I would say young in the sense that they haven’t played a lot of football collectively and we’re also basically in search of a LG that can actually play consistently. I’m still a Neto fan not much of a Stroh fan honestly.

I’m worried about this one too. I’ve got 10-7 Florida. I think that our offense is just not dynamic like we hope this year and o-line is still so young.

Sign him now.

Call his bookie

They’re gonna do it with all the meth strength they can afford

Haha, true. Unless they really want to violate hippa and lose all credibility by violating patient confidentiality then sure it’s real. Let’s say the prognosis is accurate regardless of the post being real. Let’s see what Mateer can do with his throwing hand still recovering. A better conspiracy theory is that they made up the surgery angle to give him a week off before Texas and help him look better if he plays the “hero” coming back from a “surgery”. If they win making him the clear Heisman favorite and OU the greatest team ever ever with an SEC and national championship basically in the bag.

Is Reed improved? Or is he benefiting from bad secondary play (ND) on a few explosives and horrid offensive teams (Auburn)? That ND game he was 17-37 and Auburn was 15-22 with a QBR of 35.1.

Indeed

Hell yes! As an Arkansas and Texas grad I have to say this was long overdue. Back to the good ole days @Gerry Hamilton your move

I do wish the major sports like basketball, soccer, tennis, swimming, track and field, volleyball etc would have a champions game where the two champions played for ultimate supremacy at the end of each season. It would be very eye opening to see that head to head competition I think.

Stay away from the west end. It really is a lot like Austin when I was growing up in the 90s. Bardstown road, Cherokee Park and Frankfort Ave are all great areas centrally located with lots of great food and activities!! NuLu downtown is great too!

Honestly, don’t mess with staying in Lexington. It’s easier and cheaper to stay in the east end in Louisville or in Cincinnati. It is a bit of a drive but it’ll be cheaper and have more to do than you would in Lex. I lived in Louisville and love it up there just not in the cards to get back up there this year.

Oh I think he’ll be on the field against Texas. Not sure what game the criminals are playing but they are up to something.

This is our best year yet haha!! Seriously though, I think part of it does have to do with the pre-snap movement and motion that forces o-line to be in stances longer than others and with teammates moving around in their peripheral vision plus defensive adjustments. The holding is just lack of awareness IMO, these guys (DJ Campbell I’m looking at you) need to learn to let go and take a shorter gain or even a loss rather than setting us back so far behind the chains. Special teams on return specifically is to just leave it alone if there’s ANY chance of a block in the back or a hold. I think it is a lot about teaching these guys to trust their technique AND athleticism as well as the guys around them. Also, maturity, knowing that making fewer mistakes in critical moments sets you up for success AND the added benefit of forcing your opponent to have to perform without making a mistake. As a baseball player we took pride in the teams that were successful at committing the fewest errors and making all the fundamental plays. THAT takes a team from good to great and makes those tough games come out in your favor.

Damn skippy

Not against us but against the Aggies maybe.

That was a hell of a catch too even though he was beat he hustled and more often than not that ball gets dropped

Love this!! Talk about a real DUDE!!

Agree!! I have watched the UTEP game and Stroh was atrocious on run blocking and liked absolutely lost out there more often than not. It’s good we’ve gotten him experience, but I think we need to get Neto’s mean streak out there and push some B’s around!!

No he’ll be grandfathered in 😂😂😂

Haha! I’m confident he will and be the first manning to win both a natty and Heisman!!

The road to the SWC championship runs through Lubbock. They’re still waiting to see who’s on the road and when anyone is coming…but it’s in Lubbock lol

The stache has to go

Agree he got smoked on the goal line run in the first quarter by #7 that stuffed Gibson for a loss.
