It took five games and a loss for the media to realize (or at least finally start calling for) what we as fans knew weeks ago, it’s time to stop playing to win instead of ‘not to lose’ and take the harness off Trevor Knight. (TW)

One of those ‘wow’ stats.
TCU-Baylor will be the @BUFootball's first top-10 matchup since losing to Bama in the '81 Cotton Bowl. First regular-season one since 1956!

This is some seriously high praise. Keep your fingers crossed people.
Random thought: if TaShawn Thomas gets a waiver to play immediately, Oklahoma will have one of the best starting fives in America. Talented.

That’s great to hear about Kendall Thompson. Happy for him and glad he saw some success on the field. Hope he wins the starting job the rest of the way for the Utes.
This. Always good to hear former Sooners doing well
Actually tuned into that game and became more depressed. He looked great. Could’ve had a better night if not for a few drops. He took some licks too and got right back up.
Oh what could’ve been….
Congrats Kendal!
UT Delenda Est.
So I’m confused. Is that movie a complete ripoff or remake of Memento?
I know AD is kind of Taboo right now, but he made some great runs in the RRSO as well. Would have thought he might have one of the top 10.
His very first carry in the RRSO was legendary. Let the ‘Horns know they were playing against a superstar right off the bat. I thought that play should’ve been amongst the Top 10 too.
He’s not taboo to you and I , but unfortunately he has to be to OU right now. OU has to be PC right now with everything related to him. I wish it was not that way, but it is. That’s why I think no AD in the top 10 RRSO best
AD is not taboo. There’s a war on manhood in this country and he’s simply it’s latest victim.
I will never ever ever never get tired of the Millard romp were he jumped the Texass defenders and the other just bounced off of him. I hollered so loud on that play that dogs outside went nuts and my wife came running into the room thinking I was fighting an intruder. The high of the high of sooner fandom. Perine …… Do it again pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaasssseeeee!
Ah, yes! The ‘Jump/Truck’.
A moment that pretty much says it all about OU’s relationship with the drooling bevo’s.
You rang??
Better, no?

Yes! Better! Thank you!
But I also love #17 in the still shot.. Looks like a bomb went off and Millard is only one to make it out!
It’s time for everyone to move on from TCU. This team has everything to play for and, as disappointed as I was to lose, maybe they learned something that will be of benefit going forward. Strong people are bettered by adversity, the weak allow it to tear them down.
As for Trevor, the kid is a high character, hard working guy. If you think he has reached his ceiling then you are sadly mistaken. He will keep improving, and this team will as well.
I am finally getting excited about the RRS. I can’t wait to see what happens and I have a gut feeling that this team is going to do some special things this year going forward.
I second your emotion!!
BOOMER!!!!!
Make up your mind, Oklahoma!
Does Texas suck, bite, or blow? Please explain your conclusion. Extra credit for explaining how they can do all at once.
“Hating Texas Since 1961”
How about how Texas compares to the female anatomy?
Awesome, now can an artist among us merge those 2 pics together in a way that’s difficult to tell which one it is? Then put that on a shirt…
All three actually. They’re all 4- and 5-star recruits so they’re very talented.
OU/Texas Stat of the Day:
While we all know the series stands at 60-43-5, did you know that in Total Points, Texas only leads by 35 (1860-1825)? Which is a lead I hope we can overcome soon!!!
Like everyone else, I was really disappointed with the loss last year, but especially since we were within 19 points of the lead, and a 3 TD win wasn’t out of the question before the game.
(This is my own research and has not been vetted.)
Bet JH wish he had KT back. OU was a power team who was the best running qb definitely Thompson. He still struggles with throwing, but so does TK now we know. I’m starting to question Mr. JH definitely has game plan issues, and now his creativity is being questioned, use of talent on offense not being used efficiently. F back or H back still has not received a pass in rotation of passing yet. CONGREGATION KENDAL THOMPSON now BLOSSOM.
Rip caught a pass in the first game.
That Stills block…goosebumps…
