Official Game Thread: OU versus West Virginia (2015)

[ouflak]

Getting it started...!

[Rogue]

In

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

In.

[Rogue]

Why can we stripe most of the stadium, but not the 4-5 lower level alum sections?

[Rogue]

ZS with a sort-of non tackle.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Sanchez looks quite a bit smaller than that rec

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Nice tfl for striker

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Shepard looks like he's wearing shorts today.

[Rogue]

I don't understand all the public betting love on WVU today. The line came down to OU-6 right before kickoff. We're at home, off a bye week, and seem to be improving every game. East Coast bias?

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Everyone is still gun shy

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Nice first play. Perine rush for 9 yrds

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Defense looking good so far.

[Rogue]

Good early defense.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Nice!!!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Quick. With two good cat hes

[SanDiegoSoonerGal]

Hi y'all. Yawn.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Td!!!!! Andrews! TE gettin some love

[aurorasooner]

Looks like Fox is going to do their thing with a multitude of commercials on every change of possession. D looks good with the exception of that 3 man rush. Luckily their QB threw high.

Froggies are just bending over the whorns early, not even 1/2 way thru the 1st qtr. 2 TDs and a safety to zip. With all those D starters out, their D looks pretty darn good. ABC

OU TD.

[BB37]

Stupid penalty

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Yup.

[BB37]

PICK!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Boom! Int baby!!!

[aurorasooner]

Holy *&^% we got a TO.

[Rogue]

Boom. First blood. Andrews is about 9 feet tall!

[BB37]

Umm, targeting, anyone?

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Defenseless reciever?

[Rogue]

Targeting or good defense. Either way, it was effective and dislodged the ball from DeDe.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

It looked brutal

[BB37]

Delayed SACK!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Parker is rockin it

[BB37]

Good Return for Shep!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Nice return by Shep

[Rogue]

Our ST are dominating today.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Come on man!

[BB37]

Dumb Dumb Dumb!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Second 15 yard penalty. Negates a huge plY

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Waste of good field position

[BB37]

Stupid PF killed that drive. Totally away from the play.

[BB37]

Geez! 3 15 yard penalties.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

You've got to be kidding! Another 15 yrd penalty!

[Mookie91]

I'd send Westbrook to locker room and I'd pull Romar off the field

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

What the ****!!!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Momentum killers. 4 penalties.. Each for 15 yards.

[kenth68]

man... we're giving it to them on a platter this wv drive

[Mookie91]

I normally don't get on the coaches but they seem to have no control

[BB37]

Toby just said on the radio that this ref crew is whistle-crazy.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

I disciplined bull****!

[Rogue]

OK, that was kind of funny.

[aurorasooner]

Looks like our DBs and receivers are doing some undisciplined jawing out there. Anyone got a radio Bcast of the game? Tried to find out a little before the game which Big 12 zebra crew was doing our game, but couldn't. Crap another 15 yarder on Romar, and from the replay it looks deserved....and then a facemask. This must be the same crew that did the OSU/Texas game or we're just completely undisciplined. and then another 15 yarder on Tapper.......sheesh.

[Mookie91]

I'd call a timeout a go Lou Holtz on the entire team

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

They were given 45 free yards on this drive

[Rogue]

DeDe's foul was justified, Tapper just boneheaded that play.

[BB37]

Per Toby on the radio, this is the same herd of zebras. That said, most of the flags have been deserved. WV has only run one or two plays on this drive that didn't include a defensive penalty.

[kenth68]

Crap another 15 yarder on Romar, and from the replay it looks deserved....and then a facemask. This must be the same crew that did the OSU/Texas game or we're just completely undisciplined. and then another 15 yarder on Tapper.......sheesh.

they we're clean calls. just sloppy on the part of romar and striker. tapper knew better than to throw him down when the play was blown.

[Mookie91]

This has been an issue for the last few years, too many head cases. You'd think people would take a cue from Perine.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Flags warranted, but coaches should be pissed and need to get that **** under control. We made that away to easy for wvu

[BB37]

td wv

[Mookie91]

I really hope this drive doesn't spark that 28 unanswered West Virginia run.

[kenth68]

we just gave that one to them

[BB37]

In other news, Froggies 30, saxet Fresh Out.

[aurorasooner]

Per Toby on the radio, this is the same herd of zebras. That said, most of the flags have been deserved. WV has only run one or two plays on this drive that didn't include a defensive penalty. I'm surprised that with all the flags they didn't get their safety for targeting. Sure looked like a classic text-book case to me.
We may move into the lead by halftime in the P5 penalty column.


The top five most penalized teams in Power Five conferences aren't exactly paying for their sins. Those five schools have a combined 15-2 record. Four of them are undefeated.

1. Baylor (3-0) -- 114.3 yards per game
2. Nebraska (2-2) -- 91.5 ypg
3. LSU (3-0) -- 86.0 upg
4. Oklahoma (3-0) -- 80.7
5. TCU (4-0) -- 80.0

[Soonerjeepman]

Total undisciplined actions. On a drive...offensive unsportsmanlike...40yards away after the play. Killed that drive....then 4 def penalties.

The ONLY good is we gave them that...td

[BB37]

Wait for the flag...PI defense, declined.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Wow! What a catch

[kenth68]

but penalties aside, i gotta say, i like that way they're playing today. they're up and awake this morning.

[BB37]

TD SHEP!

[BB37]

Wide open!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Boom!!!, td Shep! Great play by baker to get rid of that just in time !

[BoulderSooner79]

I love the fact we're not afraid to go deep. But we need to run the ball a little more.

[BoulderSooner79]

but penalties aside, i gotta say, i like that way they're playing today. they're up and awake this morning.

Agree. the Westbrook and Tapper flags were dumb, but he others were from aggression

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Take what the defense gives ya. Though I would like to see paring or mixon start shredding it up

[Soonerjeepman]

but penalties aside, i gotta say, i like that way they're playing today. they're up and awake this morning.

Yup....those penalties are correctable...immediately. Motivation to roll isn't

[aurorasooner]

In other news, Froggies 30, saxet Fresh Out. and the whorns just missed a FG down 30 to zip. The shag must be going bonkers.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Terrible kick

[BB37]

First accepted flag on WV today.

[Soonerjeepman]

Why is our fr not kicking off? He continually got it in the endzone

[BB37]

SACK!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Living in Austin, I love seeing the whorns fans when UT is struggling

[BoulderSooner79]

WVUs turn for penalties

[BB37]

Delay of game WV.

[aurorasooner]

Striker has got his "jet-shoes" on today.

[BoulderSooner79]

pile busting

[BB37]

Flags are starting to even out a bit...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Lovely

[Soonerjeepman]

Very frustrating....lol...damn penalties gave wv a td...d playing well. I think they learned against Tulsa...don't let up. But it's early....

[BoulderSooner79]

Lots of flags, but they've all been good calls. The only bad one was the missed targeting one.

[BB37]

Annnd, another flag on OU.

[BoulderSooner79]

Dang those horns! They are absolutely saving everything they got for us. They will make us look bad if we don't beat them by 50

[kenth68]

what's it say when you're looking forward to a simple holding call?

[BoulderSooner79]

time to make up for this flag and put the boot to the neck

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Westbrook with a catch, but hurt

[BB37]

Amazing! Just Amazing! Baker pulls another rabbit out of his helmet.

[BoulderSooner79]

get up Dede!

[BB37]

That was a catch.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Oline just can't open any holes for the rb's

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Man! So close

[BB37]

FG good

[BoulderSooner79]

tough catch, but shoulda had it

[BoulderSooner79]

good drive. made up for 1s and 20 and got 3. very close to getting the TD.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

FG 17-7

[BB37]

Another hold on WV during the return, ball on the 5.

[BB37]

Offensive PI on WV

[BB37]

Geez.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

How do you let that happen? Unbelievable

[Soonerjeepman]

Holy crap...really

[Soonerjeepman]

Run d is doing well....course so is wv run d

[BB37]

Incomplete, 4th down & 14

[Soonerjeepman]

Finally

[BB37]

Roughing the passer on WV.

[OU Adonis]

I really hate the style of O we have now.

[Soonerjeepman]

Probably from throwing him down

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

1st down Neal

[Mookie91]

Refs seem pro-OU which is good

[BB37]

Good YAC by Westbrook.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Nice run after catch by Westbrook

[BB37]

TD MIXON!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Gone! Td mixon!

[Soonerjeepman]

Sweet

[Soonerjeepman]

Nice run after catch by Westbrook

Yup stud

Horns miss another fg

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

And meanwhile....Texas still sucks

[Soonerjeepman]

Refs seem pro-OU which is good

Lol...yeah that off pi on wv was not a good call...but screw it

[BoulderSooner79]

Great play Thomas!

[Soonerjeepman]

Why would wv run...?...

[BB37]

Good job by Thomas on the deep pass.

[BoulderSooner79]

3 TO left, do we go for it?

[Soonerjeepman]

Great play Thomas!

Yes...perfect form

[BB37]

Halftime.

[BoulderSooner79]

Lol...yeah that off pi on wv was not a good call...but screw it

The WR drew the flag on himself by extending his arm so far trying to push off.

The PF on the Mayfield hit was a bad call and I'm one of those that believes in protecting QBs

[kenth68]

would be a shutout if not for all those penalties

[BoulderSooner79]

I really thought the WVU pressure would cause Mayfield to make a few mistakes. But he's been as cool as ever.

[BoulderSooner79]

Any chance Strong gets fired in locker room during halftime?

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

It's a strong possibility....

[BoulderSooner79]

It's a strong possibility....

I see what you did there..

[BB37]

It's a strong possibility....

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Shaggy has some funny **** right now! I'm surprised it's still up and running

[BB37]

Frogs 37 saxet zip starting Q3, and we have the chicken drive coming up in Norman.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Dana needs to just shave his head

[BB37]

Shaggy has some funny **** right now! I'm surprised it's still up and running

Hornfans has a "Odds of Strong Getting Fired This Week" thread up.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Penalties bro....penalties

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

KO and Punting hasn't been as sharp today

[Rogue]

Not the best series there...but now we know that their 2nd half adjustment is to drop into coverage. Time to run run run

[BB37]

Hornfans has a "Odds of Strong Getting Fired This Week" thread up.

From Hornfans: "The good news is the new hornfans doesn't crash during epic meltdown games like this anymore. So, we have that going for us, which is nice... "

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

****

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Here comes a turnover...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Wait for it...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Or not... Our run defense looks ....not right

[BB37]

Our run defense seems to have disappeared.

[BoulderSooner79]

I don't like this half as much so far. Bastages made adjustments on us

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Fix it mike. Adjust

[Soonerjeepman]

So much for our run d

[BB37]

Timeout OU

[Rogue]

Dammit

[BoulderSooner79]

TO to make our counter adjustments. We got this (right?)

[Soonerjeepman]

Taking some of the momentum...lol...taking all. Looks like we might have just chilled in the locker room.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Milk and cookies. Maybe a little nap. Wake up, and go play the second half

[BoulderSooner79]

A funny thread on shaggy is "what I'm going to do instead of watch the 2nd half"

Now, back to our 2nd half...

[Soonerjeepman]

TO to make our counter adjustments. We got this (right?)

I honestly at this point figure they'll score...a td. Hopefully we'll respond

[BB37]

Frogs now up 44.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Back to playing 10 yards off the rec

[Soonerjeepman]

Lol...wow. Wide open

[BB37]

td wv

[BoulderSooner79]

Nice catch, goddamit

[Soonerjeepman]

Yes Sanchez...it is a td

[Soonerjeepman]

Offense HAS to come back and score

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Different team

[BoulderSooner79]

Nothing Sanchez could do on that one. But I'm surprised they threw given how their Oline is pushing us back

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

****

[BB37]

Crap!

[Soonerjeepman]

Unf;;;believable

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

And here come sure tired defense

[BB37]

Good grief!

[BoulderSooner79]

no excuse for that fumble. But why no taunting call? Obvious and right in front of the ref.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

****ing Sanchez.

[Soonerjeepman]

Sanchez again...

[Soonerjeepman]

Everything in first half gone...jeeze

[BB37]

ZACK SACK!

[BoulderSooner79]

goal line stand, please

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Talk about a different ballgame

[BoulderSooner79]

played for the FG. I'll take it

[BB37]

Lucky to get out of this with a FG.

[Soonerjeepman]

Wow...ok. I'll give D props.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

We absolutely need some points and regain the momentum

[Soonerjeepman]

What a change in halves...c'mon off....no fricking turnovers...go down and score

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Everyone and heir mother knew the blitz was coming... Wtf

[BB37]

That's now how to start a possession.

[BoulderSooner79]

obvious blitz, should have checked out of play

[Soonerjeepman]

Just wow....

[BB37]

Three and out again. Letting this game get away from us.

[BoulderSooner79]

out of sync now

[Soonerjeepman]

Wouldn't have got 1st down

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

What did we do during halftime? Did everyone just go over to the mont and have drinks?

[BB37]

PF WV after the punt.

[BoulderSooner79]

that Westbrook fumble is proving to be huge. He had the ball in the wrong arm and wasn't even hit hard

[Soonerjeepman]

Lol....we just are shtting on ourselves

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Tenn gives up a huge come from behind win at home to ou.......the foot may be on the shoe today

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

If our offense can't get gong again., the defense is gonna get worn down

[Soonerjeepman]

What did we do during halftime? Did everyone just go over to the mont and have drinks?

Def enjoyed the first half highlites...thought game was over. Although I expected OU to win figured it'd b close.


I'd say this drive is huge.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Tackle ****ers.... That br should have been stopped 5 yards ago

[BoulderSooner79]

Their Oline looks way better than ours.

[Soonerjeepman]

Wv lit a fire under their guys....OU not so much

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

There we go baby!!

[BB37]

SACK -- FUMBLE, OU AT THE FIVE!!!

[JLMSOONER]

Needed that

[Rogue]

That's more like it!

[Soonerjeepman]

Please b a fumble

[BoulderSooner79]

offense has to payback the D for that one

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Come on o-line....

That helmet rule is so stupid

[Soonerjeepman]

Run wide....

[BB37]

Timeout WV.

[BoulderSooner79]

Even on TOs now

[SCSoonerfan]

Gotta have 7 here

[Soonerjeepman]

Come on o-line....

That helmet rule is so stupid

Especially when it gets torn off...

[BB37]

Mayfield to the 3, 3rd & goal.

[Soonerjeepman]

Even on TOs now

OU up 1

[BB37]

Crap. FG time.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Are you ****ing serious??? Line up in a jumbo set. Run it down their throat. ****!

[Soonerjeepman]

R u flicking kidding me
At least they didn't score...and we did..but totally a CF

[BoulderSooner79]

Good D, goddamit. They didn't let Andrews get into his route - I think that was the call

[SCSoonerfan]

No excuse not coming away with 7 there. *#$K

[BB37]

We can't run block on anybody.

[soonerfan69]

Are you ****ing serious??? Line up in a jumbo set. Run it down their throat. ****!

The O-line is getting manhandled in the run game

[BoulderSooner79]

We can't run block on anybody.

True dat

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Our offensive line is bad. And another kick not reaching the end zone

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

And another 15 yrd unsportsmanlike penalty

[BB37]

Gee whiz, another PF on OU.

[Soonerjeepman]

Again...why is our fr kicker no ticking off?
Unfrickinbelievable...

[BoulderSooner79]

that was a tricky tack call

[soonerfan69]

Dr Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde Team today

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Come on defense.... Get that ball back!

[Soonerjeepman]

Another 3 and long....cmon D

[BoulderSooner79]

Must be some breeze - kicks right to left are not going into the end zone.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Sanchez needs t wrap up

[BoulderSooner79]

i bet they go for this

[Soonerjeepman]

Going for it

[BB37]

And then we bail them out again. TD wv

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Mutha ****a

[BoulderSooner79]

hook, line and sinker on that one

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Again... Mutha ****a

[Soonerjeepman]

Lol....hey mike u just got ur *** handed to u

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Momentum? Nope

[BoulderSooner79]

shouldn't gamble on 4th and short at the 50. concede the 1st down, but don't give the big play

[BB37]

Jordan Thomas hurt

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Lol....hey mike u just got ur *** handed to u

This^


The QB was smiling the whole way to the end zone

[soonerfan69]

Good grief

[Soonerjeepman]

Why would u not keep outside containment...jeeze

[guido911]

OU was flat out-coached right there. Again.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

More penalties.

[Soonerjeepman]

Of course

[BB37]

And a flag on the return.

[soonerfan69]

OU was flat out-coached right there. Again.

And outplayed
