October 9, 20232 yr First play from the infamous failure goal line stand. Brooks has great vision but didn't see that massive hole on the right. I understand the play isn't designed to that gap but a jump cut to the right and he can sloth walk his way in the end zone. Not to mention from that formation they are selling out on the run with no threat of a pass.

Yeah, it's a hole but there's 2 defenders there. Plus he probably thought he could bowl through for the yard.
October 9, 20232 yr One of the biggest mistakes of the entire game was snapping the ball with 20 seconds on the play clock on 3rd and 9 before the last field goal. If you are playing for a field goal there, you don't do that.

October 9, 20232 yr On our last drive, after Worthy's catch for a first down, Bowman from OU was hurt and went down. The clock was at 2:35. No timeout was called, but the clock stopped for the injury. Shouldn't the game clock have restarted as soon as the ref marked the ball ready for play? The play clock started but the game clock did not.

October 9, 20232 yr RE emotion for this game. Here is a clip from the Brooks TD that tied the game. Quinn is about as calm as they come and showed this type of emotion as did others when big plays happened. If anybody can GIF this I would love to use it. [mention=397]immamac[/mention]Yeah, I’m glad he was pumped like that. Anyone that says emotion isn’t part of sports is a robot or a fool.

Yes, and with play already stopped thus negating the hurry up, Sark should have been telling the offense during the stoppage to run the play clock down. In which case you’d think he would have noticed the incorrect timing by the officials, but it seems he didn’t.

October 9, 20232 yr No I'm not, he took himself out of that gap, he was committed or do you expect him to go through 52 and his own player to get to that gap?Yeah, no way he bumps outside to make that tackle. Also notice there is no whipping our Olines ass here either. We only have 9 to block 11.On 3rd down, if Brooks follows Sweat at that guy pointed out, he’s got a chance.Odd that we run wildcat in the middle of the field but not goal line. Sark, that extra defender or two is yours.

The tempo three and out inside their own five that led to the blocked punt TD - and then of course not having max protection in an obvious punt block situation - was laughable, Charlie Strong type coaching. They botched a perfectly called 4th down conversion and dropped a walk in TD. Gabriel put a ball right in Jerrin Thompson's chest in the endzone, was largely neutered in the deep passing game, and was only 60% completion (do have to credit the Texas DL for doing a decent job of getting their hands up for forcing some awkward throws from a short QB). Their conventional run game was basically non existent. They badly missed a FG that would have effectively ended the game. They evidently had a kick block unit out on Texas's 4th and 4 before Sark called time. Texas didn't lose to some significantly inferior opponent playing their A++ game. OU was dealt the better hand from the officials and had some flat out good luck, but just as we are sitting here looking at several different ways the outcome could have been different, OU left meat on the bone in several different spots and could have blown that game wide the fuck open. Not unlike what we felt lookin at the Bama game from our end. They played better than Texas, and yes I think Texas has more opportunities to improve and flip the outcome, but in a hypothetical rematch they're as much or more likely to play better than to play worse. It was real enough on Saturday. Oklahoma was visibly the more aggressive and physical team and Texas did not ultimately have a counter for that. Idk how much you misread my post, but it seems like pretty bad comprehension. I said this was the best game they will play all year and it is. They aren't that good of a team and Texas played significantly worse than average and still almost won save the last drive which happened in the last 1:17. 1 hour ago, NoName said: it will NOT be OU's best game of the year per FEI's Game Ratings but that's only because of how much they smoked the hell out of Arkansas State those are opponent adjusted and exclude garbage time. they played a very, very good game vs Texas but the odds of them having that success rate again, being that successful running the ball, being that successful in the red zone, and getting that much HAVOC are extremely low. here they were vs Iowa State fore example (%tile vs Texas in red) and Cincy (%tile vs Texas in red) the rematch in December is going to be very good but don't get it twisted - they played a very, very, very good game that is unlikely to be re-created. the odds of this being their new baseline is very low considering we had a 5 game baseline before this. *** here is where the copium starts - i fully expect this to show up on message board geniuses. OU won the middle 8. OU won when rushing (!!!). OU won on early downs. OU was +3 in turnovers, +4 in sacks, +11% in HAVOC created, had more than 2x as much HAVOC from their front 7 as Texas did, were +10% in run stuff rate, +43% in red zone success, +4% in stop rate, had +10 points in turnover luck, had half as many penalties as Texas and had 4 of the 5 big plays in this game by absolute EPA...they still had to have a drive down the length of the field with no time outs to win. OU played THAT much better and still only had a 59% postgame winning expectancy per Bill C lol. will share the advanced box score he puts out when it's done. Texas should absolutely win out and then absolutely beat those Okie asses in the B12 championship. This is what I saw.

October 9, 20232 yr 1 hour ago, Had Enough said: It was Keilan. He’s always on the punt team. He’s blocked them before so you know he wants another. You can see him try to avoid contact late. If that’s 4th and 15, that’s one thing. But 4th and 4. Just stay away. I honestly thought he tipped it and barely grazed his fingertip when I saw the replay. I didn't rewind it and no one else seemed to see it so I was likely just drunk.

Like you said, normally he’s excellent with that type of stuff.
October 9, 20232 yr At this point returning kickoffs should be a near exact science. In baseball, teams use a timer on exactly how long opposing pitchers take to get the ball to the plate. If a guy is below a certain number, they don't run. If a kick hangs in the air longer than X (figure it out) or goes further than Y, then fair catch it and take the ball at the 25. Big returns arent common enough to risk starting inside the 20. And when they do happen they get called back every time

October 9, 20232 yr That fucking hit on quinn was targeting, they call that shit all day long across the football landscape. He puts his head down right before they collide and everything. We were driving and we score there the momentum shifts significantly. The play is at 1:39:30 of that vidoe above.

October 9, 20232 yr Not so much the guys on the play, but the whole team on the sideline out on the field celebrating... what I thought I heard, anyway.
October 9, 20232 yr Some might say it would be soft to call in a rivalry game, but twice in the same drive Downs was talking shit getting in the face and bending down to make helmet contact with our player (Brooks, I think, then Ewers).

The fucking PI call and the mix up on motion sucked but the calls weren’t bad. We played prevent all the way down the field and let them break off 15 yards a play when all they needed was a FG to tie. I'm not sure how you watch that and think the calls weren't bad. We had corners playing 20 yards off the LOS. I'd rather have lost being aggressive than watching them have easy 15 yard gains all the way down the field.
October 9, 20232 yr If an OL keeps holding the defender, the defender should subtlety punch or knee him in the nuts. You get thrown out if the refs catch you but it should only take once to make your point.
October 9, 20232 yr Part of holding is selling it. Trying to play through the hold actually makes it worse and seem passable at times. You can tell certain teams train their defenders on how to present themselves when they are being held to draw the flag. We aren't very good at it, at times.

If you’re open to the possibility of a different opinion, watch his speech here. He’s a humble, hard working man that grew up with extreme hardships and has earned this opportunity. He’s quite simply the antimeathead. He demands everyone’s best and knows how to get it. I really don’t need to watch a video. I have spoken with him on several occasions at Clemson’s booster club gatherings. My kid is on the board of IPTAY donation group. I also don’t necessarily disagree with any your particular points. But, to be the face of a major program? Yeah, that I didn’t see. Obviously Castiglione saw something else.

Yeah, one other thing that pisses me off is that OU rarely has any serious consequences when they lose to us other than the game itself. Prior to 2000 under Mack, OU wasn't really playing for the South division title in any year. 2005 they came in 2nd in the South after losing to the National Championship Texas team, oh well tip of the hat to Texas. 2006, Texas hands OU the south trophy after losing to kstate and aggy. 2008 been there done that. 2009 OU is 2nd in the south, but mediocre and injured qb. Had other conf loss to Nebraska 2013 finished 2nd but would have lost anyway due to loss to baylor and Texas loss to baylor. 2018 went to the playoff. 2021 stunk on ice
October 9, 20232 yr What’s the news on Jake Majors? and I’m remembering correctly that Cole Hutson was our backup center so we were down to our 3rd stringer this whole game at an incredibly important position?
