  1. That was true of Tech as well.
  2. Holy shit! "I would say you have a vagina between your legs... but I know a lot of ladies that would of made that tackle in the same position." That about sums up our defense.
  3. Has Sark taken any players from defense to put them on offense? Schooler moved the other way, but that's the only one I can remember. Sanders really wanted to play offense so you can't blame Sark for giving him the chance. It's hard to point to any sign that Sark is interfering with PK. The initial game planning has been sound and the defense has held its own in the first half of every game including Arkansas and OU. The second half is the issue. The two most obvious explanations for a defense struggling late are TOP or turnovers/field position. Neither of those have been consistent problems. TOP was likely a factor against OU, but has been relatively even in the other games so that doesn't explain the defensive struggles. Turnovers and field position haven't been an issue either. Worthy fumbled the kick-off, but the flood gates were already open at that point. If anything, Sark may not be involved in the defense enough. Someone pointed out in the game thread that we have a great offensive coordinator, but it's not clear we have a great head coach. For whatever reason, PK doesn't make adjustments or isn't making them fast enough. That's where a HC would generally be able to help, but I don't know how engaged Sark is during the game on that side of the ball.
  4. I was excited about Jeff Choate as well, but he's been a disappointment so far. It doesn't seem to be simply an issue of talent. Getting trucked or losing a footrace is a talent issue and we've seen plenty of that from the linebackers. Not understanding their assignment and running themselves out of plays is a coaching issue.
  5. Had Enough, how much is your NIL deal with Card?
  6. I agree in spirit, but aggy is 5-5 against MSU since joining the SEC and have lost 4 of the last 6.
  7. Tell me you're not from Texas without telling me you're not from Texas.
  8. Bijan is going to do Bijan things. Worthy will be the key against OU. I don't know what was going on against TCU, but we need the Worthy who played against Tech. We don't need Casey to hit the deep ball if he can hit Worthy on the move in space. Though hitting on some of those passes would be nice too.
  9. So Perkins is Taylor Mays, but hopefully with actual football instincts?
  10. Sooo.... Emmitt?
  11. Casey had an awful game and his receivers didn't help, with the exception of Whitt. That said, I don't remember seeing any signs of panic. He stayed calm and ran the offense, just not very well. I'll be curious to see how the team plays on the road the rest of the season. The two best teams we've played were both on the road. (TCU isn't all the much better than Tech, but they fired up for Texas so played much tougher.) Most teams play better at home, but there seems to be a significant difference between the offense and the defense. The defense seems fairly consistent from game to game with stretches of good play mixed with poor drives/plays. The offense is completely different at home and on the road. I can't tell yet if that is the competition, the atmosphere, or both.
  12. It's hard for a man to understand something when his livelihood depends on him not understanding it.
  13. Oh, he's gotten his hands dirty. Just not with dirt.
  14. I call BS. Not even Rattler's mother/sister/aunt think's he's attractive and she's dating him.
  15. Lincoln Riley thinks he makes a mean brisket
  16. If Sark kicks the field goal and TCU goes down and scores a touchdown, we'd all be discussing whether it was a mistake kicking the field goal instead of going for it. Anything less than a touchdown and someone is complaining. For the record, I liked the decision to go for it, but not the play call.
  17. Lincoln Riley would like to speak with the manager!
  18. Lincoln Riley really does read Playboy for the articles.
  19. Bellichick: Sweep the leg. Do you have a problem with that?
  20. I kinda-sorta-but-not-really see why Flood plays Jones. It's like me and golf. I've only played a handful of times, don't particularly enjoy it, and suck at it. But I made just enough good shots that my competitiveness kicked in and I wanted to play again because I knew I could do better. In reality, I probably would have sucked just as much no matter how much I played. Flood has to look at Jones and think the same thing. Jones has all the tools and does just enough that Flood wants another shot at making Jones better. So far, I'm better at golf than Jones is at left tackle.
  21. He had a brutal start to the game. He missed the tackle on the first TD (though Cook missed first). Then on one of Evans' long runs early in the game, he sprinted to the left while Evans ran right up the middle. I have no idea where he was going.
  22. I don't know about the Cotton Bowl, but it helps with analytics. I'm sure CDC is paying attention to who shows up and who doesn't.
  23. This game really highlighted the difference between Bijan and RoJo. RoJo is really good, but he needs some space to get going. Bijan just pulls yards out of thin air.
  24. There was a play just like this against Rice. Flood has to get these guys to communicate with each other.
