No fucking way TCU and Baylor are top four.

No ******* way TCU and Baylor are top four.

Preseason polls are meaningless. They'll have to play each other thanksgiving weekend in TCU (which I'm going to try to go to this game).

Things always have a way of working out in the end.

Sure they do but damn.
Should be a great game to go see though.
I wonder if Arts troubles are gonna affect the team.

Doubt it.

 

[Woody4daTide]

Doubt it.

Do you live in that area?

 

[planomateo]

I've lived in Texas for 13 years now, I'm about 25 miles North of Dallas in the burbs.

 

[Woody4daTide]

Is there a "feel" for how that situation will turn out? I'm assuming there are some Baylor grads and fans in north Dallas.

 

[planomateo]

No idea. I don't know many Baylor folks, its a small school like TCU. This area is mostly Texas or Texas A&M fans.

On our 2015 schedule, we have 3 creampuffs and 9 real games. 7 of the 9 are on this pre-season Top 25 list. If we are a 1 loss team (or better) coming out on the other side, we had better get into the 4 team playoff!

exactly! presason polls are, in my opinion, like game statistics. they only matter if you win the game (or the national championship, as it were).

May have already told you this but spent a week in Richardson for training at their Samsung telco plant. Also spent a few days in Keller with my best friend's sister for the Bama-UM game. Going back next year for the Bama-USC game.

 

[PhillyGirl]

Just more motivation.

Yup, hit me up if you're ever in town again.

 

[252BAMA]

Just do not understand the barn and aTm rankings.

2014 record - both 8-5 - Even (actually aTm won the tie breaker)
2014 HtH - at barn - aTm won
2015 HtH- at aTm - advantage aTm
Returning starters - barn 12/aTm 15 - advantage aTm
DC change - Muschump - Chavis- advantage aTm (Even at best/worst)

:eyeroll:

 

[planomateo]

Yup, agree @252BAMA. Not to mention Chavis's D is much easier to adopt than Muschamp's. And TAMU has committed to running the ball.
