  1. I mean the book is out on how to be successful against the Texas D. The only way to mitigate that is for the front 4 to get pressure and they have all but disappeared. Really thought we had one with Burke but I guess not. Need Simmons to come in and be that guy. I agree that Barron and Gilbeau should have been cross trained at S. Everyone not name Derek Williams is a liability out there.

    I disassociated myself from the Dallas Cowboys a few years ago when it became clear that Jerry Jones couldn’t manage a franchise effectively to win. 

    This game imo is a pivotal moment for the program. I think it’s showing that Sark isn’t the guy, and we may be headed for a dark dark period. 

    This is dumb. Even if we lost today this team would be 6-2 with a win on the road against a top 10 team. Sark may not ultimately be the guy that gets us over the top but he isn’t leading us into any kind of dark period. Get a fucking grip.

    Brooks is a great college running back who isn’t elite in any single category. He’s not gonna get drafted before day 3. He may decide he wants a shot at making a roster and leaves early.  It I would bet he comes back next year. 

    AD is showing up on more 1st round mock drafts than X now. Both will be drafted in the first two rounds and maybe even both in the 1st. They’re gone after this year. 

    The thing is he isn't going to become anymore elite at anything if he stays. If he continues his big year this could be his best shot. He should take it.

  4. Need Watts back asap. Not sure which 9.95(likely IT) it was that was hyping Holmes up as threatening to take one of the CB1 spots during fall camp, but dude ain't it. He is alright in coverage but not good at tackling.

    Read ctj’s post above. Other than winning, this is exactly what they wanted. 

    I don't think you should take that as gospel, it wasn't a very exciting game and the score would have been much worse if Bama didn't continually shoot themselves in the foot. Plus I think they lose again next week.

  6. I had no doubt we were going to get a 1st down on 3rd and 9 if Sark put the game in Ewers hands as he should have. The OU secondary was reeling and could no longer cover anybody. Even if they drop 8 Ewers could have likely scrambled and picked up the same amount of yards Brooks did. I understand the defense had played well in the 2nd half up to that point, but the preference should have been for OU to not touch the ball again.

  7. As aggressive as he normally is no idea why he puckered his asshole here. We were rolling in the passing game, they had lost a numbers of players in their secondary, no reason to not challenge them there.

    Has Wisner already burned his redshirt? If he hasn’t, he’s headed that way. I didn’t get the take after his lost his job at DeSoto, but good evaluation as a ST specialist. 

    Didn’t lose his job, played a different role and he was a big reason they won state that year.
