  14. So last night while traversing bourbon street some fine OU clad gentlemen did not take a liking to my burnt orange polo or friendly gesture of hook em. While I’m sure the absinthe gave them courage to bow up like children I had to remind them they were 40 year old men wanting to fight and go to jail because kids today in football lost a game. As they departed the establishment I reminded them of the time 12:53 am and that in fact OU did still suck.

  19. Thoughts on this game after the dust has settled a bit: -Ehlinger played easily his best game as a Horn today. He's done that a few times this year, which means he's really starting to improve. His overall management of the game, ball control, and decision-making have improved immensely from the Maryland game. He made all the right plays today, and put this offense on his shoulders. -Keaontay Ingram is a future Heisman contender, if he can stay healthy. He has that "it" factor I haven't seen from a Texas back in while (probably Charles/Benson). -The defense forced OU to run the ball. For most of the game, Texas' secondary was absolutely stout, not giving Murray the little windows he's used to finding. They were beat over the top once or twice, but you'd expect that against the quality of athletes that OU has at the WR and QB position. Murray can create windows to throw in by sucking the safeties up to respect his running ability. By and large, they kept the game in front of them, which was a huge boost to the overall defensive effort. -This game was not as close as the final score would indicate. Let me be very clear, I was shitting bricks as soon as I saw the comeback begin, and Texas easily could have lost the game. In that sense, yes, it was that close. What I do mean is that Texas dominated the trenches, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. The Red River Shootout usually (not always, but usually) comes down to which team wants it more. That was obviously Texas for all but about a 5 minute stretch of the game. OU is good enough to punish that kind of lapse, but if Texas' playcalling hadn't gone into a shell with 10 minutes to go, and even despite that, if they hadn't committed a few unnecessary penalties in those sequences, we wouldn't be talking about a nail-biter for the ages, we would've been talking about a well-deserved ass kicking. There was no evidence OU's defense could stop Texas' balanced offense had they not limited the playbook, especially when they needed three stops on 3 possessions. I had a bad feeling as soon as I saw Texas running the game clock when we got the ball back up 21 early in the 4th. I knew our playcalling was going to get conservative, and being one-dimensional is a great way to let OU back into the game. -OU is soft. I don't mean this a typical, disparaging way fitting of an arch-rival, but their whole team, save for their RBs, seems to shy away from contact. Murray folds like paper when he feels pressure. He doesn't like to step up in a congested pocket. Their defense didn't seem remotely interested in making any solid tackles. There were multiple 3rd and longs where their unwillingness to wrap-up directly led to Texas finding themselves in a 4th and short, instead of a 4th and 7 or so had they just put a decent contact on the receiver. Both of those led to points. Honestly, it reminded me too much of Texas teams in the early 2000s against OU. Those games came down to effort; both teams were similarly stacked, and yet despite that, it was more often than not a complete ass-kicking. In stark contrast, since Charlie Strong got to campus, Texas seems to have been playing this game with a physicality and intensity it lacked during the Mack years. Sure, we've split the last 6 meetings, but Texas came into all of those as the underdog. And every one of the last 5 games was a one-possession game. All in a dumpster-fire era for Texas. So what's the prognosis? I've still yet to see Texas play a 4-quarter football game this year. We've played three 3-quarter games (USC, TCU, and OU), but I'm still searching for that dominant, 4-quarter performance where the game was never in doubt from the opening kick.

  21. DALLAS — In Tom Herman’s eyes, the play that sticks out is not a winning kick or a Kyler Murray fumble or one of Sam Ehlinger’s many fine moments. No, what stands out most to him in reflecting on No. 19 Texas’ 48-45 upset of No. 7 Oklahoma was a third-and-long. And it’s easy to see why. Herman’s physical brand of Texas football, the precise identity he’s aimed for from Day 1, is truly coming into focus. One play showed that Saturday at the Cotton Bowl. Texas faced third-and-21 on its opening drive of the second half. Ehlinger had just taken a sack back to Oklahoma’s 46-yard line, a rare mistake on an otherwise brilliant day. Texas kept it simple with a tunnel screen to Lil’Jordan Humphrey. Herman figured he’d pick up a few yards and then Texas would punt and hope to pin OU inside its 10. It was a well-blocked screen, but Oklahoma nickel back Brendan Radley-Hiles met Humphrey and hit him low at the 38. But Humphrey stayed up. Texas tight end Cade Brewer got an arm around Humphrey and tried to give him some push. In ran linemen Zach Shackelford, Samuel Cosmi and Elijah Rodriguez to propel them. Humphrey honestly had no idea who was behind him. “Just kept running,” he said. “Just kept moving my feet.” Suddenly, it was a scrum of five Longhorns against five Sooners defenders. And the Sooners didn’t stand a chance. They all kept moving, overwhelmed by forward momentum. When Humphrey finally fell down, he’d traveled 19 yards to the 27. “That, to me, was the play of the game,” Herman said. What Texas did after that — Ehlinger converted a fourth down and found the end zone four plays later to make it 31-17 — was important. But the how is really what matters. Texas won that play and won this Red River game by overwhelming with sheer brutality. “That’s a culture play for us,” Humphrey said. “It really shows our culture.” In this game, power beat speed. Oklahoma’s biggest plays were a 77-yard bomb to Marquise Brown, a 67-yard dash by Murray. Texas’ biggest plays were a 3-yard fourth-down conversion, a 2-yard run at the goal line. And when the Sooners came all the way back from down 21, Texas finished it in fitting fashion, grinding out a nine-play, 52-yard drive to set up Cameron Dicker’s winning field goal. That’s long been the tradition in this rivalry game. The more physical team usually wins the fight and leaves with the golden hat. Some not-very-good Texas teams have gritted their way to upset wins against superior Oklahoma teams in recent years. It most recently happened in 2015. It almost happened in Herman’s debut last season. This one felt different, at least for three quarters. The truth is Texas (5-1, 3-0 Big 12) beat Oklahoma (5-1, 2-1) the same way it beat TCU and USC, so maybe we should’ve seen this coming. The manner in which Texas pounded those foes in the second half and pushed them at the point of attack was an unexpected revelation. But not to Herman and his players. This is exactly who they want to be. “We want to be the most physical team in the Big 12,” Texas safety Brandon Jones said. “We strive to do that every week.” And that was evident again Saturday. Oklahoma defenders were standing around with their hands on their hips late in the third quarter, stuck on the field for 19 more plays than Lincoln Riley’s offense got to run that quarter. Yes, that Oklahoma defense was already shoddy. But on this day, Texas’ offense played with a level of efficiency and dominance that hasn’t been seen in a long time. Ehlinger has never been better than he is right now. He’s the personification of Herman’s intended culture, a tough and savvy 235-pound playmaker who’s not nervous in big games. Each one of the 84 yards he churned out over his 18 carries seemed critical. He’s exactly what this team needs, and he hasn’t turned it over in four weeks. Texas’ defense transformed quickly under Todd Orlando last season. It has had no trouble executing this sharp and brutal blueprint. For Herman’s offense, this has been a much more difficult process and a tough one to watch at times. But like Humphrey’s 19-yard fight, that positive forward momentum is starting to pile up. Still, let the fourth quarter be a lesson. Because if Texas was drunk with power, up 45-24 after three quarters, the final period was sobering. Murray and the Sooners played out their 21-point comeback perfectly and forced Texas to nervously try to win on a 40-yard kick by a true freshman. For Texas, it shouldn’t have come to that. And that feels indicative of where Texas stands today. Good enough and tough enough to play with anybody. Not good enough to whoop anybody for a full four quarters. This remains a work in progress, even after five consecutive wins, and that final quarter should put all the hype in perspective. When it was all over, some Texas players gave Herman a Gatorade bath. The jug hit the head coach on the back of his head. They really haven’t practiced that ritual much at Texas lately. They’re still learning how to win these games. But what they pulled off together Saturday sent a clear message: Herman’s vision for how to win big at Texas is beginning to come to life.

  22. Was out last night wearing my Beto pin as usual, and had people come up to me as usual, wanting to know where I got it, how to get one, blah blah blah. The sentiment behind the conversations carried a lot more gravitas yesterday. Especially with the women. Several of them were crying when they told me that they too supported Beto and that they wanted to get involved in his campaign, and that the last week had been intolerable. I knew exactly what the deal was with them. I could see it in their eyes and I know they could see it in mine. They are galvanized. But here's my biggest concern: I am still in shock and disbelief that the Kavanaugh thing has given a bump to the Republicans. I don't know why I'm shocked. You'd think I would have learned by now, but I keep waiting for that one thing that is going to cause them to turn. I think it has finally sunk in emotionally as well as intellectually that 1/3 of our country would break the law, ignore the constitution, protest the holding of elections - whatever their orange cheetoh god commands. Because liberals and democrats are worse than Russians, they are worse than Nazis, they are worse than terrorists, they are worse than anyone. So if we have to keep kids in cages and lie about it and ignore the Supreme court, that's OK. If we have to keep women down by whatever means to protect our boys, then it's OK. Kick them out of their jobs if they are a threat to men. Mexicans are all rapists and leeches. No more Latinos in this country. Muslims are all terrorists. Can't be Muslim in the U.S. anymore. Two term limit gonna endanger making America great? Ignore that rule. I believe 100% that Trump's minions would support these positions. And get enough crooked and biased judges and crooked, power-hungry Congress members, and it's not so farfetched that these things could happen. Not tomorrow or next week or next year, but certainly within a generation, two at the outside. Couple these positions with the elimination of the social safety nets, which is the stated goal of many Republicans, and the continued gutting of the public school system, which is already happening, and the possibility that a great many citizens will not be able to afford healthcare, which they are trying like hell to make happen and who knows where we go from there. I think it's something of a coin toss between a new Facist regime or a new pre-revolution France. And oh yeah, there's the anti-Semitism part. I told M12 as far back as Trump's campaign that sooner or later it would come around to the Jews because it always does. Then of course on Friday we got the Trump Soros tweet and the Grassley reinforcement. Does Trump believe that shit about Soros? Maybe not, but that's not what matters. What matters is the neo-Nazis are now ecstatic that the President of the United States has validated one of their narratives about the wealthy left-wing Jews secretly pulling the strings behind the scenes. Yep, right on schedule. OK I kind of got off on a tangent there, but that's how important I think these midterms are. It's now or never. Our spare bedroom Beto popup office opens today, and we already have some campaign people here. They are all so young and confident. I feel very old and tired and jaded. I've never felt this threatened or helpless before in my entire life. Maybe some of it is the re-experiencing of what happened to me (it's in the Trump thread if you missed it, I'm not gonna repost it here). But I think most of it is not fear of the past but fear for the future. These next 31 days are, I think, going to tell us the direction our country is going to move for at least the next 50 years. And, like I always say when I go on a rant like this: I hope to hell I'm wrong. But to drag out another old tired analogy, we are the frogs in the pot of water that is just starting to warm. I don't want to be in it when it starts to boil.

  30. Is the aggy story about Kyler on Surly? The dude quit on the team mid game and refused to go in. Apparently the entire team hated him. When he decided to transfer, both the football and basebell team cleared his locker and threw his shit outside the team locker room. This dude is the ultimate me first pussy. glad he's at ou. loved watching him cry in that post game and fuck Lincoln too. I hope your bitch ass is ready. This team has been the more physical team the last 5 years. Now that we're getting back to high level talent, we're going to make those fucks our bitches every year.

  31. As I have said continually through the thread, if the dude continues to be a part of the wins, I don’t give one fuck about anything but the wins. Implying that I’d like to lose is weak, pussy posting. I know you’re still hurt that I told you Charlie Strong wasn’t going to get it get done when you still needed that as part of your rooting identity or something, but I’m the same as I’ve ever been. Happy for the win, just like you dipshits. CTJ will have to comfort himself tonight by smelling his own farts. They smell like strawberries. Delicious. Absolutely incorrect. Literally this is the first football post I think I’ve ever read from you. I guess you’ve moved on from hiding after saying the same shit at me on the Shaggy recruiting board last summer. I always come back in and post, right or wrong. Implying otherwise is your own bullshit. So many mudholes, Alabama ball gargling, whatever. I take a lot of positions and sometimes they’re wrong. I have no obligation the day of a big win to do anything but enjoy it, do whatever the fuck else I want. Sorry you guys aren’t Astros fans and didn’t have plans on Saturday evening. Anyways, congrats to Sam Ehlinger and the big win yesterday. He fucking balled out and it was awesome to watch. The coaches fucked him, along with the holding calls, after we got up at 45. I’m glad he brought them back in the end when Herman’s switch was flipped again. Ehlinger has shown legitimate mental improvement, as far as I can see, and that’s somewhat shocking to me. I hope he can stay healthy and keep developing. I’m sure he’ll have down games mixed in too, but every QB ever seems like they try to lose a game or two each year, so isolated shit isn’t going to change my view that he’s showing a chance to develop into a stud. I hope he stays upward. I realize there’s this piece of shit trend on this board, especially with some guys on this thread, to go back, copy part of a post, and then repost that element and attack it, but not one fucking time on this thread have I rooted against Ehlinger. I said I don’t think he’s smart. I said he does everything average. I said, and continue to hope for, competition in the spring and the future (I view this as critical at every position and in life itself), and immediately after the Maryland game along with half the board, my first post here said he was a loser. I also said I hope he gets it figured out, that we keep winning, that he’s the guy this year barring injury, and that I want the program to win as much or more than anyone else bleeding out for Sam on this thread and that remains true. So I’m pumped and have found great entertainment in this thread. Congrats to the revelers here now. I hope you get to keep it up.
