My father helped design the thing. My parents pulled me out of school, in second grade maybe, to go watch part of the installation one day. Fun stuff for a second grader to watch. Apparently it's in China now. Anyway, Texas doesn't need a reactor. They've got Welch hall, which is infinitely more dangerous. A&M has a fission reactor off of the main campus. Some friends of mine were hanging around outside it drinking one night and got the bright idea to break into the airport next door. They got one of the little luggage carrier cars started and were driving it out on the runways in the middle of the night. FBI raided our dorm the next morning. Glad I missed that. Welch was where it was rumored to be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting a reactor in Welch would've been an invitation to global nuclear catastrophe. Place was constantly either on fire and/or being evacuated when I was in grad school. I was never really sure if the Austin fire department actually refused to continue responding there, or just threatened to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UW has a lil research reactor and there was kerfuffle a few years back when the news discovered that it wasn't secured at all and you could just, like, walk in and check it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAN Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Can't quite figure out who sucks more ass this year- UVa or VA Tech. I'm guessing Tech, but both would lose to Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Props to Wake Forest for hanging in there with Clemson. I thought it was going to be a blowout early. But down 6 at the half is not bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Jalon Daniels is a Heisman trophy candidate and probably a big thing stopping him is how historical awful Kansas football has been . Not sure if he is even top 5 now. Not sure if this is more a slight on Michigan but this is probably Maryland's best top-tier road game since being in Big 10. Especially after that first 2 plays.

Maryland definitely hung around and played tougher than I think people expected. Locksley is doing a good job there. But Blake Corum is having a hell of a day.

EVA Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Auburn/Mizzu is the 2022 version of the infamous Auburn/Mississippi State 3-2 game. 2nd half has been a stunning display of offensive ineptitude.

EVA Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) I hadn’t been watching until now, but apparently they benched Van Dyke? Yikes. Double yikes at the 98-yard TD pass MTSU just tossed. Edited September 24, 2022 by EVA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I feel like this Miami loss should also be a transitive loss for Texas A&M, when you consider how the Blue Raiders are torching the Miami defense and the Aggies made them look like the Iron Curtain.

JLowe Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Texas lets Texas Tech run 90+ plays, convert 6 of 8 4th downs, and continues to run inside draw when the IOL is getting no push. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beavs are good this year, and road trips to Corvallis have long been a trap game for the Trojans. This is USC’s first real test of the season, and I wouldn’t be at all shocked if Oregon State is competitive with them or maybe even steals the upset. *taps the sign* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
