So they are better wins but not "holy shit wins. Agree, OU's offense was teetering on disaster multiple times against Auburn, but I suspect we will find out that Auburn defense isn't half bad and OU has no other real offensive weapons outside of their quarterback.

" Not sure why it would be surprising Mateer would be getting more praise for beating those two teams, but it wouldn't be the first thing I don't understand. And yet you inferred that he was drawing an equivalence between Michigan, Auburn, SJSU, UTEP, and Sam Houston, which he clearly did not.

I saw us do an interesting wrinkle on defense against UTEP. Simmons lines up on the LT with Moore outside of him. #1 drops back into what appears to be coverage, short zone over the middle, but is really spying the QB. He tackled him for no gain when the pocket collapsed and the QB tried to escape. We can run similar combinations of this with Simmons, Moore, Spence, and Ant Hill. Who's coming? Good luck, Mateer.

I think that would be a very good way to play him. Also think keeping him in the pocket and making him work through progressions, make good choices, and accurate throws would work for Texas with their secondary. His footwork and mechanics are terrible and he often seems to break the pocket in an attempt to get things down to a street ball level.

Surprising that they both have almost the same stats. Edited September 22Sep 22 by Biff Tannen Also “good” was in quotations because, while I think those teams are better than anyone we’ve played not named osu, I don’t think they are so good as to be getting OU a top 10 ranking

Get the fuck out of here, national haters. You're gonna be miserable over the next decade, watch. Yep the national media has always hated and counted out Texas. It’s great actually id rather have them hating us then giving us rat poison. baker grabs his dick on the sidelines and they go on about how competitive he is lol

September 23Sep 23 It’s also shitty to disrespect a player or program by saying they are too poor to be treated as equals. If your only problem is that it’s shsu then you disrespect their competitive drive and abilities by insinuating they are pitiable and Texas shouldn’t treat them like a worthy opponent.

If Arch wants to let his nuts hang. He can dunk on future man for all I care. Just win baby

I do think ok is better on offense than last year I just don’t see one man show beating this Texas defense unless yall tell me he’s Vince young or some shit. They still can’t run the ball conventionally. Good luck against our defense one sided. Rival games are crazy tho

He was running on OSU the first game. and he just seems to find holes and get yards. He's not going to wow anyone withe game brakers or juke moves...but the dude find the hole, runs hard, and is reliable. The Run game is not as good without him...hasn't been this year or last.
