You can say that again, the only thing better would be for NC State to come out on top..

Hey did any of the OU thugs get arrested for blowing through a stop sign, driving with a suspended license and open container(a few months after being acquitted of a felony charge) this week, like happened last week? I didn't get to read this week's Oklahoma probation report....

A lot of that so far this season, tough to pick a clear favorite to foil on OU vs. Miami championship unless K-State or W. Virginia gets em down the road

Been meaning to ask: Is Saint Mack Brown keeping his thugs safe from harm?
Don't believe we had any stop sign runners this week.

27-7. The annual Red River Choke is on, the 4th in a row under Mack Brown. Primarily the fault of Carl Reese's horrible defense(maybe he's teaching them psychic tackling and that intent is enough, rather than plain 'ole traditional tackling). Yeah, offensive turnovers are a problem, but how many defensive stops have forced an OU punt? Zero.
To: Diddle E. Squat
37-13 at the half, not a single defensive stop. 4 years in a row losing to the Texas Traitors who fled to OU to play. Choked in every big game that would have led to a national championship game appearance(this game will be at least the the 4th time that has happened on Mack's watch, we are already down to 8 undefeateds, a win today would have put UT in a great position to get to the Sugar Bowl.)
Dumb penalties, turnovers, refusal to fire a clearly inept defensive coordinator(remember how everyone but Mack and Carl expected Texas Tech to run all over them last year)
Fire Carl, fire Mack. Plenty of time to search for a replacement.
To: Diddle E. Squat
44-13, not a single OU punt.
To: Diddle E. Squat
I can't take this year after year, something has got to change. They have all the talent in the world, and still can't get it done? Mack is a nice guy and all that, but if he can't win the big ones, he needs to go, NOW!
To: Diddle E. Squat
UT- a 51/2 underdog to OU. Get's beat by 52 !! Ubelievable...Embarassing...etc. How was that possible with all those blue chip recruits? Ask Mack? He doesn't have a clue!!!
To: padfoot_lover
I can't remember... who was the doofus that was the UT coach before mack brown? The one that looked (and acted) like Wesley Clark?

You're referring to John Make-u-sick (Mackovic), the recently fired coach of Arizona. That was a train-wreck waiting to happen.
Make-u-sick could beat OU, Nebraska and A&M but then he'd lose to Rice or Baylor. He was noted here for three things:
1) the sweep run to the short side of the field where the running back usually stepped out of bounds after a minimal gain or loss. Ran that loser of a play at least ten times a game.
2) the "I'm such a genius" cutesy play call. Why bother powering it in on 3rd and Goal from the one yard line when you could run some cutesy tackle eligible pass that was guaranteed to make one team or the other look ridiculous? He was the "anti-smashmouth".
3) the "no-visible-means-of-defense" defense. Anyone who wants to criticize the tackling skills of Texas now should go back and watch the Longhorns of seven or eight years ago. They couldn't tackle to save their lives. They never wrapped up. They tried to either push down their opponents or fall on them. Horrible, horrible defense.
I'm not ready yet to give up on Coach February but he does need better coordinators and maybe get that fat goo of a "strength coach" a different job. At least Brown gets great players (ask the NFL). Now he just needs to find somebody who can coach them.

Thanks, believe it or not I was following them the whole time. The other day I realized I had blocked out his name from my conciousness. I'm watching 'Ashley Wilkes' Clark on TV right now and he really does remind me of Mackovic. I'll never forget that trick play against Nebraska in the first Big 12 Championship game.
I thought Mack Brown would be better, I suppose because he has a southern accent. I don't see how a Texas coach can get whipped by Oklahoma for four years in a row and keep his job. The remark up the thread about Texas wouldn't hire a Republican is frightening. Because having gone there, I could believe it.
