All I told you is Baylor would be fine. Baylor lost to a bad TCU team last season. Guess who the 2021 Big 12 champions were?
You argued OSU’s case last season after less than desirable non-conference victories last season. Why am I not allowed to argue the case for a Baylor team that lost in Double OT, on the road, against a Top 25 team? This what I mean when I call you a hypocrite.
You have the attitude that if OSU does it “Well….it’s still a win. All we can do is get better!!!” and if another team in the conference does it, or barely loses you say “They got a lot of problems!!! They suck!!!”. I don’t mind you drinking the orange koolaid, but you’re getting drunk so much on it you’re going to poison yourself.
You didn’t want to blame Gundy at all for the offensive problems last season because it was “bad execution by players!!!”, but you want to blame head coaches from other schools? You’re so drunk on your own biased opinions you can’t even differentiate reality from false perception.
The reason we got better was the problems i said got reslolved. It was lack of plauers it was inexperienced players. We beat baylor. You feel your in the rite because their win ment more.
I thought they did a great job of controlling the tempo. They went fast at times, but unlike last week, they were able to slow down when they needed to, still score, give the defense rest, and eat clock.
Man. You’ll just complain about everything and see what sticks, won’t you? Then when something goes down later, you can point to one of your 75,000 complaints and be like, “see, I told you!” Or just blame recruiting again.
1&4. Sanders was good to great. Those short passes to the running back were mature. He ran well. He had 300+ combined yards and 3 TDs. He played well uptempo and slowing the tempo down. He played better than your boy Shapen.
7. Sorry another P5 team made plays… life isn’t Madden.
Were all my responses negative? Or were they true? Were there some positives? Or were they all just complaints? Am I entitled to an honest opinion? Or do I have to put orange shades on and give one?
Is recruiting better players not important to make a program better? Or should we just stick with the status quo and hope for something good to happen? What’s better to have? Hope or a guarantee?
Who do you think is a better defensive team? ASU in Stillwater or BYU in Provo? If BYU and ASU met on a neutral field who is winning? BYU also beat ASU last season. Is BYU a G5 pushover? Or are they a legitimate G5 school coming to a P5 conference now?
Did I say Sanders played terrible? Did I say he absolutely stunk the field up? Do you think a 55% pass completion is going to be enough for conference play? I can promise you we’ll be seeing better defense than we had seen yesterday.
We were ranked #5 in the country in 2009 and lost by double digits in Stillwater to a G5 team. Is Baylor bad for losing on the road to a ranked G5 team? Baylor lost to a bad TCU team last season. Who were the conference champions last season?
You act like I just complain all the time. All I do is watch the games and give an honest opinion. Baylor had 28 pass attempts and 52 rushes last night. Shapen was still able to complete 64% of his passes. So how exactly is it his fault he didn’t get to pass more? He also didn’t have any turnovers and Baylor had 14 penalties. What more do you want him to do?
You have made such an absolute clown of yourself over the past year+, that it really doesn’t matter what you say, all I hear is honks now. You downplayed pretty much every “positive,” including Sanders’s performance. You act like you’re “just being honest” and aren’t affected by being a fan like some people. Well, you’re absolutely wrong. Fans probably have a tendency to overhype their team, but you’re the type of total garbage fan who overhypes your team’s flaws and won’t give credit for a job well done.
In a group of fans, you’re only ever going to get clowned on negging your own team when we win. The only way you can get up on us is if we lose and play terribly, so that’s the miserable sack of crap you’ve made of your hobby–hoping your team loses and plays terribly so you can be right and if we win, you’re going to get dumped on for being a whiny doofus all the time.
Yea they didn’t mention Ford much but he’s starting to play like he did 2 years ago. Lacy was a stud !! I thought the DL played great except for 2 runs that were most of their yardage. We are getting better on both sides as long as Spencer doesn’t get hurt…. Hopefully Gunnar and the other kid get some snaps next week
I said this in another post but it bears repeating here. Baylor ran the ball around 50 times against BYU. The announcers made the point that perhaps Baylor is uncomfortable with their QB’s decision making. If true, I am more comfortable with playing them in three weeks. They will not be able to run 50 times against our D.
So if I come up with a realistic and appropriate response it will be honks for you? That sounds kind of immature.
What in my ten thoughts was so controversial?
So we aren’t allowed on expressing our thoughts on what this team could improve on?
I’ve always said my hope is for a Gundy and the team to be successful and win championships. Just because I’m honest with the observation of the team in a game doesn’t automatically constitute that I hope they lose. You really need to grow up.
It’s just a fan that has seen only one conference championship in like 50 years. Fans like joe know how it’s going to play out before it does so they point out the obvious everytime because it happens all the time. Some fans want to compete for championships and you got the other crowed which is very small in my opinion that just want to be talked about alittle.
Joy let me point outvwhat were talking about you and your crew. When normal fans talk, we dnt talk how great gundy is. You guys all ways lead with how bad gundy is.
Chit like that. And what most people hate is you guys repeat it over and over. Like title bedlam and recruiting.
We all know about these things. It wont change anything, by talking about it. We are still better of then we ever have been. What i cant understand how gundy has had us in the top 2 stops 7 years in the last 13 years, how you think we wont do better. 1 year texas beat us out 4 years ou beat us out. 2 years we had the best record. Thats competitive. When they leave you think we wount compete.
Fans like Joe said we were only going to win four games last year because he’s a miserable person who gets his jollies hating on his “favorite” team. Fans like Joe are watching the best years our team has ever had and are miserable about it. We’re on a good trajectory here, just enjoy it… or pick a different team.
Go back a team that wins conference titles all the time. You don’t like the coach. You think he sucks at recruiting, so you don’t like the players. You complain about the offense and defense, so you don’t like the coordinators. The coach that you hate loves and has the full support of the administration, so you don’t like them. You like literally nothing about the program, so go away. Do you just look good in orange? Go be a Clemson fan. Gundy is going to be here for another decade. You’ve said he’s incapable of change, so everything you hate is going to be here for ten years. Spare yourself and everyone else and go away.
Maybe we know Gundy is not capable of winning anything other than 10-12 games each season. All the while staying in 3rd - 5th place in our own conference every year. Sprinkle in a year here and there out of 17 when we finish in the top 2. If Gundy was a championship coach he would have proven himself by now. Meanwhile, we have a logo too, but it is rarely at the top of anything. And when we are hyped by the media, Gundy finds a way to lose games that could propel him into conference title talk. Based on the way Texas played, they will destroy OSU. That’s not being a bad fan. That’s being realistic. The Texas D Line was all over Young the entire game. We could put 10 of our players on the line and probably still wouldn’t be able to keep Texas out of the backfield. The entire ASU game was very boring. Running game looked pretty decent. Sanders was average at best. I knew game 1 was a fluke. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut from time to time. Defense is still extremely suspect. Not impressed so far.
In the alternate universe where you have realistic and appropriate takes, it might be honks. I might be a being of pure energy who doesn’t process sound. I might own a cupcake orchard and ride a dragon to my frozen mansion on the sun in the imaginary world where you say anything approaching either realistic or appropriate.
It was just a list of backhanded insults disguised as compliments. This football game was not an out-of-your-league blonde girl you were trying to pick up at Willies, you don’t have to neg it. Also, stop picking up girls that way. There’s already a girl out there with low enough self-esteem to go for an obtuse, gaslighting troll and she’s just waiting to make the worst decision of her life. Just be patient.
Yeah. In good faith. You can do a lot of things in good faith if you take your red rubber nose off. Saying things like “I can’t complain about the D line” is another way of saying “Man, the D line really played a great game today” because they did and then you found a way to complain anyway. You are the Picasso of whining.
I’ve always said I’m a billionaire playboy and the real Lord of the Dance, but reality and my actions have sadly undercut that mission statement. For instance, when you jumped on during the Notre Dame game to crap on the team before it was over. You were excited about telling eeeeeeeveryone how right you were, so eager to tell eeeeeveryone how much we sucked. Then we won, and you clowned yourself. Are you eager to cheer for victory? No. You say you want to beat OU and you complained and complained about it. Everyone else was out here cheering and fist-pumping, but then you just started complaining about not winning conference titles. I do take solace in the fact that it’s probably at least as exhausting to be a malcontent as it is for eveyone else to deal with you and you can’t just put down the phone to get away from your bitter self like everyone else can.
Oh, and isn’t this Sarkisian’s second year at Texas??? And he has already assembled a team that went toe-to-toe with Alabama??? Sounds like Gundy needs to learn how to coach from Aranda (won the conference title in his second year at Baylor), and obviously Sarkisian since he has a jump on this season. Now you wonder why real fans are upset that we have only won 1 conference title in 17 years???
Sounds like @jake4 is just a narcissist that has to make sure everyone posts the way he wants them to post. No discussion. Just anger. Bless your heart.
Man. When you’re willing to make a “Texas Is Back” a-hole of yourself to be a hater. That’s the winner right there. Joe, give this man your motley crown.
Texas went toe to toe with what mite have been the best team ever the 2019 lsu team. That same texas team went 7 and 5. Joey was telling us that tulane team last year was great going toe to toe with uo. They won 1 game.
Texas has all the talent in the world.
What is this 3rd and 5th crap. We have been 3rd or better 11 of the last 13 years.
