OL improvement

[Bevo 13899]

A big part of our success today was Ewers' quick decision making. We had some nice completions where we would have probably taken sacks earlier in the season. With that said, our offensive line is helping also. We had great running lanes and Ewers for the most part had a decent amount of time in the pocket.

It also helped that OU's entire defense is dogshit.  But yes, OL did what OL should have done against this team.

I knew we were gonna win when Banks was getting into it with a defender on the 2nd drive. This team feels different with Ewers. Oline has to know they give Ewers time to throw, he gonna pick apart Ds. Which makes run blocking easier because D can't commit 8 in the box.

Ewers was basically untouched.  Big boys put in outstanding work today.

Serious question: was the OU Dline the worst ever? Texas’ line hasn’t given that much protection in years, against even the Rice’s of the world. 

They looked great.

They did their job today. Looking at the boxscore, Texas as a team had 2 penalties for 10 yards.....all game. Not one ill-timed, dumbass  holding penalty. Competition be damned, if they play like that the remainder of the year, good things will happen.

The tackles were nails in pass pro.

His improvement is pretty incredible. He seems to like right tackle.

Yes our competition was weak. But we absolutely skull fucked them. That’s what good teams do to bad teams. We could have scored in the 60’s with relative ease. Banks taking his man 20 yards downfield and sparing with him in the end zone was the zeitgeist for the line today. Jones could have been criminally charged for what he did to guy in front of him on several running plays. The line is better and Ewers makes everything better in this offense.

We made them look like ass. This is such a shitty mindset some of you guys have here.

We play well so the other team must obviously suck!

We struggle so we must obviously suck!

There are teams other than Alabama that can play. If we play well against them, it doesn't just mean that they suck.

Yeah, except everyone knew coming into the game that OU's defense was complete dogshit.  That wasn't just some hot take I came up with because we scored 49 and dominated the line.  120 out of 131 teams in rushing defense and 109 out of 131 in total defense before this game.  And that includes games against world-beaters UTEP, Kent State and the fighting Caseys.

Exactly. Ou sucks but like they really fucking suck. Their defense does nothing even good. It’s pretty abysmal. But we handled out shit like we should. They will lose a few more games this year

It was also a rivalry game and anything could have happened. We treated them like a fucking team of dog shit losers

[Llewelyn Moss 220]

Go watch Christian Jones on the TD run by Brooks. Dude manhandles TWO defenders. His run blocking is a legit positive.

Yeah we took their best shot in the first quarter. Even opened with a 3 and out. But we settled in and started bullying them in the trenches
