Nah. I've given this game a pretty deep think and we're going to stomp the shit out of them wire-to-wire.
They literally won't be able to do anything on offense. If they favor the run (which they will, because their entire WR corps is injured) we won't stay in dime like we did against MSU. We will adjust our gameplan to match what they're doing. Our defense is better overall than it was last year and their offense is much, much worse. Our DBs in particular have improved, and although the DTs have gotten a bit worse, the fall off is not that bad. Plus we're better at the edges. Almost all CFB games come down to which team has the better QB? They've got a true freshman at QB who, although talented, is not nearly on Ewers' level. Our safeties are going to pick up the slack that we've seen in the run game (mostly from our LBs) and that will be that for them on offense. I'll be shocked if they score more than 10 points.
On the other side of the ball - our offense is in an entirely different league than theirs. We have one of the nastiest o-lines in CFB, we have a veteran QB who can comfortably distribute the ball against pretty much any defense, we have an insane stable WR who are among the best in the country. Our RB room is thin and one of our RBs is prone to turning the ball over. And turnovers are the one thing that might kill us. But I'm not overly preoccupied about that for a few reasons:(1) If Blue can't get his shit together, bench him. Problem solved. But what if we need Blue's pass blocking? What if we're worried about depth and don't want him to quit on the season?
(2) Just lean on the passing game. Yes, I would rather the offense be balanced and I would rather be "run first," but our passing game is B-A-N-A-N-A-S. It's fucking nuclear. We can bomb it all over the field and I don't see how they'll stop us. Quinn is not perfect, but he's not at all prone to throwing picks. And if they overcommit to stop the pass then that makes the running game that much easier, regardless of Blue's deficiencies. But, more importantly....
(3) I think Blue will clean it up and have a great game. Tashard Choice is still his coach. Dude is still in his contract year. He's had two weeks to think about this and work on things. Blue knows he needs to hit some home runs on the big stage to make an impression on the NFL. He can't afford to have a bad game and I think he will do everything possible to see that he doesn't. And if he still does, despite his best effort, see points (1) and (2).
Their defense is good, but it's not much better than Michigan's, if at all. And Sark STILL hasn't gotten deep in his bag this year. We immediately went vanilla against Michigan when he saw the game over. If we need it - and I don't think we will - Sark can pull out the stops and show OU some shit they haven't prepared for. I'd rather save that for UGA if we can, but we don't have to. There are just too many ways for our offense to beat the best defenses in the country, and OU is not one of those.
We're not sleep walking into this game like we did last year. We are better and they are worse. We are absolutely going to ruin their Saturday and I don't think it will be close.

Yeah, I'm talking game time, not Gameday. If we lose to OU, we're not getting a night game. But we're not going to lose to OU. Still, SEC will show the 2:30 or 6:30 to provide ABC cover on the game time decision they have to make. They're not making that decision on Monday...unless Tennessee loses tonight.

I’ve let my kids taste margaritas when they were little. Never thought twice about it. This kind of anger is bizarre.
I usually let them try grand cru champagne -

Seems like no one could make tackles either except agent zero

Was this game borderline erotic?

These people are morons. If Quinn is healthy he is the starter, anyone suggesting otherwise is a fucking moron that didn't actually watch the game against UTSA, when Arch struggled after his 1st 3 plays of the game. He was dangerously close to getting another 3 and out, before a really good throw to Golden to pick up the 1st down and that settled him down.
I look at it this way, Arch isn't ready to navigate the pocket the way Quinn did against Michigan, it took Quinn 3 years to understand how to do it, and Quinn doesn't take that horrible sack against UTSA on the field corner blitz.
If Quinn struggles with Georgia, which is a doubtful premise, given how he plays in big games, Sarkisian isn't yanking him for Arch.

I have never harbored delusions of grandeur and an undefeated season/playoffs, so I'm not too torn up about last night's L.
I got exactly what I needed out of this game: Be in the fight with a P5 late in the game, and show everyone, including ourselves, that we're legit. The W would have been a huge bonus, but in the big picture of the program overall, that singular result isn't as important as the process. My goal for this year has always been a Sun Belt title, and nothing I've seen so far tells me that can't happen.
More than anything, I'm incredibly proud of the students for showing up and showing out the last 2 games. They really made a difference in the game, causing false starts, timeouts, etc. Unreal atmosphere that I wasn't sure we'd ever see in SMTX. Seeing students cheer on all 3 downs of defense, get bonkers on 3rd down, quiet each other down of offense - hell, even the alumni side was up and out of their seats the whole game and cheering. 25K+ on a weeknight and 9k+ students at the game? Win right there.
This was epic:

In the Big 12, the ULM game would have been on LHN.
Which is basically PPV
