We had no business losing that game last night, we stuffed OU ALL 2nd half. We had the ball inside the 5 ready to take the lead twice and came up short. We all know what happened with Tech. I will say this, if we beat Nebraska which I think we can and will, and then win our bowl game and finish 10-3, I will be happy. At this point I am looking at the Horn game as a loss, they are beatable but not by A&M in Austin, not this year. I just like how we play this year.

we are good, but we will pick up next year... running two freshman cb's is hurting but the experience they are gaining is priceless... we will be losing j. scott, casey studdard, and blalock(i think) to the pros... but we have a bunch of great lineman in line, and colt looks better and better every game. he has def. impressed me

OU was handing it to A&M until the onsides kick (which IMO was a stupid decision) and the personal foul that resulted in the 15 yard penalty that resulted in the automatic first down. Just before that penalty, OU had stopped A&M dead in its tracks. The only touchdown A&M had was a GIFT from OU. Hell, Allen Patrick had over 100 yards of rushing just in the first quarter!
A&M got ALOT of lucky breaks. I personally counted at least 5 times McGee threw the ball away because OUs D was about to hammer him. Yet they only penalized him for it ONCE.
IMO, A&M got outplayed and outcoached, and the score did not really reflect the game.
Last night was not a good night for our back-up quarterback, he usually looks alot better than that. Although it was abit of an ugly game, a W is a W and OU has beat A&M for the 7th time in the last 8 years. Now, no more whining about how A&M should have beat OU, please...

Most definitely by the bowl game. And he WILL play.

I see what you UT fans mean about A&M's *moral* victories

Looks like it will another 2 years before the ags will have a shot at OU cause hey sure as hell ain't gonna get it done in Norman
Fact is you are gonna have a fish QB, and the guy running for you last night will be the same guy next year, who in my mind is very good. Im not gonna argue with you. I think we should have beat you, thats my opinion. Luckily for you your team won so why even entertain me? We outrushed you, we outpassed you. We had the ball longer, we completely shut your team down on 3rd downs. Our stupid POS coach lost the game for us, shoulda pounded you twice up the middle on 3rd and 2, and should have gone for it on 4th and 5 with 3:30 left, end of story. Ill bet you right now we beat you guys up in Norman next year, how about $100 bucks?

And Thompson (the quarterback for OU) WILL NOT be back next year because his elgibility runs out after this season.

Don't discount Sam Bradford. The kid is good. As far as running back. I think anyone can run behind that O-line, which if I remember correctly most if not all will be back next year.

There is alot of talent in the Big 12, OU, A&M, Nebraska, and Texas all have the talent it takes to be championship teams, OU got the most out of it's talent in the past, now Texas is doing it.
I was looking up the stats and on the Big 12 site and they have a great stats sheet that covers all the teams since 96. Including individual players awards and Big 12 as a whole in bowl games. Here is the link incase you don't already have it. It's PDF.

I'm betting that Fran will probably stay. He's doing just good enough to keep from getting fired. And meantime, fatten up his retirement accounts. That's the impression I get from him. He's not stupid, he just doesn't care. Sounds like me and my job

He does not have the feet Lane has. Not many huge backs do. Lane takes little baby steps that get him moving downhill, it helps him make cuts and if by chance a defender gets in his was he simply smashes them and rolls on, you rarely see him go down by a single tackler. Sure would have been nice to see him on 3rd and 2 against OU. I looked at an interesting stat, Lane has been stoped on ONE 3rd or 4th and short this year, and that was against ARMY when a DB snuck in on a blitz on 4th and 1. What Fran was thinking rolling Mcgee out on 3rd and short is beyond me.
