Agree it looks like it should have gone outside but Ott literally did nothing on that play

Bc burks took the chance away from him

That's not true. Unless you think its ok to just stand there and wait for the guy you are going to block to come to you. Be aggressive

Nevermind. I saw the all22 and ott didn't do anything wrong

Also, if any of you follow Kegan Reneau on X/Twitter, he does a really good job of actually breaking down the games. I think he showed that Mateer missed a lot of open stuff Saturday and we actually had a lot of opportunities to punish Texas had he been mentally sharp.

I’ve heard that from multiple sources. In some ways that alleviates the worry about the system in general. BUT, if Mateer was that bad they should have put in Hawkins. You know, the guy that actually practiced the weeks leading up to the game. Maybe he connects on some of those. Just bad coaching any way you look at it.

I’m sure he’s sick of DM and the clueless rotations

or he would like to maximize his earning .. when the NFL doesn't look like it is really his future .. and UNLV (or where ever) is a nice 6 figure paycheck next season .

that is what college sports now is

i saw it as well and i disagree .. he looked totally lost and looked like he wanted to avoid contact ..

Sexton, Howland, Taylor, and Simmons were supposed to be our 2 deep at OT. They’re all out. Now, I don’t think we should’ve been counting on Taylor but the rest were supposed to be “healthy”. Fasusi is still nursing an ankle and baklenko was an emergency depth piece that’s played decent. I know Wichita refuses to believe in injuries but if you don’t think that makes a difference, you’re being willfully obtuse.

Sexton and Taylor -- may as well be Trent Williams and Lane Johnson lol.

They are just average at best. We have seen enough of them to know that. And it's wild to suggest Fasusi wouldn't have made the two-deep. And the ankle is, you guessed it, an excuse. He played against Kent freaking State. They held out two defensive starters that game because they didn't want to risk playing guys who weren't healthy. The fact that we played Fasusi against the worst team in the country says all you need to know about how that ankle is.

You know who was missing two starting lineman Saturday? USC. Shoved it down Michigan's throat.

Missing 2 lineman? I just listed 4 OT that were supposed to play 75-80% of snaps this year…gone. I also forgot to mention everett at center. You’re just willingly obtuse because you hate Brent and you’re overly critical of all things OU in football and basketball. Why are you here if you can’t stand anything OU?

31 points vs 24 points. Stop acting like they scored 50.

So we were going to have four tackles on the field? Interesting. Also, you’re just wrong. Go back to Michigan week. Every person who covers the team was saying, this is our group: these are the five guys we want to have starting. That’s the same group who started against Kent St and Texas. And Everett lost his job before he got hurt.

I’m here to bug you and make you feel better about yourself since you think you’re a superior fan. You and Coach and the like can pat each other on the back for being the kind of fans who won’t see reality and accept when a coach does a crappy job. Commence circle jerk.

Offense is a problem....and it's both scheme and personnel. Mateer, when he is "on", can mask a lot of those deficiencies. However, when your line isn't physical and you have absolutely no difference-makers at the skill positions, then your ceiling is going to be very limited against this schedule. Stop asking our TEs to block DEs because they can't.....for various reasons. If you're going to try and run, your best chance is probably out of 10 personnel (4 WRs, 0 TEs)....and maybe Blaylock can find a seam or get outside on occasion. Other than that, they are just going to have to use the short pass as an extension of the running game.

DM and JJF need to be sent packing. I'm going to wait and see with BB, but if we don't show significant improvement by game 12, we need to move in another direction there as well.
