Ewers looking very Garrett Gilbert-esque

Rice is better than advertised

Rice was actually advertised as being more legit than the average rice team. It's a team full of 5th year seniors and they covered the spread the majority of their games last year.

No. This has been consistently awful.  One TD in 5 drives against fucking Rice. No push in the run game (even the long run was bad blocking but Baxter caught them overpurusing), Ewers looks like shit missing throws and not reading the defense and we’re still not close to hitting the deep ball while Sark keeps putting us in third and long. 

U forget the dropped sure TD pass?  Calm the fuck down, Nancy.  It's the first half of the first half, you gaping gash

[hobbes2702 13049]

Needed that defense. Big play

[USNALonghorn 5078]

This defense fucks

[Valmy77 13247]

Defense is doing what they should today.

All offseason long this board acted like Ewers wasn’t going to come out and be the Ewers we saw last year.

He just doesn’t have it.

Liking this defense

So here's my choices

Rice is better than advertised

Seppuku

Which do I choose?

Make it easier for the rest of us. 

[naija 2869]

can the offense make something out of this please? we now know we can kick the short FGs

[MillerEP 30492]

Car alarm is the new Int sound I guess?

[AUS-97HORN 11809]

and LOL at the stadium sound effects of a car alarm on the INT

[Gatorubet 30254]

Goddamn Rice…it’s like you put me in as QB. 

[Rickylovesweed 14507]

PK is a good defensive coordinator. The board reacted too quickly after year 1. 

[HuntinHorn 986]

Defense saving Ewers ass

OU put up fucking 80 today and we can’t score TDs against Rice 

This is why the ol "Well it's just *insert shitty team*" argument is dumb. Sure, Arkansas State sucks but OU did what they should have and then some. Kicked their ass straight out the gate. Texas is struggling against a shitty Rice team at home. Not a great feel to start the season but still a lot of game left today. But this game isn't really my concern. They will sleepwalk to a win today. Bama on the road next week, you dick around and shit will go bad. Even a "down" Bama team is still damn good, especially at home.

[The Ace of Aces 5192]

Too bad the INTs aren’t pick 6s. 

[ztejas 43499]

Watch Sark piss away an amazing D because he won't bench our shitty QB. Hope y'all are ready for it.

It would’ve been nice to get some depth players some game reps but here we are setting up a down to the wire pillow fight.

They’re already playing all over the place. 

[Dark Horse 2284]

Maybe we can do something with a short field. 

[Coach pop a bitch 5484]

Love the alarm 

[RamjetFDO 10577]

Quack quack quack!

16-3 coming up

QE3 bout to turn sanders into a 6th round pick

And himself into an insurance salesman 

[Modessit 5603]

That Sweat chest bump was awesome.

I can't believe I'm not even a half into the season and already out of Ewers. Nothing he has shown has said he's going to be the guy. He can't throw deep, he's no run threat, he flinches on blitzes, he doesn't look confident and certainly doesn't act like any type of team leader.

At least he's not JT Sanders.

[TexArcher 37987]

Car alarm INT sound ruuuuuuuuled, lol

[Macklemore 2873]

JT Daniels sucks. Can’t believe he was a 5 star recruit.

You have a shit memory. GG was one of our most hyped recruits in school history.

Just now, Duane Moore said:

I am there as well. Everyone feel free to save this and light me up next week if he shreds Bama, but I’m wondering how the recruiting services got his evaluation so very wrong. 

You don’t remember Vince struggling early on?

It’s the first half and we’ve shown no ability to sustain drives at all. Against fucking rice

So many weapons… so many dud plays against a Rice team. Can anybody get fucking open?

Sark if you are holding back for Bama how about we turn this shit up a bit.

Narrator: he's not holding back for Bama. The issue is obvious.

[Bodowned 763]

Like, there’s NO way (outside of killing the kid’s confidence, yadda yadda) that Murphy shouldn’t get a look here soon. There’s not a single thing outside of his hair cut that’s changed since we last saw the Ewers experience.

[D3zii 3708]

Loving this defense man!!!!! 

[Rimbo 25989]

The downside of that INT is that now our offense is almost immediately in the red zone.

Yards are nice but connecting more often would be cool

Most of those yards are after the catch.

Arkansas State is on the same level as Whitesboro High School when compared to Rice. 

Context, bro. 

[hobbes2702 13049]

1st down deep ball. Every time

[chainsaw 9872]

fucking knew it. worthy is dumb

[Bottlecap 1523]

do we really have a 90s car alarm sound effect for turnovers? is that a bob cole decision?

[ousux 5599]

Hoping you're right about that, the predicted mudhole looks pretty dry at the moment.

[millhouse 2615]

Damnit

[Whitewater Horn 968]

Hell yeah! 3 more points coming!

[David Dennison 18936]

That is so bad.

[DaysOff 7959]

Just a dumb team

[AUS-97HORN 11809]

sigh 

 

lazy worthy.
