Did you see his eyes when they were tossing the coin for OT?  Bill Bradley once was asked to call heads or tails and he replied it don't make a shit.  Ossai's look said the same thing-no way you are going to win this game, I won't allow it.

YES! I was going to make that comment during the game but I guess I didn't. He was looking at Sanders and his eyes said "I'm going to fucking bury you".

I really want to give up on this team. Ossai makes it hard to do.

I'm trying to think of who he reminds me of. Orakpo? Kindle? He absolutely changes everything on defense.

Kindle off the edge, tbh. He's that dominant.

Compared to Kindle, Ossai has a Shelby motor and Kindle had a Briggs & Stratton from a push mower.

Or something like that. I could wordsmith that better if I were sober, but the point is that Ossai plays harder than maybe anyone who has ever put on Texas jersey.

12 tackles 6 TFL 3 sacks and a forced fumble...holy shit.  Won the game in OT.  Hard pressed to think of a more dominant defensive player performance in recent memory.  As in, I can't.

Yeah, he's special. Other than Derrick Johnson, I can't think of someone that just wills their self into dominance. Dude should be a 1st rounder without question, but the NFL is run by morons.

Ossai had 9 tackles, 6 TFL, 3 sacks in the Alamo Bowl

The announcers said it.  When your most talented player is the hardest worker on the team, good things have to happen.  That good thing was winning today.

What if we can convince him to stay?

 

Actually, hold that thought - I'll be in my bunk

I said after the bowl game that other than possibly Poona, no other defensive player had taken over a game like Ossai did since Malcom Brown.  Tonight was another one of those nights.  Amazing stuff.

He should get credit for 13 tackles because he damn sure tackled himself on his fumble recovery. 😂

Can't get over the game this young man had. All off season we talked about it and he flashed in games but today g took it to another level. Best game I've seen a UT defender have since 08 Earl vs ousux 

Alex Okafor with 4.5 sacks against Oregon State is the last I can think of.

This right here. The executioner peers down on his condemned victim with no regret, no empathy, only knowing that the outcome is certain.  Sanders is resigned to his fate and cannot look Ossai in the eyes.

i went back and rewatched it a few times, and it's subtle, but when Wallace leans in to better hear the ref you can see Ossai's head move with him- yet his fixed gaze doesn't move or blink. his his eyes remain locked on Wallace, like a leopard about to pounce for the kill. it seriously gave me goosebumps.

Looked like Lawrence Taylor today. Without coke.

As an aside, Ossai is a great young man off the field too.  I'd be truly shocked if he ever runs into trouble with the law.

Easy as hell to root for... and as a fan of football, just watching him wreak havoc and destruction to offenses is jaw-dropping at times.

He's Nigerian. Nigerian parents don't fuck around.

He is like a cat...he is ready to pounce at any moment. Sanders is a lucky man to have survived the game.
