If we use the clock at the end of the first half this game was over.

if our defense was any good this game would have been over.

Thank goodness for Sam and L Jordan Humphrey who is better than every receiver on the Dallas Cowboys roster.

The end.

Yeah, I thought not running down the clock at the end of the first half and the resulting TT field goal would sink us.  Not Mensa-like game management by Herman.  Pretty sure we had all 3 timeouts, so it wasn't like we were going to run out of clock had we taken our time.

I’m really scared this game will be the one that makes lil go pro early. 

 

Oh oh well it was bound to happen

Repped. That's an asshole thing to say. I wouldn't even ask a sooner about their deceased parents. That's beyond fucked up.

[mdmost 43141]

Because it's badass.

Switched over to LHN, what is this about?

We won. STFU

Yup.

[GabrielsHorn 2207]

A win on the road is good. Moving our floor up to 8 wins is good. However, this still leaves such a bad taste in the mouth.

The defense is beyond bad. People will point to needing to recruit dominant DL, but this is much more structural than talent. Orlando's insistence on solely rushing 3 and dropping 8 has hurt us so much as the DL is nowhere near good enough and the back 7 can't cover that well. He was known to draw up exotic blitzes, but those are seldom seen nowadays. I have no faith that he will do anything to change this as he's been extremely stubborn in his play calls these past three games.

If PJ Locke just pulls his head out of his ass and puts up both hands as you are taught to do when on the hands team and recovers the kick Texas wins by 17 going away

Dude was never coming back. Both he and CJ are going to declare for the draft.

You suck so bad that I had to rep and support mdmost. Think about how bad you suck for that to happen

Yeah.  Just cracked one.  

[SquishMitten 10453]

That wouldn’t have been ballsy, it would have been full retard

How so? Up by a point with a few seconds vs a bit longer? Doesn’t matter now anyway

Rushing 3 against an open spread (consistently) against a team whose QB has legs is going to cost you a lot of stops.

I bet he’d be one of the best rookie WRs in the league too. He’s from Southlake and may like the college life too much so we have a chance.

[Wishbone 4819]

Quoted wrong post, dammit. But anyway.

[Wishbone 4819]

Ok, I’m drunk. But a satiated one this week.

[MillerEP 30544]

Lhn press conference, and Herman doing the normal bs, said he’s proud of the defense again

[XYZ 2154]

Freaking loser Tech fans, bunch of them had already vacated the stadium by the end of the 3rd quarter.

True

What’s this stuff on twitter about CDC being ejected?

[MillerEP 30544]

False alarm. He just happened to have talked to the line judge right before heading across the field on his own. People thought the judge made him.

[Colonel Mustard 325]

Gave up 24 points in the 4th.. What a joke.. Starting to be a trend too. Not good Todd... Fucking fix it

[Goodman 3274]

Tom asked about the defense right away in the PC and he gives a Mack Brown answer.

[SA-KC_Horn 1295]

Winning is so hard. Haven't y'all learned that. 

[MillerEP 30544]

Herman thinks Ingram, Locke, and sterns’ injuries would keep them out for any extended amount of time

[XYZ 2154]

Here’s a pattern: when we win the turnover battle, we win; when we don’t, we lose. The end.

[XYZ 2154]

The Sterns hit on the head looked bad.

[kopp0e 1135]

 

[Richter 2284]

I’ve never seen a team so reliably play to the level of the competition.

He was concussed so yes. 

[Tom Chairman 264]

Herman just claimed GDGD as his mentor...

[mdmost 43141]

Well he was a grad assistant under him. 

[Tom Chairman 264]

I’ve never seen a team so reliably play to the level of the competition.

And when they don't, they sure do compensate in the fourth quarter

[Auto Driller 2506]

What happened to D. Davis? Re-injured his shoulder?

[Lhorn 4984]

Great game by Heard.

Looking back, gdgd wasn’t that bad all things considered.

it is when you suck up front on both sides of the ball

[Lhorn 4984]

For all the hand wringing about the defense, the offense which has been our Achilles for years has become one that can win shootouts. He nice if they can put it together on both sides of the ball.

Yay we can barely beat a second string bad QB.

GDGD was the gift that kept on giving. To this day, Buechele and Ehlinger dont redshirt because he under-recruited the position. Dpnt get me started on the offensive line. Stunted the offense for years.

2010 and his Iowa stint should have put all this bullshit to rest.

[Tom Chairman 264]

If I won the mega ball I'd outbid T Boone paying off the refs and Texas would get all the calls.

[Whatever 700]

I've considered all things and came to the conclusion that GDGD sucked shit through a straw.

[AnTiM 1675]

Of this I am certain:  Either the people who rank recruiting classes are just as stupid as I am, or the coaching staff does not know any more about football than I do.

If hill, jefferson, williams, elliott, and bonney stay, we would be a top 4 team and undefeated
