5 just dropped the ball in the end zone, did I miss something, what did they flag him for post TD?
Took helmet off

Been slow whistles the last 3 days on calling plays down. Quick whistle looks like it helped DeSoto with what looked like a fumble

One of SOC’s offensive linemen is in bad need of an extra long t-shirt to tuck in his pants.
Yep. Listed at 370. He tackled more than he blocked.

Wasn’t an upset at all… Hawley was better in all aspects of the game.
If most people pick team "A" to win but team "B" wins, then that is an upset. Yes Hawley was the better team hence that is why they won. But again, most people expected a different outcome for one reason or another.

Respect for the Brock coach, classy move
What did he do? We left right after the winning kick was made.

Yes it was. Better than the rest of the games today.
Not even close. Far and away the best game so far today.

Disappointing for the kid individually. My first thought was I hope he’s not Sr…and gets to finish his last game of high school football. They definitely had a great year.
This right here. I know it can open up a can of worms on targeting but some of the calls need to be taken into context at this level.

I am confused. Have seen none of these teams play. Pregame Poth looked good throwing the ball. In game, not so good at all.

Sounds like the Jordan Shipley plan while he was at Texas. Seemed like he was there forever. And...did you know that Shipley's dad and McCoy's dad were college roommates?!
-
Texas was too soft on some of the easy baskets right under the goal. They failed to go up with authority. They took the pass underneath and did a couple of head fakes allowing the defense to collapse around them before they finally tried to take it up.
The missed 1 and 1 near the end of regulation for Texas was the nail in the coffin that prevented Texas from finishing them off.

I am reading that some teams may have to cancel their bowl games if they continue to lose players to the portal.
I can believe that the NIL is controlling the portal--it's poor planning by the NCAA when they allowed it, without restrictions. If I was giving a NIL contract to a student athlete--they would have to graduate from the university before they got their money.....with an undergraduate degree in something other than underwater basket weaving. But that is just me, I don't have money to throw around to athletes and have them run off after a year.
I'd really like to see what some of these NIL contracts look like.....But that is just me.
I would suspect that there is some type of contract that exists however, it seems at this point, that they may be loosely worded or not enforceable. I would also hazard to guess that moving forward that the money people will become more savvy and put more strict provisions and or conditions in the contracts to restrict the mercenary traits of the current system.

Like most d1 athletes, they were starters and studs in high school. Thought they would get more playing time, since they aren’t getting it, they want to take their talents somewhere that they can play.
They don’t know how to work for playing time.
I get this. But, there are some that are starters at their present school but are looking to transfer elsewhere. Example, Sanders, the QB at Oklahoma State. Some of these I do not understand unless they believe that they can get more NIL money somewhere else.
And, like some on here like to argue, it takes time for some of these pieces to play together before it all begins to gel as a unit.

I’ve only seen TCU play a couple times this year. Once, they hit OUs qb late and injured him.
This game they’ve been hitting after plays and trying to start fights. Is this how they play? Is this how Sonny Dykes coaches?
Not sure who whines more, Sonny Dykes or Matt Campbell at ISU.

Kalkbrenner camped out in the paint on defense. Just his presence alone redirected a lot of drives to the basket.
Yes, aware of his presence down low but still surprised at the long quick 3s in lieu of working for a more manageable 2. All gas no brakes.
-
I am still amazed at how many quick 3s Texas was putting up too. Being up 11 or so late I would have expected them to work it more inside for a better shot selection. I guess that is how the game is played these days.

Storming the field is a "thing" now sprinkled in with the few "legit" (TN/Bama) reasons to storm the field.

Ewers should not throw another pass this entire game.

Sark panics....gets away from the run too quickly. That last Baylor score is on him for not controlling the clock on the previous possession with passing on first down. He has Bijan, RoJo, Keilan, Brooks at his disposal.

Going to be one of those games. A dropped Pick 6 for Texas.

#11 Texas absolutely dominates #2 Gonzaga 93-74.
Yeah, I think this team is pretty good.
Came here to post the same thing. The made Gonzaga look bad and out of sync.

And one last thing, comparing Dykes to Sark is so dumb. Don't think I've seen it here, but Dykes inherited a veteran, experienced TCU team. Texas is not that. Max Duggan had played in 38 games before Saturday. They are an undefeated top 4 team.
Again, perspective.
What is crazy about TCU is that Duggan was not the starter earlier in the year.

This season is what it is supposed to be but is frustrating to many. IMO, the general prediction was an 8-4 season. However, with the 4 losses being a combined 18 points, with two of those losses coming after having a commanding lead, it raised the expectations in many people's mind. There is plenty of blame to go around; Ewers not seeing the field in its entirety, Bijan dancing around too much, Worthy giving up on the ball, lack of Sark's second half adjustments or playcalling, defense playing soft on 3rd and 4th downs, OL not getting the push, etc. Pick any one of them or all of them. They are all contributing to the losses to some extent. Maybe it is the youth of the team? Who knows?
While it might have had short-gain advantages by putting Card in, the real investment is for next year eventhough I hate using the phrase "next year" since we live in the present and not the future. Ewers is going to have to be the man next year because the offense will be without Bijan and Rojo.
Everyone has potential, the difficulty is reality. What is Ewers really? What is Sark really? Collectively, what are the Horns? Time will tell.
Hook'em.

I believe this is number 4. They won one when I was a student there in 88.
