    Dillon Gabriel is a Sooner

    While the tendencies you point out (some poor decisions, trying too much for the deep ball, relying too much on his legs...) are accurate, Caleb Williams led the Big XII and was #6 in the nation in Passing Efficiency, so his play was a little better than average. I understand that OU has a high...

    Dillon Gabriel is a Sooner

    That 2002 Washington State team was better than you remember. Even after OU kicked their butts, they finished the year ranked #10 in the polls. Their only other losses were on the road to the eventual national champs (Ohio State) and a triple OT loss in a rivalry game to Washington. As for Hybl...

    Stoops has 3 in Superbowl

    In the conference Championship games, between the 4 teams, Bob had 6 I believe (Westbrook, Colvin, Lane Johnson, Bradford, Blake Bell, & Grissom). Not too shabby...

    Young goes for 43 Pts, 11 Rbs, 7 Asts

    OU vs WV

    Yeah, I didn't have high hopes for this game, as I thought it was a perfect storm to defeat this OU squad: - Best defensive team in the country. - A defensive style we had not seen yet, let alone to the level of excellence they run that press. - The best defensive player in the country just...

    Next season I would like to see duel OU QBs. Both Kyler Murray & Austin Kendall

    What coach/program has had success using dual QBs? The last time someone tried it that I recall was Urban Meyer in 2015 with JT Barrett and Cardale Jones. It was an unmitigated failure. Again. And what's "claporing"? Did you mean clamouring? Probably shouldn't insult the intelligence of...

    Trae with 39 Pts & 14 Asts in road win against #10

    But not a separate Forum. This is the an all sports message board, and, in my opinion, we as a fan base are not as pumped as we should be for this squad. Not a new development. Not that I think it should be equal. I get that football is a bigger deal. But the sheer, stark difference in...

    Trae with 39 Pts & 14 Asts in road win against #10

    You're correct. My bad. I did miss that 1 other thread with 3 whole posts on it... I don't ignore anyone. That's still a lack of talking about this team and it's unbelievable star player and what they are accomplishing this year.

    Trae with 39 Pts & 14 Asts in road win against #10

    OU beat the #10 team in the country, on the road, and not a single thread about the game until my thread here. I'd say that = a lack of OU fans talking about the team. Can you imagine a football game where OU won on the road against #10 team in the country and not having hundreds of posts (not...

    Did anyone else think...

    I get your point, but how does one really judge any of that without actually watching teams play? The margin of defeat in the Ohio St. vs Iowa game was a pretty accurate reflection of how the game really went. The coaches clearly did not have the players prepared, and the players were just...

    While enjoying this moment ...

    Not offering the reigning Big XII Freshman of the Year, who's already on your team, a scholarship is not one of the dumbest decisions in college football history? He had already proven his ability to play at a high level for that school as a True Freshman, and he did his damage from the start...

    Did anyone else think...

    Huh? OU was up 17-16 at halftime, and even the final score (38-17) wasn't even close to one of the worst defeats in the short history of the CFP. Remember, the CFP has produced semifinals with scores of: 38-0, 31-0, & 59-20.

    While enjoying this moment ...

    I understand your point, but it kind of makes it sound like you think he would have been a bum if he stayed/played at a lesser school like Tech. As a True Freshman, he won Big XII Offensive Freshman of the Year, so I think he still would have been a very good player wherever he ended up. His...
