October 9, 20187 yr This fucking rules: That’s awesome. I’ve forgotten what it’s like to win. But I could get used to it again real soon!
October 9, 20187 yr That foxsports go edited replay with missing game and extra commercials was about to get bitch slapped.' Thank you!
October 9, 20187 yr 92,300 fans in attendance at the Cotton Bowl on Saturday weren’t the only ones who witnessed Texas’ 48-45 win over Oklahoma. FOX Sports has announced that the 113th edition of the Red River Showdown drew a 4.3 metered market rating. According to the company’s PR department, that was the highest-rated sporting event televised on Saturday. FOX has yet to televise a higher-rated college football game this season. FOX also aired Texas wins over USC and TCU. UT’s games against Maryland and Kansas State were shown on FS1.
October 9, 20187 yr I found it interesting that OU has yet to stop a 4th down attempt all year. Interesting, but not surprising. Also, OU sucks. Texas. Forever.
October 9, 20187 yr A few other notes on replay... A. Beck is an incredibly important player in our success. Even in pass pro, dude does it all. Sterns had a rough day the general thought we went conservative in the 4th is just incorrect, penalties killed us and ou tackled a little better. The 3rd and 2 rollout screen we checked to at the line was a special brand of retarded.
October 9, 20187 yr 9 hours ago, bluto said: the general thought we went conservative in the 4th is just incorrect We went conservative in the 4th quarter. First drive: holding (run play), holding (run play), run, run, short pass, punt Second drive: run, run, short pass (first down), run, run, QB hurry, punt Third drive: holding (run play), short pass, long pass (incomplete), long pass (incomplete) So we tried to run first on each drive, and went to the pass only when we had to. I agree that the holding calls were devastating, but still the intent was always to burn clock, not to attack the Swiss cheese OU secondary.
October 9, 20187 yr Those negated runs were all effective and what we had done the entire game, and our passing game was short almost all day save for wheel route and collin bomb. The third drive alone proves it wasn't a total 'prevent offense' with the passes, esp the incomplete low % throw deep to CJ. The game plan didn't really change besides the tempo and getting flagged for holding. Even Herman admitted the 3-20 tunnel screen that went for 18 on effort was solely called to add yards to the punt, so the offense wasn't called much differently at all, just shack kinda sucks (think he had 2/3 holds) Edited October 9, 20187 yr by bluto
October 9, 20187 yr 15 minutes ago, Machinator said: So are we now considering any run call on first down "conservative"? Yes.
October 9, 20187 yr All the incomplete passes sucked, but ironically maybe saved us the time needed for the last drive. One thing though is that when the defense knows you will snap the ball with 1 on the play clock, the offense loses the advantage of knowing the snap count and the OL firing out a fraction before the DL reacts. Which can change the effectiveness of the play. I wouldn’t be averse to snapping on 2 or 3 some times to try and catch them clock watching.
October 9, 20187 yr 11 minutes ago, Machinator said: Sam and kyler had similar yards from scrimmage and tds, right? But kyler had an int and fumble lost. Not sure about the grading there.

October 9, 20187 yr 2 minutes ago, hornian said: Hide? To be sneaky? Or because he was scared to go back on the field? The old "lie down in the end zone so the coverage team doesn't see you" trick. Worked for TCU and has worked in the past, but the Horned Frogs threw a forward pass instead of a lateral.
October 9, 20187 yr 15 hours ago, bluto said: The 3rd and 2 rollout screen we checked to at the line was a special brand of retarded. Yep, had we just run QB power twice to pick up the first down had Sam not gotten it on 3rd down, Texas would have run out the clock with a 14 point win.
October 9, 20187 yr I really wish overdrive or media woulda asked TH about that screen (to be honest, I'm guessing it was a screen as it's hard to tell)... was it sams check, was he given instructions to ground it if it wasn't totally open, was it supposed to go to the WR on boundary side, was it just good d... it looked like total shit whatever it was In retrospect, a sluggo at any point of those 3 drives woulda been so money.

October 10, 20187 yr the misery of the land thieves is so intoxicating. i love when they are so disheveled they cant even comprehend menial things. this is why college football is superior to any other level.The 2005 Orange bowl was outstanding in that regard. The walmarts in sofla were full of shell shocked sooners the next day.

October 11, 20187 yr I'm still basking in the glow of sending these overrated, arrogant turds out with an L. Kyler Murray playing scared and Lincoln Riley acting like a bitch were the icing on the cake. Firing Mike Stoops might help them a bit, but that it won't fix their softness. Edited October 11, 20187 yr by Bevo14
October 13, 20187 yr The game being last week vs this week worked out nicely because it is raining like a motherfucker here in Dallas. Would've been playing a monsoon or having a long weather delay because there's lightning here.
