Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Happy Friday!

Unfortunately, at the times when many of us are at our highest those struggling feel even worse. If any of you are struggling hopefully this reminds you better days are ahead.

September 20, 2024: Quiet your soul. Refuse to overreact to your circumstances. What you have been going through was momentary and not a dreadful trend. You will come through this time with greater understanding and resolve. You have been tested and found to be worthy. 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Oklahoma possibly could have been 1-2 going into this game. Houston threw an interception early in the 4th quarter on Oklahoma's 21 yard line. In the Tulane game, with 8 minutes left in the 4th and only down by 5. Tulane went for it on 4 and 1 on their own 35 and threw an interception, which lead to a Oklahoma touchdown on a short field.

To add to this, one of Oklahoma's TD's against Houston came after Houston fumbled a punt on their own 10 yard line.

Here are some Oklahoma offensive stats

44 percent of their offensive possession have resulted with a punt

They are only converting in 30 percent of their 3rd downs

Only 31 percent of their offensive possession have resulted in touchdowns

The 3rd down conversion splits are insane. Especislly when you consider who they played and that they played all theirs at home.

So it was Ohtani's fault because Marlins had a position player pitching when he batted in the 9th inning?

I’ve heard Pate and Herbstreit make similar comments. I’m paraphrasing here, “If Tennessee is elite, they go into Norman and get the win. Elite teams win those games.”

I think we could be elite but it’s hard to tell from our competition so far. If we get the win then the playoff talk starts to really feel real.

I think they are great
Elite? Probably not but what team is this year
I think numerous teams can win it this year with what I e seen through a few weeks

The logo on the helmet had the first three games won before we kicked off which is good and means we’re getting back to where we once were.

That logo won’t win this weekend but the talent we have now will

If the guys show like there heads are on fire and asses are catching we win going away

Don’t you even try. You’re living a life that most of us are envious of. Enjoy the ‘ride’ and catch up with us when you can and pictures go along way. 🙂. Oh tell your mutt loving (sorry for that) hubby, we’re coming.

It must be rough to have to keep your husband muzzled in the RV so he isn’t constantly barking…or maybe she uses a bark collar? 😇

Sorry @SmokinBob , I couldn’t resist 😊
