NCAA Rule on Substituions

I'm sure Gus has brought up this rule in off-season meetings with the conf and he was rightfully upset...as sometimes TCU had 30 secs to make a sub and their players were NOT going (or coming) on the field "promptly".

There have been multiple games over thr last 2 years when a head ref called a penalty on a D for abusing this rule.

OT: The Hammered Lamb trying to secure $150,000 in donations to stay in business

Many businesses in/around their stretch of road are struggling due to all the road construction and lack of available parking.

How much money would you donate to keep your favorite restaurant in business? (I personally would rather spend my $$$ in said restaurant than say just give them a cash donation).

Welcome to Big-Boy Football

Last night was the real entry into Big 12 football. That was awesome. TCU is a great team, with two elite Wide Receivers and a great QB.

First... our In-Game antics are some of the worst on earth. We have a lot of morons. Most of you should be embarrassed by how you act.

Legitimate Complaints:
1. FG Unit. What in the f*cking f*ck was going on?
2. Time management at the end of the half. What in the f*cking f*ck was going on?

That is it. Maaaaaaybe, you could say something about the DBs. But, we were playing a damn good QB and receiving corps. I wanted to kick that damn possession receiver (meaning: white guy) right in his nutsack. If I ever hear the name Bech again, I'm gonna scream. Dude was a monster.

This is Big-Boy football now. Every single play isn't going to be perfect. We gotta work for it, every down, every week.

The Good Stuff:
1. PACE. That second to last drive of theirs. Pace completely destroyed them. That boy wasn't made in New York City. NEW YORK CITY!!???!?!?!? (if you know the reference, you're old)
2. KJ. If you're hating, you can eat a fat D. I love me some KJ.
3. Harvey. He needs to be on that Heisman podium at the end of the year.
4. Gus's shit-eating-grin for the entire 4th quarter. He knew. I knew. Anyone with an IQ over 60 knew. (In-Game Thread Participants didn't know)

Time to rest your liver and get ready for Corch Prime!!

UCF Fast & Slow - TCU Horned Frogs Edition

I was all jacked up after the win last night I knew I couldn’t sleep unless I did the write up. I stayed up late to knock it out and then I woke up this am to check it out and it never posted. Not sure what happened but it was gone. I had to retype this am from scratch, so here is to round two, never as good as original but I will do my best…

Are you not entertained!!! That was a big boy win right there. We had to overcome some serious shit. Lets add it up... on the road, down 21 in the 3rd qtr, 3 blocked kicks, didn’t get any turnovers, no sacks, TCU QB threw for 400 yards and 4 TDs and converted 66% of their 3rd downs, at one point they were 7 for 7 and i swear each one was 10+ yards, and we WON!!! That is a character building win boys that this team can build off of...

Is this Gus’ best win?

This win feels really important. This felt like a very Big 12 way to win a ballgame. Beating a good team on the road in conference to start conference play could turn out to be a big momentum moment for the season. I know many will point to the bowl win vs UF but this one feels like a bigger step forward. It also felt like we exorcised the demon of the Baylor loss last year.

I have not changed my mind about the team in terms of what they are and what they are capable of. KJ looked exactly as advertised, RJ is sooo good, Kobe is looking like a man possessed. The defense has big problems still but I do think they have the personnel to improve upon last year when all is said and done. The difference with this win is that Gus took a step towards fighting off the “cant win on the road” problem. It looked like he was going to Gus it away at the end of the first half but they fought through it and had a brilliant second half.

I am not ready to say this is a playoff caliber team by any stretch but this does feel like it could be a springboard type win. I now feel really good about our schedule until we have to go to Ames. As far as the resume for Gus this has to be near the top for his UCF tenure.

OT- Here's what 2.3 Billion will get you...

The Sphere Las Vegas is set to open soon, they just started testing the exterior video screens... It's a 18,600 spherical arena that got delayed due to covid...Looks cool, but is it worth it? It cost more than the new Allegiant Stadium for the Raiders...I can see the Aliens now, "WTF is that?"

Football Coaches: Obsessed With Ass

https://theathletic.com/5351145/202...factor-evaluation/?source=user_shared_article

“A ‘high butt factor’ might be an NFL Draft prospect’s most prized asset”

Former NFL punter Dustin Colquittsaid the talking points at his end-of-season exit interviews with Kansas Cityhead coach Andy Reid were generally pretty uneventful, except for one.

“He’d sit down with me and be like, ‘You went to the Pro Bowl, and we don’t have much to say to you. But don’t lose your butt. Punters have to have big butts. As soon as you start to look like you’re going downhill from a physique standpoint, you’re out of here. Keep that ass going.'”
