Flak is awol Game thread

[ouduckhunter]

Tequila time!

[BB37]

Timeout OU

[SCSoonerfan]

Im gonna need more whiskey..

[SanDiegoSoonerGal]

I got out of bed early on a Saturday for this.

[BB37]

Dom back on the field, has a cast on his right arm.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

I don't know what to think. I haven't seen our offense this inept since.....

[EatLeadCommie]

Maybe we will fire Heupel at halftime, but I fear he bought himself another 3 yrs with the Bama game

[Mac94]

20 to 0 UGA over Mizzou late in the 2nd

[BigTip]

figures

[BB37]

Good grief. WHen it's not your day, it's not your day...

[JLEW1818]

This is making me sick man

[ouduckhunter]

Wish our offense would get off the bus.

That be one broken down bus!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Well that proves it. Nothing is going to go our way

[EatLeadCommie]

Josh is now adding UT's fumble run play to our repertoire

[aurorasooner]

Same story different year. Defense plays good but lets them back in the game.
Offensive is offensive, and it's not the play calling, it's the offensive, offensive philosophy. Absolutely no misdirection, shifts, motion to confuse the opposition defense and if our OL can't beat the defensive line one on one then were SOL.
HCBS should know this, that's why he brought Leach in his 1st year, his offense was extremely hard to game-plan against.
Without any more turnovers, we're going to screw around with this ""gift start, our D will tire and we'll let a pizz-poor whorn team pwn us. sad.

[JLEW1818]

3rd down conversion ..........

We couldn't buy one.

[BigTip]

I am feeling a little sick

[SoonerCLF]

How... why.... /facepalm

[BB37]

Another completed pass to a wide open receiver....

[PhiDeltBeers]

How does a guy get that open?

[Mac94]

How in the world can they keep converting 3rd and longs

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

3rd and 8. Should we just give em the first?

[BB37]

Defense is gassed.

[BigTip]

That be one broken down bus!

The one with the first and second team broke down.

[okiewaker]

Wow. All world offense UT putting on the field. Has to be b/c our D is supposed really good. Js

[BB37]

Fumble. FG coming up.

[BigTip]

The football gods are not smiling on us

[Since71ASooner4Life]

wow, my optimism for this season is gone - right down the toilet

[JLEW1818]

Josh should just head back to Norman at half.

Get something else going.

[okiewaker]

TOP gotta be extremely lopsided.

[BigTip]

I was not going to drink because of the early start time. I am reassessing that decision.

[Therealsouthsider]

.....my gawd, it's like watching two retards fighting over a juice-box

ss

[bluedogok]

I can see maybe two wins (KU & ISU) the rest of the season if they continue to play like this.

[Indy Sooner]

Embarrassing display outside of the KO return squad.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

well, at least we looked awesome against those cupcakes we played the first couple games

[Mac94]

Horn defense is destroying the offense ... Sooner special teams have been special is a good way ... and I don't know what I'm seeing when Horn offense and Sooner D is out there ... it's like both are trading moments of ineptitude.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

TOP gotta be extremely lopsided.

I think we've has the ball for 12 mins

[OffroadOUFan]

TOP gotta be extremely lopsided.

Possession 22:28 6:44

I'll let you figure out which is which.

[BB37]

Never has a halftime score been so deceptive.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

.....my gawd, it's like watching two retards fighting over a juice-box

ss


that was bad

[BigTip]

Half time. Thank gawd

[kenth68]

trevor acted like he couldn't get off the field fast enough

[BB37]

Looked like a John Blake offense out there...

[Indy Sooner]

Never has a halftime score been so deceptive.

So true...

[OffroadOUFan]

They just said we gained 29 yards in the whole half. Wowzers, that's not even a good single possession drive!

[Indy Sooner]

What did Charlie just say?

[PhiDeltBeers]

I'd be embarrassed to play for either team. They both look awful.

[SoonerorLater]

Looked like a John Blake offense out there...

This is an insult to the John Blake offenses

[SoonerBBall]

Same **** as last week.

The coaches are still trying to make Trevor a pocket passer and still playing defense not to lose instead of attacking and playing to win.

[EatLeadCommie]

Zero creativity on O for the 2nd year in a row against UT. It is just inexcusable.

[Mac94]

278 to 29 yrds edge in total offense .... offense has 1 first down ... and up by 4. So far in every Horn loss the 3rd quarter has been a disaster for them on both sides of the ball ... have to have good adjustments and shatter the Horns mentally quickly. If OU goes 3 and oout to start the 2nd half it could be ball game.

[SoonerinSECland]

This has to be some kind of record... I don't know that I've seen football this pathetic since the days of the Grand Exalted Drunkard.. Bring back Schnelly!!!!!!! :)

Just think, in the TCU pregame show, the announcers were talking that this Sooners defense was the best since (and maybe equal to) the Selmon brothers defense.

[soonerboomer93]

That would be an improvement over what we've seen the last 4 quarters.

29 yards, ****ing embarrassing.

[BigTip]

What did Charlie just say?

Couldn't tell. He was laughing and smiling too much

[PhiDeltBeers]

Their receivers are running wide open making Swoopes look like Peyton Manning.

[JLMSOONER]

I think we should see if we can call it a game now!

[SoonerorLater]

Just awful.

21 yds passing, 8 yards rushing. Come on, the UT defense is pretty good but they're not the 85 Chicago Bears.

[EatLeadCommie]

UT on pace for 550 yards, and remember that Swopes had his long run called back.

[Blue]

Absolutely horrible. Way to go coaches.

[soonerboomer93]

Considering the offense if an embarrassment and the D has been out there 23 minutes? I'm not going to complain too much. That D did a ton to try and win the last 1/2 of the TCU game, getting multiple turnovers. Yeah, giving up some big plays sucks, but watching the offense go 3-out consistently can't help that D one bit.

[Therealsouthsider]

....if I were Stoops I'd call Josh off to the side, put my hands on his shoulders, throw-up and walk away

ss

[okiewaker]

Total domination to this point. 29yds O in the 1st half. Has there ever been a time when the O output in a half been that low?

[Okie35]

We will no doubt play better in the 2nd half but the offense has to move. The defense can't stay out there the whole half again.

[BigTip]

This has to be some kind of record... I don't know that I've seen football this pathetic since the days of the Grand Exalted Drunkard.. Bring back Schnelly!!!!!!! :)

Just think, in the TCU pregame show, the announcers were talking that this Sooners defense was the best since (and maybe equal to) the Selmon brothers defense.

In the Texas pregame show they said we have the 55th rated D in the land

[JLMSOONER]

Total domination to this point. 29yds O in the 1st half. Has there ever been a time when the O output in a half been that low?
That low? I'm feeling pretty good with the 29 the way we are playing! #sad

[okiewaker]

Wonder what the offense rates nationally? Now, back to my PBR

[SoonerinSECland]

In the Texas pregame show they said we have the 55th rated D in the land

I don't think we're nearly that good today. We have no linebacker play and Ahmad Thomas is having a very bad day.

What happened to Gastelum? He was all the rage against the Cajuns......

[SoonerorLater]

29 yards. You could almost just snap the ball and fall forward and get more than 29 yards in a half.

[tooslow]

Any chance at all that Bob changes the offensive philosophy after this season? It seems that other conference teams have become way too familiar with what we try to do. Gotta respect what TCU and other schools did by completely revamping their offense in the off-season, so yes, a change can be installed "over night."

[OffroadOUFan]

Wonder what the offense rates nationally? Now, back to my PBR

I'm committed to drinking less during the games to be more attentive to the game itself, but today has me rethinking that decision...

[Blue]

"Bounce Back" Bob is on the mat and the count it at 6...

[sendbaht]

we could possibly get 58 yards and win this thing.:)

[SoonerorLater]

I think it's time for Plan B

[JLEW1818]

****ING COACH, COACH

[Blue]

We need a TD on this first drive in the worst way.

[EatLeadCommie]

I thought we changed it with the Bama game. Apparently not

[SoonerorLater]

We need a TD on this first drive in the worst way.

That's about the only way we'll get one, given the way we're playing so far today.

[JLEW1818]

Hate life, I really need this win

[olevetonahill]

278 to 29 yrds edge in total offense .... offense has 1 first down ... and up by 4. So far in every Horn loss the 3rd quarter has been a disaster for them on both sides of the ball ... have to have good adjustments and shatter the Horns mentally quickly. If OU goes 3 and oout to start the 2nd half it could be ball game.

If we dont do shat in the 3rd it cant be worse than the 1st 1/2 LOL

[Since71ASooner4Life]

We need a TD on this first drive in the worst way.

yep

[Therealsouthsider]

....why don't we have more than one wideout worth a d@mn

....those of you counting on the uterus defense collapsing in the second half....don't, they have to be on the field to get worn down

Chuck Fairbanks did it in '70. Those of us old enough remember what came out of that...

[soonercastor]

Man I need to stop getting so invested in this ****. I'm really upset right now for pretty much no reason

[tooslow]

I wonder if that was more of calling plays with nothing to lose, since everyone had us losing the game. If that's the case, they need to game plan like we're the underdog every week.

[soonercastor]

It seems that other conference teams have become way too familiar with what we try to do.

What exactly do "we try to do"?

[Blue]

UT has all the momentum right now. Lets take it back! Boomer!

[BB37]

I hope someone wins some chicken here...

[BB37]

Shep to the ut 44, 31 yards.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

OMG a play with a little imagination

[SCSoonerfan]

TK continues to throw his passes way too high.

[JLMSOONER]

Haha. Shepard just gained more than the whole O in the first half.

[BB37]

Geez.

[Blue]

Huepels a clown

[SCSoonerfan]

wtf was that

[JLEW1818]

LOL now running all reverses

What a loser Josh

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

His is just getting laughable now

[kenth68]

wtf was that

that was the signal that we don't have a clue

[Since71ASooner4Life]

This game is over. We'll call it a season after the Baylor game

[Okie35]

Is it sad that I'm scared when the offense has the ball?

[Mac94]

Well ... now the hope is that Texas gives this game away ... offense isnt going to get it done ... so have to hope Texas keeps shooting themselves in the foot

[Blue]

Our D hates tackling people.

[EatLeadCommie]

Double reverse to the short side of the field *sigh*

[BB37]

Here comes another miraculous 3rd down for tx...

...or not!

[Mac94]

And there's the 3rd and long stop ... FINALLY!

[swardboy]

C'mon special teams punt return

[JLEW1818]

Quadruple reverse coming soon!!!!

[Rogue]

The draw play was one that everyone knew was coming. And executed as badly as usual. We haven't done the meerkat-stall-delay/timeout yet.

[Okie35]

The good thing is that the defense actually makes adjustments in the 2nd half. We need to stretch the field more but no reverses.

[tooslow]

It seems that other conference teams have become way too familiar with what we try to do.

What exactly do "we try to do"?

"They" try to run the plays the coaches call to produce positive yardage. I say try because the bigger conference teams seem to have caught on and have started scheming accordingly. It could also very well be that we don't have the talent to run what they are calling. Who knows. At the end of the day(heh) I'm just second guessing like everyone else, which is easy to do when the plays aren't working. ;)

[SCSoonerfan]

Wonder if we will try a reverse here.

[OffroadOUFan]

Quadruple reverse coming soon!!!!

Let's go Gillette and skip straight to 5 from 3...

[BB37]

The draw play was one that everyone knew was coming. And executed as badly as usual. We haven't done the meerkat-stall-delay/timeout yet.

It's still early...

[Since71ASooner4Life]

Not to dismiss TK's poor passing accuracy, but after all the hype about the OL .... that is definitely one area where we were way mislead

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Remember when our offense was so good, that we knew we were going to score, and were never worries about moving the football?
Ahhhh. The good ole days!

[Okie35]

I miss Keith Ford

[Since71ASooner4Life]

3rd down .... time to punt

[Therealsouthsider]

....put Heuple on the bus

ss

[Blue]

Soooo baaad

[SCSoonerfan]

3 n out again..

[Okie35]

....put Heuple on the bus

ss

Hilarious

[JLEW1818]

Something bad is about to happen and we deserve it

[BlownGP]

This offense is pathetic

[Rogue]

Our offense is pitiful.

[BB37]

Sack for Striker.

[Mac94]

Oh crap ... 3rd and long again ;-)

[SoonerKnight]

Boomer

[Mac94]

Whew ... punt time

[Rogue]

That wasn't a catch

[Soonerjeepman]

this really is sad...

[SoonerKnight]

Wtf?? What happened?

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

This game is a cluster****. Someone on this team needs to get fired up and be a leader. Someone needs to inspire this team.

[JLEW1818]

That wasn't a catch

Saw it hit the grass too

[Soonerjeepman]

next 3 plays

off tackle, minimal gain
pass in the flat, dropped
pass for 8 yrds, after being flushed out of the pocket by 4 rushers (needing 10)

[swardboy]

Even if we win today I'm glad that my expectations are in line with reality for the year.

[JLEW1818]

Can we try to go under center?

[Blue]

Is this where Knight starts throwing picks?

jk....lets get some first downs boys!

[BlownGP]

So has everybody underrated the Texas defense? I know this ain't the Landry Jones offense but Texas is playing pretty Damn good.

[Therealsouthsider]

....I just figured out that the TCU qb isn't very good at all

ss

[Soonerjeepman]

we continue to play the field position game (bad side) it'll burn us at least once

[Since71ASooner4Life]

should we go ahead and concede that we wont get a first down so why bother, and just punt now?

[SoonerKnight]

F UCLA texas

[aurorasooner]

That wasn't a catchIt was close. I think the coaches were just so happy it was short of the 1st, that they were celebrating, and didn't GAS about the yardage

[cvsooner]

I know I'm tired of anyone named Shipley playing for the Horns.

[SCSoonerfan]

OMG a 1st down!!

[Mac94]

OMG .... a 1st down!!!!!

[soonercastor]

OL getting pushed around, smh

[BB37]

Bell with another catch, first down. Pretty sad that I'm excited for a first down.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

OMG !!!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

I ducking hate that hosing the ball out for the handoff ****...

[JLEW1818]

Charlie Strong will always have a strong Texas D

[Soonerjeepman]

jeezae WHY do we sit there with the ball and JUST wait to hand it off...

[Since71ASooner4Life]

what's that unfamiliar music I just heard the band play?

[JLMSOONER]

On another note.....we do play with very few penalties!

[BB37]

Sigh!

[Since71ASooner4Life]

jeezae WHY do we sit there with the ball and JUST wait to hand it off...

we want to be fair and give 3 or 4 guys the opportunity to sandwich they guy getting the ball

[EatLeadCommie]

I can tell josh thinks their D is gonna tire. Hard for them to tire when they're not on the field

[Soonerjeepman]

I ducking hate that hosing the ball out for the handoff ****...

yup

[JLEW1818]

Never seen Stoops coach back to back bad games like this.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

0-7 on third down conversions.
Barnet's leg is going to be fuxking sore tomorrow!

[SCSoonerfan]

Our punt team will not need to practice for the rest of the year after this mess.

[guido911]

I am sorry to say, but Trevor Knight is not the answer. First thing, though, is firing Heupel.

[Rogue]

Change the play call with 8 secs left....again. This is getting old

[soonercastor]

****ing A

[Soonerjeepman]

I can tell josh thinks their D is gonna tire. Hard for them to tire when they're not on the field

no doubt

[soonersweetie]

Play calling, horrid. I know Stoops won't throw Heupel under the bus, but it's awful.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

jeezae WHY do we sit there with the ball and JUST wait to hand it off...

Yup.it takes so long for the play to develop and no way to hit a hole bc it's already close up by the time the rb has the bal.

[JLEW1818]

How did he do that against Bama? I don't see how you can now suck so bad

[BlownGP]

Why do we keep running up the middle?

[Soonerjeepman]

at least the D is playing better...

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

How did he do that against Bama? I don't see how you can now suck so bad

The defense is crowding the sidelines throws forcing him to throw over the middle.

[Soonerjeepman]

that looked easy enough...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Swoops and Shipley. Kicking our *** with two players

[Since71ASooner4Life]

Yup.it takes so long for the play to develop and no way to hit a hole bc it's already close up by the time the rb has the bal.

bingo

[OffroadOUFan]

Most of the time, Texas' play development looks like it's in fast forward compared to ours.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Change the play call with 8 secs left....again. This is getting old

Said the same thing...then throw it into the 17th row.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

We're due for our quarterly non offensive td

[Soonerjeepman]

I can tell josh thinks their D is gonna tire. Hard for them to tire when they're not on the field

someone needs to tell him OUR D is going to tire with the O going 0fer on 3rd down...

[Mac94]

2nd and 25 ... cant give this up

[JLMSOONER]

[QUOTE=JLEW1818;4865132]How did he do that against Bama? I don't see how you can now suck so bad[/QUOTE

Bama should feel like Sh*t!!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Way to make it easy for them. 3rd and nine is a price of cake

[guido911]

Play calling, horrid. I know Stoops won't throw Heupel under the bus, but it's awful.

It's not throwing someone under the bus, because that rings of excuse making. Heupel is a failure, and firing him would be a solid business decision. He does not know what he is doing.

[OffroadOUFan]

12th defender the field helped us out that time

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Way to make it easy for them. 3rd and nine is a price of cake

Reverse psychology worked!!

[swardboy]

thank goodnes shipley stumbled

[BB37]

So far, our defense has looked better this half...

[Soonerjeepman]

bu and osu are going to be tough games...heck maybe even tt.

[Mac94]

Whew ... another punt coming up ... Texas offense is playing just like last week ... ok in 1st half ... bad in 2nd ... have to get a two score lead and put this away

[JLEW1818]

OMG score a ****ing touchdown

[LibertyValance]

Can't we use Bell on 1st down for a change?

[BB37]

Wow, a pass to Rip! That's how to fool em!

[Since71ASooner4Life]

For God's sake let's score a damn TD !!!!

[Mac94]

FINISH THIS DRIVE!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Most inspired run I've seen all day.

[OffroadOUFan]

Did a switch somewhere, somehow get turned on?

[BB37]

TD SHEP!!!

[Since71ASooner4Life]

So far, our defense has looked better this half...

I'm seeing a glimmer of hope myself

[Soonerjeepman]

hey another one...

UNBELIEVBLE

[Mac94]

YES!!!!!! TD SHEP!!!!!!!

[swardboy]

Fast tempo....DO IT

[SCSoonerfan]

Our O finally arrived

[SanDiegoSoonerGal]

Why do we keep running up the middle?

Heupel found Kevin Wilson's tattered old playbook in his desk drawer apparently.

[BB37]

Did a switch somewhere, somehow get turned on?

Someone broke out the defibrillator.

[SoonerCLF]

I don't believe it... couldn't have happened. I must be asleep and dreaming that TD happened

[JLEW1818]

OMG score a ****ing touchdown

Bout time they heard me

[nanimonai]

Heupel must have been out getting a corn dog last drive.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

Finally !!!!! We Suck, but at least we dont continuously suck non stop

[Okie35]

About time we sped up and that was a late hit ... They need to start calling these Tapper got hit in the face earlier...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

So that's what it feels like to get an offensive td!!

[Therealsouthsider]

....defense/special teams still ahead 14 - 10


ss

[Blue]

Yeah baby! Now tee off!

[EatLeadCommie]

Oh look at that. Wheel route. And that whole drive was set up by a D still shaking its head over Rip catching a pass

[Mac94]

No one wake up SoonerCLF ;-)

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

I need to get me one of those pullovers that non is wearing

[kenth68]

Heupel must have been out getting a corn dog last drive.

Will someone please tell him they have those big delicious turkey legs too...

[PhiDeltBeers]

Heupel must have been out getting a corn dog last drive.

Lmao!

[Soonerjeepman]

maybe josh checked out this thread? lol

[BB37]

Wow, when the worm turns...

[BlownGP]

Haha, right

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

maybe josh checked out this thread? lol

It would be in his best interest to frequent it more often! ;)

[Okie35]

The implosion has started ... About time

[Mac94]

Score here and it should be over

[JLMSOONER]

Wow.....and no one to even get close to a missed snap

[Indy Sooner]

How did he do that against Bama? I don't see how you can now suck so bad

Focused on Katy Perry and not the task at hand.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Bob told josh to go get a mega ride pass and he got stuck on the tilta-whirl.

[JLEW1818]

Catch the ****ing ball

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Kj should have had that one

[Mac94]

Crap ... missed opportunity ... could have put them away here

[Okie35]

Told you guys like last time .... Other receivers aren't open or can't catch

[EatLeadCommie]

Our WRs are garbage

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Is that true! Only rec to catch a td is shep?? That's stupid

[soonercastor]

Back to our ways

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Pick 6 coming up

[Since71ASooner4Life]

My God, imagine if we actually had our sh$t together - with Texas's ineptitude this could have been another one of those 60 point blowout beatdowns. Instead, we hopefully get to hang our heads in shame over an ugly win we didn't deserve

[Mac94]

turnover by texas would be so nice right here

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Open receiver and DBS that can't tackle ..... Again

[BB37]

End of Q3.

[Since71ASooner4Life]

sorry guys, we got the little shovel pass figured out finally

[Okie35]

I don't know what Jordan Evans has been doing at all on defense.... He doesn't follow the ball on short routes at all.

[JLEW1818]

Win the ****ing 4th quarter. Enough said.

[Mac94]

Good quarter for the defense

[Soonerjeepman]

Bob told josh to go get a mega ride pass and he got stuck on the tilta-whirl.

lol..nice one

[aurorasooner]

Sure hope our D doesn't let them have a cheap one here.
We need to put this one away right now, whether it's a TO, or our offense rising back from the dead, again.
A pretty good name for our O, "The Walking Dead"

[Mac94]

27-0 UGA over Mizzou end of 3rd

[Mac94]

27-13 Tech over WV

[BB37]

LOL!

[BigTip]

Is he actually saying that "OU is in it" with a straight face?

[Mac94]

3rd and long .... defense survives ... gotten much better in 2nd half

[Okie35]

We can always count on defensive adjustments

[BB37]

Sideline warning on Mike Stoops.

[JLEW1818]

Swoops got pressured and still threw it between 3 Sooners, dropped pass.
