Will this be the easy win so many OU fans are expecting/hoping for, or will the Cyclones carry over the momentum from their shutout of Texas last week?
I guess we’re about to find out.
Time to go to work.

BOOMER. NO LET DOWN. TCU OUT. DOWN TO THREE.
SOONER! ONE GAME, ONE WIN AT A TIME!
SOONER! There is only ONE Oklahoma!
Just so you know, I did shower before coming in here 😉
That would be mandatory, especially if you lived anywhere near Austin. 🙂
I was living in that other thread
Bad news… The E is falling off my Sooner jersey. My wife said, well I know what to get you for Christmas. And THAT is why I love that woman!
SOON RS
Red Shirt Sooner
LOL! Yep, but the 3 on my 13 is coming off too. Guess it’s time for a new one. I’ve had this one for a long time.
She doesn’t know how to sew?
That would look bad. LOL And no, she can sew buttons back on but that’s about it.
I don’t expect Tapper to have a big day like last week. The freshman QB always rolls to his right, so Tap will need to maintain backside integrity in case of a reverse or backside throw.
Bond!
STRIKER TOO!
Before this thing gets started, just wanted to say that both the Men’s and Women’s BB teams looked really good this past week. I got to watch them on FSSW and really like the chemistries of both teams. Lot of depth and kids that seem to really playing together.
What were their exhibition game results?
OU spanked Washburn by 50, I think. Bob Chipman, Washburn’s coach, was the basketball camp I always went to. He is a pretty good coach. Of course he played at KSU with Lon Kruger.
Washburn was no slouch. They have some pretty good players and a good system. OU just looked that good.
Girls 111-73, Men 112-62, I think
going to be fun to watch them both this year
I also really, really like the 4 quarters for the girls game now. 5 fouls in each qtr, then bonus. No 1and1’s in womens BB any longer. Would like to see the men’s game go to 4 quarters now. Speeds up the game.
I have said that for years. I hate the two halfs thing.
Just stepped outside…..no cyclone warnings going off. We got this.
Been waiting all day to type that, haven’t you?
Any decent tent has flaps to hear through.
Frog’s defense is offensive. LOL!
Boykin looks like the old Boykin today.
Just what I was thinking
But he doesn’t play D. He has run well, but his WR’s are like not even trying.
I think that the loss of Doctson is a lot like what we looked like last year after Shep went down last year.
Exactly!
QB is only as good as those that make him look good.
Now don’t go blaming his barber. 🙂
How do you go for the pick when you have no help over the top? WOW!
Ask Austin… hehehe /s
Should have known when TTech played them so close
And K-State.
dis-man-tled
And “dissed.”
OSWho came to play. TCU thought they could just show up. Reminds me of a game earlier this year that I will not mention.
Don’t think so. OSU was undefeated as well. Texas was bad.
True, TCU looks awestruck and have looked that way all day.
WOW! TCU is beyond done!
osu going for the jugular here… starters still in throwing bombs.
Classy?
Classless?
Statement.
oh yeah, i agree- I just don’t like ANYTHING osu does
I acknowledge their right to exist, that’s all.
barely
As long as it is not MY O2.
I hate the idiots beating on the side of the stadium.
they were told that they get free tickets to Maury
LOL!
Still the third quarter. I say you keep your foot on their throat until they can’t breath. Don’t let up.
Still a LOT of time left in this game. Gotta put the foot down.
I’ll allow it…. TCU doesn’t mind doing it to teams. What goes around…….
TCU has moved the ball well on the ground today. But their passing game has been horrendous.
ok… shifting gears here- does Warren eclipse 100 yds today?
Yes, I’m going to say he gets 103.
lol
No, but they get 100 as a team.
Watching LR very enthusiastically shake hands with the players down on the field. I think if he sticks around he’s Bob’s successor.
are you in the stadium?
Affirmative
good for you, be loud.
What are the weather conditions, including the wind?
Cool with a very light wind. Pretty nice actually
Excellent!
Be loud and proud!!!
My thoughts as well- I think the combo of LR and Cale would be awesome- the kind of guys players love to play for.
LR looks pretty hyped up it’s nice to see that out of a coach
Ole Miss not looking like they can beat Arky. Wow.
Based on this week’s results, pokes might pass baylor in the next ranking.
They should. Baylor struggles against KSU and Pukes blow out TCU? Leaving Baylor ahead of them seems too ridiculous even for the committee.
I can see, in a nightmare of sorts, the pokies winning out, going to the playoff, blowing out their first opponent and then getting smashed by Venables
I can’t, but only because I am completely incapable of imagining anything good ever happening to Okie St.
i said it was a nightmare
You might want to schedule an appointment. That sounds awful.
i have ointment, does that count?
Obvious sleeping disorder!
Shut your mouth! Pukes not us? Kidding.
Dinner time and I’m out.
Y’all be excellent to each other.
GO S00NERS!!!!
BOOMER!!!
SOONER!!!
Made some burgers and tots for pre-game meal. Thought about you the whole time. 😉 We shall bask in victory later, sir.
I had rib-eye and tots. ET is an influence. lol
If you could get hammered with any Sooner figure, past or present, who would it be?
Barry Switzer
Indeed
Just visiting with him would be worth the time!
Stacey Dales 🙂
The $EC east has to be the worst division in big time football. WOW
Boomer…
Sooner!
What are the pregame meals we’re having? Tri-tip here and pints of Fosters.
I’ve been sick so I get Papa Murphy’s meat lovers pizza. I’m tired of soup. LOL
There you go. You’ll feel better in no time.
Friends bringing pizza with them…
We got to be focused tonight. Perine and Mixon…
Frito pie and Sam Adams Boston lager for my game watching crew
Sam Adams nice.
1″ thick Rib-eye seered to a perfect medium rare with a side of tots. lol
Nice.
And you didn’t share?
Was willing, but no one else showed up. 🙂
In my defense, I’ve been asleep pretty much for two days with a fever. UGH!
Offensive player of the game tonight?
Defensive?
Playing it safe. Perine/Striker.
I’d be fine with those two winning it.
Baker Mayfield
Jordan Evans.
Shep Shannon
I’ll go with Baker and Alexander
Clemson up by 10 now. I am okay with that.
Sucks! I want them to lose.
I think that if FSU were to win, they would both be ahead of us. Neither team will lose any other games this season, imho
We have to believe that if OU is the Big 12 champ at 11-1 we will not be left out. The S will hit the fan if that would happen. So any other three teams can go, don’t care.
Not looking promising for that though. B1G could have undefeated champ, $ec could have 1 loss champ and well know that no one can beat any team in that conference… And then you have ND & Stanford. They play each other later in the year, but do not really play anyone else. UGH!
I cannot stand these morons in the E$PNU center. Morons!
ESPN Ole Miss 45 Ark 38 “An old school shootout.” “OU 52 Baylor 45…no defense being played in the Big 12…”
are you in a time machine?
Yes.
sweet, send me some scores
Write down a ton of scores then we can go to Vegas together!
No kidding!
There is only ONE Oklahoma!
BOOMER!!!
Sooner!
Boomer!
Sooner!
“Oklahoma State wins the toss…”?
wtf refs?
Oh no. Refs.
Big xii refs are the worst out there. UGH!
And it is time.
OOOOOOOOOOOOO U!!!!
Sure is nice to see 23 on the field!
Jordan bit inside. If he stays outside that is short. UGH!
Good
Play by the ISU QB
Dang
Their O is moving with ease against us.
CALL THE HOLD!
C’mon contain.
Nice stop by Austin
He isn’t afraid to tackle!
Good stop
BLOCK IT!
It’s all part of our evil plan 😉
Ok, let’s get the O going. These announcers are the worst we have had all year!
tune the radio in
I’m in SW Kansas.
You got a link?
http://www.kkgmam.com/listen-live/
Didn’t like that defensive series at all. Where’s the contain on the QB?
What the heck??? Is the thread working?
Oh, so I wasn’t the only one.
Nope.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOOMER!
That TD play threw this site for a loop!
LOL! No kidding!
Wow. Sweet…..
I guess we broke the board momentarily. Huge play to start the game. I think Shannon should be playing
I am starting to think so.
Yeah, I thought it was just me. It kept saying I wasn’t connected to the internet, which we have been having issues with, but I was connected. UGH!
So let me get this straight. OU does on the very first play what Texas couldnt do their whole game against ISU…..score.
Texas still sucks.
Anyone have a link to the game? ESPN is supposed to be hosting it, but it’s not working for me.
http://tv.moviesntvlive.com/espn-u-tv-live-stream-watch-espn-u-tv-channel-online-free/
Thanks, but it finally got working.
http://cricfree.sx/american-football-live-stream
Well, since my post didn’t go through the first time when we scored:
Hahahahahahaha!
Perine, FIRST DOWN!!!
Time to show them we aren’t texsa.
Dang, missed Andrews
Durron was open right after the snap. UGH!
Baker! Dang it dude. Make quicker reads. 2 guys open and you held on to long.
Dakota!
Great wrap up
DEFENSE!!!!!!
Love the way Austin wraps up
Austin is way more physical than Sanchez
Can someone link the radio broadcast please?
Look down the thread, I asked for it and got it below.
Thanks, I went pretty far down, guess not far enough
J Thomas misread that.
Mis-communication somewhere. Glad he missed the pass
Yeah. Saw parker talking to Thomas.
Communication is good. 🙂
Always enjoy the timeouts.
On 3 and 15?
Sarcasm. Bob and co love to call timeouts like this.
Gotta pee?
damn, arkies beat ole miss in ot…….catch the highlights to see the ark ot incredible play….geez, good game
Yes. Eliminates another SEC team.
Ole miss goes down
Dakota is AWESOME!!!
Austin killing it.
Nice int
AUSTIN!
HERE WE GO!
I guess Sanchez is now second string lol
Really. Depth is good.
Tipped it to himself! Lol
Tipped it to himself! Lol
Turnover.
DD
Get 7 here.
Get 7 here.
Did, DD
Did, DD
TOUCHDOWN DEDE!!!
TOUCHDOWN DEDE!!!
Hell yeah!
Hell yeah!
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
DeDeDeDeDeDe
DeDeDeDeDeDe
Well another one play TD.
Dede…
Good blocking.
Cross Boykin…..insert Mayfield.
Well oiled machine. 31 drives without a punt
Wow, 2 drives under 15 seconds. LOL
BB doing work!
love it love it love it. BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
Who is kicking?
Bond!
Gettin it done!
Bond, nice to have you back.
Our D looks hungry these days, loving that!
I can’t believe anyone can be pissed at any time with Mayfield (timely criticism is fair). First year as a true starter, in a new system, and a transfer walk-on. He has gone beyond expectations for me by miles.
Thank you.
Bond nice play.
Tapper, the sack machine!!
Tapp attack
Tap!
<—-
TapTapTap!
Tapper playing like he can…I was down earlier…but Tap making people tap out.
Diron making a difference
Austin for punt returner…..anyone??
Theres been a Mixon sighting
Holes everywhere.
Just missed Shepherd.
Mixon on the swing was wide open
Baker!!!!
Damn! Go Baker!
WOW
That was exactly what I just said!
Shake N Bake!!!
lol @ Bakers mid air dance
Luvin it!!!
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
And Mayfield with the Sergio Garcia leap into the end zone!
I guess some good things do come out of Austin. Boomer Baker!
Heisman?
No.
Heisman.
Games over.
Nice bicycle kicks on that jump into the End Zone.
I love the energy that Baker brings to this team!
Eactly
Zacly, or is it xacly???
I knew what he meant!
I knew what he meant too!
lol Sorry Im ‘cited!
Me tu.
Who is long kicking for us tonight?
Nick Hodgson?
Even the ball girl was paying attention to what Baker has to say on the sidelines. lol
I believe the Sooners D woke up!
Yeah playing well.
My wife just said they already have it won, can we watch something else now… REALLY?
NO!!!
That was my response!
Lol no.
My last week my wife told me to go to a bar.
Blowing up the screen, D looking good!!!
D…..
Baker, FIRST DOWN!!!
Get the quick hitters to Dede.
Thank you Samia for covering that
I figure if we can win all 4 of our last games by an average score of 104-7 maybe we can sneak into the playoffs
That might do it
Terrible job Baker. You had Mixon open in the flat.
Andrews time.
Whew
That was an ugly series!
tweren’t purdy
Yer ato curect semes to b brok.
eitr tht r my brin
Lets not make this a common occurence.
Why move away from Perine? Perine running opened the passing game.
First punt in how long??? wow
He needs to be told to throw to the flat.
Do we still punt? can’t remember.
Seibert is still on team.
I forget.
It was a pretty darn good one too.
BTW, 31 was the answer to how many series since our last punt.
Wow! Alright, time to start another streak!
Walker, Sack #2
Hahahahahaha!
3rd & 19 from the 1. C’mon D, lets go get’um!!!
ok Tapp is on drugs lol
Keep giving them to him whatever they are
And share some with the offense!
And with TFB crew while theyre at it.
I’ll take some of what he’s having. 🙂
I think he may be eating chocolate covered expresso beans!!! lol
Fire Mike Stoops!
dont forget Kish 🙂
And Kish!
Now dang it! And Venables!
I would drop kick midgets for a Saftey right now
Lol
I would stomp baby ducks. 🙂
Think Sanchez’s job might be in jeopardy.
I say to not mess with this chemistry- when he gets healthy, leave him on the bench
Agreed!
Nope
At this point Id hate to see them take Super Gnat off the field
He’s packing a bag for the NFL, haven’t you heard? 🙂
Nope
Nebraska up 10-3. Wonder how long they can keep that up
For at least one more drive. LOL
wow, false start at the 1. lol
Gotta give ISU’s o-line props there, they blocked well.
Wow, he hit that receiver. Receiver dropped it.
Wasn’t he down?
No. fumble.
Looked to me like he was down.
Looks like a fumble. UGH!
Crap!
Dang,
Perine
I haven’t seen anything that would overturn it yet.
For as strong as he is, no excuse for dropping the ball.
Pushups every 5 yards for him Monday!
down.
Looks down to me.
I think they should let us decide.
Great idea.
I can’t believe there is no camera on that side of the field.
Sucks!
Alexander!!
Perine won’t see the field again this year……./s
My wife is losing her mind. I have the Sooners on the radio and OhSt on tv while I follow along here online.
Too many distractions…..get rid of the wife. 🙂
She feeds me.
My wife is reading a book beside me now.
Perine in doghouse.
6’6″ vs 5’8″ No contest
Wow, good coverage by Austin, but great catch
He’s almost a foot shorter than the guy. Not much he could do different.
Agreed
And Perine has had a few this year. Maybe this young man needs some intense “coaching” to get this straightened out
Good coverage by JT
lucky
That too, but he was in position
Better tighten that up some. Coleman catches that for a TD.
Way too many open recievers imo.
Biting on the run fakes.
Dropped passes misses throw as opposed to great coverage.
6 points. Way too much
Fire Mike immediately
Fine I’ll say it first. I think Dakota Austin is actually playing a tad bit better than Zach Sanchez. He’s clearly the better tackler
Giving Kansas easy points on a turnover, now ISU. This isn’t the time of year to be doing that.
It sure bit TCU in the butt today!
There ya go Baker. Take what the D gives you.
Sometimes, it is better to throw it away
For crying out loud, what is the offense doing? Stop the cute crap and just execute. This is nuts!
Shep!
Short
Good job Shep.
Shep short.
Wow. Way to go Shep!
Punt, fumble, punt. Better get this cleaned up before next week.
Trying to be too dang cute. Cut that crap out!
Hit them in the mouth and be done with it.
Exactly!
How was that short?
Stepped out
2nd quarter has been kicking our nards lately
SHep should have got the 1st.
ISU getting lots of sympathy from zebras tonight
No lie there!
I’m not sure but I think that last run was something they call off tackle ?
It works really well when the D overpersues.
Come on, D…
Missed tackle. WTF.
3rd and 2
correction. 3rd and 1
Stop trying to strip the ball out and put the runner on the ground!
4th and 2.
Feels like Tulsa.
HE DID NOT GET IT!
Good D!!!!
Stopped them on 4th
Hell yeah!
WALKER!
Nice! Now lets go O..punch this drive in!
Well dont run at Walker stupid.
Now someone run to the OU sideline and put some smelling salts under the offense’s noses!
Foot to Throat boys!!!
I want an OU score!
Jam those receivers at the line of scrimmage!
Id like to see Mayfield try to hit Andrews right up the middle
Duron, FIRST DOWN!!!
Neal, FIRST DOWN!!!
Great catch!
All right!
THAT is a catch!
No doubt about it.
Catch. Good job, Neal.
Funny, it will not let me post the same thing 2 times in a row, I had to change Duron to Neal. lol
Be original. 🙂
Everytime!!!
Helps keep us from being inundated by morons.
That was a NFL catch
Nice stiff arm Baker!
First down right here!
Duron, FIRST DOWN!!!
Shep was open right after snap, deliver the ball!
Nebraska looking good against MSU and U Dub over Utah early. OU could make a big jump this week.
Love how much Neal has stepped up this year.
He’s been solid.
The right side of our line struggles, BIG TIME
Alvarez being hurt is not helping at all.
Good stop. Need O to move now.
Could have been a flag there.
Could have been, but I think it was a good no call. Both guys were pushing and shoving.
Perine doghouse?
probably till half
If he is he wont be there for long
No, he has been in there since his fumble.
was not a fumble 🙁
While I agree with you, the moron officials do not.
Agree. Right knee hit before the shoulder.
Savin him for later
Dink and dunk a little more here.
*drink and *drunk. 🙂
Yeah. My bad.
timeout ? SS on a island = gimme
Dang
Hurried his throw.
finding ways to Not win ?
UNREAL!
C’mon Seibert, gotta hit that
WTF???
Bad pass.
is he aiming at poles now?
Must be playing too much golf.
Well, damn, Seibert. What’s the deal?
Pick 6 would be nice here.
There always seems to be a stretch that we let teams back in the game before pulling away. Frustrating.
Good grief!
Nice play by Evans and Walker
Seibert better get it together, he could be the difference in the next three games
I see Evans is back
Good stop by D!
Evans drove someone back
Shannon in.
Can we get a punt return TD this year?
Haha….shep is only back there to catch it…not return it.
Dang, sack is not good
Yea this is getting pretty disgusting.
This 2nd quarter has me concerned a bit
Right side of the line is not playing well.
That was on the left guard.
Yes but the pressure is coming from the right side.
Mayfield is dragging his left arm
Dang, another punt
The oline is starting to lose it.
Why are there so many pass plays; the run has been working pretty well.
Air raid. 🙂
Freaking ugly! WAKE UP!
Mayfield is sucking ass
Not enough short routes to make the DB’s come up.
I feel like we’ve thrown a bunch of short routes. Neal has 4-5 of them.
His second worst game of the year behind Texas.
I know his stats have been ridiculously good this year, but he has missed open receivers at times in all games, and still refuses to throw the ball away at times.
Baker being looked at on the sideline. Not good.
TK will win tonite.
I would rather Cody play than TK.
Hellll no…..knight is way better
To many pick 6’s for me to like TK to play tonight.
Agreed (that TK is preferable).
I actually think we can win with any of our QBs. I am totally sold on BM and glad he proved me wrong but we should be in good shape. I am more concerned with the long stretches without running the ball.
Yep, we have to run at least some to keep them honest. UGH!
Would do wonders for our pass blocking.
That was bad D
That should have been an int.
C’mon, get it together!
Hopefully Baker is okay and the O Line will wake the heck up and protect their QB.
Jordan Thomas should sit when Sanchez returns.
good D, FG time?
People are getting open.
Only when plays break down….that was a heck of a catxh by bundrage
f l a t
looking ahead you think?
got up, too easily, too early- thought it was a cake walk
Riley distracted by head coach interview??
Not #
Lost focus after 21-3…THIS CANNOT HAPPEN.
Wow, good from 51
48-16 final.
Going to be hard to hit 48 the way we are playing.
Yea i dont see breaking 40 now
the wr routes are too long tonite.
Well get the ball after the half. We should get back on track.
Do we need to stop everything and have a team meeting or something?
Do we even practice special teams????
ass-chewing in the locker room, better be one or two
Get the ball to Dede and Shep
P….A…..thetic!!!! This team is too bipolar
that’s what happens when you start to coast- the other team pops you in the mouth
Not happy. But a game is 4 quarters. You need to remember how many times champions like USC would only lead 21-14 in games by half time.
what is this usc you speak of?
OU fans are bipolar lol!!!
That is why I think it’s crazy to expect or predict us to win the next three. In a vacuum we can win each game, sure, I just don’t know if we can play three good, complete games in a row. And that is what it’ll take to win those next three.
No points in the second quarter. That is terrible! Wake up!
What the heck are we doing!?!?
Sleepwalking.
Hmmmmm…..offense not moving the ball…..Perine fumbles…..Seibert misses FG.
Fire Mike Stoops!
Damn IT it’s FIRE KISH SHEESH!!!
Not our prettiest game but we’ll get it together in the second half.
I believe we will
I believe there will be several tongue lashings in the locker room!
I believe you’re right.
I think we score a couple TDs in each of the final 2 quarters and win by at least 25.
ISU is better on defense than I gave them credit for. Kudos to ISU D.
can’t see it……….is the oline getting handled causing problems?
If the offense is gonna score on single play drives, they have to continue to move the ball, or the defense is gonna get worn out. We should be able to turn things around after a dismal offensive performance in the second quarter, but it won’t be easy with a potentially tired D.
As predicted, ISU has a decent defense and knows how to play. Let’s hope the amount of time the D has had to be on the field doesn’t start making their running back look good in the 4th quarter.
Meantime, kudos to the D for stop after stop, under significant duress.
I imagine we start pounding Perine and Mixon in the 2nd half. That should give the D a breather.
Maybe, but ISU has dialed up some very effective run blitzes, after the first quarter that made it pretty difficult.
Fire the whole coaching staff, get a new rb, a new qb, and wr’s and get that damn line fixed and don’t we have young studs on D we can try out? “Says all the whoa is me OU fans right now”
LOL
Fell asleep in the 2qtr on offense and got away from running the ball. Giving isu confidence. Better show up from here on or this might become a close game.
This year there isnt anything special about our special teams.
I’ve watched ISU play two games this year. TCU and Tech. They played them tough in the first half, but fell apart after halftime. I am hoping that is what happens here.
I think we scored too quickly and the players felt like the game was in the bag. The problem was, Isu continued to play ball. Go to half, refocus, and come back out and win this convincingly! Boomer!
SOONER!!
BTW and a lil off topic well different sport, but, how did the Mens team look the other night and a score by chance I never heard or saw anything?
112-62, looked good. Lot of depth
Awesome that’a what I want to hear we will be really good in Basketball this year no doubt,, and thanks
Won by like 40…….maybe it was 100 to 62
Awesome, thanks.
I did not see it, but watched the score on twitter. Sounded like they woke up in the second half. Only one player did not score.
Love it we have the right mix of upper classmen and younger ones. Kruger has done a great job coaching and recruiting!
I’m a huge Kruger fan. I loved him when he was at KSU. I thought he was underrated. I was excited when OU hired him.
I don’t think anyone thought the game was in the bag. I think ISU made some quality adjustments and we helped them with a “fumble.” (Looked like he was down to me)
ISU stomped the crap out of a team we didn’t beat……I wouldn’t take them lightly.
So by that logic…OSU should kill us!!!!!
I don’t do logic. 🙂
Why? OSwho got two calls in their game with the team that will not be named, to win by 3.
I was talking about TCU killed Texas…OSU killed TCU
Me too
Interesting game. Great adjustments by ISU. That’s good coaching.
Ha. Auburn up on gAggies.
TCU loses. Fla. State, whose coach several on here were so high on, appears to have another loss…hmmm. Clemson holds the Seminoles high powered offense to 13 points. Remind me who their defensive coordinator is again?
Stoops is the HC at Kentucky now.
Venables, Venables.
Florida State’s Offense was high powered?
According to those looking for ANyTHING to bash OU on, yes. According to stats and the eyeball test, hell nah!
That “great” defense gave up 41 to NC State last week.
Here come da trolls, here come da trolls…
Sean Mcguire should have been pulled from that game early! Golson would have given them a much better chance
I wonder if they’d fall for that flea flicker like 3 more times this game.
Hope we open the half with the same play.
With the same result. That would be hilarious.
This is a different game if Perine hangs on to it. Huge momentum shift.
A couple good things happened today, Leach and the fighting cougars beat the fighting Jackie’s and Arizona State. And Arky won, Tech beat them, Ole Miss beat Bama…how about that defense in the SEC?
It would’ve been entertaining to see Ole Miss win out, and cause a blackhole in the heads of all the SECers when the playoffs either had a 2 loss SEC champ, or a one loss Bama (or Lester State) that didn’t even win their conference, as a participant. Or a miracle of biblical proportions…No SEC team at all, for rational-minded folk…and therefore, proving their might be some fair-mindedness in this playoff committee after all.
I seriously think we need a new special teams coordinator…..we have been irrelevant on special teams these last couple years
Last year? No.
Are you new here? U should meet Stevie dale and James Babcock. U would get along well.
So you think our return teams are top half of our conference???
No I don’t. But if I were to address the punt return issue I would be firing bob stoops. He’s making the call to do that.
AND, the same guy who did KO returns is there this year. What’s the coaching staff doing to limit him? Execution Is part of this game too bro.
Its laughable when we never set up the return this year on punts. Pathetic with all our athketes and speed actually
Call bob and tell him ur thoughts
Not the way to start the second half off.
Interesting to think this game is basically 3 scores to 3
Yep. And our offense looks offensive!
That’s a testament to our D.
DeDe, FIRST DOWN!!!
Need to keep feeding him.
There we go. Thank you.
I hope we get Alvarez back next week.
Me too!
Have a great second half! Go Sooners!
Baxter, FIRST DOWN!!!
Finally
More of that, please.
Perine, FIRST DOWN!!!
Love the quick tosses.
Alright…..come on O…..let’s get the momentum now
Duron, FIRST DOWN!!!
Neal is night and day better this year.
We need to be passing more to our RBs
We need to be running more with our RBs.
Just want to get them in space…but yeah that too.
Dang, FG time.
Fingers crossed.
Thank you Seibert!
Guard pulling from the left side to help pass protect on the right. I like seeing that when they blitz from that side.
Don’t want to have to depend on Seibert again….not looking great lately
Eh…let him get all the bad ones out now!
There we go, Seibert.
Good to see Hodgson kick it out of the back of the endzone.
He did that a lot last week.
Lol go, Nebraska. You can do it!
A Thomas has to get there.
I like the fact that we are not going to lest Warren beat us.
The D-line is absolutely NOT going to let ISU run the ball.
Dropped it!
Austin was close to his second pick
Yeaaa-Nooooooooo!
Tapper, Sack!!!
It’s the TAP ATTACK!
D saving the game.
Wtf catch the ball.
Where has this Tap been for the last year and a half???
I think his position coach has helped me out a bit.
probably helped Tap out too lol
Stupid auto-correct! It was supposed to em… UGH LOL
We got it. 🙂
Glad someone did. LOL
You’ve been looking better. 🙂
Thanks! LOL
I think that Reynolds is getting in him fired up.
Riley better not go brain dead on this series. Show something different on this series.
Lets pound the ball this drive.
Punch them in the mouth and then do it again, then do it again!
I don’t know. They are running Perine wide. One thing and tell me if I am wrong, Mixon is not as elusive as I thought. He doesn’t have the juke that Murray had in 07/08. He reminds me of 09 and PRO Murray. Brooks?
Yeah I agree. He has really good change of direction. But because hes a big tall rb he doesnt seem as elusive like you said.
I’m not a fan of all of our guys staying at the line and justwatching Shep get that punt all by his lonesome, surrounded by 72 cyclones.
Not a fan of any of our special teams.
Yes…we’ve heard.
Thanks for the update man!
I actually don’t mind. Better than fumbles and penalties on special teams.
I would just prefer our guys to engage them a little bit. Having all but the punter in Shep’s face doesn’t bode well if something flukie happens. Those lights can be a pain sometimes.
Dede, FIRST DOWN!!!
You have had to type that a lot today.
He probably has first down on auto paste lol
Perine, FIRST DOWN!!!
Todd, first catch of the season for 9
Great catch!
Baker, FIRST DOWN!!!
Whoa, Dallas Todd caught a pass.
Dallas WHO?
Baker, face mask. FIRST DOWN!!!
He’s running the wrong way!
Perine, TD!!!
There must be one hell of a delay on tv because you posted before the ball was snapped. LOL.
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
SOONER!
Thank you
Fumble forgiven
Yessssss! Hit the gas pedal!
LSU not doing their job tonight.
They are so overrated. They had 1 first down the last time I looked (5 minutes ago)
Of course. The one time we actually want them to win.
<—-
Perine.
Baker keeping it was huge to getting the Perine easy TD.
Nice
Navy beating Memphis
Go Navy. USN, never again. lol
Announcers praising the right side of the OL.
I told him to stop running at Walker!
Walker is stepping up! Reynolds has the D-line playing
Agree!
Walker for loss, good D.
My upset picks for the day just aren’t working out so far. Maybe I should try Minnesota over tOSU?
The Buckeyes just got a pick 6.
:/
Dang, letting the QB get free
Kansas 20 texsa 24
C’mon KU
I know right!
You serious Clark?
Well I have to submit a retraction. …ESPN had it listed at 20-24 but when i refreshed the score was 24-14. Smh.
This is your destiny, Kansas.
It was 17-0 Shorthorns earlier.
Wow, big time hold on the right side of the line, right in front of the official, and they do not call it.
Evans slow too to see the back in flat. Get over there!
Maybe his injury isn’t quite healed. If that is the case, put Frank in.
Defense looking bad now
Come on D! Stop then NOW!
He has all day to throw the dad gum ball
Good coverage. Nice blitz package on 3rd
4th, Incomplete!!!
J. Evans!
<—-
Show off. 🙂
LOL
Lol
W H E W.
Nice stand D! Oh…wait. I forgot, they got inside the 20. Fire Mike Stoops!
Shut up! 😉
OU.
I know, I know. Just can’t help myself tonight 😉
Mac, agree in spirit, but this is ISU and they are moving the ball more than I like.
ISU is not a bad team. Just saying.
I agree.
In all fairness, ISU has moved the ball well against all the top teams they’ve played in conference so far this year.
I agree with you up to a point, but what I’m seeing right now is a much improved ISU from the beginning of the season. I mean they did pitch a shutout against the whorns while scoring 24…..just saying.
True. Maybe I’m too greedy or have unrealistic expectations. But this CFP committee pisses me off. I feel like we have to win 60-7 every game.
This ISU team SHOULD have beat Iowa. One bad call then a bad play after that is why they lost. They played them tough.
Actually that’s probably accurate
And Kish
This crowd is dead. I really think stoops 96-8 or whatever is impressive for how lifeless our crowd is and has been.
Also I’m needing us to get 3 more tds. 50 points is a must
OUr crowd is rarely “live” too many blue hairs and the student section only gets loud with their moms. And that’s only when on break from staring at the $600 worth of Korean plastic in their palms.
Perine, FIRST DOWN!!!
Hammer time!
thats what ISU thought 🙂
changing into “Hammer” pants as we speak!
Video or it didn’t happen. 🙂
You’d blackmail the hell out of me!
Not happening.
Shep, TD!!!
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
SOONER!!
SHEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<—–
It’s not nice to point. 🙂 But it’s allowed.
Luv the shirt, gotta point, can’t help it. 🙂
That was beautiful.
There you go!
BOOMER!!!!
SOONER!
Now the O wakes up. Quick D stats for you: allowing 3.8 yards per play and .75 pts per drive yonight. Not bad considering ISU has dominated time of possession.
I do wish yards per play was closer to 3.0 but they’ve hit a few big ones.
This Jimmy Kimmel commercial is getting annoying…
LOL Yess it is!
There aren’t many commercials I like.
Shep really is starting to remind me a little of Broyles
If he didn’t get injured last year, i think that would be a very good comparison. There is no doubt the young man is what we would all hope our Sooner men to be.
Wow, LSU decided to show up, 10-10
LSU/ Bama tied.
Dang, don’t let up D, put your heal down.
Okay put in Q.
YES!
Other than Tap the D line is getting beat.
They are getting worn down. Give ’em a break, put in the 2nd guys and let them go for a while.
They’ve been out there a long time.
They’ve been out there because they are getting beat.
Pin your ears back and get after them.
I’ll allow it.
Get off this site.
If you reply to those bots, they stalk you.
Ouch, I hope not.
Just report them.
I love you Magdalena!
Defense looks tired, but O is scoring just enough. Defense is hanging in there very nicely tho.
Striker! Sack
4th sack for the night
Stands out clearing out fast.
I hate that
When I go to a game, I stay. Dang, that money is hard to come by.
We wait all year for Sooner football. Just get 13 games or so.
Im staying to the end of each and every one of them.
I get to go to one game a year. You are darn right I’m staying! KU game last week, I was still in my seat when the clock hit 0:00 in the 4th.
Wow.
3rd and 10
Navy over Memphis by 11 and about to score again. Radio announcer just said Striker is the best name in football. No argument here.
Striker almost had another!
ISU going on 4th and 10
Inc, Good D
Got a good push on D to force a bad pass.
Now let’s go score another TD!
And take up some time off the clock.
Most definitely!
I’ve got nothing better to do, let’s drag this out till bed time. 🙂
lol
I just really like Striker. I hope he plays on Sundays…
He will find a home. Lots of guys have made a living as pass rush specialists in recent years.
Especially as more pro teams adopt spread principles…an area where Striker can excel.
NU/MSU keeps going back and forth. Hope Huskers can pull one out.
MSU up 5 with the ball. UGH!
Considering the length of time on the field, the Defense is playing OUTSTANDING!
Go, Joe, go!
Duron, FIRST DOWN!!!
This is what I HATE about games on E$PN, here they are talking about all these other games. I DO NOT CARE! Talk about OU/ISU ONLY!
Mixon, TD!!!
Impressive too!
Most Definitely!!!
BOOMER!
SOONERS!!!
Sooner!
Smokin Joe !
Joe SHOW TIME Joe!
Big Show Joe
<—-
Yeah! All right, Mixon!
pffft…….Fournette who?
Well, we got at least 40!
I’m calling half a hundred again.
Yeah. It should happen, unless Bob calls off the dogs.
Mixon for President!
How bad could it be?
We wouldn’t have to worry about him having press conferences. LOL
That’s a good thing right there.
Yes it is.
Just as a point of comparison
TCU 45 ISU 21
Baylor 45 ISU 27
OU 45 ISU 9 ( current score )
The playoff committee will look at those things.
Yeah, right.
HAHA.
And, OU has a win against the SEC.
(This season)
But it’s not a quality win, even though it was on the road and early in the year. UGH!
The other thing to consider is TU should finish at or above .500 which will help. I think Akron will too but I don’t know what their current record is. Our OOC is very respectable and our final stretch will be impressive of we can win out.
But we are in the Big 12, the committee hates our conference.
I’ve heard most talk about Tennessee as being a good team that just fell short a few times. Their loss to the Pigs is about their only “bad” loss.
Oh I agree. But the stupid playoff committee does not seem to think that way. I have no idea what they were thinking in their horrible rankings.
If conventional wisdom holds, at least they have the SEC patch on their shirts!
Hope they don’t forget we beat Bama.
Mixon is the best RB at OU
He’s different. They are both “best”.
One of for sure. He has stuff that no one else does.
That is 215 rushing yards tonight for the Sooners.
200 on the ground should be a weekly goal.
Exactly!
Jordan’s game analysis:
Yeah but that second quarter was horrible
Someone please explain the punt return philosophy to me
I don’t understand why Andrews is not more involved
lol
Pretty good special teams play on that kick coverage.
D…there ya go!…
550 yards of O
280 D
and he still runs at Walker…….IDIOT
Next week is gonna be a matchup!
If we can keep the big play under control and stop the freaking 9 yard curl route, I like our chances. But our offense has to be consistent moving the ball.
Agree, that curl and fake curl, go is hard to defend.
I know.
especially with Coleman running it
Have to get pressure with our D-line to disrupt that.
It’ll be a challenge.
We have played well in the secondary. I think coaches need to stress solid tackling and don’t take risks playing the ball. Then unleash our pass rush on the true freshman QB.
I agree with that completely!
I like that Warren kid. Wish we had him too.
He was quite good against Baylor.
Well I will settle for Perine and mixon
The Fat lady is tuning up.
la-la-LA_La-la-la
Time to run the ball and the clock.
Agreed
Striker has really helped Samias development…couldnt ask for a better guy to practice against.
Striker just got tackled at the official’s feet, with said official watching. Not one flip was given by said official.
It’s happened several times tonight. Big XII officials suck eggs!
I know. I just thought that particular one was hilarious. The ISU QB was running towards the camera, and i stayed on the play behind the play. The ref looked so serious watching that big guy flop on Striker. I’m thinking, “if you’re not gonna call that, at least look elsewhere so you have some deniability!”
T. Knight going in the game
Need half a hundred.
Another Twin connection? Please.
Time to get the starters out.
Andrews,TD!!!
I guess we will run the clock on the NEXT possession.
I am okay with the quick scores. Lol
Me too! LOL
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
SOONER!!
ANDREWS!!! PAYDIRT!!! BOOMER!!!
SOONER!
<—-
55 Yards……ANDREWS!!!
Well that was easy.
Surprise! Meet Mr. Andrews!
Dang look at Andrews wheels!
That’s some nice accelaeration
Wow Andrews showed speed that I didnt know he had.
Andrews half a hundred see! Can he get on the field a but more please?
He was on the field all night. I saw him at least 6 times tonight. He was even target once. Just a bad throw by Mayfield. He will get his. Kid is learning and so is the O.
Andrews got him some hip moves!
Yeah, 6’6″ with some moves and speed. Gotta luv it!
nice moves and speed – need more plz
Somebody please tell me just how in Zues” Butthole we lost to the Horns.
Exactly. What a disappointment.
Shut-up! Don’t remind me! 😉
I got nuthin.
Who is Zues”, and why should i care about his or her excretion port?
They scored one more TD than we did. Normally that is how it works.
I think Tk has been on the field for 8 series and I swear its been 6-7 scores.
pretty good back up huh ,, did we mention hoe he did against Bama ? 🙂
4 straight at 50+ need to make sure we shut the door the rest of the way. I have a bet that we would win by 30
You should be ok, SHOULD being the key word.
I think the defense is getting pissed at the offense that we’re scoring so fast.
That is a good problem to have.
A lot of the second team is in.
Ok that is enough, put a stop on them NOW D!
I am okay with putting the starters back in for the red zone area
On to the gauntlet…
back ups having fun
Nice pop Frank!
Green and Mbanasor are the DB’s
Giving HUGE cushions too.
green looking good there
Hate that our fans don’t stay till the end.
Me too!
Me too but traffic in Norman sucks even without the games, and who wants to stay to the end of a blow out of Iowa St. As far as conference games go excitement is reserved for the Texas schools. Which I can understand because games versus ISU or the KS schools are historically rarely exciting.
Lol I wonder if Jordan E. Will be happy now in his “Thoughts of the game” now that we got Andrews on a 55 yard TD pass
you’re kidding, right ?:)
It was only one, though.
No because we still don’t block punt returns.
Damn.
Dang, let them score
-_-
I really would have liked to NOT give up a TD in this game.
Against second team D.
Oh I know. And they were playing really soft. But still, I know it’s mop up time, I would have prefered to not give up a TD to them.
PJ pretty bad tonight.
perfect pass and catch there
I wouldn’t say that.
You’re making it sound like he’s played all game. There’s no pass rush now and he completed passes all over the defense.
We’ve got to make it up now. trick play.
Gotta wonder if stanvon is even on the team at this point. If they aren’t going to play the kid when they clear the bench then I think they need to move him to offense.
I hate giving up TD’s in garbage time…
I’d rather get our second-third team in to get quality reps than to see a blowout.
There are positives to that.
We need that depth!
PJ gotta get better.
2nd teamers on D look a little rough on that series. Good experience to have plays that allow coaches to coach them up and help their growth
Heard it here first: The CFP will come down to Ohio st, Clemson, Bama in as champs. The last spot will be decided between the Big 12 champ and the winner of Stanford/Notre Dame.
I would not disagree with that. But I think it is the Floriduh/Bama winner that is in.
Hard to argue with that but I hope not.
There is still a chance for a couple of teams in the Big 10 to stumble. All we really need, other than to win out, is for Clemson to trip up in the ACC championship or the Big 10 champ to have a loss or two.
TK and Ross
RUN THE CLOCK!
Grant, FIRST DOWN!!!
Ross, FIRST DOWN!!!
Nice run.
Knight to knight again? Maybe?
629 O
Brooks sighting
That is encouraging.
Brooks, FIRST DOWN!!!
Looked good.
All right, Brooks!
So glad Brooks is back and healthy. He is a good change of pace.
We will need him down the stretch.
Yes we will.
Plus, he has the quicks. Like it.
Dang! I thought he would score there.
Bob almost looked upset he got that close.
Brooks okay, FIRST DOWN!!!
Good to hear we are starting to get healthy. Any Sanchez updates?
According to many on this board, it really doesn’t matter, he would be a backup anyway.
Brooks, FIRST DOWN!!!
Take a knee
Brooks.
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!
50+, gotta Love it
SOONER!!!
Primetime 7 pm on ABC next week.
Fans booed taking the knee.
we’re all out for blood after Texas….
And rightly so!
Wanted Brooks to get that TD. lol
On Waco. Let’s go get some Bear.
All right, guys. Set your Bear traps and get your holy water. Time to whoop some Baylor Bear ass!
OU 689 Yards – 284 rushing 405 passing
ISU 374 Yards – 114 rushing 260 passing
Awesome!
I am happy to see us setting up the D. The only negative was the 2nd quarter with the fumble and the O going into a funk.
I still think we have an excellent chance next week.
BOOMER!!!
Totally different team after half time, on offense. They tried to get to cute in the 2nd quarter. But I agree, the D is looking good!
SOONER!!!
SOONER!!! So you’re saying there’s a chance.
There is always a chance.
Oh yes! I believe.
https://youtu.be/YH65jS-EseQ
What’s with the medical gloves? LOL
Not sure, but am guessing that USU is the color, or maybe they beleive Utah is in need of sterolization. lol
I might actually watch College GameDay next week.
If they are in BigXII territory, I would do so myself. Would be the first time this season!
What channel?
ESecPN
Damn, I only get EsecsecsecPN.
Go to bed.
You ain’t the boss of me!
My son used to tell me that all the time.
Until you took away his dinner?
Until I stood up, then he would do what I said. LOL! I told him, when he was a freshman, that I would go in the backyard and fight him anytime. He and my oldest son teamed up on me one night and when my wife came home from somewhere they were on the floor with me on top of them doing the typewriter on their chests. My youngest then said, ok, when you are 100 I’ll take you on.
That’s your opinion.
nice offensive adjustments after the second quarter, and thanks to Mike and his troops for shutting down ISU in the second half as well.
Starting D only allowed 3 fgs.
I’ll take that next week!
Ain’t that the truth!
I thought the D played great all night. Especially as much as they were on the field in the 2nd quarter.
I guess warm up time is over. Time to get serious. 🙂
Woah Nebraska!
Is that on TV?
espn
It is but Im not sure which channel
Found it. E$PN
they take lead?
Up by 1 with 17 seconds. NU kicking off.
What was with that crappy kick off??? They almost guarantee MSU a FG chance.
STUPID
Nebraska going to blow it.
mich st got screwed?
Not yet. They are 8 yards from FG range down by 1.
you must be on delay………..screwed by neb td call
Game over. Not sure about the delay and I flipped over to see the failed 2 pt conversion. Did not see that play.
FYI……I HATE BAMA!
Me too!
I dislike them not as much as Lester State.
HEY, baylor…
https://youtu.be/6YVTksxZMOA
One of my favs of all time. So many great lines in one movie.
Then you know what bad intentions await baylor. 🙂
Yep. I’m comin’ and hell’s comin’ with me.
“Are you going to do something, or just stand there and bleed?”
I want Orlando to say this to Oakman several times!
A few weeks ago, I thought that TCU was our biggest challenge, then I was thinking Bears. Now, I think that the biggest challenge to finishing November undefeated is going to be Okie lite.
Amazing how much a few injuries can change a season for a team. Happened to us last year, and seems to be happening to TCU and BU this year. OSU is still full strength and that is making a difference.
Pokie state did lose a top tackler the same time WVU lost their defensive stud. But they have remained pretty healthy on both sides this season.
although. . . tcu was cheated out of 5 pts (obvious that osu was holding doctson’s jersey and should have been 1st and goal at 1; instead they kicked a fg) and they went for 2 when they could have kicked extra pt. SO. . . what I’m saying is at 5 pts to tcu=34 pts and osu beats tcu when they lose doctson, boykin throws 4 int. by 14 pts. okay.
it wasn’t THAT impressive of a win IMO.
Two take aways:
1. I don’t expect boyston to play that badly against ou but he will n/b/as explosive if doctson doesn’t play
2. we probably won’t give osu 4 TOs and we have a better O than tcu and a lot better D than tcu
Nebbish DE got away with hands to the face.
Ok, just a question. What the heck happened to Oregon’s offense? They are TERRIBLE
Coach left. Replacement is not the same.
Mariotta was that good too.
Remember how everyone was calling Stoops names for not going after Scott Frost…
LOL! Yes I do. Now look at him.
Huskers knock off Sparty.
(Maybe…clock question)
Nope. The ball has to actually hit something out of bounds for the clock to stop.
Yeah. Iwas just being tentative because they were still discussing it. I try to cover all the bases!
Oh My!
http://media1.giphy.com/media/MZ64XpHztvLva/200.gif
WOW! Good job Nebraska…. shaving my tongue now.
Huskers gave us a little Poll help… Now we just need Wash to get it toghether
Even with Stanford winning out, the Big 10 seems to be lagging a bit behind the Big 12 in national perception. Ohio St still has two tough ones against Sparty and Meechigan.
That makes what, 3 teams ranked ahead of the Sooners that went down today?
Awesome!
Need to let us jump Utah, Iowa and Florida. None have proven they should be ranked ahead of ou. I might give Iowa a break because they’re undefeated but they haven’t played anyone great.
I think we will find out how much impact ESPN has on the committee, if ou ends up in the top 10 then it’s fixed for ratings. Although I want us in the top ten.
If OU beats 3 ranked opponents in a row, they’d be crazy to not let us in the Playoffs.
I don’t think there are any questions remaining as to the mental stability of the committee.
They all quit taking their meds and they are running the asylum.
They are rushing the PDR to the printers for a playoff selection committee bipolar addendum.
Quite right!
Shhh! Let me have hope!
I agree but I think the best chance is for bedlam to decide who goes. Tcu is getting a break next week but will free fall afterwards.
If Sparty or the Harbaughs can handle Ohio St, i think whomever represents that division can take care of Iowa for us.
Silly sec wringing their hands over 10 to 14 points…..that’s like two minutes in the Big 12. lol.
We had three one-play drives today. Two mintues? More like twenty seconds.
My math may have had too much to drink. 🙂
I swear to drunk I’m not god!
I resemble that remark.
Officer: “You drinkin’?”
Me: “You buyin’?”
I need bail money.
See an officer I know on the side of the road so call his phone to ask when his shift is up, he says he needs to make a couple more “contacts” before he gets off. I say “why didn’t you just use me as one?”, He says “because I know you are drinking”. True story. 🙂
lol
I used to play QB. My old center is now a cop. He pulled me over one night. I said, “How would you like it if all your cop buddies knew I used to touch your undercarriage?” He left without saying a word. LOL
LOL!
That was a fun night.
ROFL
That’s funny right there!
“Sorry Officer, I thought you wanted to race.”
Baylor’s gonna big our first huge big test, but we’re gonna be their first big test as well. Should be a heck of a game.
I think we are better prepared, test wise, because of our away game at Tenn. That stage was as big, and the implications were intact then, too.
Charles Walker looks damn good in that #97. Brings back good memories.
Happy for Nebraska! That’s awesome.
Any update on Josh Doctson injury?
It looked really bad. He had his hand hidden the entire second half. I have a feeling he is done for the year.
Receivers don’t use their hands anymore, anyway. He’ll be alright.
be interested to hear the review shows on that neb td call
I never got to see the TD.
refs said mich st db forced oob the neb rec that caught the td……..commentators disagreed but it’s not reviewable……looked like a bad call
I think everything should be reviewable. UGH! I’ll have to look for the play tomorrow.
LOLOLOL aTm got their tail kicked at home by Auburn.
Good. Piss on ’em.
I agree!
LOL! gAggie.
Chattman will flip this weekend.
Do be right. Sylvie is downgrading the LSU behemoth all over twitter right now. People are afraid to talk negatively about LSU within Louisiana. Really appreciate that their stranglehold on the talent is loosening.
Game Day will be in Waco next week
Any tweets from recruits at the game?
And so the Memphis team that beat Ole Miss by double digits goes down to Navy by double digits……(snicker) 😉
Same ole miss has 3 losses now, but they are SEC
Three consecutive games with over six hundred yards. First time since 1971.
6 second drives help a lot, but the often unmentioned point about that stat is that the defense has to keep getting you the ball back quickly.
It also doesn’t hurt when your starting RB’s average 8.7 yds/carry and your starting QB averages 12.8 yards/attempt.
Wow, did not realize that. Feels good going into next week
Everyone of those big TD plays were things of beauty.
I loved the flea flicker to start the game. It was like watching a Rhonda Rousey fight.
yeah, took about that long to see the outcome
Yeah one of these days she is going to beat someone while the referee is still explaining the rules.
Personally, I can’t wait to see her go down. Tate is the only one that I’ve seen make her flinch.
That first sentence would get me in trouble with my wife. 🙂
Define trouble 😉
I do get tired of all the talk about her being the greatest athlete that ever lived. She’s a big fish in a small pond. It’s a lot easier to be that dominate when there aren’t that many other competitors.
Had a girlfriend once that would beat her butt and make her like it.
dominant*
*dominatrix*
kinky
Sure didn’t expect that play… crazy awesome!
I mean, I love a good play action to start the game, but damn.
Great way to start, very exciting. The Mixon run though, that was thrilling.
Yeah, they get used to preparing for impact with Perine and then Mixon comes along break their ankles.
And the Andrews catch and run
Lol….great analogy
fournette runs into a real run defense and carries 14 times for 13 yards. woof. Meanwhile, Boykin throws a handful of interceptions. I guess the “what have you done for me lately” Heisman voters are in trouble for now….
Doesn’t that mean he gashed the all-pro bama defense for 13 yards on just 14 carries?
No, that means Bammer has the best defense since the Purple People Eaters.
But we knew that because SECSECSEC.
good to see the swagcopter shot down again…
bama d came to play………thought it would be much closer game
Washington Petersoned out. Won’t knock the Utes off tonight.
Here is the Nebbish TD pass.
https://vine.co/v/eLLzxwpFXt7
Hard to say w/o seeing what happened before he stepped/was pushed out of bounds- this clip only shows him coming back in.
Agree, didn’t watch that game.
That’s all that seems available, at the moment.
understood
showed it several times during the game……according to the tv guys the db did nothing wrong but it wasn’t reviewable……rec stepped out on his own and came back in for catch
That’s all they showed on E$PN, they said the DB forced him out and he established himself in bounds before touching the ball.
I do find it odd that there is not one official in the picture- usually there’d be one along the sideline near the goal line
There was one up field from them a few yards and there is one on the goal line, but you cannot see him here.
Official Announcement! See you guys next weekend ??
https://twitter.com/collegegameday/status/663200211918045184
Even though they are espn, I feel sorry for their entire crew having to be in Waco for several days.
/yuck
As much as it pains me, I may have to unlock a channel for a day.
I hope they bring extra soap and shampoo. It’s hard to get that stink off of you.
Same. Boring and ugly doesn’t even begin to describe Waco.
They can stay in Roundrock… Or maybe …. South south south ft worth. Waco is soooo bad.
Or Temple or Killeen, heck even Hillsboro would be better.
Last time I was through Hillsboro it was practically dried up too
I wonder how many times they’ll talk about baylor’s fat ass tight end.
I fully expect to see an Over/Under on this in the prediction post
I expect all you fellers living in Texas to be there.
Waco is for driving through…quickly, not for stopping.
I get that. Kinda like Stillwater. But worse.
I think you meant Stoolwater. I live about 40 miles west of and when the wind blows just right.
Hennessey?
Enid
And Columbia, MO.
Any good drive thru eating holes? 🙂
No idea, I never stop and keep my eyes on the road and my hands upon the wheel.
I see what you did – the doors
Amen….. I once had to stop at about 2am & decided I’d take my chances on Czech truck stop before the whataburger
I’ll be there
Your sign better be funny
I don’t do game day BS any more… Not since FSU. But if I did it would be something to the effect:
River ✅
Boat ✅
Overhyped opponent ✅
Loud crowd (allegedly) ✅
Just like Tennessee leaving with the WIN only without your whiskey
4 unbeatens go down
Aside from OU, all the teams I wanted to win today lost. Sucks.
But then Nebraska was a nice surprise
They lost on a BS call
May have already been said but that was a class move by Stoops at the end, taking the knee.
It was…still, wish Brooks had scored on that run.
Yes it was. and I agree with ET, I was hoping Brooks would get in.
Me, too. Would’ve been 8 TDs by 8 different good guys.
I bet stoops told him after the game that he better score next time. Hopefully that’s next week. I think brooks can be a difference maker as the change of pace guy. He is so fast.
One thing I didn’t see today that I was wanting to see is if they would expand on the use of tight ends. They did vs Kansas and with the exception of Andrews being more involved, they didn’t go back to the grant experiment.
At least it wouldn’t have been our starters scoring just to pad some stats. 😉
LOL! Go Zona!
Just takin care of business…………
The Sooners have won four straight, outscoring their opponents 232-50.
50!? That’s waaay too many points. 😉
Are you saying that four teams conspired to hang half a hundred on us?
Funny stat: If those 50 points had been scored in one game, we still would have won.
LOL! True!
The crazy thing is that about half of those came off turnovers.
MSU lost on a BS call. I kinda feel for them.
Not even a little..
I have no dislike for Michigan State. Some great fans, fond memories of Keith Nichol. No problems rooting for them – until they play us, of course.
Is this LSU running back everyone is talking about playing tonight? 🙂
No. 🙂
He does have 31 yards now, on 19 carries.
Don’t make me repeat myself. :->
LOL! Yes sir!
Loved the toss run play to Perine. Always gained a lot of yards
I too liked that play.
I love that play and have always wondered why they didn’t use that with Ross.
This…. Although if Ross just had the tiniest amount of vision….
So it seems logical the committee would move us above MSU, TCU, and UF. I think we go to #11.
We won’t jump Floriduh, they beat a really, really, really tough $ec defense today 9 to 7.
I said logic, we know that doesn’t necessarily apply. I think BU #5 vs. OU #11. If we can pull it off on the road we would move up another 3 or 4 spots. We are in a really good spot right now imo.
Yes, I know. I agree with your thinking, but the committee has proved over and over that they are totally clueless.
I think baylor moves down this week.
Definitely possible but with 2 top 10 teams losing and UF deserving to lose I can see them and Bama moving up.
After the way baylor played the other night, they are exposed.
That is true. I just look at 7 and 8 losing and 9 looked worse so who jumps them this week? I just hope we can use KSU’s blueprint and our athletes to beat the brakes off of ’em.
Clemson will be #1 and Bama#2
Take that to the bank.
I think ND could be in the 3 0r 4 spot.
They aren’t sec good, though.
Yeah …I chose not to jump on that bandwagon O fun.
Join us, we are the real realist. ;->
1- Clemson, 2- Bama, 3- OhSt, 4- ND, 5- BU, 6- Iowa, 7- OSU, 8- Stanford, 9- LSU, 10- Utah, 11- OU, 12- UF
LSU #3
Gators #4, Ye Olde Miss #5…..
Arkie #5, Miss #6
Auburn #6. They won today.
Vandy came close…#7.
I dont know if Kentucky played today or not, but i haven’t heard that they lost today, so they must be tied for 7th, 8th at the least.
They lost, so that puts them at #10.
I had missed that little tidbit. Though i admit, i rarely have reason to actively find out UK’s scores.
Georgia in there somewhere surely.
Vols #7
Dak Prescott #8. Just him.
gAggie #9
Mizzery unranked. They just suck. lol
They are back after all
Absolutely. Not sure how far LSU drops. I’m guessing around 9.
I think OSU should jump,Baylor. OSU has the most impressive win this far in the conference.
Well it is on Gameday… SO prob 10 or under…
5 receivers with 50+ yards receiving, and 3 backs with 50+ yards rushing. This team is SOO balanced.
I wish they would have got Perine over 100 though.
I could tell Jordan Thomas got bored. He’s shut down every receiver he has played against he became complacent late in that game when they were throwing on him
He and Austin were in good position on most of those completions, they just weren’t tall enough to do anything other than interfere.
Yes, their receivers were rather long fellows.
Lazard is the real deal
You’re right JT’s coverage was a bit off. Needs to be sharper next week.
Ok, I don’t want to name names, but is anyone else being stalked by a certain poster that luvs Golf? This dude literally up-votes everyone of my posts. I feel like I should close my blinds and lock all my doors.
What a nice guy, looking to affirm affirm affirm.
I always feel the “luv”
I’m hearing that about you on the street. 🙂
You’re supposed to be in bed.
I’m close. A few more steps.
You’re so old. LOL
*wise
Touche’
Haha…. I know the feeling, don’t know if it is same dude…
If you don’t like it spit it out.

This is what makes OU a family.
I would 100% support this man succeeding Coach Stoops.

Y’all are the bees’ knees.
ESCO – Take it easy on the PR Team tomorrow.
I’m out.
BOOMER SOONER!!!!!!!!!
He never blames the PR “team”. It’s just the coaches decision to put Sterling back there that he continually drones about. I suppose he thinks the blocking is fine and all we need is a new coach with the sense to put some yet unplayed stud PR back there (who he is certain we have on the squad, but who for some unknown reason the coaches refuse to insert as our PR) who can magically return every punt for a TD.
The QB position in the Big 12 will be the best in the country next year.

Best OC we have ever had in my opinion. Yes he does have a lot to work with, but him and coach Collins running the DB’s we have a real shot the next few years.
A solid win. They just took care of business and made sure there was no doubt.
It still baffles me how we lost that one game.
Before I get hammered, I like Riley and glad we have him. However, there are a couple of things I notice we do all the time.
1) The run game was doing well but he prefers the pass. In the first half, I felt like we could’ve picked up a lot more 1st downs with the run but ended up 3 passes and out.
2) Passing seems outside the hashes. Hardly see a slant, skinny post, or seam. The middle is where you make a living, ask Baylor so I’m curious why we don’t pass more in the middle.
Getting hammered this early? And on a Sunday?
DUDE!
Hey bro, I don’t ever get hammered but I know if I say one thing about the game in a negative or critical light, I will get hammered.
Aww chin up.
See, I knew you guys would hammer me. : )
As to no slants in last night’s game, in fairness they have used those patterns in nearly every game this year. The way isu played the 3-4 and those LB blitzes up the middle may have had an impact.
I get it but when they are blitzing, hit the short route. Tired of Baker taking a pounding waiting for a long pass. I just want to see Andrews more involved in the middle. Andrews does a skinny post or drag with play action, he will destroy the LB’s.
Each game is different. This game the big gash plays were available.
Unbelievable.
Bon jour.
Here you go…

Good morning. I will have commentary later. I have to rake leaves today Pick up is tomorrow.
Before I sold my house and moved into a condo I had a leaf blower/vacuum/mulcher combo. Made the job so much easier. 🙂
Okay, I’m back. Max and I finished getting the leaves up. I do use a blower. I go back over it with a rake to get it a little better.
I learned what weck is last night. It’s a hardy bread with salt in the crust. It’s a good bread to dip in au jus.
Thanks.
I’ve watched up to half time, Antonio Washington is a beast. Does he have any offers. Who is number 80? He has a thick base and he plays with great leverage. Is he the freshman you were telling me about: first time playing the game?
I don’t know if AW has any offers. I see him listed as 6’2″ 260 at one place and 6’2″ 280 at another. I like his motor.
Number 80 is Fred Robinson.
http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/fred-robinson/I8PvPkqQEeW-8KA2nzwbTA/default.htm
I haven’t seen the freshman in recent games, I don’t think he is hurt just too light and inexperienced for the recent district games and their rushing games.
Okay. Robinson looks a lot taller than 6′.
As for the offense. Haller is fast and explosive. However, if they have another QB, I say put him in the game. They seem one-dimensional with Haller in the wildcat.
They brought the JV soph QB up and he played a little late in the 4th. Last week they opened the game with stud DB Cortz Hurd at QB with Haller and Chavis as his backfield mates.
Coach Harper is a good coach and it seems nearly every personnel move he has made in recent years have worked well.
I agree with your assessment. LR does get pass happy at times, but then again so do most OC’s out there these days. The thing I am liking about Riley though, is it seems he realizes when he gets too pass happy, and he makes dang sure and gets back to running the ball.
As for not utilizing the middle more, lets just say I hope its coming, cuz its certainly there.
VS ISU 33 passes, 39 rushes
VS KU 41 passes, 41 rushes
VS TT 22 passes, 57 rushes
VS KSU 32 passes, 52 rushes
If you’re supporting my theory of him “getting back to the run,” then awesome! If you are resisting my thought of “pass happy at times,” then I mean more of he’ll throw 5-6 times in a row sometimes, and get away from the run… but then he goes back to it, apparently in abundance 🙂
For whichever scenario you were posting those stats, 1) they’re awesome! 2) They are also a little skewed because we had really large leads in all of those, and were running much more in second half to run clock.
Why is it that the thing most fans fear most about Baylor is the same thing they complain about when OU does it?
Who cares?
Just move the damn ball and score.
Geez!!!!

I’m with you. Love Riley but he isn’t above criticism at all. He even admitted that he didn’t do a great job in that 2nd quarter. After the big blows in the 1st quarter they just kept taking huge shots. How many times did we see baker, once again holding onto the ball taking 5 step drops waiting for something to open up down field and getting sacked or pressured. This team must utilize the quick passing game. Mix slants, shallow crossers, stops, outs, bubbles, tunnel screens all of it to get the ball out in no more than 3 seconds.
I can’t remember how many times I was yelling at the TV “throw the ball away.”
You can tell it just kills Baker to throw the ball away. That is just something he wants no part of.
I hope he gets over it before he kills us or himself.
Doesn’t want to hurt his completion percentage. Nah, he’s just a big time competitor. Did anyone else see how quick he bounced up after getting knocked out of bounds? He was instantly back at the los screaming for guys to get set.
I may get beat up on this but I’m starting to wonder if Baker is padding his stats by not throwing it away. He will take a loss instead of throwing it away cause I in his mind he’s thinking, no big deal I can make it back up. Riley has struggled with the 2nd Q all year.
Didn’t get to see the game live, but watching it now. Love seeing the big play capability return to the offense this year. I don’t think any other team out there has as much dual ability to hit the long ball downfield and pound the rock as do the Sooners.
Is there anybody besides me that is getting tired of hearing Dabo Swinney?
Who names their kid “Dabo”?
I am not familiar with the name, but I guess that is better than Moonbeam. 🙂
Whenever I hear his name I think of Brylcreem.
https://youtu.be/o6F4GtyRfto
“A little dab will do ya!”
Funny. I’d forgotten all about that commercial.
I know a little dab goes a long way. He’s a whipping.
If I remember correctly you’re in Ohio? You should go check out dixie sometime. Very different place, and everyone is named Dabo.
Yes. I am in Ohio. By “dixie” do you mean dictionary? I have not heard that name up hear. I’ve been in Ohio since 1995.
I’m thinking by “dixie” he is meaning, “The South,” southern states.
Yeah I don’t capitalize it, my family all died in blue.
He is originally from Georgia.
Thats funny because I’m almost positive SW Georgia is where the name Dabo originated.
Didn’t hear it there either. And, I’m from the SW Georgia area.
It’s because that was your name. “Ya hear Dabo moved off to Ohio?”
I was wondering that same thing the other day. Sounds like a Flintstone’s character.
Dado and Momo
Dabo is a nickname. William is his real name.
You’re kidding, right? William Swinney. Bill Swinney. Uh, stick with Dabo.
No, William is his real name. Read the story on it once, I think an older brother gave it to him.
Looked him up, Clemson HC. William Christopher Swinney. I may be stretching here, but I guess that you watch ESecPN regularly. Change the channel or pick up a good book. Refuse to play into the ruse that ESecPN is preaching.:-) I refuse to watch ESecPN unless the Sooners are playing on it, or another specific game I want to watch. Will not put myself through the SEC is holier than Christ himself nonsense.
I hate ESPiN. I was walking past while my son was watching it. I saw Dabo yelling some silliness, trying his best to market Clemson.
I rarely, if ever, watch ESPiN.
I like OUr chances at Baylor. I wonder what the O/U is on that game.
I know who we’ve beaten the past four games. However, we have been absolutely dominant and are rolling. Our defense is salty. I really, really like our chances down the stretch. – Capt. Obvious
ah, the re-punt…….
