College Football Bowl Game Thread (Dec. 27)

[texcoyote15]

I don’t know how they pulled Fasusi.  There has never been a point this year when it looked like they were on their way up and that they were going to be good in the next couple of years. I don’t think it was money because he was going to get money anywhere he went. Idk but I would have wanted to go somewhere where it looks like they were going to win and win fairly big. I just don’t get it.

Wonder if the Sooners were wearing these T-Shirts today?

OK - watching Diego Pavia continues to be fun.  He reminds me of Sam.

Runs like a fb, doesn't slide, lowers his shoulder, blocks linebackers for his RB, and passes well enough.

34-30 is a score that will live forever in the history of Longhorn football in ways that I didn’t think were possible.  Sark is already a Longhorn legend in my book.

You’ll get to watch him another year after he sued the NCAA that JUCO years shouldn’t count against eligibility. 

He’s not good enough for the NFL but can collect more NIL now. 

Maybe he will sue the NCAA next for unlimited eligibility regardless of age. That will be great if we had players make a career out of playing college football.

It’s just a matter of time before someone tries that.

I guess OU is playing short-handed and all, but going for two in that situation is a serious underdog move.

They don’t get to have it both ways. They’ve been telling us since the portal opened that they’re not losing any key contributors, that they’re all either backups or injured players. If that’s true, they don’t now get to claim they’re shorthanded for the bowl game.

Someone photoshop navy into that shirt lol

[akrupa23]

Man, I've dreamed of days like this for a decade...

Oh man. Missed the game, saw the score earlier when OU was up. Time on deck is 1436, saw the final score and OU still sucks. Congrats to the butter bars of the Navy (jk only the Marines)

Don’t worry. Navy won and no excuses matter to anyone except maybe some delusional Sooner fans…lol

I turned that game off. Referees made it unwatchable.

[Waxahorn]

What is Fasusi thinking?

[Tuco Ramirez]

Well, Tech showed up tonight. I’m sure overpaying for a DT is going to make all the difference. 😂

I was at the game. About 80-85 percent ou fans. It was glorious watching them file out pissed and making excuses.

Imagine trying to be Brian Bosworth without The Boz or Barry Sweitzer. Also, the shirt should read Oklahoma Only Fears Tornados.

When Burnt Veg gets fired he can enter the portal.

So… do we root for Arkansas or Tech? Personally I want Arkansas to manhandle Tech 

[4thandFive]

Neither team is really pulling away. Looked like Arkansas might, then they forgot how to tackle.

[Tuco Ramirez]

Piggy was killing them then they quit.

@Gerry Hamilton let me know how your Aggies do tonight I’ll be sleeping 😴 🛌
