If they can teach Sam to step up in the pocket to avoid pressure instead of running straight to the sideline and throwing the ball out of bounds he could eventually be a stud.  I've been very happy with him so far, but I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say at least 10 times a game he runs straight right or left to avoid pressure, eliminating all options except for forced throws to the one well-covered receiver on which ever side of the field he ends up on.  Without this flaw, I think they win both this game and the USC game.  That being said, I'm still more excited about him than I've been about a UT quarterback in several years.

Kris Boyd is TERRIBLE at cornerback. He gave up Three touchdowns just by himself by getting toasted and missing tackle after tackle. It was so easy to predict OU's offense when they needed a 3rd or 4th down first down- Find #2 and throw it there.

I have yet to be impressed with him since he’s been there.  Hill has come around and Elliott is a future NFL’er.  But Boyd is a guy who seems to have the tools but has never adapted to the next level.

Ehlinger was knocked out cold and Herman put him back in the game a few plays later?

 

“My head hit the ground pretty hard,” Ehlinger said. “And they were just taking precaution. I told them immediately I could go back in. I felt fine.”

Herman said he thought about sticking with Buechele, but Ehlinger had been medically cleared. Ehlinger said team physician James Bray asked him to count backward by sevens starting at 100.

“I think when guy’s played three and a half quarters and is in the rhythm that he’s in, if he’s cleared, you’re going to put him back in the ballgame,” Herman said.

That drive ended with a turnover on downs. UT got the ball one final time with 49 seconds remaining on its own 4-yard line. Ehlinger couldn’t assemble a 96-yard touchdown drive, and the Sooners captured a 29-24 win.

He was out cold for 20+ seconds!  He threw the ball away on a must make 4th down that basically ended the game. I’m not sure he knew where he was, but you can keep defending Herman if it makes you feel better

I am not defending anyone.  The medical staff put him through concussion protocol and cleared him to go back in.  I’m pretty sure that, unlike you, Herman doesn’t have a medical degree or license.  Oh wait, neither do you.  But the source you posted is pretty hilarious and telling.  Glad you Gomers have moved on lmao

You can’t watch that video and tell me he wasn’t knocked out.  He obviously didn’t know where he was when he threw it out of bounds on 4th down.

I don’t know anything other than Texas has a medical staff who took over after the play.  He might well have been concussed, I certainly assumed so when he was sitting there.  Coaches have to rely on folks with medical training to report to them on injuries and clearance, whether it’s head, knee, shoulder, etc.  For a player to be allowed to play in this instance, he has to pass concussion protocol.  

I did enjoy the attention “TAMU Highlights” gave to this issue.  I was especially amused by the gomer who tagged every reporter, NCAA exec, and anyone else he thought would wag their finger.  As a Texas guy, I found it hilarious. If I were an aggy, I would have been saddened/embarrassed for him.  I doubt many did, as it was about as aggy as one can get, and is generally celebrated in gomerland.

    • Whatever happened to educating people so that they don’t go off the deep end pursuing an incident that shouldn’t be political in the first place? Seems everyone is looking for their “trigger”moment. The dumbing down of America has taken its toll. Anyone who would hold this against her is doing so out of spite and for political gain. Said people need to be ignored.
    • You won’t get an argument from me that this won’t hurt her nationally but I don’t think this will hurt her in SD or even an appointment in a Republican administration.  I’m sure she saw backlash from some, apparently not from folks like you and me, which is significant, but like I said, I appreciate the honesty.
    • Appreciate the confidence.  Why don’t we see how this works out for her.  Going great so far.  She MIGHT be able to get re-elected in South Dakota next election, but if a good candidate runs against her in the Republican primaries she may be in trouble.  I don’t think there’s a chance in hades she gets the VP nomination, and if for some reason Trump is dumb enough to give it to her, his chances of winning are probably over.  On a positive note, maybe DeSantis gets it now?  If they win and do a decent job then we’d have a VP ready to run for president in four years with a good shot of winning.  
    • I honestly don’t have an issue with it.  I grew up around livestock.  We had a neighbor lose nearly 30 animals in a 3-week period before they caught the dogs doing it. Those dogs needed to die.  I was there when my uncle killed a dog that was eating his chickens… didn’t bother me. If one of my dogs ever bites one of my kids it’ll be dead.  Immediately.  But some things are better left unsaid, and probably 90% of the country loves dogs, with only a small fraction of them being able to relate to why she did what she did.  
    • If only she was as politically savvy as you. 🙂
