  1. GTFO if you don’t think Gundy is elite for what he’s done in Stillwater especially over the last decade. Literally he qualifies under your definition for point A. But you’re too busy with the big D(eion) to see reality.
  2. These ads provide such a great user experience. Love coming to browse ads. Then also having to re-scroll to where I was when an ad loads or changes.
  3. Minnesota crossovers: Mich St Mich Indiana Maryland Wisconsin crossovers: Indiana Maryland Michigan Rutgers Two easiest crossover schedules for the two teams picked as favorites to win the West.
  4. The five weeks before we play an Ohio State for them: Illinois Rutgers Purdue Indiana Bye The week before we play Michigan State: Bye
  5. How was the edit? Good enough for you? #FreeEzE #DontDoubtEzE
  6. The losses can't be the embarrassing kind. Embarrassing losses on National TV are hard to take but I haven't seen a truly embarrassing loss this season.
  7. No we can't because our offensive line isn't deep. They are playing absolutely terrible football right now. They have been dominated two weeks in a row, sure there were mistakes made but if you outweigh the man in front of you by 60 lbs and you can't drive him straight ahead on an iso play then you can't be a smash mouth team. I'm looking at you Yoshi Hardrick, Jeremiah Sirles, Jake Cotton, and Andrew Rodriguez. Man Rodriguez is severely overrated. We r relying on TMagic because he is our only viable option right now as our line is too weak and timid to push the dline off the ball. If we had Fresno States oline we would be better off. Maybe just their oline coach. Last Cotton (to my knowledge) is a high school senior this year so that means when can rid of Barney when? Would you agree that our lines are missing guys that look to kill the opponent lined up across from them every snap? I would love to see that mentality back even though it led to some unnecessary penalties.
  8. The comparisons between Crick and Suh is not fair to Crick. Crick is more like JJ Watt out of Wisconsin last year then another version of Suh.
  9. Can we play classic smash then in the mouth football? We have one proven running back (Rex) and three very promising young guys behind him (Abdullah, Heard, and Green) since this is the first year Rex will receive the majority of the carries (granted Taylor gives him the ball). We have decent depth on the O-line though that depth is filled with youth. Could this work as possible alternative then just riding the highs and lows of the T-Mart show?
  10. Crick will be a good fit at D End for a 3-4 NFL defense. I would almost like to see him play some end for us but I don't know who we would have fill in his spot at tackle. D-Line just needs to step up.
  11. Why do I feel as if we are missing guys on the team (especially down in the trenches) that look to kill the guy lined up across from them? Yes this mentality often led to unnecessary penalties but it induced fear in our opponents.
  12. We had to come back to win that game and then we still struggled to win that game. We should thank the improvement of the D under Bo that year for finishing so strong. Look at the Missouri and Oklahoma games. Those were two good defenses that year. We also had a very easy schedule that year. That offense plays weren't called by Watson that year but rather it was given to Joe Ganz. In the Clemson game when Ganz was out the offense struggled the most. Taylor Martinez is an athlete, a really good athlete. He still makes bad decisions at qb, has problems making reads, and doesn't have a good pocket presence. He has had a year of training so it's not really far to call him a freshman since he did redshirt, oh and did you forget about Burkhead last year playing as a TRUE freshman? Or there was Tommy Frazier or Ahman Green who hold the freshman records still. How about personally knowing players on the team or parts of the staff or those who work around them? Is that good enough of info for you or do you still like what you read in the papers or online? There are lots of people on this board who "know players" or "inside sources" we even had a member who personaly knew Bo Pelini's salt water aquarium guy. However I will stick to credible sources that can be found in print or online. I don't rember hearing that Ganz was calling plays in 2008 and yes we had to rally to beat Clemson but we did rally to beat Clemson thus making the arguement that Watson can score aginst good defenses. Well I remember Ganz calling the plays and when he came back in was when he got back in the game. If your giving credit to Watson for the offense that game does he also get the credit for the three turnovers off of which is all Clemson scored on? And if i remember and read right the defense was responsible for setting up the comeback by stopping a good Clemson offense lead by CJ Spiller, and backing them up and creating turnovers. Oh and field goals won the game, all four of them by Henery. Game Review: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recap?gid=200901010001&prov=ap
  13. i was happy with the offensive performance tonight. not trying to break a big play every time but rather taking what the defense was giving us. Green did a good job of just trying to keep the drive going rather than going for the big play, we had a few tricks we tried to pull and a few big shots too though. I'd like to see this offense in arlington against whichever oklahoma team we play. It was a good Nebraska offense. Run and short and medium passes while letting the big boys upfront do their job. I'm sure guys like Ricky Henry would rather not have to pass block all night. This is the offense I've been waiting to see all season. Next up on my list to fix on offense, where is the good old normal option play?
  14. Taylor Martinez has been heard saying multiple times that he hates Nebraska. He was texting his dad in the locker room when he was getting taped up after his injury Multiple insiders say his job as qb after this year is in question with Brion Carnes looking good in practice He is not going to transfer during the season His overly cocky attitude might be an issue when it comes to getting along with others I can easily see him as thinking no one can tell him what to do
