Okay, I’ll go. Not a doctor but just experienced first hand some trauma for someone right in the same body region.

My middle son just broke his forearm at the wrist in the most Tim Krumrie/Joe Theisman fashion possible. Nothing but skin and tendon holding his hand to his body. 11 Y0 in warmups for his first tackle football game ever. Gruesome shit they wouldn’t replay on a telecast.

Took the ER room with 4 people to make 4 attempts before successfully resetting it, per an ER doc. We weren’t in there while they did it. That was on a Friday night. The recommended orthopedist saw us on Monday morning, he had surgery with a pin placement on Tuesday, and they put him in a hard cast 8 days later. That was last Wednesday. If everything is okay, he gets the cast removed in 3 more weeks and then has 2-4 weeks of rehab and can go back to baseball and basketball if he’s pain free. 

Anyone saying Mateer will be back in 3-4 weeks is completely full of shit. Bet the over. 

Damn that stinks prayers for a speedy recovery for the little guy. Amazing what modern medicine can do. 

Mateer did get hurt passing but the way he runs I was thinking he would get a serious rib or head injury he runs strait up and doesn't protect himself at all.

In the last few weeks, OU fans and much of the sports world had become delusional about OU. 

I actually heard an OU fan say this is their best team in 15 years and that the only reason they haven’t been great every year was because of QB issues. GTFO with that lunacy. 

Mateer was the Vegas Heisman favorite? GTFO of here. Absolutely ridiculous. 

Besides Clemson, who’s already crashed, OU was the most overhyped program in the country. And it’s not just bad luck that Mateer is hurt. As many have already said, the entire offense and how it worked was destined to injure him. We should know. We saw Tom Herman use the QB as a battering ram at OSU and Texas. 

Haven't you heard? OU is in the SEC SEC SEC now so of course they going to get some hype. 

It sucks a Texas player didn't end his season but maybe this is actually better because I fucking HATE when blowU suddenly has a magical backup QB beat our ass somehow. That shit just kept happening and now we are hopefully prepared for whatever cheatin' ass shit they are going to try to pull with the backup or the 3rd stringer or wildcat.

Both of you are right, but @BurgleBro said 2 SEC losses, which would be 3 total.

Good for them, but I'd probably hold him out and hope they can beat uSC without him. After that is their gauntlet of Tenn/Bama/LSU/Ole miss.  They weren't going undefeated with Mateer, but assuming a loss to Texas, they still are dropping one of those, if not 2, even withe Mateer.

I still remember Mobilehoma pulling the surprise-unknown-ringer-QB Jason White out of their ASS--- and beating us.

Has anyone checked to make sure there aren't any Jason White clones hiding on their roster as a squad-player/etc.?

Fuck me dead if that shit happens again!

FUCK MOBILEHOMA AND THEIR GOONER FANS!

This isn't a Bull defense or a Mack team.  Scared shitless of the Goiter and his tricks.  

At least I hope not.

With Mateer I think they're comfortably better than Clemson (not that that's a high fucking bar) but I agree. Auburn will be lucky to win 7 games. Michigan is fine but as of now they are probably the 5th or 6th best team in the B10. Those were both home games. Texas has what, 15 wins of that caliber or better the past 2 seasons? Those aren't statement wins past the statement "hey OU doesn't look like a trainwreck this season and their QB is pretty good".

I would have liked to play them with Mateer but I would also have liked Jonathan Brooks to not tear his ACL in 2023 and Colt to not fuck up his shoulder in the national title game. Shit happens.

We're going to find a lot out about the top 10 the next few weeks.

This is how to hold a grudge.

My name is Jordan Belfort. I'm a former member of the middle class raised by two accountants in a tiny apartment in Bayside, Queens. The year I turned 26, as the head of my own brokerage firm, I made $49 million, which really pissed me off because it was three shy of a million a week

Dr. Shin is doing the surgery today. I feel like this is in good hands.


Funny, when I refer a patient for shin surgery, I always recommend Dr. Hand.

That's a universe away from losing 1 game on a circus desperation pass to a Top 5 team on the road and getting passed over by another one loss team that you beat by 10 points because that team "had the better loss"

I'm still angry too.  Coming into that RRS, the *consensus* was "OU is playing better than anyone!"... and we kicked their ass on a neutral field, scoring TD after TD in the second half while they were punting, fake punting, and flop punting.  We were clearly the tougher, better team, and we proved it, winning by two scores and leaving no doubt.  That was one of the most satisfying wins in UT history.  

Then a few weeks later, we lost on the road to a top-5 team... on the last snap from scrimmage.  Which put us in a 3-way tie, in a round robin where we were the only team not to get a home game, and OU was the only team not to play a road game.  

And at the end of the year:  "OU is playing better than anyone!" while Briles, Stoops, and their entire coaching trees were voting UT #5 in the coaching poll (which was part of the formula at the time).  

Such bullshit.  

Did I already say that I'm still angry?

Only thing to do now is whip that ass to the tune of 52-0 so the media will say mateer wouldn’t have made a difference.

I've told this repeatedly, and I'll tell it again any fucking time it comes up, but a group of us were at a BW3 when this game was happening in Midtown Houston, and there was a table of stupid fucking longhorn fans cheering for OU, hard, in this game. I guess they thought our Tech loss was being avenged. We mocked and berated them so badly they fucking left their table, and I think the restaurant. Imagine cheering for OU, ever.

Didn't Leach rank OU several spots above us, giving them the fraction of a point they needed to play in the B12CG? I've never understood the love affair with him on Texas message boards.

I thought it was Art Briles who lowballed Texas in the voting.  

In all fairness, I can see Leach ranking OU ahead of Texas, because his Tech team beat Texas, and got throttled by OU.  If he tanked Texas, that's another thing.

Leach and Briles both ranked us 5th:

The Longhorns' lowest votes were fifth, given by four coaches -- Briles, Leach, Rutgers' Greg Schiano and Michigan State's Mark Dantonio.

Leach made up for it many other ways, including his constant trolling and domination of aggy.

That was fun. I'd rather have another national championship though.

Tech was undefeated and would have been the South Division champs if they beat OU  leaving us on the outside looking in.  We needed Tech to win to force the three way tie. One of the only times in my life I rooted for OU.

If we are ever in a position where I have to root for OU to win anything, I'll go ahead and say "my team should've been a little better.  Oh well, there's always next year" and then I will hope that OU is involved in an asteroid strike. Failing that, I'll root for them to lose in a humiliating fashion.  Fuck them.

We needed OU to win a close, hard fought game. The fact that Tech laid down and let OU smash their head into the headboard was disgraceful and cost us dearly.

It wasn’t hard to know what was coming. We’d seen it plenty. Rooting for OU only made you end up feeling like an idiot, or should have.  You sound like one of the guys trying to reason with us that day at BW3. Just wrong and confused and rationalizing anyway. Wrong wrong wrong.  

Never cheer for OU, ever. If OU is playing the Taliban, I’m wearing a turban or whatever the fuck garb they’ve got going. If Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao and Mussolini have been summoned by Satan on the opposing sidelines to lead the charge against the sooners, I’m face painted with a pentagram and swearing allegiance to the Prince of Darkness.

Never cheer for OU.
