Final 4 appearances the last two seasons.  Stands to reason he'll eventually get over the hump.

As for becoming a Chiefs fan, it figures you'd pick the one NFL team with no Tigers ;-)

Ha!  Not intentional of course.

But I've always liked Mahomes.  And Worthy is there now.  And Derrick Johnson was a good player for them, as were Priest Holmes and Jamaal Charles.  Plus my i s c & a aggie wife spent her first nine years of life in KC, so she always roots for them.

But overall, yeah, totally agree with you.  My interest in college football is waning for the reasons you've cited, and others.

But I still can't say I care more for the pro game.  I just care less about all of it, in general.

That's why I'm hopeful Sarkisian can deliver one more NC to Texas, before I just completely check out.
bullshit you just need a little Longhorn jolt

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Our QB last year got NFL offensive rookie of the year.  That, after our pitching ace from the 2023 championship beisbol team also got MLB rookie of the year. 

Now we just need a stud basketball player to go to the NBA and nah, I can't even type that with a straight face.

Well, since it was 10 years ago and he was injured his rookie season, I'm inclined to say no.

However, I did not know he actually did win NBA ROTY....in technically his third season.  I didn't keep up with him after his draft and injury.  I had no idea he was ROTY, or that you could even win that when it's not your first season...or even your second.  Shows what I know.  I just looked him up and that's what it says.  

With that, I guess we can claim to have at least 1 player drafted #1 in each major sport, and a player to win ROTY as well.

An Aggie was Super Bowl 50 MVP, but he didn't score a TD.

Of the 130+ FBS schools, there are likely quite a few that have never had a player score a TD in the Superbowl.  In the exact same game 3 nights ago, DeVonta Smith was the first Alabama player to ever score a TD in the Superbowl.  Apparently they don't count QBs throwing TDs into that stat.

Did Ja'Marr Chase catch a TD when the Bengals lost to the Rams?

If he did, I bet he'd trade that catch for a W all day, every day, and twice on Sundays.

LSU gymnastics will take on their nemesis, Oklahoma, tonight.  The Sooners have been the bane of the Tigers for several years.  Despite multiple top-notch teams, and even a NC team last season, the Sooners have been a little better and consistently edged us out.

#1 vs. #2. Should be a good match.

Congrats to that one gymnast, I reckon, for parlaying an okay gym career into being an Insta-celebrity and causing riots at the PMAC.
