Frog Horn is WAY cooler than the weather alert siren or whatever that Houston has.

Dana outthinking himself.

"This has blitz written all over it" = "drop 8 into coverage"

Never change, second-tier announcing crews.

I laughed out loud at that lol. He literally said “watch 16” and then 16 covered the guy he was lined up against lol

This score is going to flatter the Frogs. Took them way too long to put things together.

Jesus. Brando and Tillman are gleeful with their casual xenophobia.

I missed it. What happened?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

My memory has faded a bit, but there was laughingly talking about how funny Nigerian surnames are. Then I think this one was talking about a player who’d grown up in Germany and wanted to learn Japanese. The exchange was something like Tillman crudely saying “Sprecken zee Dutch” and Brando chortling something stupid along the vague lines of, “Is that Japanese for fumble?”

Nobody’s likely to get fired over it, but it was some powerful Boomer Nonsense energy.

The chin is part of the head. Still don't like the rule, but by rule he's gotta go.

I feel like TCU will eventually wear this Houston team down, but they look... meh.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Avoiding the Kick-Six... phew.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Now I feel better. Go Frogs! Throws like that are why Morris beat out Max in camp last year.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You are having quite a night! Better than you thought a few days ago I’m sure.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Both teams are still going to lose their share this year, but Frogs are (sloppily) taking care of business and I am stunned that the Gators held it together. Billy threw a little ice onto his seat, which TBF he probably didn't need until they looked so unprepared vs Utah.

Tim Brando needs to STFU. I still don't like that TCU hired Coach Tapefingers, but if CFB coaches et al have all agreed that Art is where the buck stops, at least don't start reminiscing about his crooked ass. That's how you end up Lebbying it with the old man on the sideline in team gear.

Umpire got ROCKED.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

When your offense looks meh, nice to have an NFL-caliber placekicker.

ANNNND, Fuck. Return for TD.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Refs hate to award safeties, and fair enough.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Holy shit I can’t believe the announcer was talking about Kendall “upholding the Briles name” and how “his dad, Art, would be proud”. Does he not rememeber what Art did (and likely his son)?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Phew. nice stop on 4th down.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Diving by a WR. New one for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Frogs still grinding this one out, but a LOT of room for improvement.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You watch, now that the Aussies are figuring this shit out, the punt will be outlawed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

C'mon Frogs! Gotta put Dana out of his obvious misery.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are the chances Holgo gets fired mid-season?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

If Tilman loses patience? Very much non-zero.
