It definitely isn't better.

Bond is a really good kicker. But it's been a crazy day.

I don't really trust sports anymore with all the gambling. Just too many opportunities for corruption.

What a ghastly offensive PI call on Auburn. Wow.

And maybe in the playoffs. Could be a wild few weeks.

Ugh that injury looked bad for Scooby.

And create a new "tradition" called Bon Voltage.

They have a pretty good baseball team. For a while it was moved to DI because they kept beating the smaller schools so badly.

@GQ03 My wife went to Le Moyne. It's a Jesuit college in Syracuse.

I think their defense generating points off turnovers is the biggest factor. Our defense can handle their offense, but if they generate pressure on Quinn it will be tough sledding.

#4 in points per game at 11.9 That leads the SEC. I don't think we expected that when our move to the SEC was announced a couple of years ago.

They dun r-u-n-n-o-f-t

They're playing sandstorm like every 10 minutes.

Timeout after a 9 yard run on first down? Seems ... uh, ill-advised.

Beamer going to throw deep 3 times in a row here.

Kobe Black looked really physical live. People in the stands were talking about him quite a bit. The toughest part of college football is the attrition. You start with a full roster and it gets depleted throughout the season. We've had so many key players suffer season ending injuries. The only real chance to combat the attrition is to develop the freshmen so that they can play effectively down the stretch. Kobe is one of those guys.

Driving in tomorrow morning. Thanks for posting this! See y'all there.

I want to drive in for the game, but it will depend on the kickoff time. Anyone have any insight into the likely window? Hoping for 2:30 or later. Noon would be pretty tough to do.

I don't think it has to do with getting hit. I think it's hesitancy to really throw the ball with his full motion. He only stepped into one throw on Saturday, and was fine getting hit on the goal line for the final TD.

As long as we don't let Hawkins run free all afternoon, we should win comfortably. But we have a history of letting backup Sooner QBs kick our butts. I did like Sark's comment in yesterday's presser about giving different looks and how the coverage on the back end has to sync with the pressure. A football version of Le Carre's masterwork Zone, Man, Blitz, Spy.

We still only have one baseball team, right? Sheesh.

I think we'll mix in a few plays that look like WR screens but have someone who will get behind the DB's crashing the blockers. Break tendency to create explosives.

Talk of Owens being out is finally official. (If this is official - I'm not sure.) I'm sure the Questionable and Doubtful list will not be released until the very last minute.

5 seems a bit much for first round. But first two rounds maybe. Still, that's a world away from where we have been since 2010.

My first reaction, before I read yours, was "I feel attacked". 😄
