I really didnt think that A&M played that good of a game. We never capitalized on their mistakes and had our share of defensive breakdowns. But yes we cant play on the road. Its pretty frustrating.

I'm an OSU grad, and I like both teams. When both teams do well it makes our state look good. But I can't stand the current set of coaches they have at OU. If they were at another school and looked this bad they'd be gone already, IMO.!

I support both too, and agree completely on making our state look good, however, if I have to choose, I will always pick the Cowboys first. I didn't watch the OU game, but I heard it was ugly.

I'm pretty burned out with the screen passes too. And I'm pretty burned out that everytime Venables consistently blitzes the QB they are pretty good about sacking his ass, or disrupting the play and getting a pick. And Venables still reverts back to that prevent crap and gets owned.

They come out in the 3rd quarter and start playing smash mouth football and get the job done on both sides of the ball. Then they go and abandon the smash mouth run game that was clearly working and go back to the screen pass and they just quit blitzing? :faint:

Stoops needs to take some heat for the play calling of his coordinators. But Venables ain't going anywhere, he's Associate HEAD coach! Mike Stoops had the defense dominating everyone. Hell they were the reason they won several games. They carried a decent but at times struggling offense. How long has it been since the defense won a game when the offense was having a tough time? I know darn good and well that overall the players we have today are every bit as good as they were when Mike Stoops called the plays and probably a good bit better.

Wilson ought to get walking papers tomorrow. Let Gundy or Heupel call the plays. Either could match Wilson. Then work a deal with Mangino or Leach for next year. What's Norm Chow doing these days?

Wilson shouldn't be allowed to get on the plane back to Norman. Let Gundy or Heupel call the plays. Either could match Wilson. Then work a deal with Mangino or Leach for next year. What's Norm Chow doing these days?

There. I FIFY

I agree with what everyone has said about Wilson. I've never played a single down on an organized football team (I was a wrestler) but I watching OU's offense, I was predicting exactly what they were going to do BEFORE they even lined up. This has been a problem with Wilson, Long and even Mangino': last year. Something needs to change or we will continue to be predictable and lose the close games

I'm a huge OU fan but you guys sound like spoiled brats. We are used to OU winning and now that OU lost a game someone is calling Bob Stoops an average coach. YOU HAVE TO GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!!! There are many a schools who would not think twice about hiring bob stoops. He is easily in the top 5 of active coaches.

A&M beat us. I agree that Kevin Wilson needs to re evaluate how he calls plays but lets not forget that he is also the O. Coordinator for the HIGHEST SCORING OFFENSE in NCAA history. How quick we are to forget. Sam Bradford is in the NFL now. Everytime we put someone under center doesn't mean they are going to be the greatest QB to ever wear crimson and cream. Sam was a once in a lifetime type player. Landry Jones will never be S.B. but he isn't the worst thing to ever happen to OU either.
