Agreed Treadway. Can we go pilfer someone from soccer?

Absolutely agree. The kicker was terrible today. Really was a momentum killer after we recovered on the kickoff.

On the money dad. This was our fourth game against a top 25 team. Theu are conference mates so the talent disparity was greatly reduced. A running game would help us win 3 or 4 of our remaining games.

FYI, TCU wasn't ranked when we play them.

Oh yeah, I forgot, UNT was such a formidable opponent. What changed is that we finally had a QB that played semi acceptable. Even though the teams we have played were ranked, their defenses are middle of the road except for Baylor. We shouldve at least scored 20 in all of the games except Baylor this year

I think they just took the receiver's reads out of June's Run N Shoot. Looked to me like QB knew exactly where he was going with the ball on each play. Did he find a secondary receiver? The ball was thrown in 3 seconds all day. Seriously

With that comment we'll just ignore anything you have to say in the future. TCU's defense is middle of the road you say? Clueless

I saw the exact same routes and throws as we've always seen. Also saw a lot less pressure from an AAC level DLine as well as less talented AAC level DB's

@footballdad Yeah since OU is not lighting them up right now at their place or anything... A&M just gave up 48 to Miss St... UNT currently giving up 42 pts and counting to Indiana.

122nd Total Defense

105th Scoring Defense

If they let us dink and dunk our way down the field then we'll put up some points though we're not likely to stop them.
