  • We seem to bring our the best in our opponents. It doesn’t look like bad D in realtime, but teams sure do seem to execute us. This TCU game has been painful on both sides, too.

  • prestitute replied to the topic 100% coaching in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago

    Agreed. The issues didn’t look like Xs and Os to me, it was that this team doesn’t look right in terms of execution and discipline. We have injuries, sure, and that is hurting us, but this team doesn’t look prepared for a second year in a row, and 2 years in a row is no longer just freak bad luck.

  • prestitute replied to the topic 100% coaching in the forum Football 2 months, 1 week ago

    I agree that it was ultimately coaching, but I don’t think the playcalling was bad, we just didn’t/don’t have a QB who was able to execute. Soooo many poorly thrown balls tonight. We moved it decently even though our QB was a wounded statue. The playcall doe the TD that got called back for DPI sas great, too. On a lot of this, Cam just couldn’t…[Read more]

  • Have you not seen most of these teams play? You think UCF has a functioning QB room? TCU jas an Ok QB, but the team isn’t good at all. Iowa St and CU are the only 2 teams left on our schedule with what I would consider healthy/good QB situations (though Hoover is pretty good as a player, TCU is a bigger tire fire than us). Our schedule isn’t very…[Read more]

  • Yeah, I have seen the schedule, and there isn’t a game that should be scary, but we obviously aren’t as good as we thought, either, so there are also no gimmes. I see TCU and Houston as both likely wins. I see BYU as a pretty strong possibility, too. UCF and CU are also both possible wins. Iowa St is less likely, but it isn’t out of the question.…[Read more]

  • Yes, and I think we will and will get better, but this year feels a lot like ’07 where things just don’t line up right. I think if we don’t lose the team, we rally and win 4-5 more games, but we definitely don’t get the season we had been hoping for or expecting. I strangely still think we will beat BYU. We just are just out of BXII contention,…[Read more]

  • Thanks for all the work you do on this site, Tony! I think Venmo makes it pretty easy. Maybe both a gofundme (for those who don’t already have Venmo set up) and have a Venmo option and just let people know which one you prefer.

  • prestitute replied to the topic Today has been nuts in the forum Football 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    Honestly, probably to 6 or 7, but sigh. The silver lining with SMU playing well and Iowa St still winning is that we have a few games that could be marquee type game. Hell, if they haven’t lost more than 1, maybe even a game day or big noon for the holy war would be possible (or foe the Iowa St game if the same is true.

  • prestitute replied to the topic AP in the forum Football 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    Yeah, and if we can turn things around from last week, we have a road ahead that now has a lot of opportunity. BYU may still be ranked by the time we play them, Iowa St is stringing together wins, too. With all the cannibalism across conferences, IF (and it’s a big if) we were to get to 11-1, our schedule probably ends up looking a little better…[Read more]

  • prestitute replied to the topic BigXII Contenders in the forum Football 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Agreed, but we have been winning without 3 of our top players. My comments on us being favored by 10+ most of the rest of the way are based on us as having our core healthy on O and D. We could lose any given week, I just think that if we get all our key players back and stay healthy we are the fastest car on the track by a fair bit.

  • prestitute replied to the topic Love the Big 12 in the forum Football 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    At the top of the league, usually, but our schedule doesn’t look that different than many of our PAC schedules. Last year is the exception, imo, where we had a ton of top teams, but thinking of say 2018/2019/2021, we had maybe 1-2 games against truly top teams per year. That’s just my view.

  • prestitute replied to the topic BigXII Contenders in the forum Football 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Yeah, that is why I added that caveat of ‘healthy’, and this is definitely not a set in stone post, just what I am feeling/thinking after most of the days action to this point. I think K St may still have a great chance, but it seems like their biggest issues may be around consistency, and they already have that loss.

    Honestly, we may just have…[Read more]

  • Overreaction for today, but we have now seen a a fair amount of football. So, it looks like CU and BYU may both be contenders along with Iowa State. The thing is, I think that is more an indictment of where the BXII is overall this year. I think even without Cam, we can challenge to win this thing, which I did not think possible before the season.…[Read more]

  • prestitute replied to the topic Love the Big 12 in the forum Football 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    I think it is fine for all of us to have our opinions. I think we do have a slightly easier road this year compared to most years in the PAC as there aren’t as many true top teams in a given year. I thought KSt or OK St might be that, but they aren’t this year.
    Overall though, I think our schedule is pretty similar to most years in the P12 (last…[Read more]

  • I would take the other side of that bet. I think when we play Utah will win by at least 7.

  • Yeah, I was at that game and Cam looked hurt and off all game. I think he was still recovering from some of the nagging stuff from the USC game even, but his accuracy was really, really bad all game. Thankfully, foe the CU and USC champ game he looked much better.

  • Yeah, he seems pretty solid. I have been watching his BigXII shows, and he just seems very respectful and has solid takes in general. You can tell he as KState allegiance, but it’s ok with me as it isn’t a secret. He and Fitz are my favorite of the BXII stuff I have seen so far.

  • I think they are playing over their heads right now, but it’s hard not to give them the credit as playing the most impressive ball in the conference right now. I think they will come back to the pack, but I wouldn’t be shocked to see us play them 2x this year (I think playing Iowa St or UCF 2x is a little more likely though). At full strength,…[Read more]

  • prestitute replied to the topic What do we know about OSU? in the forum Football 3 months ago

    Yeah, I think this is the real start of the season now. I can’t imagine either of these 2 coaches have shown anything more than they had to so far, and I can’t imagine either holding anything back in this game. I expect to see a lot of adjustments and looks as the game goes on.

  • You are correct. I was thinking the late field goals were in the first OT and not near the end of regulation. I forgot that both teams missed FGs in OT1.
