they lose......they will be exposed Big Time, once again as they usually are! Everyone accept TransU fans know the above well as historical fact.


Ah the old lose/lose situation again, eh? You win and it's "you haven't played anybody and it doesn't prove anything, UTk sucks" and if you lose, "see? UT sucks, they lost to UTk and barely beat the #1 team in the country at home and Arch stats put him in the middle of the pack of SEC QB's!"

I know it's a bitter pill to swallow, but Davy Crockett made a choice to die, he'd rather die fighting for Texas than live in Tennessee.



What a bad decision. His great great great grandkid could be working in Accounts Payable in a Gas station truck stop company had he stayed, the only industry that adds to the GDP in Knoxville. I think they are still a net negative once you calculate all the addled oxycontin people and government pay roll takers.

The real question is, who would you rather have:

Marcel Reed

or

John Mateer

When I got my acceptance letter.

I was a bigger Notre Dame fan as a young fella.
quote:

That’s just smart. This committee is a clown show that only cares about overall record.


This, it's lost on nobody that if UT didn't schedule Ohio St. last year and instead scheduled Rice or Louisana Monroe, we were in the CFP.
Aggy getting big dogged in 9 out of 10 academic rankings and lists every year is never not funny, despite the pragmatic reality is that UT is 1a and A&M is 1b for the majority of Texas kids and families.

I'm one of the rare Texas Exes who would be fine with my kids going to A&M because a) it's impossible to get into these days as a merely above average guy with a high HHI and b) in all my professional experience all over this state, Longhorns and Aggies are both productive, high earners and in real life Aggies aren't as insufferable as they are on these messageboards.

Lsu for sure If they lose Kiffin may be run out of town already No patience in ole Baton Rouge


I actually disagree bigly with this take. If there is one defining characteristic of LSU fans that I’ve seen the last 4-5 years it’s an almost irrational loyalty and patience in the face of reality. You had posters on here supporting BK into that final season and delusions persisted until about 90 days before he was fired.

Lane being a bigger personality is their Brawndo and just gives LSU all the more electrolytes they need.
I asked this question last week (granted, after a win)

quote:

Is there anyone out there who still will say they would prefer Marcel “defenses are hard to” Reed over Arch?

It was odd to hear that position last year when it was empirically shown that Marcel play cost them the playoffs and plugging in Arch play at the end of the season they win games, but after week 2 are there still Marcel believers?


and got this all-time great answers:

@jayag - Reed is good. You have Arch.

@aggiearchitect - He’s cheaper than Arch with probably similar results.
He’s cheaper than Arch with probably similar results.

@oldmarge - I would not want arch Manning as a quarterback, all he has going for him is his feet, maybe he’ll continue to improve but right now he does not like look like a 4th-year quarterback which he is

--

So for this week, to avoid the "whaboutism" and equivication, the question is simply:

What about Marcel Reed experiment is going right in the Year of our Lord 2026 and what do you want to be salvaged and what do you expect to see changed in order to save the season?

Does this thread bump?
quote:

Not at all. Have you looked at the price of tickets for Texas road games? Our game in Knoxville is the second highest in the nation. Look at the ticket prices in Baton Rouge for our upcoming game with LSU. At The University of Texas, we never lack for attention.


lol at the OP's premise...

Even with all the melodrama between the kissing cousins of LSU and OM, nobody really outside of the South cares about two drunk hillbillies fighting over a pregnant woman with an ankle monitor over who the daddy is.


Now lookee here, I ain't exactly sure what a Screwston is but I think you have a Screwloose!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
I could put a pop knot on your head big enough to hitch a boat to

I see you are in McKinney. I'm not too proud to go meet you at a Sonic on 380 over there, how big a boy are ya?
I wonder why HollyRowe-gate has been all over the national news and all anyone wants to talk about. Pathetic trying to find something to criticize and not acknowledge the greatest win in college football in 2026.

Texas has the most tremendous history. #1 in the nation. Spans a regional interest unlike LSU & OM (NOT national brands, very sleepy outside of the delta and antebellum).

Texas is LEADING the SEC and HAS since joining.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

aggy 2027, that's who'll come calling. Reed is holding them back currently.


I definitely think it's Aggie who is going to be willing to outbid everyone next year after this year they are likely to have as everyone wakes up to QB play needing to be a priority for 2027.

The question is, does anyone else have the stomach to get in that bid war with Aggie
