he should’ve started all game .. I mean I get it I love Hollywood but he was hurt period. Rambo looked great for his minimal playing time.
Rambo

This , starting Rambo in place of Hollywood wold have been worth 14 points ....
I agree. Hollywood stunk it up tonight. They can't be telling us that they don't have one other receiver on the roster that isn't as good as a limping Brown. He dropped several passes
Would be nice to see our so called Great O line block in the running game as well. Sermon 19 yds on 9 carries.
Sermon isn’t a great runner through the tackles he’s a sideline to sideline guy which aggravates me. The holes were there ... Kennedy Brooks found them at times but Bamas closing speed it’s great
Sermon has a bad habit of wanting to dance around too much. You would think a guy of his size would be more of a north and south runner
Hollywood had very bad hands in this game coupled with Murray not being deadeye accurate made for several missed opportunities.
Rambo showed he has good hands but his blocking is not up to par. A WR gets say 7 passes thrown their way. That's 50-70+ plays they need to block or decoy. That's one of the issues I have with Calcetera. Lamb is the only great WR on every play. Blocking, catching and decoy.
But given his Experience/Playing Time, I'd like to think that will improve, IF he is as coachable as he seems...
Yea he’s the best all around receiver on the team and was the best receiver out there last night to be honest
CeeDee had the best game last night IMO. He made tough catches...and clocked their LB.
With a name like Rambo, the guy has to be physical, we just have to unleash his beast.
Lamb was the best receiver on the field Saturday without a doubt.
Rambo will have a good career at OU when all is said and done.
I agree we should have blocked better. On the other hand we haven’t faced a defensive line anywhere close to Alabama in terms of pure strength and physicality. No one close. Just my opinion.
We blocked well in passing situations. I mean brooks had 6 rushes for 35 yards he was doing fine.. we just didn’t run the ball as much. We really couldn’t in the hole we were in. Brooks clearly has better vision than sermon... he found the creases that were made.
You are correct about Brooks' vision better than Sermon. In an interview with John Riggins, Riggins was asked what is the best asset a runner can have and he said "his eyes". That is why Brooks had many of those long runs, seeing the hole and running to it with conviction.
