KSU vs TEXAS Game Thread

[Statalyzer]

Part of the reason we rarely blow anyone out is that our offense and defense never can put it together in the same game. We'll win 20-17 one week and 45-41 the next.

 

[Pomspoms]

Oh vaughn made that guy look bad I don't know who it was that whiffed on that tackle

 

[BALL IS LIFE]

One player (22)! You have one job.

 

[Mike the Texan]

And just like that, state scores and what should have been a 38-10 lead turns into 31-17.

Team cannot handle any adversity. Herman needs to go.

 

[BevoJoe]

Vaughn again TD KSU.

 

[RainH2burntO]

Derek Kerstetter is the nation’s top returning pass blocker at RT

Horns best go all Archie Bell and the Drells and Tighten Up!

 

[Clean]

KSU midgets killing our D.

 

[RainH2burntO]

We have a history of not doing too well against the small scat backs

I think everyone does

 

[Joe Fan]

 

[LHABSOB]

Looking forward to Tom's halftime adjustments to stop deuce.

 

[WorsterMan]

Horns letting Mildcats hang around... I dont like it.

31-17

 

[Pomspoms]

And I think deuce is from round Rock

So it would be ok for all juniors and seniors of all teams to sit their last two games? Try to rationalize it any way you want, quitting on your teammates is inexcusable and the quitters need to just go away. Clean out the lockers, the dorms and no invite to the banquet.

Isn’t it interesting that the “D” and the run game looks better without the quitters.

Good point.
Every draft eligible player should quit the team once they determine that they aren’t going to a major bowl.
That very well could be after the 3rd or 4th game ....all Penn St should walk week 3.. It’s a “business decision “
Call it the Cosmi/Sterns rule.

They look better because of the competition. There should never be any doubt about the outcome of this game. Never has a 21 point lead felt so shaky.

Vaughn has made big 12 defenses look bad

Get over it. It's the new landscape.

 

[EMJ426]

I don’t want to mention holding on that last KS TD, but it was there an very obvious

 

[zuckercanyon]

Derek Kerstetter is the nation’s top returning pass blocker at RT

This cannot be correct.

 

[cnb]

That's the offensive series heman always blesses us with.

 

[NRHorn]

Not for me and my character, for you it is.

How about enjoying the game thus far

 

[LHABSOB]

We pass when we should run and run when we should pass....

 

[Horns11]

Yeah why actually move the ball when we could have a really quick 3-and-out to end a half?

 

[LHABSOB]

We pass when we should run and run when we should pass....

I guess i own a different binder....

 

[Joe Fan]

Quentin Griffin

And Darren Sproles

 

[WorsterMan]

And I think deuce is from round Rock

You are correct, announcers said he is.

 

[Statalyzer]

They look better because of the competition.

Baylor, Texas Tech, and Oklahoma State all have worse run defenses than Kansas State. Our OL looks better now than it did in any of those three games. I wish I knew enough to tell who specifically is stepping up the most on the line - all I can tell is there are bigger holes that open quicker and more often than there have been all year. I've seen our new center make a couple of nice ones but beyond that I haven't noticed which specific players have been doing it most consistently.

Playcalling has improved too - we've mixed it up more, been less predictable, and thrown more medium routes and in routes instead of only deep, behind the LOS, and sideline. But also, better blocking makes the playcalling look better. Even that one sack we took was mostly on Sam; who had an open guy in the flat, stared at him without looking upfield, and then ran out of time to do anything.

 

[Pomspoms]

Great first half for the longhorns hope we do the same thing in the second half
