Man I know Mayfield has been around for 5 or six years but how the hell did ou get Gronk on the field for this game. I'm telling you I heard the TEXAS secondary yelling "NUMBER 81 IS A TE SO HE IS INELIGIBLE TO CATCH THE BALL" no not really but it sure seemed that way when he was wide open in the middle of the field.
Positives to take from this game

He didn't break this tackle
Hey those cops obviously didn't play football at Texas.
Best player in the country...... plays in happy valley. His start stop, strength, speed, size, balance, vertical, hands, mind, flexibility etc etc will kill it at the combine. He will test off the charts. And we all know that the NFL loves them some statistical analysis.
I don't know what our defense needs to do against OSU. I mean what should we do to slow down Washington and Ateman (sic?). I don't think Mason Rudolph is the kind of scrambler that Mayfield is. You know until he froze on that game winning pass Brandon Jones was playing great. I mentioned how well I thought our defense played In the second half.In short if our defense takes our level of play to take next step from that second half I think we have a chance.
I don't know what to expect from our run game. If Sam continues to raise his game what will that do for the run game? What can we do with our receiving? Can we hit a home run say 50÷ td 's. We havent had much of that so far.
Or will go with ball control? That's what TCU did against OSU last month.
I agree let's get back to talking about our team not Baker da** Mayfield. Want to keep talking about him please go to sooner scoop not here. Remember this is a longhorn board.
I agree but I also think this is his style of ball. He's aggressive and we're going to have to get use to it.
4th and 8 is stupid especially considering the kicker has made a kick in that range. He has been decent.... 4th and 8 is really silly.
CW3 is a TE, Sam is a badass, the OL depth is fubar, the play calling is beyond confusing, they seem to be playing guys to keep them happy, Wheeler struggled/big time, secondary torched by wide open receivers on multiple occasion including game winner... Lots of work to do and I honestly think OSU is a better team. Ooops, play them on Saturday at 11 am.
Our 4th down conversion rate has been god awful, but our kicker hasn't been decent by any stretch of the word.
Is that decent? Look at his misses. I guess it's great we haven't had any XPs blocked this year, but his FG is far from decent. I don't think it being a coin flip should be considered decent. Granted our 4th down conversion rate is much worse.
Got it I thought you were debating he was decent. I don't have much of a problem with a 4th in short go for it, but 4th in 8 is really pushing it. But then again people need to quit thinking of that as leaving points on the field because 3 pts is far from automatic.
I don't know if Baker is the best player in the country in college but he's def in the conversation. The thing for me is that he's not a big guy but he still has a cannon. Everytime he launches a long pass my jaw drops because of the velocity on the ball. It's really amazing.
Most guys that have been in college for 10 years can zing the ball pretty good
Still a lot to play for. Upset Ok state which if the USC/OU games are any indication isn’t out of the realm of possibility they hav3 a shot of playing in the conference title game. The conference is pretty deep. Think there may be a few more upsets along the way.
