      The roar of “ou sucks” chants is music to my ears. They are sucking a little more than I anticipated

      RRS is always one of those “throw the records out” games. Neither team ever looks truly comfortable in Fair Park, but both of them are chock full of highly-recruited DFW kids trying to show each other up with a ton of friends and family there.

      What’s wrong with Ewers. He missed 2 wide-open receivers for sure TDs. Are you sure his injury wasn’t to his head?

        Looks like he’s trying to play too quickly and is missing reads (probably doesn’t want to take too many hits). I had a hunch he would be like this, but more so that Sark’s aggressive play calling is not doing him any favors – I usually love that, but this actually ticks me off a lot that he doesn’t dial it back in situations like this where he should be just trying to ease Ewers in.

          No, he was out of sorts. It was his mechanics. just not setting his feet properly, and he wasn’t seeing the game. So Sark gave him simple throws to make the rest of the half which was real smart. 2nd half he settled down and remembered how to throw the ball.

      Fumble into the end zone to recover for a touchdown! Exactly how we drew it up. Not stressed about nearly causing a touchback at all, nope

      ou misses their field goal! The “yet to trail this season” streak lives on a little longer

        I think we’ve had them for about 10 years or so. It’s a little gimmicky but I like it

      I don’t mind Horns-down as a hand-sign at all. Texas schools having hand-signs they’re overly attached to is just kind of a thing, and it’s ripe for mockery. Where it gets cringe is commissioning custom jewelry, like the OU staffer the broadcast just showed. Or maybe worse, if it’s not custom, and you’re literally putting money in the pocket of Roller-Derby UT.

      Also, a team that fumbles shouldn’t be allowed to benefit from the ball having rolled forward. Just feels bad, man.

        I don’t mind much either. Same thing with holstering the Texas Tech guns – it’s just having a bit of fun with the old SWC hand signs. But non-SWC teams doing the hand signs feels kind of lame
