Oklahoma @ Cincinnati - 11am Fox Big Noon GOTW

[ousux 5600]

I'm never going to feel bad about ou getting screwed by the refs, but that's as obvious of a DPI as you'll ever see. Yormark approves of that one.

Preview of what's to come for us, but worse

How the fuck does OU get these hapless bastards this season and we get UT kryptonite BYU

We get BYU on the road as well.

Injuries that require stoppage should require the player to stay out until change of possession 

*or use a timeout 

What if the player gets sent to the hospital? Should the team still be penalized?

[ousux 5600]

That's the one game all season where I'm NOT worried about the officiating.

You should be. We have the best chance of making the CCG and the Rig12 will do what they can to avoid it.

No penalty. The player is ineligible to return until possession changes. In your example that player isn’t returning

He shouldn't be allowed to play from the hospital.

I can’t wait to truck OU’s middle linebacker.

[WhatTheBuck 28793]

Why did he cut that inside? Looked like there was a lot more room to run if he kept it outside.

No we don't, it's at DKR.

[WhatTheBuck 28793]

That wasn’t a hold. 

[Sawbonz 27580]

Lol now a hold

He's a Sooner, guy. He's saying OU gets BYU in Provo.

I’d be surprised if the Big 12 even sent refs

[gmr548 16588]

Feel like OU is about to bust this open. 

It felt like that since Q1 and just kind of never happened. Cincinnati just wasn’t good enough to make anything of it.

In general my impression is that Texas is a better team and will be favored for a reason but OU’s defense will be able to punish them if they come out dropping passes, missing blocking assignments, etc. OU is significantly better than last year on defense.

OU’s offense has some issues. Obviously I didn’t expect them to be the world beater analytics suggest but they’re worse than I thought. Kind of flipped my perception of where Texas’s real advantage is.

How long before NCAA puts the QBs in the "don't hit me" jerseys?

That would be fine but “protecting” them and allowing them to get guys thrown out for targeting by sliding late is bullshit. 

[Billy Pilgrim 1982]

Cincinnati left A LOT of points on the table.

[Sgt Hulk 13811]

I know OU sucks. But is their team actually a threat. They’ve played all dog shit

Because their OC and coach are dumb. 

[ScottS 1069]

If you want to see something disgusting on several levels, watch two Sooner football players chug some canned skyline chili after the Cincy win.

I'm concerned about our offense vs. their defense. I'm also concerned about our pass defense, which really hasn't been tested yet. Yes, our talent level bla bla bla, but our offense has under-performed for 3 games straight. That's not an anomaly any more; it's getting habitual.

You know what?

I'm a goddamn fucking idiot.

Anyone that thinks that the 6 in the score column for Cincinnati was about OU’s defense didn’t watch the game or doesn’t understand foosball. They are dogshit. We are 3 scores better than them. 

[BurgleBro 796]

Watching OU defense yesterday I'm convinced the team is actually designed to defend us.

 

Not unlike Coach Muschamps 2008 defense was designed to stop OUs offense. 

 

OU offense remains dog shit and they'll need trick plays and busted coverage,  along with their usual dose of heavy holding to put up points. 

But I'm not too convinced our offense doesn't have a difficult time.  

Hope we are watching film closely as humanly possible.

Dusty Screwdriver actually called Cincy a tough road test during the Baylor broadcast. They’ll roll Iowa State next week and sneak into the top 10, and talk shit nonstop for a week. And then Texas will beat their doors off. 
 

Venables should write Sankey a thank you card every week for canceling the Georgia game.

Any OU fans on here going to this one?  I've never made it out to Utah, so I got tickets as soon as I could.

I'd like to see Texas run a lot of empty sets to start the game. Get the ball out quick and make them have to think. I get the feeling they're going to bring heat early and often and live with the results. They know that our depth is going to wear them down if they don't create chaos early.
