Texas vs Maryland Game Thread

[bystander]

Nobody is attacking the ball. We seem to be dancing with the blockers.

 

[ProdigalHorn]

I'll say this. The DBs are hitting. They just need to stop tackling each other on crossing routes...

 

[wadster]

We have 44 yds and 40 on one play on 3 possessions. We are going to have to run Ehlinger and make them account for him

 

[Statalyzer]

We have no concept of angles. Three guys could have had him in the backfield but they all ran straight at him instead of running to where he was trying to get.

 

[ProdigalHorn]

I'm glad I didn't buy into the hype of our front 7 being a bunch of nasty beasts. This group looks awful.

Except for the uncovered receivers.

 

[bystander]

NICE SURGE!

 

[wadster]

Meanwhile OU is up 21. We have 8 seniors on D I believe and I just don't get it.

 

[nashhorn]

Imo, Hager looks gassed.

 

[Texanne]

Another bright spot - no roughing the passer yet, but only because we have not been able to get close to him.

 

[bystander]

Ok. We're only down seven. Time to right this ship.

 

[wadster]

Yes a play and the punt was good, but didn't pin us inside the 5 at least. Now let's go O.

 

[dukesteer]

I like what I’m seeing in Sterns.

 

[Joe Fan]

I have to admit this is not how I saw this game going

Glad I did not wager on it
(i think it closed at -12 Texas)

 

[ProdigalHorn]

I don't know why they'd ever run a standard straight up run play. That's the one thing we've stuffed today.

 

[wadster]

Don't like switching backs every series. How is a guy supposed to get in a groove.

 

[ViperHorn]

Jones looks like an upgrade at punt returner.

Me too - knew we'd struggle early. Hope we get it together late...

All i heard is how strong and how much better shape they're in. Bunch of BS!

 

[Statalyzer]

I think we relied on Poona a lot more than people realized.

 

[bystander]

On a side note, Rico Gathers was busted last night for a small amount of weed. Not good timing since they are making roster cuts.

Back to the game; a tepid three and out. No running game.

 

[Garmel]

O-line getting beat.

 

[Statalyzer]

They are getting pressure and we can't block, so we'll probably run 1 successful screen pass next drive and then not try one again the entire half.

 

[dukesteer]

All we have on offense is one long pass, one penalty for a FD, and no continuity. So far my fears are being realized. No improvement yet.

Neither, apparently, do they!

 

[Denmark]

This O s....

 

[wadster]

****. OU is looking all world. We get a late hit and are so undisciplined.

 

[Joe Fan]

From the 55 Maryland fans present?

Their fans thought the same thing we did -- that their program is in disarray
Hate to see us face a program in array

 

[Texanne]

Sorry, guys ...

LOL friend of mine texted two minutes ago "does omenehu ever do anything?" Well, there you go.
