It was only our second "real" SEC game, you'll have to give us a little time to learn the proper SEC way of doing things. :)


I think it's just us.

I view a thing as a "Big Deal" if it has repercussions.  That doesn't mean I think it was a good or bad thing, just not a Big Deal as I understand the term.  Without some kind of reaction or response or official act, it just is something that happened that passed in the night.  And maybe something SHOULD have happened, but it didn't.

Ergo, tree falling in forest etc.

Yes, we all know you're choosing to dismiss the assault on the sideline.  You really don't need to tell us for the 57th time.

My point remains, that I'll believe the SEC is serious about sportsmanship and sideline safety, when they do something about that incident.  Unless/until they do, I remain hilariously entertained by the "penalty" they've assigned to the Texas student section.

There are penalties for the piss bags we throw? 

I thought carrying the things around was penalty enough.

Perhaps if Texas students had thrown piss like a proper SEC team there'd have been no penalty? :)

Oh yeah, the other fan bases throw mustard bottles and batteries.  Sorry I forgot about that stuff.  I'm still learning.

I was just proud of the students for throwing their $5 waters instead of their $13 beers.  Smart kids.

They didn't get admitted into UT for nothin'....

Lost in the lopsided flow of the game, Carson Beck was a dismal 23/41, 175, 0 TDs against 3 INTS, for 4.3 ypa.  Dismal doesn't hardly begin to cover it.  Not sure I've ever seen a QB perform that badly whose team still dominated.  Maybe Greg McElroy in the 2009 NC game, but these numbers vs. that outcome is hard to top.

Ewers comp% and ypa were barely any better, but the rest of his stats look better than Beck's.  But the game never really felt like Ewers was outplaying Beck. 

Except for those 3 INTs.  Yeesh.

UT defense was given short fields to defend all game long.  They actually did a decent job.  I'd say both Beck and Ewers severely diminished their draft prospects during that game.

Beck has not played nearly as well as he did last season.  Part of it could be the absence of Bowers and McConkey, part could be the Big Head, etc.  He has dropped from a top five to maybe Day 2-3.  Bowers was an absolute go to guy in college if you threw it anywhere near him.  Beck had a few drops against Texas, but still, he was "mediocre" at best.

They should spend their efforts on finishing their dang stadium instead.  They're nearly a new joke at this point...."How many Vandy admins does it take to complete a stadium renovation?" 

The SEC Shorts Vandy character has been fun this year.

Pimp Vandy is awesome. It's sad that I must root for putting him back in his coffin this week, but them's the breaks.

Regarding the stadium netting above, I'm fairly certain it's a joke.  And it's a good one!

But in reality, since their entire stadium is the "visitor's section" they'd need a lot more netting to be effective...

At least Vandy is in Nashville, which is somewhat akin to Austin on a smaller scale, but still interesting.
