Interesting Oklahoma Perspective

[VOLociraptorr]

The guys from the Schooner Pod said that we would have performed better offensively if the game wasn't in primetime.

They said their defense was gassed and all the commercial breaks really helped.

It also helped when they faked injuries.

The other reason they got tired was watching their offense be completely futile. Having a good to great offense AND defense is very rare. And they most definitely affect each other.

I could tell they were gassed by all the flopping

When Herbstreit calls you pathetic, it’s bad. He would prefer everyone to love the game as much as he.

That grass was very ….. supportive!

They obviously studied the Florida game from last year!

It won’t be long before there are more commercials than football. Takes a lot of the fun away for the viewer.

I also noticed a lot of slipping on the grass for both teams. Not a good field for a big program.

The game lasted about 3 hours. One hour playing time and 2 hours of commercials. It was ridiculous!

Despite the below, we still won!!!

1) The field was in terrible shape. I have never seen so many slips/falls.... Not even in snowy conditions. Actually, that may have contributed to their own injuries.
2) The refs were terrible. That last roughing the QB was one of the worst calls that I have seen this year. They also zapped us several times anytime we touched an OK player.
3) The embarrassing flopping, #95 in particular.... even Herbstreit called it out...saying it was unethical.
4) One reason we did not score as much is because OK Defense was good, but they also admitted to changing their defensive structure just for us, and they were contemplating it since January.

It was a well-deserved victory for UT!!!

Yea I lost a lot of respect for Venables after that nonsense. I'm sure i'm the minority on this, but it just doesn't sit well with me when a coach deliberately coaches a kid to lie to gain an advantage.....in any form, but especially to fake an injury.

Having a good run game is huge for the defense

I try not to be one-sided, but I really couldn't remember one time that an Oklahoma players slipped on cuts like our did.

Well, unless you count slipping between plays....

I have a hard time seeing how any offense keeps any kind of rhythm.

Holy bad karma Batman !!
But I admit I laughed .

We do the same thing, just saying.

I'm interested to see how Oklahoma does vs Auburn. That should be a low scoring game. Very low.

Bro we fake injuries on the extra point every time we score too fast.

I think Oklahoma wins pretty soundly. Even though I don't think Hawkins was that great, they will be more confident offensively with him. Auburn's D isn't that great and I think Oklahoma has a good defense. I think Oklahoma shuts them down and scores ~20-30 points to win a 30-7 or something like that type of game.

 

[wmcovol]

OU will get introduced to playing SEC games in Alabama. Refs will keep it close. I’d say 0u 20-17. Auburn is bad.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

There has to be something done about these "injuries"

I mean we do it on extra points all the time. I get your point it definitely effects play more when it’s in the middle of a drive. When we do it it’s to rest the defense; really think Heupel started doing this bc everyone else was doing it as well.

I didn’t think Auburn can score against them, at least not enough to win the game.
