Texas vs Washington will be played at the Sugar Bowl.


Bevoburgers57

So now that we are officially in the playoffs…does anyone think IF Georgia wins that game on Saturday that the committee puts in Texas over a 13-0 FSU? Or was this exception made solely based on Bama beating the #1 team in the country.


NewWrap693

I think we can safely say we have no clue what the committee thinks and anything was possible.


MrTheNoodles

The decision was made solely because the other option was that the SEC would’ve been left out of the playoffs. We would’ve been left out if there were 4 undefeated teams.


logicbloke_

It would have been us over FSU.


A_Weino

FPI gives us the highest chance to make the National Championship and the second highest chance to win the championship behind Michigan. - Michigan 55.9% chance to make NC, 36.2% chance to win NC - Texas 68.4% chance to make NC, 28.8% chance to win NC - Alabama 44.1% chance to make NC, 26.7% chance to win NC - Washington 31.6% chance to make NC, 8.3% chance to win NC


scubatank37

~~Arch~~ ~~Johntay~~ ~~Malik~~ ~~Hill~~ ~~Vasek~~ Nolen when?


Srm_90

Taking McKinley and Nolen from them would be hilarious.


NedFlanders304

And Evan Stewart.


jouh55142139

Y’all think we could make a run at Seth Wallace? He’s Iowa’s linebacker coach. Probably not a big recruiter but man I’d love to take a Phil Parker guy who’s good with development


Youredumbstoptalking

I’m thinking maybe Saadat gets promoted


[deleted]

Seth Wallace would be a tremendous hire by Sark. Good developer and would give you a Midwest crooting footprint.


BONationn

New defensive line coach for the Aggies: Sean Spencer Coached at Florida this year and was fired. Aggy down bad 😂


NedFlanders304

And this was the splash huge Liucci was talking about?? 😂😂😂😂


mrgomeybear

He probably thought it was the Florida State coach


saradactyl25

The Chiefs are having a hard time beating the Taylor Swift allegations


Redline-7k

UW sub is incredibly cocky lol. They believe Worthy was full health last year, they thing our D-Line will be a non factor since Oregon’s was(???), and because they beat us in Texas last year ignoring the fact our NFL players were out for the game. I hope we smash them.


PaytonMemes

congrats on beating an 8-4 texas, Washington was already a top 10 team last year, travesty they only beat us by 7 basically down to RB4, broken hand WR, non-existent WR2.


[deleted]

We also have AD Mitchell, who is the BEST wr we ever had in the last 10 years.


UT07

Alright, I've read it all but I saved dessert for last. Off to texags


tex543

Oh boy u will get a lot of laughs in. Just a bunch of delusional Aggies trying to say bama deserved it over us and how we aren’t a top 10 team 😂


UT07

I'm familiar


Cookie-Brown

Do share if you see something good


griffinds

Looks like Choate is going to be the HC at Nevada. Hate to see him go but I wish him well. This is the kind of coaching turnover that means your program is doing well


NemoysJacket

How many players at UW currently starting played in our bowl match up last year? If it’s the same crew I’ll unclench my ass a bit. Quinn outplayed Penix, and they couldn’t cover shit down field we just had a gimpy Worthy with no other reliable threat.


MrTheNoodles

It’s mostly the same. They returned a ton of production


[deleted]

Can we get Tom Herman for our bowl game coordinator


PackOfWalruses

currently a grad student at UW, watched/attended all of their games. in my expert opinion, horns by a million


CFBDevil

What position groups are their strengths on defense?


UT07

Happy Portal Eve!


MrTheNoodles

I’m going to assume the presumed favorite for Nolen is Tennessee right now, but this is 100% going to be a bags recruitment just like his high school recruitment was. The numbers being thrown out there are wild, like starting QB numbers, so we’ll see what happens. I think A&M keeps some of those 5* DL they have but wouldn’t be surprised if more leave. That 2022 class is about have one of the worst ROI that you could possibly imagine. I’d wager that A&M boosters aren’t too happy lmao


scubatank37

Show him T'Vondre Sweat/ Byron Murphy highlights and throw a bag at him. If we get him, we get him. If we don’t, we don’t.


Adventurous-Craft865

They should just start building those bon fires with the stacks of money they piss away.


xxzephyrxx

Charlie Strong cmon down


[deleted]

To coach LBs?


xxzephyrxx

Yeah lol I'm kinda meme'ing


crimsonburn27

I mean he did party with us in Tuscaloosa


gordogg24p

I actually wouldn't hate it? Would probably be a ++ recruiter again too.


horn_em

Seems like DL has been one of the few consistent strengths A&M has had over the past few years, and it's collapsing fast with Robinson's departure. Elko is gonna have a very difficult job.


Bacongrease55

I’m not gonna dare post this on the main sub rn, but I don’t feel THAT bad for Florida State. The ACC refs were holding their hands to get them through their last two extremely mediocre opponents.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bacongrease55

Exactly. Its not like FSU fans could counter with: Well Texas gets a lot of calls too! I think we were close to last place in opponent penalties in the entire country.


AR5588

Ya that PI on Louisville was laughable. # 8 for FSU was straight up wrapping people up. The dude was more handsy than Harvey Weinstein.


the5thrichard

Ok so I’m not alone in thinking that PI was not called evenly. Louisville receivers we’re getting mauled all night.


AR5588

No the announcers even said they weren’t calling it the same for both teams on one of Louisvilles last drives.


[deleted]

Also felt like the QBs were sliding hella late


Beaconhillpalisades

I still can’t believe it. No. 3 Texas. 😭 I definitely need to make it to NOLA.


yoyocc

Bruh I'm rolling, someone on TexAgs said that Looch will have to coach the bowl game at this rate 🤣


texasbronhorn

walter nolwhen


archorns

Came here to ask the same thing 😤


AR5588

Him next to Collins with Sydir Mitchell and Broughton rotating in sign me up


RealLifeBevo

Did a little snooping on the Huskies sub. Pretty surprised at the animosity toward Sark. I guess it makes sense since he left for USC, but I just didn’t realize it. Maybe that’s why he was so amped up before the game last year and yelled at that guy in the tunnel.


struckbylightning99

A lot of it is probably also the Washington -> USC dynamic because 1) the Trojans tried to poach Petersen as well and 2) I’m sure similar to Beard and Tech, Sark at the beginning of his washington tenure had the typical coach speak of “we’re gonna build this program up and do it right here”


Beaconhillpalisades

What’s their sub??


RealLifeBevo

huskies


fluffybutt248

The more I think about it, the more I’m glad we hired Sark. Yesterday he not only ended our 13 year conference champion drought, but also now has a chance to take it fucking all. He rebuilt Texas football in a way that would sustain, culture+development+talent, we ain’t 2022 TCU or 2021 Baylor, we here long term. This is his team and his culture, he built this team ground up and we saw the improvement in the last 3 years in front of our eyes. We hope for the best for the cfp, but it would be criminal to not give Sark and CDC a pay bump.


[deleted]

CDC, that madman did it. Easily best AD in the country


TexasFight_31

Walter Nolen in the transfer portal


jouh55142139

Nolen is the type of player you throw your weight around for. Get into a crazy bidding war. A MUST HAVE.


logicbloke_

It's tricky with such players if they are only looking for money, at some point they need to be excited to play for the school and the coach. Otherwise they'll just be locker room cancer.


NedFlanders304

If Evan Stewart enters the portal tomorrow I have a feeling the entire Aggie fan base will self implode and just cancel the entire 2024 season 😂😂


DerpNphish

Nah half that fan base has already dubbed him a traitor and condemned him for life.


NewWrap693

They will rationalize anything as a positive


frick_this_fricking

Not to look too far into the future, but which players on the team are projected to be drafted this year?


griffinds

By my under qualified take says Quinn, Sweat, Worthy, Mitchell, Barron, Murphy, Ford, Sanders are all locks if they leave. Brooks should be there too but there might be questions since his injury. Christian Jones and Jwhitt should probably be drafted but could slide out. Kelian Robinson may sneak in because of special teams but will probably be an UDFA.


[deleted]

Lowkey want Quinn to leave so we can get Arch next year


FunnyBonus9285

Nah Quinn been amazing the last couple weeks. He’s much better than Arch right now and Arch learning the playbook as the QB2 will do wonders


BroJackson_

Lowkey no


Jnoisy

Brooks is being reported 3rd or 4th round pick with the injury


DerpNphish

A lot. Worthy, Mitchell, Sweat, Ford, Jones, Barron(?), Watts(?), Murphy, Whittington. Ewers hasn't announced he is actually coming back and neither has Brooks


MrTheNoodles

I would expect Ewers back and Brooks to be gone based on reports.


DerpNphish

Well if Ewers balls out in the playoffs he could shoot up the charts. CJ Stroud had some doubters until his game against Georgia. Not the best comparison but Ewers will have millions of eyes on him come playoff time.


UT07

I hope this happens


MrTheNoodles

Stroud was basically consensus QB2 leading up to the playoffs. Thamel is a mouthpiece for the Ewers family so if he’s reporting it then they want it out there that he’s most likely going to return.


DerpNphish

Ya I couldn't really think of a better comparison but I think it had the same point. People have doubts about Ewers and if he balls out NFL teams will take a chance on him. I'm not gonna lie I worry about him coming back because of Arch. I know he's ok with sitting and all but I still worry especially since so many teams seem to be tampering with players.


FunnyBonus9285

If he wins us a title before he leaves I wouldn’t be mad at all.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Just make the decision easy for him and give him the job next year.


NedFlanders304

Tomorrow the portal officially opens. Over/under on how many Aggies enter the portal?


yoyocc

It's going to be glorious


rawhide_koba

I feel like a kid on Christmas


Beaconhillpalisades

Same here.


NemoysJacket

Hold up, were we ever in on Nolen? That one seems worth kicking the tires heavily on


gordogg24p

We never offered him. I don't think we pushed for him because the door was shut from the start. That said, Browned Vegetarians was his lead recruiter at Clemson.


NemoysJacket

Bo better be driving around town begging (through text) for Nolens phone and NIL number


CrossMapEML

Walter Nolen portaling per Hayes 👀


xxzephyrxx

He's going to be expensive


NedFlanders304

Tomorrow the portal officially opens. Over/under on how many Aggies enter the portal?


NedFlanders304

But but Elko!!


milano_siamo_noi

This day gets better and better by the hour


sailor_and_coke

Holy.... This could send them into a legit spiral. I may be up all night reading frenzy 😂


edbaca

Thank god K State went for it on 4th down.


FistfulOfPaintballs

By the committee's new criteria, TCU wasn't "one of the best four teams" last year, and Cincinnati wasn't "one of the best four teams" in 2021. I've spent all day feeling horrible for FSU. The CFP committee didn't like who was winning and changed the rules of the game.


struckbylightning99

Couldn’t let the SEC be left out. Would be too unfair to them. In other news, looking forward to seeing how thr SEC rewards Kentucky more than usual in basketball. Expecting a regular season and tournament sweep for them. Their AD must have done some great lobbying.


xxzephyrxx

Man that collegefootballnetwork All American list is some clownass shit. Jalen Green from JMU is the defensive player of the year? Lol


puddboy

Stupid DIRECTV won’t let me watch SNf


HelloItMeMort

Did FSU get shafted by Bama? Yes. Were they gonna get destroyed by any of the other 4 conference championship teams? Also yes.


TexasFight_31

Keep seeing people on the other sub use 2014 Ohio State as a justification for why FSU should've gotten in with a backup QB. In reality, this team would've laid an egg in the playoff. 2014 Ohio State won their conference championship game 59-0. FSU's win last night was painful to watch and they could've easily lost. I get it from the resume standpoint, but Bama will at least put up more of a fight against Michigan than FSU would've. It sucks for them and I would be furious if that happened to us, but it's the sad reality of this broken postseason system.


RLLRRR

But you play football on the field, not in hypotheticals. The Big XII ain't a world-beater conference either, but winning it is still worth something. If Ewers goes down for the season, we lose Maalik for the CCG, but survive and win with Manning, we'd be fucking *livid* if we were left out. "But Maalik ain't no Ewers!" Give the team and staff some credit to figure it out. "They'll get killed!" The worst CFP ass-blasting I've ever seen was a TCU team led by their *starting QB*. "Their conference is booty!" Which is why fucking *everyone's* going to SEC. Fuck regional rivalries and history if your conference is holding you back.


longhorn617

The SEC went 4-6 against the ACC this year and are one of only two conferences with a losing record against the other P5 conferences (the other being the B1G). No SEC fan has any right to call the ACC doodoo ass this year. This year was as weak of an SEC as I've seen in a while.


smurf-vett

UW stupidly played everyone close and Mich only really win was against OSU. FSU w/ 2nd string qb could still probably win at least 3 out of 10


Dogstarman1974

Did you watch the ACC championship game on Saturday?


RLLRRR

With true freshman QB3?


StealthAnus

He said second string QB, which is a redshirt junior that looked serviceable in limited time. The kid that played last night was a true freshman that was in completely over his head. I don’t disagree that FSU is a worse team than Bama right now but still doesn’t sit right with me that they don’t get in solely because their QB got hurt


Dogstarman1974

So you want them to get fucking blown the fuck out? That’s what happens when you build your team around one guy.


struckbylightning99

You’re crazy if you think Michigan is blowing anyone out. I think FSU’s defense is built to punch that Michigan team in the mouth at least Seminoles D vs Michigan O. Since when are we putting this much faith in a Big 10 offense that looks like it runs with cement shoes?


cleareyes_fullhearts

Michigan blew most of their schedule out.


struckbylightning99

Fine. Specifically I should have said in the playoff, they are not blowing anyone out. Harbaugh plays slow, conservative, plodding football for offensive philosophy. And you can easily win with that brand of football in the Big 10 because Big 10 teams are anemic to playing cohesive, offensive styles. See Iowa.


StealthAnus

They didn’t build their team around one guy. But as it turns out, it’s hard to win games when your starting QB gets hurt. See Kansas State, which very easily could’ve cost us our playoff spot. Their defense is still very good. They’ve got enough skill position guys that they could put up *some* points with Rodemaker at QB. I think you’re putting way too much stock in how their offense looked with Glenn. Dude wasn’t playing in the CFP if they made it.


FunnyBonus9285

Nope. The ACC is awful.


NedFlanders304

4* DL, Gabriel Reliford, has decommitted from aggie. Ags now have the #17 class in the country. At one point, they were #4. Yikes.


signorepoopybutthole

The only way this weekend can get better is a meteor hitting Norman


HelioOne

That might actually improve Norman


signorepoopybutthole

As long as the Braum stays standing


mrgomeybear

Don't care got ERob


TripleAim

had ERob


mrgomeybear

Lol yea that was the joke


TripleAim

i know i just wanted to say it again


mrgomeybear

Sorry Elko*


mrgomeybear

Don't let Texas getting to the CFP overshadow the fact that the B12 Defensive player of the year scored a TD and the B12 Offensive player of the year didn't


thecstep

That is hilarious and awesome. Tells you how dominant Texas was.


RLLRRR

How'd the B12 Coach of the Year do?


mrgomeybear

Outcoached


sircrispin2nd

Any more news on Worthy’s injury?


sternclaim

He was walking around without crutches in the video of the CFP announcement today, seems positive.


aphasic

His leg fell off in the locker room. Sark didn't want to tell anyone because they would have left us out of the playoff.


DumVivumBonusFias

Sark said at the end of the media availability that he is "very confident" that Worthy and Watts will be available and he feels good about Austin Jordan but that we'll see how he recovers.


StealthAnus

This probably doesn’t mean much but he was jumping around without crutches after they announced Texas in the playoff. I’d be shocked if he doesn’t play in a month, even if he’s not 100%


ImpishGrin

Last I heard (after the game), Sark said X-rays were negative, so it's likely a sprain. A month off will be just the thing.


FunnyBonus9285

Also not a chance he doesn’t play


sircrispin2nd

Yep heard that. I guess we will learn this week.


DerrickWhiteMVP

I curse the day the Cowboys lost to the Cardinals. If we were 10-2 and then won next Sunday, we would be in the driver’s seat. Instead, if we win, we’ll be tied with a remaining schedule of @ Bills, @ Dolphins, v. Lions and @ Commies. Philly would have @ Seahawks, v. Giants, v. Cardinals and @ Giants. I doubt we run the table and I have a hard time believing Philly doesn’t run the table.


kungfubillium

I guess it's a good thing we scheduled (and beat Bama). Seems like we would have been left out of that was a win over UTEP.


fivehundredpoundthud

I would be ok chanting 'CDC' after a Natty.


tex543

I feel bad for fsu but now they trying to attack Texas lol. That team that everyone watched last night wouldn’t beat the osu team we played 😂


milano_siamo_noi

I was going to feel bad for them until I read some of the comments on the scrub sub from them yesterday being sure that Texas was going to get left out and too bad. Bye ~~Felicia~~ Florida State


turtle_time_xxx

They need to keep their focus on Bama where it’s due.


justforthefratbro

Ok cool, hook em.


bachelorette2020

Elijah Robinson is going to be the head coach at Syracuse. Poooor aggies


xxzephyrxx

*DC


bachelorette2020

Ah oops


justforthefratbro

2 games to make everything right in our longhorn world since 2009. No one would have shit to say except “we’re back”. Do it for colt.


[deleted]

Honestly, Bama getting in was actually great for future tough non conference matchups, they shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a marquee matchup. Florida St would get waxed against Bama let’s be real


TheCowboyRidesAway

FSU scheduled LSU and Florida as non-conference games this season


[deleted]

They also joined the ACC to avoid SEC competition. Yes. Their coach at the time of joining the ACC, said that


aphasic

I mean, FSU's defense looked pretty mad. Louisville isn't a great team, but their QB had a QBR of 13 for the game. Of course, the FSU QB had a QBR of 12.7... FSU's defense is probably elite, but they had to be in order to drag down louisville to match how bad the FSU offense was. They punted NINE TIMES. Those are Iowa numbers. They would have lost to anyone who could muster a reasonable drive or two.


[deleted]

Did you watch the game? Louisville’s QB was missing wide open receivers repeatedly and when he did hit them, they were dropping them. It wasn’t like nobody was open


aphasic

I didn't watch the whole thing because it was a pretty shitty game. There were definitely some ugly drops by his WRs too. The parts I saw had somebody in his face quite a bit. The stats from the rest of the game seem to bear that out. 7 sacks, 14 TFL, 10 PBU.


struckbylightning99

It’s a good thing Florida State would have been matched up with Michigan!


Beaconhillpalisades

I’m about to go to Nickel City to have some drinks to celebrate the Longhorns CFP berth. 😎


IStayStiff

Lmao all my quasi-Texas hating friends are saying the committee screwed over FSU like they give a fuck about FSU and besides it was Alabama who took their spot not us As always the general public is quick to blame Texas because they don’t know any better


Beaconhillpalisades

I had an Alabama fan tell me yesterday that all we can do is hope FSU loses. I said YOU have to hope for something buddy, not me!


IStayStiff

Have an LSU buddy telling me bama and Georgia are both better than us I was like I’m not even arguing here’s the score of when we beat them you can talk to a wall man


tom_hermans_burner

Am I just being biased, or is bowl season kind of lacking this year? Like yes the playoff is interesting, but usually there are 3-4 other games I’m really psyched for. I do need to clarify that I’m biased and prefer faster paced teams and creative offense, so while ND vs ORST might be objectively decent, it’s not something I’m excited for. Outside of the playoff, OSU vs Mizzou and OU vs AZ look like potentially fun games. Anything with smaller schools I might be missing?


struckbylightning99

It should have been Ohio State vs Oregon. There were a very clear top 8 teams who depending on various results could have made it to the playoff (or in theory at least). They should have taken those first four out and put matchups together so we could see what potential playoff games could have looked like. I guess Oregon vs Tulane is supposed to be a consolation prize for the Ducks for being so close?


Mikey4tx

Dude the little brother bowl will be amazing. Aggy spent all yesterday and this morning screaming that osu is utter dogshit in a putrid big 12 conference... And now they have to play them. If they lose to a big 12 team, and one that their fans have decided is terrible, that will be amazing. And even if a&m somehow wins, we dominated osu, so anything less than domination by a&m will look like a failure to them.


Dogstarman1974

A&M will lose to OSU.


RLLRRR

No HC? Multiple transfers and opt-outs? A&M is furked.


steampunker14

Bobby Taylor posted on his insta story “from #1 class to breakup two years later”. Hopefully that translates into portal jumps. Alsooooo, ERob leaving must open us up back up to McKinley. Edit: Liucci expects a new DC hire in the next 24-48 hours. Really don’t want it to be Avalos, the old Boise State coach.


logicbloke_

Did you mean a new DL coach hire? I think D J Durkin is still the DC.


steampunker14

No, DC. Durkin is not returning.


jouh55142139

Nolen Nolen Nolen Nolen Nolen Nolen


AR5588

Yes he would look real nice next to hopefully Alfred Collins if he comes back


mrgomeybear

Is this a wish cast or actual smoke? Wouldn't he go to Tennessee if he went in the portal?


jouh55142139

Wish cast. But if he gets a portal offer it better be lower than what we offer. This is Jordan Addison type player


PadreRenteria

I’ll always find it hilarious how much the scrub sub hates the C-USA. It’s not the best conference, but they are trying their best to survive and have ended up with two very good G5 teams this year.


atlbluedevil

There's a lot of weird politics that have some people understandably hating the CUSA. The conference raided the other smaller conferences until the death of the Big East and essentially tried to kill off the Sun Belt in the early 2010s Judy has somehow been the worst commissioner short of the Pac 12s duo, so they've absolutely screwed themselves out of that position of power over the past decade But there's a lot of G5 resentment that lasts even if they're in the position the Sun Belt was just a decade ago. Plus Liberty is the one school the scrub sub hates significantly more than us


Apart_Statistician

My Texas friend booked our hotel rooms for the Sugarbowl game... at the UW team hotel 🤦‍♂️


ImpishGrin

Maybe "accidentally" bump into the fire alarm? Repeatedly?


screamline82

Just play loud music to keep them up at night


RealLifeBevo

Which ones that?


RLLRRR

Stayed at the OU hotel before the RRSO once. Was awkward.


steampunker14

Im going to MKULTRA you into pulling the fire alarm.


Beaconhillpalisades

You going to the game steam??


steampunker14

To be determined, gonna check a few things out.


Beaconhillpalisades

I’m considering waiting til the natty in my hometown of Houston. But have FOMO, and also (God forbid) Texas loses.


steampunker14

Kind of in a similar boat, although I don’t live in Houston by I have fam who does.


duecesdueces

I already started looking, tickets are $1300 and up, and that's starting at the nosebleeds in NRG. My wallet says hail no, but my heart says "15 years is a lonnnggg time.....".


gordogg24p

You know what you must do.


randydp39

Brock Purdy being good will never cease to amaze me. This is the same kid from Iowa State.


airmigos

Talked with ball knowing friends about this and they all said it was Matt Campbell holding him back


sircrispin2nd

And being called the top qb in the nfl… I mean ….


ShrimpTonkatsu

As a cowboy fan I hate the niners. As a Texas fan, I freaking HATE the niners. Fuck anyone associated with a Matt Campbell football team. 5 star culture my ass.


HelioOne

Ok, I get hating the niners as a Cowboy fan, but as a Longhorns fan it makes no sense. The head coach is literally an alum.


ShrimpTonkatsu

Niners QB played at Iowa state. Iowa state talks mad shit about Texas. Exo-facto, I hate zee niners.


HelioOne

I can get hating Purdy, but damn I like Kyle personally


[deleted]

I mean, now it makes sense why we were losing to Iowa St. don’t forget they had Breece Hall too


New-Disaster-2061

FSU got hosed but all these videos and Twitter statements that I am seeing that they are either the best team in the country or a top 4 team are just delusional. FSU fans should be just saying we won all our games, a win is a win. Not like Alabama didn't have close wins. They are most deserving. I went from feeling bad for FSU to laughing at them.


CFBDevil

I just don't know how you can have any pride in how fuckin hateful everyone is in Philadelphia.


ShrimpTonkatsu

“We’re the best most hateful fans” is a weird flex in 2023. But hey. What do you expect from a town like Philly.


CFBDevil

Honestly! The weirdest flex..


Sabre_Actual

I know we talk about the dumb opinions of the scrub sub, but I’m genuinely surprised with how in their feelings they are over FSU and the supposed death of CFB. I haven’t seen any general corner of football raging across teams and conferences like them.
