Official Game Thread: OU vs OSU (2011)

[kenth68]

maybe bv's scheme is to let blackmon tire himself out catching passes in the first half

[soonercastor]

We need to settle the fuc down, the way to do that is a long time draining drive next time we're on O.

[OU_Sooners75]

Weeden throws an incompletion.

heh

[instigator]

We have completely abandoned the run. :(

No kidding. I know Finch can't take the beating, so how about we get Williams in the game before the 4th quarter??

[oumartin]

Venables is the best DC in america

[BB37]

Good stop, finally. FG coming up.

[VA Sooner]

Great coverage by Travis Lewis... kept the TD out.

[agoo758]

Nice hold. It certainly helps us when they don't have the middle of the field.

[bluedogok]

why do they keep saying venables will get a head coaching job?
Some coaches are better coordinators than head coaches, some coordinators could be better head coaches than coordinators.
Maybe they are thinking like that.

[LiveLaughLove]

good play defensively that time.

[jcvsooner]

Held 'em to a field goal attempt. Thankfully.

Settle down and get back in this game, Sooners.

[instigator]

Nelson is too small to a be a DE.

Yep. They sealed his side on the first TD.

[StoopTroup]

OMG....Defense held?

[tulsaoilerfan]

Well could be worse lol

[BigTip]

moral victory. (facetious)

[OU_Sooners75]

10-0.

Hmm....unless we somehow somewhere find a defense...OU is done for!

[AlboSooner]

Hey at least we have French paintings.

[Keller Sooner]

We've always had a hole in the middle of our D since Brent V took over.

[soonercastor]

Alright we need points.

[LiveLaughLove]

OK thats about as far ahead as we can let them get.

Our O needs to answer now.

The bad weather is on the way. Points could get real hard to come by in a little bit for both sides.

[OU_Sooners75]

OMG....Defense held?

OMG...they allowed OSU to gain 70 yards and allowed points.

[landrun]

OMG....Defense held?
Well I guess they did. If you consider giving up an 80 yard scoring drive as a defensive hold.

.... No wonder you love Venables.

[Judge Smails]

Weeden 8/10 115

[soonercoop1]

Held em to 3.....better

[LVSOONER15]

I think Weeden had 11 minutes in the pocket on that last play

Seems like that every play.

[IBleedCrimson]

lets get some points. they are badly needed

[wishbonesooner]

Looking clueless is this team's legacy.

[colhu7]

10-0.

Hmm....unless we somehow somewhere find a defense...OU is done for!

How about an offense???? nothing like 3 and outs that take 10 seconds off the clock

[XFollower]

I'm sorry, I've tried to be level headed but... I HATE THE FREAKING POKES. That's all.

[StoopTroup]

LMAO@that Sounthern Miss Trophy. Those guys look like they just beat LSU

[OU_Sooners75]

Well I guess they did. If you consider giving up an 80 yard scoring drive as a defensive hold.

.... No wonder you love Venables.

To him it is all about touchdowns....FGs don't count.

[AlboSooner]

Landry will take over nao. Lol

[BB37]

Possible injured ref.

[oumartin]

OMG we ran the ball... 10 points to late

[baja okla]

We are Toast.

[Red]

More. Brandon. Williams. Please.

[jcvsooner]

First down. Nice little RAC by Stills.

[StoopTroup]

How about an offense???? nothing like 3 and outs that take 10 seconds off the clock

Yeah right now our Offense really needs to score. The Defense just showed they can hold. Now all they need to do is calm down on Def. and start doing it as a 3 and out.

[instigator]

More. Brandon. Williams. Please.

^^^^^THIS!

[soonercastor]

OL OL OL

[jcvsooner]

Brandon Williams stopped at the line. No blocking there.

Let's go, SOONERS!

[oumartin]

Wow, did we block anyone?

[BB37]

Good pass to Millard, first down.

[BigTip]

good protection

[StoopTroup]

Millard!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

nice job millard

[soonercastor]

Nice blitz pick up

[LiveLaughLove]

Good blitz pick up. Good pass and catch.

[oumartin]

Did you see Williams pick up that blitz? Awesome

[jcvsooner]

First down to Millard!

LJ looks like he's settling down a bit.

Keep working the running game.

[VA Sooner]

Getting rhythm back...

[AlboSooner]

Leave Bw and Millard in there

[nighttrain12]

I thought tie went to the offense

It wasn't a tie. The Aggie receiver clearly had it.

[BB37]

Holding on Stephenson.

[jcvsooner]

Did you see Williams pick up that blitz? Awesome

Indeed.

[LiveLaughLove]

Holding

[StoopTroup]

Yeah I'd have to say Williams should be getting some more snaps. Finch isn't doing very well so far.

[soonercastor]

LJ has been off on these throws the past few games.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

holding... its what happens when you cant stop the rush....;)

[VA Sooner]

Holding penalty

[LiveLaughLove]

What is that crappy looking football emblem on Stoops chest around the OU?

[BB37]

End of Q1.

[VA Sooner]

OU d-line getting lots of penetration... screen pass almost worked.

[jcvsooner]

Finch slipped again. 1st quarter is over.

[soonercastor]

3rd and long, not good. That screen was awful.

[soon3rfan]

I think LJ is a eunuch

[kenth68]

1 down

[StoopTroup]

I wouldn't mind if the NCAA outlawed those Paddles being beaten on the side of the wall.

[Judge Smails]

What was the score after the 1st qtr last year???

[landrun]

So, after the first quarter, does OSU's defense still suck and ours is still GREAT!! ??? :offended:

[BigTip]

What is that crappy looking football emblem on Stoops chest around the OU?
Ornge riibbon?

[wishbonesooner]

Our O line looks like a jr. high team. WTH

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

1 step forward, two steps back.....we loook uninspired and unoriginal....this is hard to watch

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

This may be the worst game I've ever seen out of Lewis. Meeting ball carriers 4-5 yards downfield, blowing coverage on that long drag route. If he and Wort don't start playing better we are toast.

[landrun]

I think LJ is a eunuch
If so, I wish the sharks played as good as the eunuch does. There is no single player on the D that is as good at their position as Landry is at his.

[nighttrain12]

I think LJ is a eunuch

Whitney says you are wrong. I'll take her word for it.

[LiveLaughLove]

Ornge riibbon?

Not the ribbon. That big gawdy emblem diminishing the great interlocking OU. That thing sucks.

[wishbonesooner]

I just don't get a team ranked #1 at the start of the season, and this is about the 4th or 5th game they look like they could care less.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

what would the pokes be like if they lost blackmon, randle, and their best DE???

[AlboSooner]

Not impressed by Josh's playcalling.
He pulls out Millard and BW, to revert to texas tech package.

[colhu7]

This may be the worst game I've ever seen out of Lewis. Meeting ball carriers 4-5 yards downfield, blowing coverage on that long drag route. If he and Wort don't start playing better we are toast.

dont want to talk bad about a player but Lewis has regressed overall the past 2 years.

[StoopTroup]

I think LJ is a eunuch

Whitney hand says you left a tampon on her floor mats when you valeted her car.

http://frathousesports.com/wp-content/uploads/Whitney-Hand-Lanry-Jones-Dating-Picture.jpg

[cccasooner2]

What is that crappy looking football emblem on Stoops chest around the OU?

I think it's a fire Venables ankh.

[BB37]

aggy offside.

[jcvsooner]

That's going to be offsides. Would have been nice if we'd gotten that first down, though ...

[GrapevineSooner]

Wait. An employee of ESPN just admitted the LHN had something to do with Texas A&M leaving?

[StoopTroup]

This may be the worst game I've ever seen out of Lewis. Meeting ball carriers 4-5 yards downfield, blowing coverage on that long drag route. If he and Wort don't start playing better we are toast.

Agreed. I went back to look what the D did when aggie scored the TD. He is killing us.

[instigator]

What was the score after the 1st qtr last year???

7-3 Good guys.

[Soonrs]

The theme of this year: make horrible defenses look great and good offenses look even better.

[BB37]

Dropped. That's been a familiar story since RB went out.

[BigTip]

I miss Broyles

[AlboSooner]

Always behind the guy

[IBleedCrimson]

we really needed that catch

[jcvsooner]

Yeah, we miss Mr. Broyles.

[soonercastor]

Dejuan with another drop. Come on boy!

[oumartin]

wheres the pass interference, he tackled him before the ball got there

[kenth68]

not catching the ball... oy vey

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

no leadership...

[Keller Sooner]

We sure miss Broyles. We are leaking oil on offense and defense.

[jcvsooner]

Always behind the guy

Should've been caught.

[soonercastor]

wait what was that penalty?

[AlboSooner]

Always behind the guy

Should've been caught.
Should've been thrown in front of him.

[VA Sooner]

We got a break.... the penalties need to rack up on our side until Miller warms up and can hold on to the ball... very cold out there. I see Broyles on the sideline... he looks like he wants to suit up.

[landrun]

The theme of this year: make horrible defenses look great and good offenses look even better.

What team have you been watching?? We haven't lost a single game this year because of the offense. You're looking at the wrong side of the ball.

[CarolinaSoonerFan]

THIS SUCKS

[Sooner5030]

well at least we have an O problem instead of a D problem.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

well, thats one way to get a first down! we have an oppotunity here, lets hope that we can capitalize on it....lets go ****ers!!!!! PLAY OKLAHOMA FOOTBALL AND KICK SOME POKE ***!!!!!

[wishbonesooner]

I guess if we make OSU look really good we'll have the pleasure of seeing LSU rape and pillage them.

[oumartin]

obviously the commentators have no clue about the penalties.

[colhu7]

no leadership...

No Identity. What do we excel at??? Running alot of plays???

[One4OU]

Is every ball going to be thrown behind the receiver? It must be windy again..

[BB37]

wait what was that penalty?

Holding on aggy during the kick. Backs them up to the 10 on the next possession.

[XFollower]

I miss Ryan.

[landrun]

OSU wanted a 90 yard scoring drive rather than another 80 yard scoring drive. :excitement:

[Fiatil]

Love that slow mo replay of huge cushion in the middle for their best receiver; hard not to catch that pass!

[soonercastor]

Need a BIG play on D

[jcvsooner]

Should've been thrown in front of him.

He didn't have a throwing lane to lead him much, if at all. It was a tad behind him, but put in a place where it easily should have been caught. LJ's had some down moments tonight, but that wasn't one of them.

[BB37]

Incomplete. 3rd and 8 at the 12.

[kenth68]

gotta love that determination to get to the quarterback

[Sooner5030]

blitz

plz thnx

[Keller Sooner]

Hold on D.

[jcvsooner]

3rd and long. Come on, Sooners.

[soonercastor]

3rd and long come on!

We didn't bite on the play action. yay

[landrun]

TL makes a play!!!

[AlboSooner]

3 and 8. Great tackle by TL

[BB37]

Good stop for the D. 4th and 8, aggy has to punt.

[VA Sooner]

OU defense getting warmed up... nice stop... three and out!

[instigator]

Tlew made the tackle?? ;)

[One4OU]

We need a td now!!!!!!

[soonercastor]

Very good tackle

[colhu7]

well #28 made a play. keep it up

[wishbonesooner]

3 and out? I remember OU doing that back in the 70's.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

LEWIS ACTUALLY RAN DOWN AND WRAPPED UP!!!

[oumartin]

hey, jkm, why don't you dog on t lewis some more.. he just made a great play.

[soonercastor]

Short field, let's make the best of this. Come on!

[LiveLaughLove]

Great stop by the D. Now we need a freaking score!

[landrun]

As a constant BV basher, I want to go on record saying that was great defensive stand.

Stoop... THAT... was a stop. :)

[Soonerus]

Finch has no carries ???

[IBleedCrimson]

I don't understand why we don't go for the ball on those kicks. Stills can always call a fair catch if we dont get it.

[Keller Sooner]

C'mon Josh! Dial something up.

[AlboSooner]

Should've been thrown in front of him.

He didn't have a throwing lane to lead him much, if at all. It was a tad behind him, but put in a place where it easily should have been caught. LJ's had some down moments tonight, but that wasn't one of them.
I concede the point to you.

[dennis580]

Not impressed by Josh's playcalling.
He pulls out Millard and BW, to revert to texas tech package.

We need to try to establish the running game.

[soonercoop1]

wow they decided to run and not pass...keeping us in the game...

[VA Sooner]

Heupel probably going through his notes and his list of what's working and what's not....

[Tiptonsooner]

As a constant BV basher, I want to go on record saying that was great defensive stand.

Stoop... THAT... was a stop. :)

Blind hogs and dogs asses and all that...........

[Soonerus]

Great defense !!!

[StoopTroup]

OU defense getting warmed up... nice stop... three and out!

Yup. That series where we held them to a FG.....There was a huge adjustments by Venables.

Just in case the Haters missed it.

[nighttrain12]

What team have you been watching?? We haven't lost a single game this year because of the offense. You're looking at the wrong side of the ball.

It hurt us in the Tech game where we were trailing 31-7 early 3rd quarter.

[instigator]

I don't understand why we don't go for the ball on those kicks. Stills can always call a fair catch if we dont get it.

Seems like we never go for a block anymore. Or maybe we just never get close.

Stills isn't much of a returner anyway. He usually falls down at the first cut.

[VA Sooner]

Finch has no carries ???


I thought that was strange too.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

we need to dig deep in our bag of tricks and dial up some good **** here. fuc these sheephumpers! we game them a head start, now its time to step on their throats and curb check these mother****ers!!! lets go offense!!

[jcvsooner]

We need to try to establish the running game.

Agreed -- we were starting to do it last drive, until the penalty put us behind behind the 8-ball at 2nd and 17.

[S.PadreIsl.Sooner]

Need some points!

[StoopTroup]

As a constant BV basher, I want to go on record saying that was great defensive stand.

Stoop... THAT... was a stop. :)

Also....not the first one this year.

[VA Sooner]

Stills with a great first down catch.

[nighttrain12]

Finch has no carries ???

18 passes, 4 rushes for the offense before this drive started.

[jcvsooner]

First down to Stills.

Yes, he's capable.

[BB37]

There's Finch for 6.

[wishbonesooner]

OSU has holes in their D too, if we could just hold on to the ball.

[VA Sooner]

Finch with 6 yards on his first carry.

[soonercastor]

Finch good gain on first

[jcvsooner]

Finch for five on first down.

[nighttrain12]

There's Finch for 6.

There ya go Rus!

[VA Sooner]

Trey Franks with the self-tackle for a loss of 1

[soonercastor]

wow

[StoopTroup]

Time for the Offense to put it on aggie.

[BB37]

Franks falls down and loses 2, 3rd and 7.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

the turf has tackled us more than anyone

[colhu7]

Franks must never has his shoes tied cause hes always trippin over himself

[instigator]

JAZZ HANDS!

[jcvsooner]

First down. Nice catch, Jaz.

Really needed that first down.

[wishbonesooner]

Nice one Jaz

[soonercastor]

Nice play LJ-Jaz

[VA Sooner]

Jaz with an incredible catch for first down... and he used both hands!

[BB37]

Good pass to Jaz, first down.

[bluedogok]

Franks and his self-tacklization woes.....

[BigTip]

sweet

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

nice catch Jaz 1st down

[colhu7]

nice pass by LJ!

[BigTip]

whew

[VA Sooner]

Held my breath on that one... tipped pass by Reynolds and almost picked off by OSU.

[soonercastor]

ugh off Jaz' hand, almost INTed

[wishbonesooner]

I think LJ got lucky that wasn't an INT

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

good coverage.. almost another int

[BB37]

3rd and long again.

[instigator]

Need. Points. Now!

[StoopTroup]

Nice catch by jaz and nice throw by landry.

[AlboSooner]

Wow Josh. Really?

[soonercastor]

3rd and very long again

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

.. wtf?

[soon3rfan]

Just Belldoze it!

[instigator]

****

[BB37]

Punt time.

[BigTip]

who's fault was that?

[Fiatil]

How I catch ball?

[VA Sooner]

High to Miller... and he drops another...

[colhu7]

catch the damn ball

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

LJ overthrows again

[LiveLaughLove]

Get Miller out of the freaking game!

[wishbonesooner]

That's OSU playing defense not LSU. We're making them look good.

[jcvsooner]

3rd and 14 after dropping four on a screen pass.

Then an incompletion high over the middle. Fourth down. Dang it.

[soonercastor]

LJ the past 3 games and these throws. What started this? He's been throwing high a lot lately

[StoopTroup]

Ball Hawking 107th in the Nation aggie defense?

[BigTip]

behind behind behind. Always his missed throws are behind

[marfacowboy]

Whatever. We couldn't catch a cold. Our receivers are playing like ****.

[VA Sooner]

Belldoze for four yards every down and work your way down the field.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Get Miller out of the freaking game!

the throw was worse than the no catch

[AlboSooner]

Wow Dejuan "beast mode" Miller

[IBleedCrimson]

D.Miller.... can you catch an important 3rd down... please

[colinreturn]

Why aren't they running the god damn ****ing ball holy **** this is dumbfounding

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

I always laugh when people talk about our talent advantage and then you watch the other team blanketing our #2 and #3 receivers in coverage while our dbs aren't fast enough to keep up with #2 and #3 receivers.

[tulsaoilerfan]

Run the ****ing ball!!!

[Keller Sooner]

Damn!

[Soonerus]

I like Dejuan a lot but he is killing us...

[StoopTroup]

There is why Miller wasn't starting.

[misplaced_sooner]

When did Roy Williams from Texas start playing for us? Miller can't catch a cold right now.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

just when i thought we were gaining some mo....

[Sooner5030]

if both hand touch it then it should be caught

on the other hand.....why our we so dam stubborn to throw the outside short on early downs instead of the 8-12 yard over the middle?

[wishbonesooner]

Maybe because our O line is like the 7 blocks of silly putty?

[IBleedCrimson]

That was a brutal drop. Just brutal. No points off short field.

[EatLeadCommie]

Really missing Broyles and Ronnell tonight.

[CarolinaSoonerFan]

We need slower receivers that way Jones can hit them in stride

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

oour D has had two good series, but at this rate, they are gonna get worn down

[dennis580]

Its time for Dejuan Miller to have a pernament seat on the bench

[soonercastor]

Need another good defensive series

[LVSOONER15]

Miller cannot catch.

[VA Sooner]

Need a pick 6

[colhu7]

oh hell not Frank

[jcvsooner]

Another third and long. Shut 'em down, Sooners!

And Frank Alexander getting looked at again.

[VA Sooner]

Can't get any pressure on Weeden

[colhu7]

seriously D

[soonercastor]

DAMN

[jcvsooner]

We need a turnover.

Remember when we used to force turnovers? That was always pretty cool.

[VA Sooner]

Tom Wort on the sidelines... shin stinger

[instigator]

Nice Fleming!

[jcvsooner]

There's a nice defensive play on the screen pass. Third and 7 coming up ...

[soonercastor]

beautiful play Flemming

[VA Sooner]

Great cover by Fleming and a tackle for loss

[LVSOONER15]

We need a stop!!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

whens the last time we had a sack??? or an int?

[instigator]

We need a turnover.

Remember when we used to force turnovers? That was always pretty cool.

I think we used them all up already. :)

[StoopTroup]

Can't get any pressure on Weeden

Landry is getting more time than Weeden. Still....Landry needs everyone of those guys to catch the ball if it's in their hands.

[hs4725]

And exit Wort, par for the course

[StoopTroup]

Tom is really hurting.

[soonercastor]

Not a bad defensive series, but those 2 first downs cost us field position. Now we have to get on the board. Let's get on the scoreboard.

[BB37]

oour D has had two good series, but at this rate, they are gonna get worn down

Yep, just got another stop, but the D is going to be gassed unless the O can put a drive together. The radio reports Jaz is being worked on, in pain.

[IBleedCrimson]

I can haz points????

[jcvsooner]

Well, they flipped the field on us. Time to put together a drive. First downs and points, please.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

lord, we'z needz poyntz. kplzthnx

[LiveLaughLove]

Well, if we are going to win, our offense has got to get something going.

Our guys look like they dont even want to be out there. They need to get fired up!
