DeBoer stated last night that 10 key injuries influenced the results of Bama's last four games. Which injuries were really that critical and who is realistically expected to return by the 19th?

It also represents the opportunity to perhaps host an additional on-campus game and draw additional TV revenue.

With ESPN as sole media rights holder, it's surprising few are speculating the committee's selection for teams that bring higher viewership ratings.

The revisionist history is kinda funny. A Bob-Stoops-led team would still consistently rack up 9-3 type seasons. His last year coaching led OU to a 35–19 win over #14 Auburn in the Sugar Bowl.

Sark knew the personnel assignment moving into the SEC and had the 'Horns ready before their first year in the conference, dishing out one of Saban's last OOC losses in 2023.

Playing up (and down) to competition was a glaring weakness of both programs during the B12 twilight years. 2017 OU went on the road to beat #2 Ohio State, 31–38, but narrowly lost to Iowa State just three weeks later. 2019 Texas played LSU closer than the rest of the SEC did-- that game ended 38-45 from a busted play 3rd-and-17, when Burrow connected with Jefferson. Texas later lost to OU in Dallas and TCU in Fort Worth that year.

The potential in both programs was always there; now both are better for SEC weekly competition.

And everyone knows they got lucky to play OU with an injured QB, which is why Texas has been ranked behind OU since they both had 2 losses. Not one poll, not one… has had Texas over OU since both have had 2 losses.

Congrats on beating Bama and Tennessee on the road.

Mateer was good for 3 INTs in Dallas, he was good for 3 INTs on Gaylord Focker Field last night. If Texas played them again today, the result would be the same.

Depending on the results of the SEC CCG, the conference may send a healthy and ready UGA to the bye while paper tiger aTm, turnover machine OU, and rudderless Ole Miss get bounced.

Texas may end up going to Orlando to play USC, so you'll be entertained either way.

In order for Sark to lose his job he must’ve been caught with a dead girl or a live boy.

There are three or four events chronicling his departure and three of those occured before the first snap of the 2025 season. Most glaring are his 30 days of absence following the Cotton Bowl, backed by the results of this season and Saturday night in Athens.

The only way this works without losing talent is to pull the cord before the last game of the year or to announce his replacement at the same time.

I feel like I owe this bar a round of beers. :cheers:

Sankey didn't return his calls. :doublebird:

That's a hold you nutless tree
