September 22, 20196 yr Gundy looked like he was playing OU in the second half. His decision making was as odd as Herman's, so I guess it evened out. Just glad Texas exercised that demon. Onward.

If it's any consolation, Georgia and ND looked like warmed over vomit. that is good because it will cost them--I just don't want to see this team junk punch themselves against OU. This was a huge hurdle tonight and it didn't have to be as big as it was but Texas kept adding to it. Play against OSU like they did against LSU and they win it pretty handily. OSU needed help through turnovers, penalties and secondary lapses and Texas wasn't of the mindset to just emphatically take it. However, all the injuries and youngsters pressed to play have really experientially aided this young team and given them hope to see the field. If they survive, they will have seen and learned from a variety of situations. Hopefully, now Texas understands that they are better than OSU, even after so many mistakes. Play largely mistake free football and they will be conference champs.
September 22, 20196 yr Herman just pretty much officially let it out that be calls the plays now I know we all knew it, but nice to have some confirmation What did he say

September 22, 20196 yr Not being mentioned much, but seeing Montrell Estell hold up decently well is very encouraging to see
September 22, 20196 yr Yall spend all week in this echo chamber with the rest of us degenerates and aren't paying attention, to you know, stuff like history. OSU is going to be a pain in the ass as long as Gundy is there. Be glad you won. I'm sorry you didn't come. Beat Tech or KSU or TCU or ISU any way any how and be fucking happy. Winning is fucking hard.

September 22, 20196 yr this was kinda like the game against NC State in 1999, with the 3 blocked punts. except we won this one. big heart by the fellas. they made key plays when necessary.
September 22, 20196 yr Drunk, high, laid and happy. Great got damn game. Very proud for the first time in a long time

September 22, 20196 yr I don’t understand the “least satisfying win ever” comment at all. is itmuledick
September 22, 20196 yr I don’t think it was an unsatisfying win. We gifted them at least 14 points on muffed punts, and should have had at least a FG more on our 4th down debacle. It felt closer to a blowout than it did to almost a loss, from being there in person. Maybe it looked worse on TV. My takeaway is actually that we can shoot ourselves in the dick and recover now, when we haven’t been able to do that for a decade.

September 22, 20196 yr Yeah yeah yeah tons of injuries, Green will hurt, but the best player on our defense got a pick tonight and finished the game healthy and well hopefully get one or two safeties back over the bye week so I'm not going to slit my wrists yet.

We had Hager, Giles, & Hackamack (sp?) in our front 7 and speed merchants Eric Metcalf & Tony Jones on offense plus the Cash twins and Johnny Walker (Black) and we still should have lost. God David McWilliams sucked as a head coach.
September 22, 20196 yr Still cannot believe we hired him. Deloss Dodds was a shitty AD who was responsible for two long embarrasing dry spells in Texas Football history. I hate we named a street after him. And no offense to David McWilliams, I will always love him, but he was in way over his head. Edited September 22, 20196 yr by Valmy77

September 22, 20196 yr I was thinking Graham was a jag but he's looked pretty damn good these last two games. Maybe he's starting to figure things out.
September 22, 20196 yr we were in the "get one of Darrell's guys" situation after Akers pulled his Mack Brown decline.speaking of akers, akers teams would not have gotten that last first down. akers would have done that dive into the line 3 times and punted and it would have been nail biting time can the d hold em and preserve the win. you fucking whippersnapper don't know from shit ugly wins. fucking akers was the king of no offense ugly wins and too many ugĺy wins that turned into ugly losses. this win wasn't ugly by the akers standard. not by a long shot.allways remember in the words of DKR "Old ugly is better than old nuthin."OU sucks
September 22, 20196 yr Mike Mullet Gundy always come to play. That OSU is a good team. Good game, good victory. Don't care much for their RB but the QB is dangerous and Tylan Wallace has glue for hands, even if he was quiet in the 2nd half. Their QB isn't Ehlinger though, and their WR isn't Duvernay. Goddamn that guy is magnetic to key plays. Confidence with Sam is amazing. For a fan you don't worry if the offense will get it done, only whether the D will.
September 22, 20196 yr Offense is NC (maybe) caliber. Defense is, um, not. Special teams is an aborshun. Edited September 22, 20196 yr by C-Man

You never turn off the offense with most of the 4th yet to play, especially only up 13 pts.

A deal I made with the wife. But to me it looked we should have won by 4 TDs but instead were trying to throw the game. And I wasn't always watching attentively, but at one point in the 2nd half I told my friend that I don't recall Texas even having the ball in the last half hour. I don't know how many fumbled punts occurred but I saw two of them. It's a really heads up play to try to make a diving punt catch in traffic with 3 and half minutes left too. They also damn near got the onside kick. Edited September 22, 20196 yr by FondrenRoad

September 22, 20196 yr Holy hell, I was full of rage watching our punt return team last night, so yeah, I was probably the asshole guy near you and your family last night, screaming how fucking stupid it was to even get near those punts. I thought it was near-Charlie-Okie-State-Three-PATs-blocked level stupid to not instruct Brandon and everyone else to just get the fuck away. I’m sure this thread was a pleasant place to be when that was happening.

September 22, 20196 yr This is a game in the past 5 years that we would've lost. It wasn't pretty but damn it's satisfying to have that many miscues and still get the win against a team you haven't beaten at home since 2008. Sure there were lots of fuckups but there were equally many big plays and guys who stepped up when needed. Our secondary is a mess but our run defense is good. They frustrated Chuba all night. Yeah, he got his yards but they didn't come easy. Thank the Maker for the bye week.
September 22, 20196 yr It’s great that we can still win with so many mistakes by both players and coaches. But at what cost? If we would have been blowing them out in the first half like should have been happening, how many of those defensive injuries to starters are avoided? This game will likely cost us down the road. Also, I think it’s time for Herman to start coaching like he has the better team in games like this. That’s one thing that Mack mastered. You don’t have to gamble when you’re the better team. Take the damn points every time.
September 22, 20196 yr Sanders is going to be scary good with more experience. I remember thinking Mason Rudolph was terrible as a freshman. This dude is better by leaps and bounds.
