Looks like if they weren't turning teams over Venables would be on the verge of being fired.

Recommended game plan:  very conservative, play for field position, take points at any opportunity. 24 points probably wins the game.

one thing for certain

DO NOT FUCKING TAKE POINTS OFF THE BOARD EVAR AGAIN

that is all

This year will be my 40th OU game.  You want old? I'll show you old. 

My first was 1974, same as Earl's.

The OU '74 & '75 teams were among the best ever. Nobody saw them, as OU was on probation, so no TV. 

I saw Earl Campbell's '77 & Billy Sim's '78 back-to-back Heisman Trophy games. 

My disdain for Kirk Bohls dates to 1977. He led me and everyone in Texas to believe that Notre Dame didn't have a chance against undefeated Texas in the Cotton Bowl. As I sat in my 3rd row seat, eye level with the players, I thought, these guys are big. I later realized they had 3 All Americans on defense, Ross Browner (DE), Bob Golic (LB), and Luther Bradley (DB). Also a junior QB, Hannah Montana or something like that. The boomerang effect is the Kirk you know and love.

On to better things.

I'm taking my son's to their first OU game.

One of my favorites, Earl standing tall, with 2 All Americans laying in a pile at his feet.

Hook 'em!

I mean, probably in the same situation.  If it would have been a first down, you definitely take the points off the board.

My first son was born summer '22, and we all know how that game turned out. 

My 2nd son was born last Thursday. I'm guessing 98-0.

If that happens, there's only one way forward.

Just looked at last year's boxscore and found a crazy fact. 

Only 3 offensive skill position players that recorded a stat in the 2023 game are playing this Saturday: Quinn Ewers, Gunnar Helm, and Gavin Sawchuck.

Checking in at 4-8 here. 4-9 if you count the 2018 Big 12 championship game.

It's not a voodoo thing I just started at UT in 2010.

If it makes you feel better, I started in 2000. My record is... somewhat worse. Some of those losses in the early 2000s had me questioning my entire life

Definitely. Probably.

What I thought at the time - and haven't changed my mind in the meantime - was "for a 1st and obviously already in FG range, duh." Fourth and shorter, keep the points unless it's late game and we really need that extra few points or don't need 'em at all.

I may watch it that way. The last time I tried, it seemed like it buffered a bunch and it was hard to watch.
I am anxious to see the horns come out aggressive and focused.  Want the days of Mack Brown's "it's like playing your best friend" soft serve to be cleansed with us cracking some helmets.

I never understood that type of mentality. Yeah, you can play like it’s your best friend. I wanted to destroy my friends at everything so I could talk shit. Not take it easy on them.

Right?

The first time I played baseball against my best friend, my first at bat he hit me in the elbow because I was crowding the plate. Third at bat, I hit a three run homer. Dumb bitch acting like I hadn’t seen him throw a knuckle curve 1000 times in his backyard.

Because we aren’t friends with them. They can’t sit with us.

A Solo Arby's commercial might give you a clue.

I Hope.

Maybe. Our 2015 win really didn’t answer a damn question about Texas.

But it did confirm Charlie Strong’s index finger into the Guinness book of world record.

Does YouTube TV 4k look crazy dim to anyone else's tv?   I always end up switching back to regular HD.

Burger King and Allstate is a good sponsor combo...life insurance and something that will help your beneficiary collect it faster.

80/20 he is not going to play. We are simply dead at that position. 

I would really like to see the 49-0 give-up coaching-his-team-during-a-game version of Venables again. That was incredible to watch.

Very similar experience, only my best friend threw 95 and got drafted by the Phillies.  Hurt like hell and I only got a single later.

That’s who I thought it was. Wasn’t sure what the Sarlaac had to do with it.

At the time, he topped out around 91-92 but lost a lot of control, which is why there were two men on base. 

The last person I wanted to lose to was a friend. Those jackasses were always around. Enemies left after the game. 

I’m just ready to be there to see Texas roll these clowns.

Sometimes it's dim but that's just because the broadcast is broken and it works again shortly afterwards.

But another reason for being dim is if it's broadcast in HDR but your TV doesn't support HDR.

if you need 6, 7 or 8, why are you kicking in the first place?

thermensa had SEVEN downs inside the 3 against LSU

on the EIGHTH DOWN you TAKE THE FUCKING POINTS

if he had, we beat corndog

forty acres of glory
under the sun drenched sky
came 22 burnt orange warriors
knowing their cause was true

over their opponent, victorious!
under the sun drenched sky

All the national talk by the “media” about the OSU and Bama’s true freshman WRs has been to an extreme, which they’ve both provided highlight reel plays. Our very own Wingo is about to be showcased in this upcoming OU game, so add him to that list of great true freshman WRs!

IMO - Sark has been waiting until these next two games to unleash the Wingo we have!

Hook’em!!!

Keontay Ingram also dropped a wide-open touchdown pass.

Yes- it looks awful. I have an Apple TV 4K on a new LG plasma. The Georgia-Clemson opener was particularly terrible- almost pastel colors or something. Cancelled 4K package after the Georgia-Bama game looked like shit.

Saturday will be my first time attending this game since they got rid of the physical game tickets, which used to have a separate stub for admission to the Fair.  The electronic ticket doesn't say anything about Fair admission on it. 

Do they scan your game ticket twice, once at the Fair entrance and again when you enter the stadium?

He’ll look like a broken down old man playing against a defense that’s wrecking shop?  I’m fine with that.

13-19-1 in my lifetime. Need to flip the script and this is the weekend to start that process. With NIL and the transfer portal I'm hoping we can start beating the gooners 3 or 4 times in a row like they've done to us. If not for the late collapses we should have won last year and in 2021. Shit the last time we beat them 3 straight was the 90s. That's frustrating and infuriating.
