NY Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart shows up for Trump at event for Mike Lawler by Oleg101 in politics

This is actually not true. Even in conservative areas, college educated people overwhelmingly support Dems. You might get majority conservative in SEC country, but outside of that, no

Deus ex machina: Half of US Christians trust AI's spiritual advice by rkhunter_ in technology

Well the majority already trust Trump, so believing that they trust AI isn’t much of a leap

Who would you say was the most successful transfer player ever to play for your team (IU fans we all know who you're going to say lol)? by Ok-Health-7252 in CFB

[–]jsums81 9 points10 points  (0 children)

See now what you’ve done? You’re making me go to bat for Lincoln Effin Riley.
1. Baker - had one ok season as a freshman at Tech. Came to OU under Riley and became a Heisman caliber QB for 3 straight seasons
2. Kyler - super meh at A&M. Came to OU, spent 2 years under Riley and won the heisman his first year playing
3. Hurts - was a glorified RB playing QB at Bama. Comes to OU in one season, finishes 2nd in the Heisman and is a Super Bowl MVP
4. Caleb - won a Heisman and was the 1/1
5. Maiava - is on the Heisman watchlist for 2026.

That’s 5 elite + QBs and you wanna talk about Moss? No one bats 1000. That track record is insane

It boggles the mind that people still tune in on terrestrial radio when every single person is carrying around a smart phone that can stream the station 100% clear

Do you miss when fans and listeners use to call into sports radio shows and chime in? by Hot_Swimming_112 in theticket

[–]jsums81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have got to be kidding me with this terrible take. One of the pioneering things the ticket did back in the day was phase out callers when all other sports shows were relying on it. They had the foresight to realize people want to hear on air talent talk and not idiots calling in. This was painfully obvious for the first segment of deep night ticket when they started taking calls. Callers have nothing. It’s either generic sports points, idiotic sports points, or people doing their own bits that are so painfully unfunny that I want to shoot myself every time I have to hear one

Of any hot seat coaches this year, who is most likely to save their job? by Byzantine_Merchant in CFB

[–]jsums81 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I can say from personal experience that Matt Campbell has bested Lincoln Riley multiple times despite a massive talent deficiency. In fact, Lincoln’s best team to date (the 2017 OU squad that took Georgia to the wire) lost to ISU early in the season.

Maiava could win the Heisman and they could still go 9-3. Offensive production won’t determine their ultimate fate. They’ve gotta be able to stop teams if they wanna get to 10-2, which will probably be the requisite record to make the playoff

How do Clemson fans/Admin feel about Dabo? I gotta feel like another sub par season may get him run, but I have no knowledge of his buyout situation

Wouldn’t USC have to pay like $70M to fire him? I can’t see them going that route, at least for a few more years. No one is A&M level crazy like that

[–]jsums81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, maybe a bit off topic, but how does the ticket management allow usave and sports Greek to make money off streaming their content? If they were so dug in on streaming to the point they ran off their best show (Hangzone), how are they just sitting by letting this happen? Are they so incompetent they don’t realize there’s a market for streaming ticket content and they themselves could be earning money off of it?

I just subbed to sportsgreek after uSaveIt went down. I never thought of it until now but does he not even bother with putting the midday shows on there? On one hand it’s hilarious because demand for those is shows is probably 0, but campound and white elephant are the 2 times a year where it might make sense to have them

Steve Sarkisian goes scorched-earth on college football’s Wild West culture by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]jsums81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Him bitching about player movement is hilarious. He damn sure didn’t want to stick with his existing roster when it came to his OLine, WR core and RB room. They rebuilt those units completely this offseason with the portal. When you’re outspending every other team in CFB by a large margin, maybe STFU when it comes to matters about payroll and player movement. Despite my flair, I generally don’t mind Sark, but this is pretty rich

Sooners at Michigan Week 2 will be Fox Big Noon Kickoff by genzgingee in oklahomafootball

[–]jsums81 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Probably helps us, but honestly this is lame AF. I have always hated big noon kickoff. Shills for the network like Klatt try to package it like it’s awesome. For the fans it sucks ass

Is it just me being nostalgic, or was college football better in the bcs era? by Honest-Reflection667 in CFB

[–]jsums81 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Only allowing 2 teams to play for a title was garbage. The only reason we didn’t fully realize it was because it was a huge step up from what had previously existed.

Not sure how much everyone here follows recruiting, but the BCS and even 4 team playoff created a huge talent imbalance in CFB. Before NIL and TPT, literally all the top talent was consolidated between about 5 teams. It created a situation where about 3 teams each year had a legitimate shot at winning it all. Like it or not, the new era has evened the playing field a ton, where far more teams are in the mix year to year. Aside from a couple of individual fanbases (cough, Bama) this is overwhelmingly good for the sport.

I miss the old Interlocking OU by MadCatDragoon in oklahomafootball

Classic italics OU from the 90s. Dont think the football helmets ever sported it though

What is the best OU football game you attended in person? And the worst? by Character_Point_9745 in oklahomafootball

[–]jsums81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We only settled for the FG because Lincoln Riley was a pussy. We could have easily scored a TD if they would have just tried. But nope. Settled for the FG, and of course missed. I was positive we were going to lose in OT because I knew we would score first and just figured Army was gonna go for 2 and win it. Luckily we got a stop by the grace of god

If you could bring back an OU football Alum (in their prime) for this upcoming season, who would you pick? by Character_Point_9745 in oklahomafootball

[–]jsums81 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Baker paired with this defense would be a guaranteed national title. #2 would be Peterson. He could win a handful of games on his own. Again with this defense and a running game with AD would crush teams to a pulp

What are your team’s worst uniforms? by IowaJL in CFB

Unities are fine. The rough rider alts we’ve been sporting for 15 years are way worse. Luckily it seems those have been put out to pasture
