OU is in the Playoffs? Told You So!!!

Well, we can all sit here on our keyboards and pontificate our infallible opinions about whether it was just the players or the coaches. Get your egos out of the way and just own up to the fact it was both. If you don't think the coaching had anything to do with the success of the offense, then you must think the players are a bunch of liars, because early on they all commented to reporters on the offensive "changes", how things were simplified, etc... And again, how many times this year did you scream at you television watching the QB standing there looking at the sideline with seconds ticking off of the play clock waiting for a play to get signaled in. Players played better and we had better coaching..... and yes, ST, we had JFW.

Yep, this thread is bereft of any good qualities at all.

$50 sez your comment will be misinterpreted...either deliberately, or by 'don't have a clue'...

Eh, I know, that's OK.
But if can make ONE person look up 'bereft' in the dictionary then my work here is done...
I guess a pat on the back is in order. I for one, requested your pin on top be removed after the RRS game because it seemed to be unattainable. No one would have predicted that the Texas loss put a resolve (to prove everyone wrong) in the entire Sooner coaching staff and players that we witnessed the last seven weeks and frankly, have not seen in a number of years. Very similar to 2000 although the Sooners did not lose a game that season.
Win or lose in the playoffs, the 2015 Sooner team will be one of my favorites. #8, do we dare to believe?!!!

Depends on what he sees. He didn't call the audible last year. This year he does. If the guy in the booth called the wrong audible why throw the player under the bus?
Riley took the heat for TK after the TCU game. Heupel liked to tell us how the game plan was fine, players just didn't execute... OK.
Eh, I know, that's OK.

Who is "if"? I'll keep my eye out for him and whether he can make me do anything more than a shot of some rot gut whiskey.

OK, PtLavaca...Who are YOU? Deliberate, or Clueless?
Internet football coaches? WNAS I seem to remember you being pretty critical of Heupel.
Yeppers. I was. and I along with many OU fans and the main guy himself Bob Stoops agreed.
I also just posted that no one likes to be told 'I told you so." But I did.

Okay just as long as you admit you are also an internet football coachYeppers. I was. and I along with many OU fans and the main guy himself Bob Stoops agreed.

Yes you said we had the best chance outside of Ohio State. That comment rendered your opinion nil and void.
Bereft...Opposite of Beright...

Here's hoping Coach Mike doesn't get fired as predicted after this season too...we've got some real visionaries here.
Funny, but every time I hear him discuss it, he always credits the players. Now I know you know more than Bob, but I prefer his credibility over yours.
Well I'm glad you prefer his credibility over mine, because that fits my narrative perfectly that it was in fact BOB'S decision to hold his past coaches accountable for the lackluster results on the field, rather than letting them keep their jobs as lay blame on the players not making plays. So I'm glad you hold Bob's credibility on such a pedestal, yet its fascinating how your line of thinking differs from his so greatly.
See Plaino...when Bob stands up there and praises his players instead of himself, it's called humility. But I'm not surprised that you don't recognize it.
I think you're talking about me. And as usual, you need to be corrected. I never said he would be fired. You assumed that & as usual you assumed wrong. Again. I said this would be his last season as a Sooner. There is a difference and while I'm impressed with the turn around of the defense, I plan to make a post on this subject once the season has finalized.
You were DEAD wrong about Heupel and was so embarassed by your blind faith in the wrong man, that you had to step away from the board. Heuepel is not and was not Mr. Sooner last season or any season as a Coach. I may or may not be wrong about my prediction on MS, but I can also admit when I wrong. You'll never see me bailing this board. I'll take a stand and admit it when I'm wrong. Something you have never allowed yourself to do. It's your weakness.

Senior, you don't have a clue how to wager. You should have made it for a hundred bucks at a minimum given the better than average odds someone will do one or the other.
Explained several times before. Any staff headed by Bob Stoops is the best staff in the country. That has not changed.
Lol, I never took you for someone who resorted to using a "simpleton" form of reasoning. It's one thing to call Bob one of the best, if not THE best coach in the country. He certainly has the credentials to back that up. But never just assume through "simpleton logic" that that title automatically applies to all other coaches on Bob's staff. That literally makes zero sense.
That means that while you still were calling the past coaches "the best staff in the country", they had in fact already declined in their performance and abilities, yet you had completely failed to realize and/or noticed it. Thankfully Bob has a better handle on this program than that, and actually holds his coaches accountable for their jobs, instead of simply putting everything on whether players make plays or not.
Still get SOOOO emotional. Quite a diatribe though that's pretty clearly some pent up anger and frustration. Here's hoping I never feel I need to try and defend myself against ridiculous, emotionally, blatherings from someone with your track record of integrity and lack of character. I'd hate to look as silly as you do right now.
Trust me, those of us that are on the outside looking in think that ALL parties involved in this pathetic message board feud look silly.
It seems to be the only possible way to communicate with four or five people on the board.
Don't try and blame your simpleton views of the OU football staff on others that you feel you have to lower your intelligence level to theirs. Your stance on coaches in the past has been wrong and incredibly flawed. Nothing wrong with admitting it. Even these 4 or 5 "simpletons" as you call them could even see there were issues within the staff. You see..sometimes just a little bit of common sense is what's needed, rather than trying to apply some sort of self-perceived higher intelligence about these situations.
Everything doesn't always "fit". Huepel isn't clueless to the game, he just didn't fit. And there was no place he could've coached that would've come with more expectations as a previous legend and national title winner.
Watching us last season, it was obvious we had talent, so what we've done this season is not a shock now that these guys are playing for each other and having fun. With just a few new pieces and some different moves on the board we've grown leaps and bounds.
