Pretty much spot on...
"How bout K-State going into Norman and beating OU. Bill Snyder could probably beat Bob Stoops if they would've switched sidelines, too."

With the way the game played out it is hard to argue otherwise.

Forde is a massive dooshymcdooshbag and is solidly in the Skip Bayless camp. Where was he last year when Bob could've not only switched sidelines, but gone up into student section and randomly selected co-eds to line up against Snyder?
That mealy-mouthed dirtbag is an OU hater out-and-out and he can suck my anus.

When you get beat, you get to eat a lot of crow. Hard to say anything about anything people say about this team currently.
I thought we would win tonight, but I had no illusions this year about how overrated this team was from the beginning.
I held a small amount of hope that LJ would mature leaps and bounds and carry the team on his shoulders. Such is not the case it appears.
Too thin on the lines to compete with the very top teams this year.
Still my team rain or shine though. Was exciting to watch Sterling have such a great game.

I have stopped counting how many times Stoopsy has gotten out-coached the last few years. I don't have enough fingers and toes.
Stoops probably spend 3-4 hours per day surfing the net, but to his bosses it looks like he is working....
This news is nothing new but details 2 different coaches..
Nick Saban is a micro manager...no one steps on the field or off without his approval..He is notorious for this, but it's why he never seems out of control and look like WTF is going on..
Bob Stoops is known to let his assistants do their job without his interference..He has said position coaches decide who is on the field in situations..
Nothing else to say, but those are the facts.

And, much to the chagrin of many here, Les Miles might be one of the best as well. Hate him because he used to coach Aggy...but, the guy gets it done with whomever is on his roster.
I expect much pissing and moaning again this year when Bama and LSU end up and #1 and #2 again.

In wine there is wisdom. In beer there is strength. In water there is bacteria.
Who is to say? We may all think he is good because of his record and the things he has done in the past...but really...what has he done in the last 7-8 years??? I know, I know, he has gotten us to some big games and all...but how many of those big games has he won? How many games have we lost because we were "flat"?
I don't know if it's time to replace Bob...I just know that as Sooner fans we should expect more. It has gotten to the point that when we play big games...I expect to lose.
Damn
Bob started taking decisive action in the off season with players and coaches. I think he needs to keep going now with the tough-love and bench Landry. If Landry folds and pouts, then he wasn't going to ever amount to anything anyway. If he sucks it up, focuses and rewins his position, then, good, he's the guy. In the meantime, Bell gets reps and anyway, we won't win with Landry playing this way, so it's a wash at worst.

If Landry has another game like the one he just played, Stoops will have little choice. I would give him the game against Tech to redeem himself. Personally I don't think he'll get any better unless they go back to the swing pass as their main option -- or suddenly become a dominant running team.
I bet he gets rewarded with more playing time next game. The rest of the receivers will be rewarded with practice time against bye.Was exciting to watch Sterling have such a great game.
