  1. Sanders is the first read, it’s an easier throw, and he’s open. Its a rhythm offense. Quinn is a little late on it and the linebackers recovered from the play fake enough to get into the passing window.
  2. A&M’s DL better come ready to play for that game to be close. If Milton shows up at all, Tenn wins. Same offense our guys just went up against, but with slightly better skill players.
  3. I’m pretty sure they expected to win the LOS and create havoc that way. Playing aggressive with that expected advantage exposes your defense more than necessary. We also had poor tackling, so thinning the secondary even more than their scheme does would have led to pretty horrible results if DG got the ball out in time.
  4. Because if the coverage team is there, then you’re starting at the 1 yard line instead of having some breathing room.
  5. Williams clearly bumps the coverage when that guy goes in motion. The other guys apparently didn’t get the message. It’s either on Thompson or Gbenda. I’m guessing Gbenda. I would have liked a TO at some point on that drive too. Our guys were flailing out there
  6. On rewatch, QE was a little late, but it was a tight window due to the linebackers getting into the passing window and that part of the field being more constricted. Tough catch, but JT's gotta help his QB there.
  7. At the time, they were actually playing well enough to get him off the field. They were stuck at 27 after the first drive of the second half. In total, the defense didn’t do well against him at all.
  8. I believe he should have gone for it. I can also see why he went for the FG.
  9. It was the conservative thing to do, which isn’t always a bad thing. Our defense was doing well against DG and Quinn had already turned the ball over 3 times and we had a backup center out there with no JT. It’s the kind of call that is only “right” if it works out in the end.
  10. I thought we were gonna be aggressive the entire way through when they were doing that. If we failed to convert, we still had timeouts and maybe a chance to get the ball back. I was even more certain we were going for it when he ran the ball on 3rd and 9. on 4th and 4, we went out there and they were showing a heavy box, turned out we were only trying to draw them offsides. Even after the timeout, i figured we had something we could execute for 5 yards to put the game in our hands.
  11. Watts makes no difference in this game. Fully believe that.
  12. He's not gonna test well. He needs to head to the league after this year though.
  13. Quinn was easily one of the best players in this game Once he settled in, he was nails. OU defense played its ass off.

    The running into the kicker penalty that extended their drive is effectively another turnover too. Gabriel gave them that opportunity with the way he saved the bad snap too.

    We can lose to anyone if we play like we did in the first quarter for an entire game. If we were against anyone else today, we win the game. Dillon Gabriel was big time on that last drive. Very similar to what Bryce Young did against us last year.

    We effectively had 4 turnovers in this game and they still needed a minute drive to win the game. The only thing Sark did that wasn't happy about was kicking the FG when he did. He trusted his defense, which has been nails all season, and they failed to get it done. Shit happens. Jerrin Thompson should have picked off Gabriel and he didn't. Jt Sanders bobbles a catch and it turns into a redzone turnover. Shit happens. This game felt like a bad loss, but they kept fighting and it wasn't force feeding the ball to Worthy. Sark called a pretty good game. Their guys just made plays on a regular basis.

    You can show someone how to block when it comes to stuff like that. They definitely practice it. They are big enough to block the guys they were asked to block. They are used to being physical. They just failed to execute the block. Doesn't matter if they were an OL or a DL, they are a blocker period.
  18. Our DBs cant turn and run like I hoped we'd be able to. DL played poorly, but the QB run and missed tackles really ruined the defense today. We didn't do enough to get Gabriel uncomfortable. PK would definitely like to have this game back.

    I would have liked more blitzing, but our back end was already playing suspect in their tackling. It's just crazy that they gave up a TD when i was just wondering if they would have a chance at a FG.

    You want your guys to play loose, and they didn't. The back 7 of the defense needs to be reevaluated during the bye. The linebackers looked horrible most of the game. The DL was getting pushed back consistently. We missed multiple tackles because we were out of control. The moment was too big for many of them. Ewers got his head on straight, but Jaylan Ford and David Gbenda were lost for much of the day.

    "Sark had his lunch eaten early, then adjusted and we came back" We got outplayed and outphysicaled. We should have been able to lean on these guys, make tackles, get penetration, etc. These things happen in football. Poor coaching throughout gets us blown out in this game.

    Negged for being an emotional overreactive pussy. The team got punched in the mouth and took a while to get their composure. Scheme-wise, the players were put in position to make plays but missed tackles and didn't populate the football like they normally do. "hurr durr, that's on the corches to get them to play right" Nah, the players gotta make plays when they have the opportunity to do so.

    Fickle people. The OL and DL played pretty poorly. Quinn played much better after the first quarter. Sark had his lunch eaten early, but he adjusted. OU came ready to play at every level. We shouldn't have been in this game, but instead we were up with a minute and change to go. The defense shat down its leg when they needed to tighten up the most. It happens. Lots of big injuries too. The only way this was gonna be an easy game was if the OL/DL controlled the game like some expected. It didn't happen, we turned the ball over, and still barely lost.
  24. This is as bad as he's played in a long time. But the DL is doing him no favors.
  25. He's lost out there. It's getting compounded by missed open field tackles
