Dave: No sugar coating — this team is bad right now, until Gabriel makes return
Now I guess we know how it felt to be texas fans when OU was handing them 65-13 and 63-14 beat downs.
But at the very least we can take solace in the fact that we are NOT, in fact, actual texas fans.
I can’t imagine… It’s pretty thin times for Oklahoma Football right now. In some ways historically thin.
But I am sure you have heard all the stats and streaks that have been broken or started during the last three games. No real need to re-hash it all here. There’s no sugar coating it. We are just a bad football team right now.
I do think that Brent, given time, will get it turned around. It just depends on if Joe C. will give him that time. I mean John Blake got three years.
But that was almost 25 years ago. College football is much different now. The money is fatter and the patience is thinner.
I think Joe will do the right thing and give Brent the time he needs. However there needs to be visible improvement pretty quickly. Like this year.
Oklahoma’s downward spiral continues with 49-0 shutout by Longhorns
Using your tight end to run a Wildcat offense was the right early game plan to put a spark in an Oklahoma offense hampered by the absence of a concussed starting quarterback.
It did that early, although the Sooners were unable to turn it into points.
But by the second quarter in the Cotton Bowl that unique twist became an all too predictable act of desperation, which was no solution for a porous defense Texas hammered with 49 unanswered points in the Red Rivery Rivalry.
Texas (4-2, 2-1 Big 12) won 49-0. And the failure of Oklahoma (3-3, 0-3) on both sides of the ball extended on the sideline and well into the coache’s booth of the press box.
Oklahoma allowed the most points ever to the Longhorns. The defeat marks OU’s first loss to the Longhorns since 2018 and improves Texas’ lead in the all-time series to 63-50-5.
