Official 2018 NCAA Football Thread

I've been gone for a bit... (living in Turkey throws me off). Do we have a pick-em this year?

 

Pitt has it right now according to a reddit thread.

Was in attendance at that game, man what a heart stopper. As a UT fan, I must say the Huskers' D was unbelievably stout and Suh was wrecking shop all game. Sure miss those years in the B-12

 

The good old days when we could guarantee a win against Nebraska. Now we get nervous playing fucking Kansas.

 

and get our ass kicked by Maryland, wonder how that will turn out this year.

 

unfortunately it looks like Wisconsin has taken Texas' place of beating Nebraska

Kansas can be real assholes at times...

 

15 days lol

 

Can't wait!

 

Can't wait. Funny how the rankings never seem to matter in this one. Doesn't always happen but both teams have been known to play well above their own ranking to stun the better ranked team.



All-time series Texas leads, 61–46–5

 

Jumping on another teams band wagon because your team can't get it done is sec level douchebaggery.

And it's the fucking Red River Shootout not a goddam showdown.

 

Personally liked it better as "Shootout" but:

Until the 2005 meeting, the 100th meeting between the schools, the game was called the Red River Shootout. In 2005, it was sponsored by SBC Communications, and the game was officially renamed the SBC Red River Rivalry, with the word "Rivalry" replacing "Shootout" out of a desire not to convey an attitude of condoning gun violence. In 2006, with SBC's merger with AT&T Corporation, the game was renamed the AT&T Red River Rivalry. In 2014, the name changed again and is now the AT&T Red River Showdown.

If you choose to not to recognize it that's up to you.

 

no wagon jumping here. I'm still firmly planted on my wheel-less burning wagon

I just know the soft spot y'all have for OU

 

Lol it’s not even fair . Bama was my favorite team growing up since I grew up in Higdon and played football there as a kid but for some reason my loyalty sided with Tn when I moved to Knoxville. Worst decision I’ve ever made .ever since I’ve been a fan my team has been terrible to mediocre at best . With it all leading up to this coaching search debacle . I’m telling ya man it’s not easy being a Tn fan . I still go back and watch the 98 season and some seasons before that And dream of a day that I might see a championship in My life time lmao . That’s all I got at this point haha. Pruitt’s has got me more excited then I’ve been in a long time so I dk we will see

 

Shit

 

Bummer

 

While that does suck as a fan and for him personally been hearing how James Cook has been showing out. Him, Swift, Holyfield, and Herien we still should be just fine barring any more injuries.

 

Welcome to the life of a Bama fan. Your team starts getting numerous 5* talents then they start dropping with injuries. We have already lost 2 LBs again this year with one being a 4/5* redshirt frosh that had serious high hopes and potential to be a stud this early. Then to stupid media starts to run their mouths and ask all kinds of idiotic questions and you start getting replies like Saban's.....

 

"oh, woe is me!! have pity on us because we get the best players but then they get hurt and we still win (get gifted) championships"
