Trinity University OC Wade Lytal wasn't sure he could return to work after losing his daughter, Kellyanne, in the Camp Mystic floods in 2025. As it turned out, football was exactly what he required. On the healing powers of team and community:

They don’t like college football. They like helmets. Will Compton tweeted something similar. These are not the people who should be faces of the sport’s media.

Would anybody be opposed to a playoff of Texas Tech, Notre Dame and 10 Big Ten/SEC teams? Or we could just keep pretending the G5 and ACC deserve a guaranteed spot.

Alabama lost to a 5-6 Oklahoma team TWO WEEKS AGO. Alabama lost to VANDERBILT. SMU has two losses by a combined SEVEN points to teams with a combined 20-5 record. What are we doing here? This isn’t a real debate. We know the 12 teams. The conversation is about seeds 3-12.

The State College Regional airport is full and that diverted a bunch of private jets from SMU to Williamsport. A few billion dollars are in a 32-person bus to Penn State and will miss the first quarter.

Texas is the only SEC team standing in Year 1 in conference. Texas A&M won 11 games in first year in the SEC. Mizzou won 12 games in Year 2 and 11 in Year 3 as SEC members. It’s all propaganda.

Please give me the semifinal at AT&T between SMU and Texas. I ask for so little.

Texas, Baylor and Texas A&M walk into a bar. Everyone else laughs.

The SEC hubris is so wild to me. Texas A&M walked in and won 11 games. Mizzou won 10+ in Year 2 and 3. Texas waltzed in and went straight to championship game. A bad OU team beat Bama in Year 1. Sure, it’s the deepest league. But let’s come back to reality here.

D'Eriq King is a trailblazer. He signed the first NIL deal in college football. He took advantage of the four-game redshirt rule and the transfer portal. And now, he's the only Black QB coach at the FBS level in Texas. @SMUFB @Deriqking__

Texas State drinking SMU out of beer is the most #onbrand and bad ass thing so far this bowl season.

#Sooners commit @ColtonVasek has taken over this football game. Judson can’t run anything without him disrupting the timing. A dude.
