If you take out the 12-yard run on the final play of the first half and the last series of the game where Steve Sarkisian’s son was playing linebacker, CSU had 28 rushes for 89 yards. 3.1 yards a carry.

They may have popped a few 7 or 8 yarders but it wasn’t doing much either. Longest rush of the day was 13 yards.

TEXAS CHEERS and aggy tears!

It was a wonderful day.

What a relatively clean game penalty-wise. Such a refreshing change from the Big12 that does everything they can to fuck us. A complete contrast to the Arizona-UNM game late last night where the officials completely shit all over that game with replays, conferences and questionable calls.

Was that horse collar a real horse collar? The broadcast didn't show it much (like the fumble that wasn't) but it looked like JJR grabbed the shoulder pad instead of the collar. Did anyone get a better look at it?

Man, can you believe when it was the Strong and Herman eras to where we are at now? I think I was all in on Sark and so far, he’s been a great hire. Of course some hiccups but never the head scratching WTF moments with Strong and the burnt bacon BS with Herman. It’s been a long road but fuck, I’m even more excited for this season. 
Anyone else think that getting to the SEC conference championship is a good benchmark for this year?

None? 
 

losing to an AWFUL Kansas team at HOME wasn’t one? 
 

 

Thankfully, we appear to be way WAY past that now.

No.  Had a good look from my seat and looked like he grabbed the front of the shoulder pads

For sure not a horse collar, but at least we got a few holding calls to offset the usual ref buffoonery.

Yep he grabbed the outside of the shoulder pad. 

The way the rule written,  it doesn't have to be inside the collar. It is anywhere in the name plate area with backwards motion. Unfortunately it is a judgement call, fortunately we don't have big 12 refs.

Penalties - both teams 3 for 25 yards. How fucking refreshing.

Did anyone else miss the first three plays of the game because they were waiting for the fucking ESPN app to start the game? After a few minutes I went back to regular ESPN and by that point they changed it to "now showing on ESPN News".

Yes. And I was irrationally pissed about it.

Typically it has been for basketball, but every single time I have ever tried to start a Texas game on the app, something like that has happened.

the post game press conference.

Is this available anywhere?

It's on the LHN app. It took about 20 minutes and a spinning wheel before the press conference came up. Kinda odd to not just have something else since they're doing a pregame but this is the new world.

I just want a goddamned youtube link. Why does Bellmont make the simplest shit a chore?

After watching the Texas Chips condensed replay, the backup OL played pretty damn good. No idea if Colorado State had their backups in at that point or not. Sydir Mitchell was less than impressive. He's got a ways to go. Jerrick Gibson looked pretty good. Runs with effort and shows some patience at times before cutting it loose up the crease.

Wingo needs to wrap the ball up in traffic. He's not the only one though. Ball protection is one of my pet peeves. Bolden was a little too anxious to strut his stuff on a couple of those punt receptions/decisions. Hopefully Banks gets it across but he may realize it himself judging by his body language. The DL was a little soft up the middle at times with no LB's in place to clean up the mess. Stuff to work on but a good first performance overall.

I don't think too many QBs would have shown the kind of heads up improvisation Manning did with that quick dump off to Bolden for the TD. Gruntled.

It’s all over Tiktok today. I don’t think the announcers even noticed it.

The no look made that play. Threw it right past the LB who was in position to knock it down at least if he hadn’t been looking at the WR Quinn was staring down.  Sick pass

I wouldn't know how to check those, but I'm 90% certain we didn't have a single penalty in the second half. Nice to make use of our halftime.

Got it, was packing up the tailgate at that time. Thank you for correcting me.

your broader point stands - they played a clean game.

How refreshing was it to see a Texas opponent called for holding three times???

Felt the announcers were barely watching the game and focused on getting off their predetermined talking points. 

On re-watch, I know it's garbage time but Gibson is a damn good runner between the tackles. He looked patient and powerful, had good cuts and really good vision. We have an embarrassment of riches at all the skilled position.

OU is fucked

I think they went to the run more because it was the only thing they tried that worked.

The defense is going to be kinda of the opposite of last year's. This turned out to be a good test, because Michigan will try to limit our possessions as well. However, the CSU QB and #14 would start at Michigan, so if we can get up 2 scores the game might be over because Michigan doesn't have the offensive firepower to overcome that unless their defense can force multiple TOs like they did against Fresno State.

and didn't we decline a holding on their 1st drive. 3 holding calls against the offense is a refreshing change.

Yeah, would’ve been like a 4 yard penalty and it was already 3rd and longish.

WTF is Sark thinking here?   How ya gonna go into UM and still have a punter controversy and no punt coverage practice.   Dooooomed.

Tbh, this does actually worry me. Punter is a complete question mark… First play of their college career will be in front of 110,000 in Michigan? No thank you 

We punted in the first quarter on the first drive. They fair caught it.

what surprised me more about Gibson was how he hit the edge with speed on one of his early runs. I figured he would be good between the tackles, but I didn’t realize how fast he is.

Wadlington mentioned on a video this afternoon that on his rewatch he counted 12 true dropbacks for CSU where the QB actually went through a progression or two and wasn’t just throwing to a predetermined receiver or spot.

Texas got pressure on 7 of those dropbacks and he said the time from snap to release couldn’t have been much more than 2 seconds on the majority of them.

He wasn’t concerned at all about the pass rush.

It's nice to see that Gibson working out with Bijan this Spring has made a difference. He looked hella quick in that video of them. 

Dumb question, but was this game accessible from ESPN+?

Right now, I have a cable subscription and access to Plus.  When I was digging around to get the game started, I did not see it listed on Plus.

I thought most or all ESPN content was on Plus.

Not really. If you have it all through cable, you’ll see the espn channel feeds. But espn+ is a different deal. The only mouse games on a major channel AND + are the ones on ABC, IIRC.

Is it fair to say that if it's espn/abc and not on Plus, then it's OTA?

Damn straight. We all knew that from watching the Alamo Bowl last year against Arizona. Those SEC refs don't fuck around. OU had like 7 or 8 holding penalties all called in the second half. They're in for a rude awakening. It's nice to be in a conference where the officiating is better and everything isn't tilted in OU's favor anymore.

I’ll believe this when I really see it.

They’re always on YouTube. Just search Texas v Opponent on game day and you’ll usually find a few channels streaming the game
