  1. I'm keeping the carcass from my family's thanksgiving, and making a turkey of my own when I get back into town. The first friends gettogether after Thanksgiving always means gumbo.
  2. For the mention above of making steak sandwiches, I found that mixing leftover jus into mayo makes a hell of a spread on one.
  3. Wait, is Bozo in play? This is the first I'm hearing of this, and that could be B.A.D. for the rest of the SEC if that deal gets done...

    9-1

    https://bball.notnothing.net/big12.php?sport=fb This lets you calculate what should happen based on game results, and weirdly enough, if Cincinnati beats Kansas the last week of the season, then it ends up being OU/Texas due to the difference in the Iowa State and Kansas results.
  5. I feel the same about OU's year. Team is much improved over last year in some really key areas, got to beat Texas in a wild one. Sucks to lose to OSU and hope that things shake out to play in the BigXII game somehow, but I can't be mad after last year's shitshow.
  6. When I tore mine, I had help but walked off. This was indoor soccer, and none of us idiots knew what to do, so I just iced it and drove myself home after the game.
  7. The similarities between OU post-Texas and OSU post-Oklahoma are currently upsetting me.
  8. Oh I fully agree in dishes where it's providing a specific note that the thing needs. I've got a bottle I use, I just don't make those at home enough.
  9. They always say "you'll never taste it"...have they tasted fish sauce? Even a little bit is intense.
  10. I think it comes down to quality of assistants in most cases. His best recruiter by far was always Cale Gundy, and that gift predated him by two decades. Bedenbaugh is an excellent coach and evaluator, but is not a headhunter on the recruiting trail. I also wonder if Riley's skills as a coordinator make it hard for him to identify and teach those things to other coaches on staff. It goes back to why transcendent athletes are often poor coaches. It's impossible for a Wayne Gretzky to teach someone to play like he played, and he has no idea how to maximize the talent or adjust around the skills of those around him outside of being a player himself. Extend that one level higher to transcendent coaches. Imagine Lincoln giving advice to a young DBs coach or DC like "Just perfectly remember what worked best in this situation the last twenty plays and call a perfectly disguised coverage to bait the offense into going to your strength." Great, but what if that coach doesn't have the eidetic memory and intuition about tendencies that Riley has for the offense?? Now Riley's lost the teachers, the evaluators, the planners, and the trainers that all build upon each other's work to make a complete team. He's relying on himself and another generational talent to make up for it all, and if QB1 isn't absolutely note perfect every snap, then Saturday happens.
  11. Story goes they put Everclear in the sangria part of the swirl, so a couple of those are a problem.
  12. This is 100% true. How often does a team score forty in the first half, doubling up the other team, and it feels like a close game?
  13. If my kid were coughing up blood because of a football-related injury, I'd have a hard time wanting to see them out there getting hit again the same way a week later. It wasn't even a weird, non-contact or odd circumstance, just getting drilled in the chest on a tackle.
  14. I'm here because the majority of OU fans online are painfully unfunny and have no sense of self-deprecation about how ridiculous college football is, whether it's going well or poorly. Plus, getting someone else's point of view of what's happening in the program is always entertaining, and sometimes enlightening.
  15. Drumm and Thune have pretty much signed this one over to ATM. Drumm said he got some info from someone at ATM indicating they internally felt like they were catching up to OU, but stopped juuuuust short of saying it's all Aggy at this point.
  16. More on Kanak... Apparently it was a pulmonary contusion, lung bleed that he tried to play through until he was coughing up blood and unable to catch his breath. Talks about it on his podcast:
  17. Any OU fans on here going to this one? I've never made it out to Utah, so I got tickets as soon as I could.
  18. There just aren't many programs that consistently land that level of talent in any reliable way. I saw a report that the only 5-star DL signed last cycle outside of the SEC were Woods at Clemson and Adebawore at OU. That's it for everyone not named Bama, Georgia, and LSU.
  19. I think his quote has been getting bumped by as many schools as he can make work.
  20. That's a really good idea. The time it takes to get the potatoes done can ruin other parts of a dish. I struggle with getting it all timed out correctly, and I'm absolutely trying this the next time I do a recipe like this.
  21. I don't know if this guy delivers bags or is the team masseur, but he needs to have someone yank his leash when OU loses recruits.
