OU Football 2025 - League Average & Loving It
SimkinsMan replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
Interesting article that I missed this summer, thanks for sharing bill. I must say there are no clear lines of leadership here. Who is in charge? The University president, Harroz? The "football chair" Stephenson who is hiring the next AD (but maybe wants the job)? Nagy, the GM? Skeletor, the coach? The next AD? That is a recipe for dysfunctional leadership. And when you layer on the blame game at the end of what is likely to be an 8-4 or 7-5 type season with a blow-out loss to Texas, it is going to be a bloodbath. Can't wait! -
Some of you people are such a fucking beating. For those who may not remember, the 2010 Texas football team went 5-7, with five of those losses at home. They were: UCLA 12-34 Iowa State 21-28 Baylor 22-30 Oklahoma State 16-33 Texas 8&4 17-24 Do you think this team, already with four wins, is going to lose five of its next six games? Do you see Past-his-prime Brown on the sidelines? Do you think Manning is Garrett Gilbert? If so, fuck off and don't come back. Seriously, go away.

And this kid is still balling out for Texas. By far the team's best RB and was our most important offensive weapon today. Also supremely underappreciated by our fanbase.

Hey fuckstick, he's a true freshman OT who is stepping into a difficult position because his football team desperately needs him. And step up he did.

Imma's right. The majority of posters on this thread have a serious case of bitchass. Texas has played some lousy football so far this year. At times they've also looked pretty good. The reality is that, in almost all facets of life but certainly in football with unpredictable young men, things are never as good nor as bad as they appear. The OU game is a gift for the Texas football team (and its bitchass fanbase) after the dreadful showing in Florida last weekend. It's an opportunity to get right, to find their mojo on the biggest of stages, and to reset the table for the rest of the season. In an era of a 12-team playoff everything is still there to play for. We waited all offseason for a new football season. Now it's here, and it's the divine hour of our greatest rivalry. If you can't get pumped about that, fuck right off.

If Chapel Bill is run out of town I will be disappointed (but not surprised). His ridiculous hiring and coronation; North Carolina desperately throwing everything behind him in terms of resources; the whole Jordan "I'm not a whore, we're really in love" fiasco; her trademarking of every dumb saying imaginable; hiring all of his dipshit sons as coaches; and his severe failings as a college football HC have been one of the great stories of the last 10 months. If he leaves, heaven help us, we will have to focus on Texas football again.

I'm rolling with Bobby Burton, who predicted losses to Ohio State and Florida before the season started. After that, he had Texas winning out.

UCLA's return to dominance no longer featuring DeShaun Foster

It's been a shitty day, but I'm happy for @Sbbruin! -
Jesus fuck I've never seen such bedwetting about the potential for some rain showers during a football game. Almost certainly it's going to be just fine.

Quick update on the weather. The trend over the last 24 hours has been toward less storm coverage during Saturday afternoon. Thunderstorms (with game delaying lighting) are still entirely possible, but at this point I would only place the chance of rain during the game at about one-in-three. In any case it does not appear to be wall-to-wall storms so the game is gonna get played. Winds may be more impactful. I think we're looking at sustained winds of 10 to 15 mph with higher gusts, perhaps occasionally reaching 25 or 30 mph. That is definitely noticeable, but the Swamp is built below ground level, and the stands are built up all around the field. I'm not an engineer, but this suggests to me the winds may be less of an issue on the field than outside the stadium. In summary, we walk out of the field like this:

Damn, the UCLA athletic director has a $7.1 million buyout? Y'all are screwed.
