BV TV Show This Week ...

I gotta say, I haven't watched many of his TV shows until tonight ...
But I think watching it helped me feel a little bit better. It shows us just how one mental lull or blown assignment here or there in so many of our games made such a huge difference in what really could have been an 8-4 or 9-3 season - and then, we're all feeling a lot better.
I realize that's football, but it also makes you realize - combined with the futt-bucking we've taken from Big 12 officiating all year - that we might also be the most unlucky 6-6 team in the nation.
On top of the untimely blunders, not one significant call or late-game break went our way, all season.
Getting BV's take while going over the highlights, you can tell in his voice it's killing him - especially on D - watching guys make the same mistakes over and over. Or seeing one of your best defenders all season (Bowman) become your worst for one night.
And you can also tell there are maybe some offensive play calls he doesn't agree with ... like the Stoops pass to DG in OT, when BV says something to the effect of "I really don't like getting our QB1 hit like that."
Worth a watch if you need a small pick-me-up. If BV can stay positive through all this mess, I can at least try.😀

Crazy OU defensive stats

-Ranked 5th in the country in Tackles for Loss

-Ranked 6th in the country in Interceptions

-Ranked 114th in Total Defense


I was shocked to hear someone say we were ranked so high in tackles for loss..I literally can’t remember more than a few tackles for loss all year.

And it doesn’t seem possible to be so horrible at defense if you are living in the backfield and picking off a lot of passes.

Gabriel lack of success on money downs

His 1st and 2nd down numbers are right up there with the previous OU guys.

But the wheels fall off on 3rd and 4th for whatever reason. 104.3 rating on 3rd down passing is horrrible. Really struggles moving the chains.

Cheez It Bowl? Do You Think Our Brand Gets Us a Better Bowl?

I have seen several bowl projections for us all over - however this one makes decent sense. If the BIG 12 Bowl connections don't have to pick by record then why wouldn't we be the top choice after TCU/KSt/Texas... That would put us in the Cheez It Bowl -- I am sure @Carey Murdock @Eddie_Rado and @BPrzybylo would love a trip to Orlando over Christmas break... haha

A&M Wants Lebby or Briles As New OC

I’m just telling you what I heard. A&M fired their “OC” today and want to adopt the Briles offense. Both Lebby and Briles want assurances in writing and whatever else have you that Jimbo will let them do what they want. I heard it on the McCready and Siskey livestream that is currently airing on Youtube. They podcast isn’t even uploaded yet. I’ll come back around and link it when it’s over. Say what you want, but McCready is dialed in on coaching search stuff. He heard that from somewhere.

Crimson and Cream NIL CEO interview - questions answered

This may have been posted in a one of the NIL threads, but deserves its own. Interview with the CEO of C&C NIL. Very informative. Sorry to publicize another podcast, but it's worth listening to.

Highlights:

- This is the only NIL that can do big money deals
- There are plans to make this the only NIL, should be finalized by the end of the year
- We are behind EVERY single SEC school in dollars raised and organization
- Big announcement within two weeks teased (Maybe the mergers? But doesn't sound like it)

Was Aggy able to...

...potentially close the portal floodgates with the win over LSU this weekend? Suddenly all the Aggy fans are talking about how bright the future is down there with Weigman and that class they bought. Two weeks prior they were all cashing in their piggy banks and establishing a go-fund-me for Jimbo's buyout.

Guess we will see on Dec 5 when the portal opens since they aren't going to a bowl game...but seems like they potentially averted some level of disaster with that win. FUBK!
