3rd and a mile... Going to have to rely on the D to get the ball back.

Jesus... the amount of penalties that we have is unforgiveable. 9 penalties for 68 yards right now.
Edit: Make that 10 for 72

Whoa... not sure I would have gone for it on 4th there like Wells did.
This drive will be the game. TD or bust.

Just stupidity... right when you had an opportunity to take the game from them.
Tech is trying to give this game away and we just won't take it.
Honestly, had we scored there in the 3rd, I would feel hopeful. The way it is now... we just don't have what it takes to come back.

Not sure the last time we got a safety, but hey, we'll take it.

Three and out to start the 3rd when you're down two touchdowns. Typical 3rd quarter crap.

Duece Vann has 7 carries for 20 yards.
They know how to shut us down. We're not going to win another game this year.

If we don't capitalize here and end up in the endzone, then just pack it in and start making your way back to Manhattan.

Stan and Weber just gave an honest assessment of the situation. If we don't stop them here in the next 6:19, then the game will be over. We won't be coming back in the second half.

Quick peek on the Tech forums... you'd think they were the ones down 21-7. Not sure I understand that.

« on: October 23, 2021, 11:31:24 AM »If we can stay within reach by halftime and if juggalos take too long in the parking lot at halftime, we can make a run in the 3rd.
LOL we haven't scored a point in the 3rd quarter in god knows how long.

Close loses to top 10 teams are one thing. Getting blown out on the road and looking like a Prince team like we're doing today is quite another. I'm still waiting to see what we look like after the KU game, but the way this one is going I may flip sides fairly quickly.

« on: October 22, 2021, 09:01:52 AM »There are two "why did they do it" questions in there. One is about the particular reasons Texas and OU decided to move. Another is about whether or not they made a good decision.
If you're a detached administrator only caring about the bottom line, then hell yes, it was the right decision. If you're a fan, I it absolutely was the 100% wrong decision. However, college sports fans will absolutely willingly eat crap and love it if their AD and the media tell them to.
If you're OU, you've been the big dog in your conference for literally 70 years. Nebraska's best success came when OU had three straight bad coaches, as soon as OU found a good coach again Nebraska and Texas became absolutely second rate citizens. OU got to absolutely destroy your conference comprised of your closest neighbors. Now they're coming into a new conference, predominantly not your neighbors and they aren't going to respect them and they are going to want to wreck their crap. OU goes from running a conference of 70 years to becoming Tennessee and Texas A&M.
Texas already has the biggest budget in college athletics, what the hell do they need more money for. OU ran the football, UT ran the conference, had their own network and everything. Business wise, they are just an also ran in their new conference, no one will placate them or genuflect to them. For football they went from being a clear #2, no matter how overrated they are, to fighting for scraps with Arkansas, A&M, and Ole Miss.
This. All of this.
Yep, it would beif they get pissed at the SEC in a few years and break up the league.
I am fully convinced at this point that UT will get pissed at the SEC in under 5 years and both OU and UT will regret their decision... just like every other school who left the Big XII, but they won't break up the conference and they won't leave.

Jesus... how is this thread receiving this much attention!? CK isn't going anywhere, and the people calling for his head already have such a short memory. We've been extremely competitive this year and if Thompson had been able to stay healthy, both this year and last year, this isn't even a conversation topic.
None of you seem to remember how frustrating and infuriating the last 2-3 years of LHC Bill Snyder football were. The records don't reflect all the holes that were showing up that we all saw.
If we go 3-0 over the next three weeks, which is very possible, then all this goes away anyways. This weekend's game is critical to the rest of the season though.
Now, if we only go 1-5 over the next 6 games, then maybe we can start asking some questions, and a coordinator or two gets changed. However, right now people are getting all worked up over some close loses.

The Bearcats were ranked eighth and placed behind a Florida team that fell three times.
All those words and none of them addressed the fact that Cincinnati is currently in CFP position in the polls and the computer models, they're 4th in the Massey composite.
https://masseyratings.com/cf/compare.htm
It's flat dishonest to write an article about this and not point out that Cincinnati's profile is unlike every G5 team before them. They are so astronomically ahead of any predecessor that it isn't fathomable for another G5 to reach #3 in the polls and #4 in the computers.
Any idea if it is likely they maintain that ranking? I don't know how much their conference SOS will hurt them compared to P5 teams.
Based upon previous history and looking at the current top 25, I'd say they still stand a good chance at making it.
SEC: Only Georgia, Alabama, and Kentucky are still in the hunt. Kentucky and Georgia play this weekend with the winner likely being division champ. Alabama already has one loss and has to win out including the CCG to make it in. While a scenario or two exists, the SEC is likely only getting one team in this year.
big 10: Iowa, Michigan, Ohio State, M-State and Penn State are all still technically in the hunt. Big ten east is simply loaded. Unfortunately for them, they all still have to play each other and so the losses are going to mount up. A scenario exists where two teams get it, but it's very unlikely. big 10 is only getting 1 in this year
Pac: Hahaha
Big XII: Oklahoma and OSU are the only teams with a shot unless Baylor flips a switch and suddenly wins out in convincing fashion, and OSU would need a little help too. Otherwise, BlowU is it unless they lose the CCG.
Remaining teams still technically in the hunt but that can't leapfrog Cincinnati without other teams losing: ND, Coastal, Oregon, Wake Forest, and Arizona State.
So yeah, if I'm Cincinnati and I win out, I like my chances of making the playoff!
Just an update.
SEC: Georgia and Alabama are now it, and Bama can't afford to stumble at all the rest of the way. Kentucky and Ole Miss making it in is possible, but not really plausible.
big 10: Iowa gonna Iowa. It's possible for them to still get in, but most likely they end up like 2018 Ohio State who also only lost to Purdue that year. The other 4 still have to play each other.
Pac: Still LOL
BigXII: BlowU and Okie Light still in the hunt. Baylor still has an outside shot but has to win out convincingly to make it happen.
Arizona State dropped a game to Utah, so they're pretty much out of it. So the only remaining teams still technically in the hunt but that can't leapfrog Cincinnati without other teams losing: ND, Coastal, Oregon, and Wake Forest.
So far, still looking good for future conference member Cincinnati.
