Game 2: Texas vs. Tulsa game thread

[Brothahorn 10087]

Are you fucking kidding me? Can you imagine Saban saying something like this?

Not even Mack was this fucking pathetic.

As a player I would be pissed that my coach just called us a bunch of pussies.

I left the house after Ingram scored the TD. They looked good on that drive, what the fuck happened? I thought I'd go out on my date, have a couple margaritas and come back to a 42-10 Texas win or something. Damn, perhaps I really should start doing other things with my Saturdays...I would have been hand wringing like a mutherfucker tonight TF.

i did not get to pay close attention to team news this past week but how was Gary Johnson eligible to play in the 1st half after being ejected for targeting in the 1st half last week?

since it happened in the first half, he's only out for the rest of that game.  Second half and it rolls over to the next game.

the players cried their asses off when charlie got fired.  not a tear will be shed when herman gets fired.  someone on here said it months ago.  we got charlie part 2 but without the likeability.  

watson got charlie fired. watson dug  hole too big to climb out of.  charlie was also incapable of climbing out of it anyway.

beck and herman's entire coaching staff will get herman fired.  what a fucking shitty fucking staff.

A carry over from last years offense scoring around 27-28 points per game. Looks like this year’s O is good for 28 or 29 points per game.

We will never average more than 28.5 ppg in the Tom Herman Era?

Frustrating ain’t it?

 

[LonghornGoodfella 114]

How the fuck does Ingram average 6.4 yards a carry and only get 10 god damn carries? This dude is legit and has the best wiggle we've seen a RB since J Charles. Give him the damn ball!

[Lhorn 4911]

Well, he got injured late and Watson is good enough to warrant some carries.

 

But yeah, Ingram looks like the real deal.

[LonghornGoodfella 114]

Watson is ok so i'm not going to dog on him but he's not special. He's solid. But yeah he did get hurt but even before the injury, give him the damn ball and let him go to work.

If we lose to Kansas again this whole board will implode

[4Pete 156]

I actually think most of this board will be relieved.  That's the death knell.  Nobody survives Texas losing to KU.

after today I would say it is actually possible. we are dogshit.  4 wins tops.  its crazy that we are here.  CDC needs to get his shit together asap because it will be his call if he doesn't fire this fraud after this year.  This year is on Herman.  next year is on CDC.

I’m getting really close to not planning my Saturdays around Texas football anymore.

[Bevojoe 44]

The only games I’ll be going to are USC and TCU.

I was at the game tonight and have tickets to next week. I can’t drive back in for that performance again  next week

They need to figure out how to attack this “unique” defense because it’s the second week in a row we’ve see a team rush 3 and drop 8 and it’s been pretty effective both games. I’m sure usc, tcu, et al now have a blue print to make our offense impotent 

There isn't a single external influence that would cause the Texas Offense to be as impotent as Tim Beck.

[kopp0e 1135]

Of note, Tulsa plays at Arkansas this year...
And for the record, I will call it now, the Hurricanes win in an upset...

"Our team is made up of a bunch of snowflakes" is not the message to be sending

He was like that at UH, but everybody ignored it, even after he started losing to teams like Navy and SMU. After the Navy loss, he was interviewed on Houston sports radio and basically said "Well, they are an option team, and our starting LBs were out, and our backups kinda blow, so there was no way I could win trotting out that garbage." At the time nobody thought there was a whiff of stank on him, so it was just passed over. (Also because Houston sportsradio is fucking terrible.) I remember being astonished hearing a coach talk about his players that way, and yet the drumbeat for us to hire his ass just kept getting louder and louder, even after he lost to SMU, a program he actually had taunted earlier in the year.

What coach does that? And what coach taunts opposing players, even if they are giant douches like the Mizzu QB? 

I guess more importantly, what coach does that and then fails miserably to back up his shit-talk?

[JFKFC 4878]

Didn't watch the game. Just got home and looked up the score. 

 

I am disappoint.

[jet black 203]

Just taking it slow and easy.  I'd like to remember the game.  

yuge mistake

[phdhorn 6224]

This team plays offense like it has collective elephantitis of the balls. And they play defense like 11 Rain Mans.

But the band still kicks ass!

[Slacks 6819]

I fell asleep in the first quarter and haven't checked the score.

I have a couple of texts that indicate things didn't go well, and it sounds life things didn't go well judging by the last posts here and the Fire thread.

I'm guessing we won close, yes?

[PilotsError 2286]

Is that really the schtick you're going with?

[Fozzz 152]

With the amount of experience in the two deep, I was expecting we could at least dead cat bounce our way to 8-4 this season. This team is just awful though, and looks horribly coached. There’s no reason why our WRs can’t block to save their lives and our QB struggles to execute a handoff. 

[DefinitelyNotHollywoodColt 12301]

Can somebody go back and quote the 2 posters that were giving people shit for saying we looked like hammered dog shit after we went up 21-7?

[EtOH 63]

I feel like I’ve been wearing the same unwashed underwear at the lake, in a tent, in the rain, for 9 years. Thought I swapped em out a couple of times, but no, just reached back for the same grimies. 

[stork642 4498]

CDC needs to start turning the screws on Herman.  Either make Herman get his shit together or make him gtfo.   How can Div 2 schools seem more motivated to play than Texas was last night.  Half the game the entire team looked like a bunch of zombies.

It’s just that I’m incredibly lazy.

if you recall, the pillar of a Tom Herman program, according to him, would be mental and physical toughness. I’d love for him to talk about that, within the context of him being hard on them at halftime and them completely wilting because of it. 

His quote after the game about “having to remember that about these players” (in terms of them not responding to him being hard on them) was shocking. Tom, are you at all aware these players won’t play hard for you?

There is a reason...it's called shitty coaching.

So you’re saying Texas won halftime?

 

You know after the game I ran into a couple from Tulsa who told me that Texas fans were the best fans anywhere!  They had come early for the game and everyone was so friendly and when they couldn’t find the stadium they asked 5 or 6 different fans who all helped point them in the right direction.   They are something like a 12th generation Tulsa family but they said they would love for their kids to go to Texas because everyone there is so great!
