Sam is an idiot. So many chances to throw the ball away yet he takes a sack. Refs not calling obvious PIs or PFs, either.
Great downfield blocking on that last TD. The Longhorns are stepping up today. Have to give them credit.
There is probably no way UT beats OU. If they do the recruiting will certainly continue and even improve. Perhaps UT is ready to try and take over Alabama, when both of the programs went in different directions after their National Championship game.
There's nothing special about OU this season. Don't know if we win or not, but us beating them wouldn't be some huge shock. Team has looked so much better over the last 7 quarters. Night and day from the first 2 games. Gotta sustain it, because we've heard this "Texas is back" BS a few times in recent years.
Two great wins back-to-back. Credit to our defense for turning it around. I think DBU may be back. Our D-line struggles to create pressure. Option-heavy teams like Maryland still confuse our run defense. The WRs are also a bright spot, they've been making stellar plays when given the chance. O-line is getting better with experience. Ehlinger needs to stick to managing instead of making plays and should know when to give up on the play.
Great atmosphere today in DKR! The crowd was rumbling before the go-ahead TD in the third quarter; the offense was failing to take advantage off all the opportunities that the defense was giving them. I don’t think the win should obscure how baffling some of the offensive play calling throughout the game. If we can exorcise some Purple Wizard demons in Manhattan next week we will have one hell of an OU weekend on our hands.
This was my first game of the season and I really like the changes that Del Conte has made to the game day atmosphere. Bevo Boulevard is a cool area, the concerts on the LBJ lawn are fun and the in-stadium atmosphere is so much better than years past. The students and band being on the side line, instead of an end zone, brings a lot of energy to the stands that we’ve been missing. Best of all, the absence of any commercials on Godzillatron is fantastic.
