Dammit. I was hoping to see what they would run from that "I" formation.

When did Ressel get bad?

Playing OU is an endless cycle of saying "This is a big series", then "Damn" five minutes later.

Egnew is still on the team? I thought he graduated.

Kind of disappointing to run the ball as well as we have and not have a tighter game. If Franklin had been able to hit a couple more deep passes earlier it would be close. The D line has been a disappointment rushing the passer all year, but otherwise I'm happy with where the team is at. Oh and Ressel needs to get his confidence back.

I didn't get to watch, how did James look?

I didn't get to watch, how did James look?

He had an incredible first quarter and a bad rest of the game. The caveats: his pass protection was poor, the receivers didn't help him out much other than Moe, and OU's secondary is really really really good. He rebounded a little in the 4th quarter during garbage time. I think it was 5 for 6 to start; then 2 for 14; then 9 for 13 to close.

Kind of a mixed bag, and he was far from the only player that had a rough game. He didn't embarrass himself.

Thx JL. I hoped for better. Maybe next year when he has some more maturity.

[JL21]

I'm not terribly worried about it. OU makes a lot of players and teams look really bad. As a sophomore on the road, he passed for 291 and ran for 101 against a defense full of NFL prospects. There's no shame in that at all.
