The Pokes move to 4-0 with Baylor on deck.

Didn’t get to watch much of game but I give it up to the play calling and I guess to gundy for a pretty good game.

Thank God my prediction was wrong again :rofl:
Glad to see the offense finally come to life (if only for a half).

I glad for the win and there were some positives I’ll name later, but do we have to suck so bad on special teams? Two fumbles on a return, two missed field goals, and a return for a touchdown given up?

Yes need to get presley out of there

Great first half minus the stupid special teams blunder and wussy play calling to end the half with a KState field goal. Second half was just awful. No offense. Thank god for our defense. Still need a special teams coach. It’s obvious for everyone except Gundy and Jake.

That was not bad play calling.
Ever since that late flag in the first half ever one want to do bone head play.
Gundybwas still calling pass plays late.
We had 4 drives went into ksu territory. 3 of them were end by bone head plays. The other end with the game.
I lost count of bone head plays.

Ur ou team squeezed it out.

I agree, didn’t do much in the 2nd half but it all kicked in on the last drive to put the game away. One things for sure, a whole lot better than beating WVU by 3 at home………….

Hey I was waiting for WV to score so I could hear Sooner fans b*tch on the Sports Animal about it (One of my favorite things to do). Not everyone that demands a change for the team to play better is an OU fan Roberto.

I think Tulane and miss state both lost.

They definitely regressed this game. The missed FGs would be hard for an NFL kicker.

Looking at the Big 12 scoreboard and not scoring during the second half leaves me thinking we might just win only two more games.
I attribute this to the injuries we have. we can’t go far as the season goes on just having one RB to count on. Warren is going to get fatigued and is going to take a lot of punishment.
But the defense continues to shine and that is great to watch. For so many years the pass coverage was horrible. But it looks great now. The first half looked like what we have come to expect from Cowboy football. Not sure where it went the second half. Have to give credit to K State defense during the second half. Listening to the Gundy post game interview it sounds like he is planning to play the second half to not lose instead of to win. That strategy won’t work against teams with good offense. Another reason my crystal ball is showing only two more wins. And fans have probably underestimated Texas for this season…

I said last week I hope we get 6 wins. Alot of stuff going on. That’s the only thing I agree with.

No Orange Power yell in first half. Tried to get it going in second half on third down defense. Cheerleaders finally started it in 4th quarter but when we were on offense. We need Mr. Orange Power bad or someone that can carry on tradition and wear Orange jumpsuit!
