Between Pitt volleyball, Liberty-Dream OT and baseball playoffs, this was one of those nights the YouTube TV multiview was built for.

A lot of the advanced stats say Drake Maye has still been pretty efficient overall this season but every mistake is a Looney Toons-style disaster turnover.

Faizon Brandon might have completed more passes, but he did not have more passing yards than you did in the first quarter vs. Auburn. 3-for-6, 0 yards, 0 touchdowns, 0 interceptions. Passer rating of 50.

What an unbelievable play by Cam Lindsey. That kid is the definition of stay ready so you don’t have to get ready.

It is so funny being on the other side while watching a super undisciplined team.

Stephen Thompson @stephenthompson.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Other than the really horrendous coverage bust against their best player, I think the defense has kind of figured things out.

Hicks has been a little underwhelming, but even with Knight in he should be WR2 at worst.

They have to figure out the Guerrier thing. I get he’s young and they ask a lot of him but it’s not working.

At least the punter is good.

I think Malik Knight is pretty good and they’re missing him a lot at the moment.

Spending thousands on tickets to Tenn-Texas. Filling my lifted truck up with $8 a gallon diesel on the way. Waiting in line for 3 hours to get into the stadium because secret service had to feel me up. Missing the first quarter. Jumbotron shows the president, asleep, in a box next to Erika Kirk.

I'm not saying I want anyone to get hurt or anything but I am interested in whether or not you'll be able to see the fear in Lane Kiffin's eyes tonight when he walks out onto that field.
