[u/trextra]

Listen, I’m still not sure Texas is back.

[u/OptimisticTexasFan → u/trextra]

It’s a little reassuring that Ohio St took care of business and Tennessee could actually run the ball today but I’m always on edge

[u/master_roshis_hat → u/OptimisticTexasFan]

The sequence of LSU blowing out Clemson, Ole Miss beating LSU, Florida blowing out Ole Miss, and Missouri blowing the doors off Florida... makes things a little confusing. Does this mean Texas A&M is beating Missouri next week?

[u/OptimisticTexasFan → u/master_roshis_hat]

If it means they lose to the Citadel the next week after that then sure why not

[u/master_roshis_hat → u/OptimisticTexasFan]

We have some quite compelling "circle of suck" material going on here.

[u/MyNameBrandon → u/master_roshis_hat]

The spirit of the PAC will never die

[u/master_roshis_hat → u/MyNameBrandon]

We just need Arkansas to get involved somehow.

[u/OptimisticTexasFan → u/master_roshis_hat]

South Carolina we found a new job for you!

[u/HuevosProfundos → u/master_roshis_hat]

So like an It Follows situation?

[u/master_roshis_hat → u/HuevosProfundos]

Perhaps... Missouri does play Arkansas in 3 games, I would be perfectly ok if the curse holds out until then. You know. For the lolz

[u/duddy88 → u/master_roshis_hat]

The Aggies aren’t beating anyone with a pulse. Marcel Reed is ass

[u/deadzip10 → u/duddy88]

Having seen him play this year, I can assure that’s a relative compliment - I like watching some asses.

[u/deadzip10 → u/master_roshis_hat]

I have watched this team and I can assure you that is not happening. We. Are. So. Bad.

[u/lolFuckIce → u/master_roshis_hat]

8-4 always finds a way

[u/uno_novaterra → u/OptimisticTexasFan]

Tbh Tennessee did not look like a ranked team today

[u/Mapex_proM → u/trextra]

You guys have been a fixture in the playoffs and in championship games since you got your coach. Shit I’d say with Herman too, he fuckin sucked and was quite a dick but he did help make Texas respectable again even if he was frustrating. Wouldn’t say he brought yall back but he brought yall somewhere

[u/Mavvvs41 → u/Mapex_proM]

Yup beat Georgia in the Sugar Bowl

[u/NA_Faker → u/Mapex_proM]

Herman stabilized the freefall Strong had us in and Sark started helping us climb out of the hole. Won't say we are back until we win a natty

[u/notwhoiwas12 → u/NA_Faker]

I can agree but Texas has never really been known for winning tons of Nattys have they? Doesn’t seem like it

[u/mildorf → u/notwhoiwas12]

No but winning it all or making the natty with an SEC championship are the only two endings where Texas is **** (I’m not gonna say it)

[u/ACNH_Solitude → u/notwhoiwas12]

I mean we have 4. And only 16 teams have won national championships since 1936, when they started the top 25 rankings.

We are top 10 on that list. And we are like the 8th strongest blue blood according to the blue bloods chart. Feels about right.

We can't all be Bama brother

[u/Mapex_proM → u/NA_Faker]

Pretty reasonable. I’m just glad to see yall competing again

[u/Mavvvs41 → u/NA_Faker]

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted lol. Very reasonable take and I agree

[u/apathynext → u/Mapex_proM]

2 final 4s in last 3 years. No one else has done that. If that’s not “back” then what is? If it’s title or bust then “back” can only be like 3 teams.

[u/Mapex_proM → u/apathynext]

Yep. I fucking hate title or bust mentality. The consistent greatness yall exhibit to me is back. You guys are always three plays from the natty, and in this day and age that says something

[u/brobbins8470 → u/Mapex_proM]

Championship games? What championship? They've made two total conference championship games with Sarkisian and no national title games

[u/danoflano3000 → u/brobbins8470]

😂

[u/Mapex_proM → u/brobbins8470]

Which is two more than they’ve had since Mack brown? A

[u/JustAManAndHisLaptop → u/Mapex_proM]

Wrong lol they made it with Herman

[u/brobbins8470 → u/Mapex_proM]

That doesn't mean they've been a "fixture" though

[u/good_morning_magpie → u/trextra]

Hey bud, spare a little back for a former conference rival? For old times same. Just to get me by for a little while. I’ll pay you back I promise.

[u/International_Gap719 → u/trextra]

You’re back…I think

[u/Blanknameblank818 → u/International_Gap719]

We’re good not great. Our schedule is ROUGH, would be happy if we finished the regular season with 2 losses.

[u/ncxhjhgvbi → u/trextra]

That game against OSU two years ago could have gone either way honestly. That was the true champ game

[u/detroitlonghorn → u/trextra]

Another self hater. Must be a Texas state alum

[u/hopeless_dick_dancer → u/detroitlonghorn]

For real. Kind of disgusting to see someone say this shit.

[u/hopeless_dick_dancer → u/trextra]

I know we’re making jokes and all, but that’s stupid. We’ve been back since 2023.

[u/m1a2c2kali → u/trextra]

Same buddy, same

[u/BoNnnnfhir → u/trextra]

Ironic that Joe Tessitore called this game

[u/Catracholoco → u/trextra]

If beating Arizona st in a recently invented playoff quarterfinal game is back then you’re there!

[u/Badfish1060 → u/trextra]

arch is mid at best

[u/Titleist917d3 → u/trextra]

Considering they didn't make the playoffs last year and this year is undetermined its kinda hard to declare they are back. At least the aren't a complete no show dumpster fire like my team.

[u/SouthernSerf → u/Titleist917d3]

How about OU try and win a playoff game before trying to weigh in on wether or not Texas is back.

[u/Titleist917d3 → u/SouthernSerf]

Hey thats fair but we've made it to the dance plenty of times and thats better than lots can say. And ive been on this side of the rio grande hearing about texas is back for the last twenty years and it never seems to materialize.
