    Finally sitting down to watch my Frogs play their 9:30 central time kickoff from California with a --checks notes-- ACC team.

      ACC After Dark!

      Also, it seems a little chippy early. Already feels like the SMU-Nevada game from last week. Is there something about the west coast that makes Metroplex teams lose their cool?

        If by “chippy,” you mean the Frogs are playing stupid machoball, then yes.

      If I had a nickle for every strange interception off a ricochet that I saw today, I’d have two nickles. Which isn’t alot, but it’s odd that it happened twice

    TCU playing like ass, but the 300-pound DT getting the INT off the carrom is pretty darn fun.

    Just like last year when they inadvertently set Coach Prime hype into overdrive, sloppy play from TCU is making a school to the west look better than they are. If Sonny doesn’t have a good solid year of 7-9 wins, I think the goodwill of the CFP run will be used up and his seat will get pretty warm. Any SMU success will also play into this.

      Point still stands, though managing not to lose does blunt the impact just a bit, lol.

      Checking in now! Had internet issues so missed kickoff for these games. Can’t stomach watching ou so watching FAU @ Michigan State. In just the first minute there was a somewhat controversial call resulting in an INT for FAU so could be entertaining

        Yeah I’ve got to watch since they’re our first SEC game in what I predict will be a trendsetting game for our season. But yeah… don’t watch… RRS should be solid this year at least
