  1. Username checks out.
  2. At the margins, the refs won't help you AT ALL if you behave like him. Also, the inability to control your behavior shows lack of discipline to your team. The "move on to the next play" is important mantra to play and live by, and he's showing he isn't capable of it.
  3. As Sooner fan who certainly has no specific love of Gundy, I admire how much he gets out of his team annually. One game doesn't change this.
  4. OU running the ball effectively today is the best thing about this game so far.
  5. Someone I know got fired for using it last year. He was a friend. Was.
  6. When OU can run the ball, Gabriel has huge windows to find receivers, and the offense is fluid. When the Sooners can't run the ball, Gabriel's inaccuracy shows, and the offense stalls. Despite the disastrous offensive performance vs UT, OU's OL may have had it's best run blocking game to date. The OL improved upon that vs a weak Kansas DL. Further growth in the OL will be key to OU's offense. Iowa St, Baylor, and Ok St have average to better DL that'll test OU's OL. The OU defense has been a tire fire, especially vs the run. The Kansas run game is good, and OU perform okay vs the Jayhawks (with backup QB) rushing attack. That's the only positive. OU's defense just has to try to improve through the rest of the season, again. I think every game is a toss up for the Sooners with OU holding somewhere between a 40 - 60% pre-game win expectancy. This is very different for OU fans. Just last year, prior to the beginning of the year, OU had a > 70% win expectancy in 9 or 10 games and had a > 50% in all.
  7. Venables' policy is now apparently that commits can't go on official visits to other schools (eyeroll). That said, the heartburn OU fans have for Vasek is misplaced. OU's biggest issues on the DL at 0, 1, and 3 technique, and the Sooners are in jeopardy of missing on their 3 options at those positions: Hicks, Deal and Kayden McDonald. It would be nice if OU keeps Vasek, but I'd trade Vasek for any of the the interior DL options at this point. OU's got Adebawore and shot at Tausili Akana, whose highlight film looks as good as Vasek's. The Sooners should focus on getting either Deal or McDonald and keep after Akana so they're ready if/when Vasek goes.

    Watching USC this year, for me, is like watching OU for the last 5 years. This game is essentially the same as the 2019 OU-Iowa St game except Iowa St missed the 2 point conversion.

    Alex Grinch defenses keep things interesting.

    Yeah, but this remains a typical a typical Lincoln Riley - Alex Grinch joint: top 5 offense, top 50 defense. To stop the Riley OU offenses, and I think this SC offense, the opposing DL has to dominate their running game and get pressure. I don't think they play one in the P12. Huard is a UW guy, and he was right in this case.

    Honoring the players who died.
  13. KU 8th drive Good KU 9th drive Good OU's defense has been competent on 4 out of last 5 KU drives.
  14. KU 5th drive 3-3 OU 41 missed assignment * wasn't a facemask Great INT KU 6th drive 1-10 DE washed 5 yd gain, rest did ok 2-10 Well played vs option 3-10 KU OL blows assignment, sack KU 7th drive 1-10 KU 25, #28 doesn't attack RB, costs 3 yds 1-10 KU 36, no OU players get off blocks, safety #6 (SR) blows tackle, doesn't even slow him down 1-10 OU 18, LB allows TE to blow by him
  15. Right decision to go for it with the way OU's offense has been getting yards and with the way OU's defense has been giving them up.
  16. Gabriel's misses more on 3rd down, I think. I'm going to start charting it.
  17. KU drive #4 1-10 KU 35, missed sack 2-10 KU 35, DE #8?, well played option, no gain 3-10 KU 35, OU in man coverage, #8 loses contain, KU QB would've had 1st down + a lot if he hadn't stumbled. OU catches a break on defense. OU drive #5 OU fails to play complimentary FB -- OU picks up 3rd down blitz, Mims is open on deep slant, Gabriel misses 3rd down throw, again
  18. 2nd KU drive 1st-10 KU 35, #40 missed tackle in backfield, should've been -4 yds, instead +1 2nd-10 OU 30, DE loses edge, 21 yd option run 2nd-10 OU 11, DT gets washed, #28 crunched by C, TD 3rd KU drive #31 good play to bat ball #40 holds edge no gain #12 plays ball, should've had pick Supposedly, he's great at everything other than playing DB. (top 100 recruit!)
  19. #25 senior safety could've had a pick if he looked for the ball
  20. 7-7 OU defense playing dumb again. 2nd-10 KU 25, missed tackle #2 (Sr), 4 yds extra 3rd-6 KU 31, offsides #31 (Sr) 3rd-1 KU, miss assignment #23 (Sr), 11 yds 2nd-11 OU 38, safety doesn't look at the ball #25 (Sr), ball caroms into KU WR hands, TD
  21. I guess we'll see. This is a big visit weekend for OU commits and targets, and he's in Austin. Not a great look.
  22. Vasek at UT today so this'll be the first test of Venables "no visits to other schools" policy.
  23. It's obvious Mim's good. I think he declares despite low numbers.
  24. If only...there are 2 big differences between OU's offensive and trajectory and UT's resurgence since last year: 1. OU's OL is getting worse. Lebby's scheme is supposed to be easier on OL, not harder. And this year, the OU is a step below last years, continuing the trend. This is on Bedenbaugh and Lebby. 2. It's very clear OU doesn't have a genius OC who scheme his team to easy yards and points. Lebby's probably above replacement level, but it's obvious he can't conjure up a strategy to take the load off of his QB.
  25. He should print those, complete with a rendering of his one catch. This is the poor guy's third year. When he was a frosh, he had Rattler closing the season strong and leading a top 3-4 team going into 2021 with classmate Caleb Williams in the bullpen. Last Saturday, he was a blocking split end for a wildcat offense.
