Two losses by 1 score to top 6 teams.

In fairness, it went to 1 score in both games because of late TDs after the opponent went into turtle mode to protect the lead. 
 

Also worth pointing out that Dicker is the best onside kicker I’ve ever seen. Sad that his teammates don’t help him out on those.

Did you see our two losses? Everyone is talking about them. Best in the nation .

What happened to the offense?

OU upgraded their biggest weakness by adding Grinch.  Meanwhile, Herman stood pat on his ego.

Why are we so fucking scared to death of running the ball more? It works too well? Punishes an aggressive defense too much?

Since the 2nd half of W Virginia. Something collapsed.

OU defense knew what play was coming on before Texas WR at times. It was insane to watch them swarm to the ball.

Murray looked like a heat seeking missile on every snap. Guy has to be on roids. 

0-2 in the 2 biggest games of the year isn’t a good look for sure. Hopefully they still make the Big 12 title and get some revenge.


Only two tests on the scheduled and failed them both.

Yeah maybe we should put guys on the edge with better hands or effort than Eagles and Johnson. Jesus 

Eagles wasn’t even looking for the ball.

His biggest mistake today is leaving Duvernay at KR. He’s killed us on every kickoff.

It was absolutely awful and just fucking stupid

This game was an all around failure. Our gameplan on both sides of the ball was complete shit. Our team wasn’t prepared in any phase. Our players didn’t show up with any emotion. Even our crowd was quiet almost from the start. Guess we chose the Mensa route for game prep instead of the obvious route.

@Snacks used to excuse every embarrassing loss during the Strong era on the jimmy and Joes, not the Xs and Os.

put that loss entirely on the Xs and Os. We got out-coached and it has me angry and concerned.

Lincoln Riley is a better coach than Tom Herman. That’s pretty much a fact at this point. The game was ripe for the taking today, but we just didn’t show up ready to play. That isn’t an x’s and o’s thing. That’s the Jimmy’s and the joe’s just not showing up ready to play against your biggest fucking rival. I honestly don’t know if that falls more on the players or the coaches.

Sam hasn't seemed quite right for some time.  Other than Duvernay, receivers have been kind of indifferent all year.  

RoJo has been a bright spot, but running game pretty indifferent to bad, also.

We didn’t match the intensity until the 3rd Q

Hurts allowed Texas stay till the 3rd Q. He stops making stupid mistakes and this game is a blowout.

really dumb mental errors helped give the offense shit starting field position all day.  dunno what's so hard about not catching the ball outside the 10, letting it go inside the 10, and taking a knee in the end zone.

Aside from kicking, special teams was on the short bus 

TBH... I've left Fair Park feeling worse than I do today.  But I'm pissed.  And I'm disappointed.  

Herman's ego is a big obstacle to us improving.  Stinkin' Lincoln is a mercenary coach with a mercenary qb, but he course-corrected after last year.   Ball is in TH's court.

Bad offense... lost by 7pts

Work asses off to get back to B12 Championship Game....

Every loss is the end of the world to you people. Fire up the fire Tom Herman thread, maybe the next hypothetical coach can go undefeated and deserve us.

Several of those were because Sam went full retard.

We are not as good as last season. We played good solid D against a great offense. Hopefully D gains positive experience and we build for next season. We are on the right path. 

Not trying to be a contrarian dick, but if teaxas receivers catch the fucking football this might have been a win.

Out of rep.  

OU will cake walk the rest of the big 12 as all the other schools lay over for them.  It's up to Texas win out and stop them in Arlington.

OU arm grabs not being called.  PI is a mystery call in the NFL too. I remember the old days when any contact would be a yellow, not it's very lax.

WV 2018? That was an embarrassing lay down to lose at the end. 

Yes.

This isn’t UH where you can motivate with David v. Goliath mentality for the biggest game. This is Texas. You are the big game. What’s the solution for not being out-mensa’d? Tom overthinks stuff. Rojo’s beasting? But the numbers say we need ingram. What? No fgs in the red zone? THATS FUCKING STUPID! YOU HAVE DIKCER THE MOTHERFUCKING KICKER TOM. Dumbass

Our secondary is decimated and losing Roach killed our run defense. Even then it was basically 2 guys that killed us

This sucks but for a few boneheaded plays we could have won.  We were in it till the end.  Yes,  Herman had some shit calls,  but fuck,  there were missed blitz pick ups, dumb ST decisions, dropped passes,  and Sam not sensing pressure.  Most of those things were obvious, you should know this shit stuff that’s on the players.  This wasn’t Chuckle’s players basically running the wrong way. 
 

Also, CeeDee Lamb is a grown ass man.

Don’t know why but the Tech 2017 game pissed me off the most. I think I knew Sam was gonna throw a pick before the ball was even snapped on that last drive. 

Reminded me a lot of last year’s October game inverted.  OU dominated today and was clearly the better team and we somehow kept it close with no business being in the game.  Hopefully the inversion continues with the CCG.  The coaches, OL, Sam, DBs (tackling) and front 7 (stopping the run) have a lot to make up for in this game.

There is no way that Tom Herman will ever out strategize Lincoln Riley. Never. Gonna. Happen. 

Tom Herman will be Lincoln Riley’s bitch as long as Lincoln Riley wants Tom Herman as his bitch. 

His game planning and game management leaves a lot to be desired but this was not his worst performance oh you was just flat out better than us from the staff to the players the Maryland losses were the worst

 

OU plays with a hatred for Texas Texas plays OU like scum bag neighbors to the north

At this point I would say things are frustrating. Like ‘99, ‘00. We are stuck with a few “smallish” problems distracting from potential greatness. I remember (96-01) loving our teams but always dropping 4 games and 2 they shouldn’t. The magazine lines were all about how we were “stuck” at 9 wins. 

all I can say is that they had a shot at LSU and OU but the better team won. Fuck it. That’s were were at, let’s not be aggy about it. I felt shitty after Maryland last year and couldn’t believe how the guys closed out. 

The game I saw exposed our well known systemic problems against a superior team with talented individuals putting in exceptional performances. I don’t feel the team quit, it was out coached, however, the difference here is that the problems are not stagnant- there isnt the stench of sewage lingering, we are still in my fans mind a frustrating transition. No excuses. We lost, OU best us fair and square. But I don’t feel the hopeless incompetence that permeated the last 10 years.
 

now, I’m going to go get stoned.

This is the worst fucking thing about losing this game. Every team in the conference gets up to play Texas and just rolls over for ousux. After ousux steamrolls the rest of their schedule, they go to the playoff and get crapped on. Rinse, repeat.

Correct. That means Texas has to execute, be more physical  and play their best game.

I’m still here mired in sooner shit talking. And you’re 100% spot on. Why does Texas always hire coaches who are so fucking slow to make big moves?

I don't think Riley will be around that long.  He'll get an express trip to the NFL before too long.

 

Besides, it's not like he's undefeated against Herman.  They weren't perfect today.  They were just better.

Texas won 48-45 in Oct 2018 Bitch!!!

Say what? DD was our best receiver today. Maybe that isn’t saying much given the receiving corps overall effort
