Gundy makes me sick.

Only pattern I’v seen over the last 2 or 3 years is when gundy losses he’s loosing by a lot. He has to much ego and it’s getting the best of him and osu football. Time to do the right thing and hand the keys off.

Gundy’s not as good of a coach as Venables .
It was proven today that Venables can identify problems and fix them at least for one game.

“I don’t think that’s what’s best at times for what we’re trying to get accomplished offensively.”
What are you trying to accomplish offensively? Because what I’m seeing is a 5.3 points per average in the first half against every P4 opponent so far this season.

Ou was lucky to win today. Counting on a pick 6 to win the game late in the 4th qtr is luck not coaching.

Would a pick 6 have won the game for us?

The sooner defense got consistently beat by a very average Auburn offense. That tells me that you did not watch the OU game.
So is getting a pick six against Arkansas to make sure we take Arky to OT.

Defensive Coaching: F
42 points. Multiple big plays given up - just like every game since beginning of last season. Fail.

I disagree that Bowman is not a bad QB. He is bad. KSU had great pass coverage, but Bowman was very inaccurate in his throws. Tremendous receivers with an untalented QB. And just think, next season we will be much worse. Keep Gundy, but get rid of Dunn, Nardo, and Dickey. I have no idea if Tim Rattay is effective or not. He doesn’t have much to work with. Gundy is now going to work harder. Doing what? More of the same? Give more reps to Zane. Bowman can’t help this team.

UCF has the former Arkansas QB, and the best we can do is a third stringer with a history of collapsed lungs

You always get off point. Venables was lucky to win today. That pick 6 was random. Sooners gave up 26 FD and 482 yards against a below average offense. Defense is supposed to be his specialty. If Venables offenses continue to bog down he will be let go.
And we gave up 648 yards to an average Arkansas team (which lost btw). You’re not getting the point here. Also, offense is supposed to be Gundy’s specialty. Where’s it at? I hate the Sooners just as much as the next guy, but let’s not be so biased here.

He’s clueless. If I’m Flores I’m hitting the portal.

Some genius on the game thread so I was off about how Nardo needs to go and blamed it all on the offense. 
We don’t know if Rattay gets on Bowman’s issue with his footwork, he throws more than 50% of the time when they are not set. Some players simply are NOT coachable and that may be him. Stubborn as a goat. That was a large part of his issue today when he overthrew and underthrew. If I’m the HC I’m going w/ Flores, at least he is dual threat, the rest of the way.
Last time I checked Arkansas was 10 points better than Auburn at Auburn. No worries, go back to your maniacal post game melt down.
So now we want to play the transitive game? Okay, Utah is losing 10-3 at the half to Arizona.
OU has more to work with as they have better players.
