I logged in this morning to ask king, what now? You answered with the Butch Davis meme. I guess I will miss the airplane banners... They are as good as the College GameDay signs.

Did you see any of the Clemson-Miami game? There is hope for Arkansas; none for Miami...

Hang in there king. Put your U gear in the back of the closet for awhile and find another team to pull for... That works well for me and Mr Buddy Garrity!  Of course,  you will also be labeled as a t-shirt fan! The U will be back, but it's gonna be awhile. 

baddog, I was thinking that after the Bama game. Allen had meltdown last week, and completely destructed last night. I used to criticize Urban Meyer for babying Tebow, but watching Sumlin let Allen burn uncontrolled is worse. That was the ugliest  SEC game I've seen. Poor play is one thing, but the poor sportsmanship was worse. I expected an offensive shootout, but got a dumpster fire instead.  All the Ags that threw rocks at Strong and Texas are looking silly now...

I'm not completely sold on Goff, although he might be the best college QB out there. Meanwhile,  the Houston Browns continue to flounder...

Miles will run the wheels off the Fournette wagon, because it's his best chance to win. Putting up gaudy numbers every week makes him the Heisman favorite too.

Mallet will suffice for now. The bigger holes are the defensive secondary and running back. Didn't see the game this weekend,  but I don't believe Winston was sacked. Where is the pass rush?

Jones, Beckham then Dez.

Not sad to see bawlin' Boehner go. Wait and see who they replace him with. I have no confidence in the Republican party leadership. 

Well, there is that!

Cowboys are Houston North. No QB, No RB, and one superman on the defense. 

Wow! I somehow missed Elston's passing. I've been bummed all day about Milo. "Holy Toledo, what a play!" RIP Milo.

I thought this game was ugly! Way too many penalties from both teams. WOS should have beat us by a couple more scores. I believe that this game did expose some weaknesses for both teams. Did see a lot of positives too. Jack Dallas has matured a lot since I saw him last year. What a quarterback!  KJ Dad, your son had a good game too! Good luck to the Mustangs this season.  I will try to see y'all again in the playoffs. The Indians will bounce back, too. A couple of weeks to iron out the wrinkles and it will be fun again.

Mac, I had planned on going to this game, but tickets were selling for around  $300 and up in the upper deck. I will be watching from my recliner and I hope the scalpers take a bath on these tickets. I like the idea of neutral site games, but am not going to pay lots of money for tickets. I love college football, but don't have the means to run with the big dogs.

Go with your heart!

I disagree dove, I don't believe anyone is minimizing her as an individual.  I just don't see why you would put her on a pedestal or name a street after her. She made some poor decisions that landed her in jail and she took her own life. 

I don't  know how many of y'all watch Hard Knocks on HBO. I've really enjoyed the series covering the Texans. I had only watched a previous episode,  the Falcons, I think,  and was bored by the show. I believe I'd watch anything that has JJ Watt in it though...

I've like O'Brien better than Capers or Kubiak, but after watching HBO, I like him more. He does have a potty mouth,  but I kinda do too, so I don't hold that against him. Are any other Texan fans watching,  or am I  lone wolf here? 

Good luck this season with the show gentlemen!  Looking forward to making a couple when I can. I can't be there tonight, though.

Liltex, prayers are with you on your surgery.  Get well soon!

We celebrate Columbus Day because he hung himself in jail? New tobie, you can do better than that. 

C'mon Wildcats! The Texans almost made the playoffs with Fitz QB'ing. I think O'Brien can do well with what he has. I still advise you against betting MBG. I  ought to go ahead and buy Buddy a burger. That's how I've started the last couple of seasons. At least I can have a burger too instead of crow...

I believe sportswriters would put USC, Ohio State and Notre Dame in the top 25 even if they couldn't field a team. At least Ohio State is deserving of their ranking.

I think this is misguided at best. A street should be named after someone that made a positive contribution. There is nothing positive about the Sandra Bland death. She was not a martyr. She hung herself. I don't understand why they want to do this.

C'mon Dove!

Maybe I misremember as the Democrats say, but "your people" wouldn't let him join the Congressional Black Caucus (a racist organization NOT listed by the SPLC), because he was a Republican.

I like J.C. Watts, and he may be the best congressman ever to run the triple option!

I'm looking forward to Saturday night and catching the first 1/2 hour of the UT-Note Dame game before switching and split screening the Bama-Wisconsin game. It's been too long!
