  1. I am more concerned about Adimora's lack of PT than Owens. Owens was a low 4 star who tested well after he committed and got overhyped. I also think that he was rated a 5 star after he signed in the last rankings update. Adimora on the other hand has actually made plays for this team in the past and has good ball skills. it will be very interesting to see what Texas does in the portal because we will have a lot of holes and a chance to reinvent what we do on D.

    I wonder if Sarkisian fails to realize that the quick strike offense, while exciting and absolutely essential at times, is nullified by the defense staying on the field for way too long. Time of possession is certainly not everything and I certainly don't advocating going full Jimbo snapping the ball with less than a second on the play clock (probably couldn't even do that because our OL doesn't focus and would likely be penalized), but it must be taken into account. 

    Saying this a week after we almost lost to tcu due to struggles in the redzone is laughable. Never leave points on the field. Score, score, and score some more.

    As long as there is a problem with defense, there will always be a potential for a shootout. I get that we're damn nearly every team's Super Bowl, but OU sucks scored the most points it did all season against us. Some of that is mitigated by the fact that OU's backup QB came in and their offense began firing on all cylinders. 

    Given the results of the first two conference games, don't be surprised if we're in for more close games decided by single digits. 

    The coaching staff is selling future potential to recruits. Most can see it on the offensive side, but outside of DL, it's more difficult to visualize that potential on the defensive side. 

    @Barbacoahave you heard any scuttlebutt about plans for the portal for defensive players?

    I mean it’s modern CFB bro this is always a possibility haha. Everyone has shootouts

    the lovely part about this is Gundy gets and extra week and our OU game tape to chew on.  

    I thought we had a chance to be 5-1,  coming into this game but 4-2 isn't the end of the world.  Steve has a big job this week.  season could get ugly.

    After Arkansas, everyone saw the schedule and it was best case scenario for us to go through Tech, TCU, OU, and Okie lite with a 3-1 record. That is still on the table. The doom and gloom stuff gets old guys. Just appreciate a team and watch guys get better. We had a freshmen go 9 catches for 261 and two td’s yesterday. Future is bright.

    False. They couldn't run him out of Columbus fast enough. They gave up 100 more yards per game from the previous year after he became DC. Or Co-DC, if you want to split hairs. All I know is that going from tOSU to Oklahoma is at best a lateral move, and more accurately a GTFO from Urban Meyer.

    Sure, he's been better than Mike Stoops was at OU, but I'm still not buying him as some great defensive mind. This conference isn't what it once was offensively. 

    He was not the playcaller at Ohio state

    Can you elaborate on your thoughts about Grinch? Or what the word "great" means to you, so we can have some context?

    Everywhere he’s been he’s made the defense better. He takes away what the offense does best and forces you to beat him differently than you beat the last team. His teams struggle with vertical offenses but he balances it out with an aggressive approach that makes you go quick passing game. He runs a sound scheme and won’t beat himself. He trusts his athletes to be athletes which is admirable considering this is the age where every coach is trying to reinvent the wheel.
