Just finished the film.

Removing the emotion, this is a simple game to explain.

Texas out gained ou.
Texas out passed ou.
These out time of possession ed ou.
3rd down conversion were equal 5-14
Texas went 3-4 on 4th downs and ou went 0-1

Ou won in only 3 areas.
Rushing.
Ou qb went for 112.
Texas Brooks went for 129.
The collective OU backfield added another 88 yards. Not impressive numbers- but enough.

Penalties-- Texas shot their own toes off. 9 for 70 yards. Unacceptable.
Ou had just 4 for 30.

Turnovers. Texas 2 picks. 1 fumble.
Ou none.

The most devastating of these is the third. In a turnover free game, based on the average yards per play, Texas scores a minimum of 13 more points. Even if you leave the OU points on the board they benefited FROM the turnovers- Texas still wins this game by 2 scores.
Yes, Sark made some sh!tty play calls. Very sh!tty--- but even with those play calls, if Texas doesn't turn the ball over-- based simply on the mathematics of football-- Texas wins the game handily.

It's difficult to win a game against an average team with 3 turn overs. Ou is above average-- this isn't a "normal" game atmosphere.
Bottom line is-- we beat ourselves.

Next time they play each other, we need to just go run heavy. Brooks was getting free and finding holes but we didn’t commit to it enough. I think our staff will study the film and see all the missed opportunities and I’m confident they will be corrected. OU over achieved today thanks to the turnovers. We take care of the ball it’s a win for us.
 
I was impressed with ou. They wanted it more and deserve it. Their defense played aggressive-Texas's defense played not-aggressive. ou's DLine outplayed Texas's OLine.

Texas will avenge this loss when it really matters in the B12 CG. We go into the playoffs at 12-1. Hopefully, OU makes it to the playoffs after we beat them. Both teams in the playoffs at 12-1 and we beat down they asses again in the CFP. That is not unrealistic with the way the CFP committee factors in these rivalries.
 
OU defense only gave up two touchdowns. They played a band don’t break defense and stood up when it mattered most, on third down and in the red zone.

Actually only the first turnover made a difference when OU got a TD. After second interception Ou went nowhere and Texas blocked a punt to tie the game. After Ewers' fumble OU was 3 and out. I think the difference was stopping UT at the 1 four times. Texas has an excellent offense but OU's D played very well despite the yardage given up.

It felt as if we played very milquetoast in the 1st half on offense. Things changed once we opted sling the pigskin more aggressively in the 2nd. The box relaxed which allowed runs to gain traction.
Meh...whatever. 1 more shiner before the wife gets angry humped to make me feel better.

Hopefully, we get some player leadership to step up. I am talking hungry dog leadership. Quinn has gotten much better at the leadership thing, but he's missing a little something.

And don’t forget the dropped INT by Thompson in the end zone. That was big. Plus the miscommunication on the final TD. That was a basic route that we failed to cover because we didn’t communicate . A gift basically.

UT wins this matchup 8 out of 10 times.

Angry humped?

Is that the same as grudge fvck?
 
Man Clob, a lot of what you said was correct. But I could look at it through an OU lens and see things that could have made it a bigger win for OU. Stopping a fake punt, making a FG in the 4th quarter, not shanking a 15 yard punt (however far it was), defending the 4th and 1 toss early in the 1st quarter...there were things OU could have done to play better.

I will state I think OU was dog tired at the end, defensively. Texas was driving pretty much at will. Had this gone into OT, not sure OU would have been able to stop Texas. But they made the stop at the end to force a FG, and that proved to be just enough.

Bottom line, both teams played an outstanding game. Both teams are legit top 5-10 teams. Neither team could say that last year. The season's about 40% done for both teams. I feel pretty confident in saying there's a high probability we'll meet again this year. Maybe we'll get to see if both teams can clean up their deficiencies.. I think the future is pretty bright for both OU and Texas.

Did I hear this right? Herbstreit said that Ohio State accused Venables of stealing their signals in a game the buckeyes lost. I've heard about stealing signals before but how can you do it?

Nah, that's what you do to an ex or soon to be ex.
Wifey calms the anger sharks and helps me remember what's actually important and worth getting worked up over in life.
.....and it ain't what 17-24yr old kids do on a football field.

So, she's my version of goos-frabba. I get worked up and she releases the tension. 😆
 
I 100% believe if we don’t hit the kicker and give them a free first down we win the game.
I will never understand that rule. It’s either roughing or it’s not. The kicker is a GD football player too. You’re telling me grazing the child’s foot as you’re trying to avoid him really justifies a 5-yard penalty???

That sh!t 100% created points.
 
Lebby's fried twinkie offense exposed PK. The Texas defense was hot garbage against the tempo veer and shoot. PK had no answers. The secondary sucked and the LB's sucked. It didn't help that not one holding was called on the f ou all game. It was easily seen from my couch.

Another troubling thought. How did this coaching staff think that Baxter should have been the starter? The dude is a China doll. He's nowhere near the RB Brooks is much less Bijan or Roschon, yes, we should give him time but he's not ready.

Don’t forget the TD pass the OU rb didn’t make on the 2yd line, he would have moonwalked in untouched, or the for sure pick your db dropped in the endzone, don’t remember if that led to OU points or bot, regardless it was a missed opportunity for Texas

Why I use this board. So I don’t complain to her because honestly, she doesn’t give a rip 😂

Hopefully, it'll be a different game if both Texas and ou make it to the b12 championship. I think this Longhorn team bounces back. The bye week will help.
I also was impressed with ou's Gabriel. Not just his playing, but also his character. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he had good things to say and respect for the Horns, hugged alot of family after the game and didn't do the Horns down, like alot of his teammates did, during the post-game team photo. Better class than Murray and Mayfield. 🤘

as a coach... no comment. but if they're dumb enough to not get out of the wide angle... football darwinism

A) deleted teh game, simply cannot watch again.

B) OU did have a turnover, punt block for a TD

C) Doesn't matter who does the rushing, they out rushed us.

D) And most important, they won both LOS. . . .that was the difference in the game.

E) Stat you missed (proof of D) 5 sacks by OU 1 by TEXAS.

F) Fumble turned out to be meaningless. D force 3 and out, O drove and kicked FG

I've heard lots of stories about stealing signals. I know Barry Switzer, and other coaches doing it. Does anyone reading this knows how can you do it
 
As I mentioned before this game our red zone opportunities suck ! They were 6of 6 . We are 104th in the country with an offensive genius ! Why not put Malik in and run the wild cat or something besides up the middle ?
Good idea on using Malik. If not him, maybe Red. Malik is big and can run. Red is slippery and can run/pass. I bet we see a new package like that.

Malik isn’t mobile, but he is a load. Quinn is more mobile or the same as Malik, I believe

Read body language of the guys giving signals. Read eyes/helmets of players looking back to the sideline and then when you identify the signaler most of the time hand gestures mean something unique.

I’d pick signals all the time. If the O is quick to snap it is irrelevant if you know signs. Not enough time to relay anyway.

Only a stupid Oc and staff would get signs picked and run O slow enough for it to matter

It’s easier and probably more beneficial to steal D coverages.

Doooooo blocked punts count on the stat sheet as turnovers?
I don't think they do.
 
Brooks did gain 129 yards so he did his part. He also carried the ball 22 times so it's not like he was ignored. But we need somebody to spell Brooks. Now whoever that is we need find him.
