According to the talking heads, OU was 5th in passes thrown behind the line of scrimmage leading into this game.
I agree........Lebby is inconsistent and BV, although improved, still seems to make dumb game management decisions.
Unfortunately your correct. OSU worries me as a fan, WV is a 60-40 type game where I believe OU is a tad better but…. BYU in Provo is likely a 50-50 game at this point and TCU is about like WV. So I see 2 games that OU should win and 2 that is a pure tossup. I shudder to think the heat BV gets if OU loses all 4 or even 3 of 4.
If I was BV I would walk up to Lebby, ask for his playbook and rip that page out of it and also the jet sweep set both ripped out pages on fire then throw his playbook on the ground and tell him to pick it up.
Lots of blame in this game to go around, last 2 weeks defense has given up 60 points, BV still cannot manage a game (learning on the job)
and we have a very easy schedule this year as well. We continue to have at least one unexplainable loss every year
Yes you are correct open middle field a bunch and a nothing burger from Lebby. Some of the veteran Sooner fans around me were quite pissed off by Lebby’s lunkhead coaching by the brutal end. WTF Venables you give this guy your confidence. Rack up useless yards and always in a hurry? How about using clock properly Lebby??
This is worth the time it takes to listen to these guys. You don’t have to agree with everything they say but they make a lot of sense. Much of which I agree with.
WR run plays absolutely infuriate me. Lebby ran that play with Farooq, at least 3 times. Also, trying to force the ball down the middle wasn't working but Lebby is to big of a meat head to draw up a play action pass. Open receiver's across the middle and down field also! Questionable play calling would not be an accurate statement. It was absolutely terrible play calling that was responsible for our first loss.
How about actually try to pick up a first down after what should have been the game sealing INT. That was play calling at its worse. For goodness sake Lebby, KU still had 3 TO. Just one FD would have won the game

and Lebby actually had the nerve to say they were trying to pick up the first down. Trying by running the ball up the middle 3 times in a row? Lame
Chaps all of us if we are being honest with ourselves
Git some sunlight son. Can't see the world with yer head in yer keister. Somethin yer father shoulda taught ya. Thank me later. 👍
I'm okay with it.... some. But we have two freshman running backs of enough quality that we recruited them. I cannot imagine two things. I cannot imagine those freshman running backs being productive fifth year seniors at OU. As many RB's as we seem to be recruiting, if they're elite we ought to be able to play at least one. I know they're both freshmen who weren't here in the spring. Can't imagine number two: Can't imagine that a young running back can't be taught running back plays sufficiient to replace Farooq at RB.
I don't think OUr lack of a vertical passing game is on Bedenbaugh. I did enjoy Walker mowing em down though. That's the progress I want to see. Why didn't Lebby let Dillon chunk the ball downfield Plaino?
