Great Start Game Thread

[freeper]

Warrick takes it out from in the end zone again....poor field position. Penalty kills some momentum and we are off to another great start....

 

[MidwestLonghorn]

Wow...we haven't been this bad since the McWilliams era...

The team is really fighting for Strong today. Inspiring play thus far.

Announcer - "that was easy" no shit.....it's strongs D

Yea...."they showin some love"

Hello U-Haul? I need to make a reservation....last name is Strong. Yes I have a major credit card....

 

[diadevic]

I look at Strong on the sideline and keep seeing Gerry Faust in his last game...

We all hope (except Ryansublet Strong and a few aggies) strong is gone.

 

[hornfan2006]

Need to be a bit more creative in the red zone.

 

[madcow12]

Our special teams are more like special Ed teams....

I'm not understanding something, what is uptempo about Gilberts offense? Other than going directly to the line of scrimmage, I could grill a steak before a play is called.

Anything that doesn't huddle announcers call up tempo. The only time he really goes fast is after first downs. This isn't chip Kelly every 13 seconds. It doesn't have to be either. All your really trying to do is keep the D from subbing.

 

[freeper]

Well at least it looks like Poona came to play....

I have doubts foreman can make a living running against TCU,Texas will need to throw to beat them.

 

[ryan_sublett]

Offense can now hold fellas. Defense can't but offense it's all good

 

[gordo107]

Is it me, or does Gary Patterson look like he should be selling Dr Pepper in the stands? Dead ringer for the dude on the commercial.

I was being facetious dude.

 

[hornfan2006]

That 4th down play was hot garbage.

 

[hornfan2006]

Any play with Porter on the field has become a "cover your eyes and cringe" situation.

 

[hornfan2006]

Good to see the defense respond after giving up the early TD.

 

[GORME]

Defense looking decent. Good thing because the offense sucks.

 

[Cotton #12]

In Keeping Strong,I see pros and cons in either direction at this time.Question is,What will be the record with him next year? without him and new Coach??

 

[hornfan2006]

Anyone else scratching their heads on 3rd down calls today?

 

[madcow12]

Play calling for a field goal instead of play calling to save your job. Wide right... Nice...

 

[Cotton #12]

Another Damn missed field goal,How many times this year have we seen that??

Unless Texas gets a coach that has coached for at least 10 years and never lost then Texas might as well keep Strong. He is a nice guy. It's all about the young men. It's all about getting better. It's all about just executing.

 

[ryan_sublett]

If Strong does come back he needs to keep calling the defense. If he had been doing it sooner him being fired wouldn't even be on the table.

That is kind of the point. A good coach would have seen it a lot sooner. But whatever.

I don't know why but coaches that come from a defensive background don't like to call the plays. Not sure why that is. A lot of offensive head coaches call the offense.

 

[swVAHorn]

Longhorns playing hard. Play calling is strange on the goal line. Looked like he was in.

 

[ryan_sublett]

That is a BS call. Come on ref.

 

[MidwestLonghorn]

It sure would be nice to have a QB that can pull that and walk in there...

After these last 2 seasons....Big 12 Zebras should be an endangered species in Austin.....

I'll tell ya what. The big 12 will be rooting for OU next week vs ok state. Last thing they want is ok State to win and the central Michigan game keep them from playoff consideration.

 

[swVAHorn]

The Texas offense in short yardage is something that drives me crazy.
