  1. Confused by the interchanging of Brooks and Baker on the last few posts. LG Brooks RT Baker
  2. Yesterday about 15 miles from the DIA we had insane fog. Apparently it was just our few mile radius. Must have moved to the airport this morning.
  3. And that’s totally fair. Utah was a good win. I suppose we’ll see how good. I think going from Morton to Hammond definitely threw their d off and the game became a blowout with Hammond steering the ship. I can appreciate the point you’re trying to make regarding Ohio State, with us being their big win and how do you gauge that. Good job navigating that respectfully. Oregon, I don’t know I agree. I think they’re legit, their win over Penn State was a big win based on eye test at the time, and that Penn State’s collapse after that game doesn’t necessarily take away from the team that showed up that day against Oregon with their crowd insanely jacked. Luckily we’re no longer in BCS times so Tech if they take care of bidness can put some respek on their name come playoff time. Just do us a favor and don’t drop the damn game against BYU so we don’t have to consider a pretender like BYU playoff worthy.
  4. Congrats on the weight loss! I had seen some more recent pics of the svelte Surly Jesus on site.
  5. I saw y’all in the Food Court leading cheers but after that beard trim definitely didn’t think you were imma.
  6. Texas Tech looks great to my eye this year, but what’s hardest to discern is how great. You could make a case for Tech not playing any team as good as a top 5 in conference SEC team or top 3 in conference big 10 team all year. I fully expect them to go 13-0 and then look like a completely different team when their opponent has the same talent level.
  7. You could choose to say he was good, you just choose not to. His passing numbers look better yardage wise if Sark doesn’t call so many poorly timed screens. It seemed we called screens when OU was sitting back often and we lost 5. That happened literally 5 times and that isn’t on Arch for making the throw that was called. Look I get the fucking point you’re trying to drive home. He’s not a Heisman candidate, TODAY. But today he made numerous throws that were winning plays, extending drives, even if we didn’t score as much as we wanted in the first half. I mean that Brooks hold was killer early. We probably go up early without it. - The rope deep at our own 6 that saved us from losing a field position battle at 10-6 on 3rd down. Huge play in the game. You bet your ass Venables thought he had us on that play and Arch just shoved it up his ass. - rolling on his left hitting a 3rd down pass with pressure up 13-6. - his run to end the game, to me proving that it was there for him a lot of the day BUT HE WAS PLAYING BANGED UP. - he went 21-27. He made accurate short throws. He put the ball in receivers hands that allowed them to make plays, enough. Sark didn’t call aggressive plays and Arch played within himself.
  8. Sad day in BO&W house because Texas won and Arch didn’t suck too bad and had no turnovers. Hard times driving a point that Arch is shit.
  9. If we’re being honest with ourselves, and I only had my vantage point of the upper deck corner in the shade, Arch made a handful of plays today that were difference makers, and he didn’t turn the ball over. We didn’t necessarily win today because of Arch, but OU lost today because of Mateer, his turnovers and inaccuracy, and OU’s inability to stop the run. I’m not saying Arch played perfect, but if we have this version of Arch the rest of the season, I like our chances in every game. What I don’t understand is the need for folks to defend their takes of Arch being shit. Dude is 1-0 against OU. He played winning football today. Get off his jock, at least this fucking weekend.
  10. Defense better be ready to eat today
  11. Appreciate the positivity (IDL comments aside) and I choose to believe what you’re putting down because I want to have hope. I would just add that numerous times on tape a UF defender would line up over someone and he would be untouched by that OL. That needs to change and should be a simple fix. Hit the damn guy across from you no matter if your assignment is to protect a different gap than the one that DL is trying to attack. Hit him then slide.
  12. Reality is Mateer’s ability doesn’t scare me relative to good starters at QB OU has had in the past decade. His IT factor though is a force; He is a leader no doubt. I think this is more of an indication of how bad Hawkins sucks, and less about Mateer actually getting close to 100%. Let’s fuck him up.
  13. Mateer is back on the menu
  14. I stand corrected. Or maybe that’s exactly what an Ag would say haha. 09 here. Def not high honors, but maybe ā€œhighā€ honors. Either way glad I have my CS degree from UT. šŸ¤˜šŸ»
  15. Funny, I’ve been thinking you’ve been an Aggy for some time. Joined less than a month ago when we were struggling and site traffic down based on imma’s posts. scramblyn: Scram Blinn
  16. Would not be surprised if they do. Will force us to consistently execute in the short/intermediate and run the ball. I bet they twist and stunt more than bring a ton of blitzes: worked for UF. I wouldn’t be surprised if we played something similar on D given OU’s similar weaknesses. Would like to see us run a lot of trips or bunch this game. Rod B has been saying this for some time, and each film review I watch seems to show the same. We have a high percentage of our explosive plays out of trips/bunch.
  17. I think we have his driving while gold weed leaf penned high to thank for that.
  18. I don’t think he’s starting. OTF saying Brooks at LG.
  19. Ya I had thought he would have been. Big for Saturday. Simon still needs to get the rock.
  20. James Simon better get some damn carries. Guy seems to be decisive and shoot through the hole quick. With our OL, you can’t be dancing in the backfield trying to make a decision.
  21. FD still has the good guys -1.5
  22. It was said that the team had a very physical practice yesterday. I guess we’ll see.
  23. I fucked up gentlemen…. Flying in Saturday morning at 9AM. Miss the HH the night before.
  24. I’m with you. I think many are pointing to our ā€œsoft NFL offseasonā€ where we didn’t really hit in practice too much, because we were planning for all of the CFP games we were gonna play this year. Hard to know which of the big uglies are good if they aren’t battling good on good. As an aside, I went to the same high school and graduated same year as Ian Boyd. I think we had a debate class together senior year. Happy for him that he’s able to make a living writing/providing analysis on Texas football.
  25. I’m not convinced of that just yet. OL to me is holding back the entirety of the offense. WR is not as good as it should be, but Mosley looks plenty serviceable now that we know he exists and Livingstone has been $$$. Moore has been good when he can play and he’s a solid blocker and good route runner. Wingo needs better route running and to attack the damn ball like his DB stole his woman or NIL paycheck or something. I think Wingo with his head on straight and consistent changes the narrative here greatly. TE I think we’re in a pretty good place. Put me in the camp of wanting to see more Nick Townsend, Jordan Washington and Emaree Winston instead of Spencer Shannon. Townsend has shown he’s a man from kick out block #1. Throw the damn ball to Endries. RB, I feel we’re not playing the right guys. Baxter returning from injury 100% was gonna be difficult to count on and should have been glaringly obvious. That said, hard to get a top transfer RB when you have a 1k rusher returning healthy (before camp). Wisner is pretty good, but is much better at OZ which we can’t block. We have what looks to be a tremendous amount of upside in James Simon. If he doesn’t tote the rock 10 times against OU that’s criminal. Gibson, his fumble notwithstanding, has looked good this year and needs to see some carries with Wisner and Baxter on the sidelines. I want to like Christian Clark more, but I just don’t see it. With a shitty OL, I don’t feel you have as much liberty to dance behind the line of scrimmage to find a hole like Clark seems to like to do.
