Oregon has played 5 guys at LG/RG through 2 games. And none of the 5 are their two five star freshman.

The two new OTs have given up 16 pressures and 5 sacks.

What a disaster

Texas had no answer to OSU’s defensive pressure for the first three quarters. Then Day called off the dogs and sat back in a soft zone, which immediately let the Longhorns back in game. Why not start dialing up pressure again when they cut the lead down to 6? Coaching malpractice. Day is a fraud.

It's crazy because I have no idea how good of a coach Day is. He has an elite winning percentage and a national title. He's the active leader in winning percentage and if he holds up he would be in the top 2 or 3 all time in that category. Yet, he consistently makes terrible decisions in big games, and his resume feels light all things considered, he could easily have another two titles or so.

That's my big takeaway. He rode Urban's coattails a bit to a cushy gig, and he has done a fantastic job keeping recruiting rolling, but OSU has just one title to show for it and it came at our expense when we were missing 1/3 of our starters. With the crazy amount of talent they have, Day should be in the middle of a Saban-like dynasty right now and yet he's just got the one title.

So between Sarkisian's weird post-game bailing on post-game interview with Holly Rowe and this bizarre behavior post-game press conference and that glazed look, Sark absolutely does not look (and I mean physically look) right or well.

I hope he isn't hitting or doesn't hit the sauce again. I really think he was either very sleep stressed, super stressed out, or something else is going on.

And Arch's immediate post-game interview seemed to have picked up on that energy as his deep, direct gaze into the camera while answering Laura Rutledge's questions was similarly bizarre.

Not sure what is going on in Austin, but that kind of emotional volatility (last night, it was like the whole world - in a very paranoid way - is against the 'horns kind of sentiment) IMO is gonna kill them and it's going to be a rough season for the team.

They let Texas back into that game just like they let us back into the Natty in 2024. Not to discredit our boys but Ohio State let us back into that game to some degree, Texas just squeeked out a win while we couldn't quite get there.

White nationalists will tell you that they aren't racist. That they are only concerned about a "loss of culture" or a "failure to assimilate". Then they have the most predictable reaction imaginable to brown skinned young people wearing cowboy hats and screaming at football game.

White nationalists don't even like football so its odd they are mad at some indian students going to the game together.

If having a bunch of brown kids wearing cowboy hats and screaming at a football game isn't evidence of proper assimulation into American culture, I don't what else would count.

- Not that breaking down “38 Spy” is groundbreaking stuff but Meyer’s B1G Network film breakdowns are sneaky a great watch

- How the fuck is OUs OL that bad. OU message boards gotta hate Bedenbaugh now right? He’s been fielding abysmal OLs for years now

You can take the Oklahoma out of the Big 12, but you can't take the Big 12 out of the Oklahoma defense...or something like that :laugh:

I think health is brought up for being a factor for Oklahoma’s O-line being terrible lately. At least that’s what I take from info around the area.
