Just wanted to express my appreciation for the sanity of this board. After perusing a few others and the absolute nut cases that post there, it's great to have a board where disappointment and frustration can be expressed without people going off the deep end.

Part of being grown up is knowing who to shoot, when to shoot, and where the body can be disposed of. As much as I love OU football, there are things in life I'd trade 0-12 seasons forever to be able to change.

I freely admit that I got close to the deep end on Saturday night. However, the only coach I officially canned was BB which I still stand by and think is a fair assessment. The other guys are brand new and are, for the most part, working with second-tier players. I have faith that BV will get this program where it needs to be...Saturday just felt like a brick wall and not a speed bump. I also admit that most of my frustration (and over-the-top angst) is fueled by my rookie move of taking the bait and starting to believe this team was different THIS year. They may be different next year, but man I feel stupid for believing OU had an elite QB, the OL would improve, and the D was actually fixed. That's on me.
I might be a bit scarce this week. Trying to get the lawn fixed after the summer just ravaged it and I have a ton of work to do for Friday night. I lost three starters to injury this week. During our 350 yard rushing performance on Friday night we were down all three starters by the 4th Q...well, one was limping around on a sprained MCL for 1.5 quarters, so basically down 3. My son, who is sick today (102 last night, yikes) is trying to come back for this week and the other two who got dinged last week are trying to make it back as well. Also have an injured TE1. Man...this week will be interesting. Worst part is having to find a C3. Snapping the ball is hard in HS. LOL, not LOL. HA!
How fuc*ing bush league is that PA shit!? Had no idea watching on tv that that was happening. HOLY CRAP! between that, and the lights going on and off when we are getting our butts kicked. Please for the love of God and OU Football, STOOOOOP

From what I could tell on TV, thought it went a little too far. Teams are on the field and waiting for the light show to stop. There's a point where it becomes too much.

The lights are fine. The PA announcer is ridiculous. Almost worthy of being let go.

I love the lights.. They really are badass. But I think they are being used too much right now. Should be an accent to the game, and not try to "steal the show," so to speak. The Game is the show, period. Also, I think its retarded and dumb to go dark and shoot fireworks off after a TD when we are down 14 and about to lose. Thats something little bro would do. Thats not class, thats trash.

Someone mentioned White moving back inside. Wonder if the coaches will look at it? Seemed like Uggy/Stutsman were both overwhelmed. Maybe would've helped to have someone else to put in and let them see a series or two from the sidelines.
Injury status on Major? Looks like his ankle got rolled pretty hard. More work for Barnes coming up?
Is Byrd having a problem learning the offense? Wish we could get him in at guard. Seems to be one of the more physical linemen.
Vertigo and the meds they gave me to "fix" it, seem to be causing as many problems as the vertigo.
I had vertigo really bad for the 1st time in my life in 2020. I learned much later that's a symptom of Covid for some ppl. I've had it happen once since.

I like White where he is. Uggy is an issue. When he's doing nothing, Stutsman looks worse than he is. Kanak really has to show he can take at least half of Uggy's reps at present. Going forward, this team will be fine because they will have guys who can do the tasks this D requires. To me, Uggy is still a DE playing LB.

Eddie Rado said that Curtis Lofton had a heart to heart with Stutsman. Hopefully something comes of it like Travis Lewis' dad's heart to heart.
