  2. Fuck these announcers
  3. Dude. Shut up. He was nowhere near the first down line on that run
  4. Yeah, that was pretty egregious, and highly impactful. His knees and elbows and hips... ALL hit the ground in-bounds and then he slid out. It was effectively a free timeout for Kentucky, saving enough clock for at least two extra snaps on the drive that let them tie the game.
  5. It's the Franklin's barbecue of pedals.
  6. Someone else made an observation that I think is totally true: It's hard to remember a Texas-OU game in the last 10 years with fewer momentum swings. OU fans had almost no big plays to cheer for. No turnovers. Very few chunk-yardage plays. Nothing on special teams. Just a few first downs and a couple mid-range FGs. Their biggest cheers all day were for pregame OU douchebaggery (trying to pick fights during warm-ups) and for Mateer taking the field.
  7. Yeah, they're what Georgia was up until the last 5 years: Pre-season top-10 Feast on cupcake schedule Go 3-3 vs teams with a pulse. Finish 9-3. Pre-season top-10 Repeat. They'll make the playoffs, but I cannot imagine a Miami team winning four tough, physical playoff games to end a season.
  8. Calling two timeouts there is kind of bush league.
  9. I miss Bolden. Dude had swagger, and played HARD every snap.
  10. OU hasn't snapped it inside the Texas 20 since 2023.
  11. I'm still angry too. Coming into that RRS, the *consensus* was "OU is playing better than anyone!"... and we kicked their ass on a neutral field, scoring TD after TD in the second half while they were punting, fake punting, and flop punting. We were clearly the tougher, better team, and we proved it, winning by two scores and leaving no doubt. That was one of the most satisfying wins in UT history. Then a few weeks later, we lost on the road to a top-5 team... on the last snap from scrimmage. Which put us in a 3-way tie, in a round robin where we were the only team not to get a home game, and OU was the only team not to play a road game. And at the end of the year: "OU is playing better than anyone!" while Briles, Stoops, and their entire coaching trees were voting UT #5 in the coaching poll (which was part of the formula at the time). Such bullshit. Did I already say that I'm still angry?
  12. I really cannot remember the last time "let's bring in our rules expert" led to an insightful comment.
  13. When Fox cuts away to the shot of the Big 12 review center, does anyone else's brain automatically fill in the Benny Hill theme music?
  14. Did anyone see this coming? I don't follow Bama all that closely, so I didn't really have an opinion on the Tide... but I sure heard a lot of pundits assure us they'd be "back" this year.
  15. 100% this. Yes, maybe the ball moves. But it doesn't touch the ground.
  16. I have yet to see an angle where the ball hits the ground.
  17. I miss Bolden. He took a LOT of chances fielding the ball, but he was also a fucking threat.
  18. Yeah, I thought the biggest question marks were 1) can the transfer DT's just be serviceable vs good running teams, and 2) are the WRs who waited their turns to be starters good enough to threaten a defense? So far: yes, and no. Man, what I would give for Golden, Bolden, Worthy, or Mitchell.
  19. Yeah, our transfer DTs have done a pretty good job, and that felt like the biggest question mark coming into the game. The defense is one poorly-timed penalty from shutting out some of the best skill players in the country. The offense is just terribly out-of-sorts, and given Sark's history of superb pre-game preparation in games like this (Bama, Michigan), that's a massive disappointment.
  20. Yeah, coming off his foot, I thought it was an intentionally-short punt aiming for a boundary. Surprised it carried like that.
  21. Yeah, at the beginning of that drive, they were averaging 6.8 yards per rush and less than 2 yards per completion. And they came out with five wide. Ugh.
  22. Cincinnati has done Nebraska a huge favor by making themselves one-dimensional when there was still two minutes left in the game
  23. Cincinnati goes into the fourth quarter averaging 5.7 yards per rush, yet they only have one touchdown. That seems like bad coaching to me. They're like a bear, with these fangs and these big claws. And they're just saying, "How do I kill the bunny?"
