You didn't hear? Brando said this is the Big 12's most intriguing rivalry since aggy left. 

Well, we did start scheduling Tech in the spot typically reserved for aggy for a few years after aggy ran off

They didn’t have a timeout and I don’t think they trusted Duffey to not turn it over. 


All he had to do is throw it way out of bounds. Clock stops when it lands. Run 5 or so seconds off.

Defense, keep swarming to the ball. They are gonna make catches in space by virtue of running 5 receivers every play. Just make sure you make the tackles.
Offense, keep controlling the ball. Too many third downs, too many sacks taken, but I'm loving the LJH show.

Nice first half. Slow start again, but it's been all Texas since the interception.

After his fiasco in the first quarter in the red zone I think I would err on the side of caution with Duffey.

I always respected Kliff’s toughness as a player. That shit at the end of the half was horseshit. Take a shot or maybe 2 at the endzone, then kick. The QB sneak on 4th and short was idiotic as well. Done with Coach Bro.

 

First time I’ve ever said that   I hope he’s gone after this season

Everything about fox’s production sucks ass. Halftime crew is terrible as well. 

Did you know this game reminds Brando of last year's game? No? We'll discuss that right after this break

It’s OK. I don’t want Major Applewhite as our HC.

Do you trust Duffey to take a shot though?

Can’t believe I am saying this but can Robert Smith be the announcer in the second half? 

I'd settle for Mel Tillis. Or Lee Corso. Or Kirk Douglas. Or Anne Ramsey.

Helen Keller would see more

I’d settle for Stephen Hawkins PC right about now.

What would you have suggested we did? Have Sam kneel until there's ten seconds left and then hope we score the touchdown play? 
No, idiot. You score when it's there, every time, and then you make the stop. If you don't make the stop, that's your defense fucking up. That has nothing to do with keeping the ball on offense.

Dumb ass. I would have snapped the ball with sub 5 seconds on the play clock instead of fucking 15. Do you think we could have benefited from burning an extra 30 seconds??

His QB caused a 14 point swing. He ain’t going to let that happen again if he can help it. The best pass Duffy threw was to get them in field goal range on the last series. Klingon is trying to get his kids head right.

I'd be more mad at him going for it on your own 30. Dumb dumb dumb dumb

You have to, for the rest of the team. 

You gotta run the offense, regardless. Let him rot if he fucks up the play.  Playing it safe is playing to lose. That’s towards cKK. Not Duffy.

Letting the defense know that the snap is always coming in the last 5 seconds is how you get back to back sacks.

Bingo

Not really, it was the quick snap that caught their D when they weren't lined up. Nothing is guaranteed. You can't say we would have scored with 100% certainty if we ran the clock down. Remember the oline played like poo for much of the first half.

Our defense got some of their nuts back. We need to open the half with time consuming drive and a score.

Yeah.... disappointing the Defense didn't stop Tech from scoring the FG on that last drive.  Time for TEXAS Offense to kick ass in 2nd Half by getting up by 14+ points and never have Tech get any closer.....

GO HORNS 🤘

Hope the Horns come out with a fire rather than play down to their comp. Get a score and see what the D brings. Defense is finally fighting back rather than flailing.

It’s not bad coaching to call plays with game and personnel context in mind. I would have kicked the field goal there as well. 

What is curious is the inconsistency. Going for it on your own 34 with the young, backup QB was a horrible decision. That’s the kind of thing you try if you have Vince Young as a redshirt senior.

Kliff is 100% gone if Tech loses this game.  He should have been gone last year, but our dumbass bigdicks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY overvalued the win over Texas then too.
