He's just reversing his Dad's college career, who started out as a Sooner and ended it wearing orange.

Shit man, I used to study film 12 hours a day pretty much every day. Then one time my wife walked in and we had to go to fucking marriage counseling…

I’m beginning to think teams are figuring him out. 
 

…and Sark. 

He's been figured out. He forces balls into windows he couldn't possibly hope to hit when there are more high percentage options available.

He's also lost his ability to be decisive. Maybe he never read defenses well, but he isn't adjusting to what the defense is showing him at all.

On that 4th down Brewer is just standing there wide open and Casey mast makes bad decision after bad decision.  

That's a school yard play, Brewer was covered until Casey threatened the run, he could have flipped it to him but he didn't

The shine as worn off fast. He's a front runner. When every single thing goes right, he looks good. When the other team adjusts and makes him make decisions and not having wide open WRS running around, he falls off a cliff. It was a fun few game stretch but the last 2 weeks has shown he is not the answer long term. 

Another year of having below average QBs.

Shitty 6 quarters for Casey. Seemed like he’s hurt and Sark is too much of a pussy to put Card back in.

Coaches have huge egos. Putting Card back in shows he was wrong and should have stuck with Card the whole time. The same as his ego was too big to put in Casey against Arkansas when Card looked like shit. Playing QB roulette is a shitty position to be in. Means we have no one worth a damn. Season is already lost now so does not matter who goes under center.

I'd have to say playing oline roulette is about the worst thing I've ever seen watching football

Wtf is this logic? He switched Card out after choosing him the first time, putting Card back in just shows wishy-washiness. It's not like he's gonna go out there and magically make the blocking better. He's also a worse athlete than Casey.

Card should have been pulled waaaaay before he did. He was so gun shy about doing it because Card was chosen the starter in the offseason. And pulling him that early shows he made the wrong decision off the bat. And now going back to Card shows how we don't have a QB worth a damn and he has no idea what to do. It's pretty simple logic.

he's terrible at making anything happen off schedule, just terrible

    The slant attempt between two defenders when guys were open by alignment on the other side was a bad read by him. Dropping and fumbling snaps. Throwing obviously bad INTs. Not being able to just take the easy throws. He has been rough the last couple weeks. When the defense starts loading up against the run we have to be able to throw ourselves out of it and he hasn't the last couple weeks. Sark called a good enough game to win this, but we had a bad game from the QB spot and the defense can't bow its back and get stops when they need it most. Tough combo to watch.

Card was always the right decision, replacing him after a buzzsaw game was an easy, lazy choice.  Harping about stats, qb efficiency blah blah blah stfu. Lake Travis, Southlake, and Westlake QBs are built different. Neg away

Half of your post is on the right track then the stupid shit ruins it.

I like Casey but it’s not working. Let Rojo start if Sark is scared that Hudson will get broken in half. Rojo was an electric HS QB who came here to play QB. He got moved to RB and played great without acting like a bitch about the position change.

Let’s just fucking try something new and change things up. We don’t have much to lose at this point anymore so let’s just blow it up and see what sticks.

After the second INT- had a buddy ask me if I’d rather have Calzada over Thompson. Jesus- the fact that I had to pause before answering makes me sick.

Look how the two programs have diverged in the last two weeks. Fucking sucks

The competition is getting tape on him, and Bjian, and the spit and duct tape that allow our OL to hold together enough for either to make plays. 

He was playing over his head for a while there and he's a rookie even if he is old. 

He was bound to plummet to earth at some point. 

God King Ehlinger had some shittastic games too.

A good kid who I respect for sticking it out and waiting his turn (even if he a foot out the door a couple of times) would be really good for a mid-tier team like a non-Cincinnati AAC team but he ain't good enough for a program that wants to win big at the Power 5 level. We don't have one on campus right now who IS good enough to win big at the Power 5 level so it is what it is.

It doesn't make a shit who starts they both suck. Casey recklessly turns the ball over and Card holds onto the ball and refuses to push the ball down field. It's like being given the choice of slamming your dick in the door or dragging your dick through broken glass either which way it's a lose/lose situation.
