    The Road Warrior Report - Houston Review - September 2, 2019

    NORMAN     – The Jalen Hurts era, short though it is guaranteed to be, got off to a rousing start Saturday night in Norman, as Hurts broke the school record for total offense in a debut game, and had the second-most rushing yards ever by an Oklahoma QB in the Sooners’ 49-31 win over Houston. Overall, Hurts accounted for 508 yards of offense by himself, including 332 yards on 20 of 23 passing for three TDs and 176 yards rushing on 16 carries for three more...

    The Road Warrior Report - Orange Bowl CFP Semifinal Review - December 30, 2018

    MIAMI GARDENS, FL – The pundits said we didn’t have a chance, not with our dumpster fire of a defense. In the end, they were right, as it took the Sooner offense a quarter to get going against Alabama’s defense, and by that time the Tide were up 28-0. The Sooners outscored the Tide 34-17 from there, but it was too little, too late, as Bama prevailed 45-34 and advanced to the CFP National Championship Game for the fourth year in a row.

    Murray was stellar after a bad start, going 19-37 for...

    ARLINGTON, TEXAS – The Sooners secured their unprecedented fourth straight Big 12 Conference championship, a College Football Playoff berth, and avenged their only loss of the season with a 39-27 victory over Texas Saturday afternoon at JerryWorld. The Sooner defense played its best game of the season, holding Texas to a season-low 88 yards rushing and coming up with a critical safety in the fourth quarter.

    MORGANTOWN, WV – The Sooners defeated West Virginia 59-56 Friday night in Morgantown, punching their ticket to Arlington for a rematch with Texas and a shot at their unprecedented fourth straight Big 12 title. That much, including the score, really shouldn’t have come as any surprise to anyone. What was a surprise is that the Sooner defense, which was abjectly incompetent most of the night, punctuated that futility with a couple of moments of brilliance that...

    The Road Warrior Report - Kansas Review - November 18, 2018

    IMG_9246.JPG NORMAN – The Sooner defense, admittedly hampered by injuries, put on perhaps its worst performance of a bad year Saturday night, surrendering 40 points and 524 yards to lowly Kansas in a 55-40 win on a frigid evening at Owen Field. The Sooner offense, on the other hand, did not punt and scored seven TDs, failing to score only because of a pair of turnovers and running out the clock at the end of the game.

    Kyler Murray was brilliant once again, other than a second...

    NORMAN – Same story, same result. Same as last year and so many years before. The Sooners and OSU locked in a tight battle that always comes out in our favor, ín defiance of the law of averages. The 48-47 win keeps the Sooners in the driver’s seat in the Big 12 heading into the final two games of the season.

    LUBBOCK, TX – All anyone could seem to talk about leading up to the Sooners’ game with Texas Tech was what happened here two years ago and that ridiculous 66-59 OU win. This game wasn’t that. It was weird in its own way, as night game in Lubbock often are, but it ended like almost all of them do, with a Sooner win. This time, it wasn’t quite 66-59, but 51-46 worked well enough in a game that, hopefully, won’t be remembered much past Sunday morning.

    70BC6EB8-F0FB-43B2-8756-4DDA769464ED.jpeg

    NORMAN – Bill Snyder said that Kansas State wanted to do to the Sooners this week what Army did earlier in the season – play physical and defend the explosive Sooner offense by keeping them off the field. Instead, the Sooners proved themselves the far more physical team in a mismatch that resulted in a 51-14 OU win that was not as close as the score indicated.

    5A5A8C8A-E0B1-4955-885B-691249DA0E72.jpeg

    FORT WORTH, TEXAS – It always seems that the Sooners have to lose a game to start playing their best. I hope that what we saw in Fort Worth wasn’t their best, but it was better than we have seen recently, particularly on defense. The defense held TCU to only three points in the second half, helping the Sooners to a 52-27 rout of the Horned Frogs.

    Kyler Murray was 19-24 for 213 yards and four TDs. The Sooners did most of their damage on the ground, gashing the...

    DALLAS, TEXAS - They say the best defense is a good offense. That was proven by Army a couple of weeks ago. However, in the Sooners’ case, the best defense is an average defense, or even a below average defense. A below average defense would have seen the Sooners win Saturday against Texas. An average defense, and they would be defending national champions. Instead, we have whatever was purported to be the Sooner defense in the Cotton Bowl on Saturday. Because...
