Desire means more in the bowls and OU didn’t want it nearly enough. Congratulations to Navy

Navy had the disire.

OU, Hell they had 22 opt outs and only 56 on scholarship and the receivers were Freshman that half the time couldn’t catch a pass when wide open..

Wasn’t about desire in this one..

And why most bowl games are meaningless

This is why I don't care about bowl games anymore. I used to love them but they are silly exhibition games now.

Yeah but we better win our silly exhibition game tomorrow.

 

[Hford]

I don't even care about that one due to the portal and opt outs. I'll still watch bc it's the Huskers but the result doesn't mean anything to me.

Records count, exhibition games don’t count on your season record.

Navy surely wanted it more. OU had that many who had enough tape for the next year or simply didn’t want to be there to start. Desire isn’t just game day, the team didn’t care during the season and it spread into the bowl game. Should have went with my head on the above prediction of this game.

This was entertaining. I think both teams missed multiple field goals and OU had a chance to win it with a 2 pt conversion with a few seconds left. I don’t dislike Venables but seeing OU lose like that gave me weird pleasure

 

[scarletred]

So who ever wins their bowl games cares more than the other.Bull$hit.

I can see if one team blows off someone’s doors were I’d agree..

It’s always been about which team’s fan base prayed more. Jesus keeps receipts

Hopefully you are doing your part to make sure Jesus is a Husker fan tomorrow? 🙏

 

[comaxds]

bets:

OU -2.5 vs Navy
Vandy +3 vs GTech
TTech -2 vs Arkansas
aTm -4 vs USC

great slate, love bowl season

Most the games to date suck. Watching execution that looks like third string most of the time.

 

[comaxds]

And yet they beat Bama 24-3 🤪

This is not the team that beat Alabama. They only had 50 some scholarship players on the sidelines today and all their skill guys including QB transferred. They have more portal turnover than most teams...and it show in their play.

Yeah, but they’re an SEC team. They should be better than Navy despite that.

I think the key to not having many options outs is to not make a bowl game in 8 years. 💩 Kidding but not.

 

[thall_]

If that’s their expectations then yeah, they’re probably going to force him out

Saban said it succinctly before one of their games, OU is just not built to win big games consistently in the SEC.

They’re going to have to strike gold on their next hire or they’re gonna be another Arkansas/Miss. St.

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Navy should have been in the playoff. Did I do that right, sec fan boys?

 

[WHCSC]

This GT Vandy game is getting pretty good

Yea, not one of them want to win this game do they.

 

[schuele]

Lightning delay in the Vanderbilt-Tech game. Jackets waved the white flag about a half hour ago, so they were ready.

Sucks having to wait it out while getting your tail kicked so bad.

That 3rd quarter was a fun one. Very chippy! Even the GT coach got a 15 yarder!

 

[Zeke2005]

No it still should have been Ole Miss, SCAR and Alabama all in

 

[headcard]

TTech goes for it on 4th down from the 4 yard line, after an timeout, and and throws a fade? OK.

 

[headcard]

Dam, Tech is making Arkansas look like the greatest show on turf. 260 yards and 21 points in the first quarter.

Serves them right for deciding to become Texas' bitch in 1996

 

[HuskerDrew]

I like A&M to handle USC and cover

Does a&m have many sitting out?

 

[headcard]

Now Texas Tech is running wild in the 2Q. Nice call @scarletred with the overs.

 

[HuskerO]

Navy +3 vs Oklahoma
TTech/Arkansas UNDER 52 (both teams missing so many offensive players).
EDIT: After 1.5 quarters they're already at 33, lol.
Vanderbilt +3 vs Georgia Tech
Syracuse -18 vs Washington St (WSU missing sooo many guys).

Nebraska -4 vs Boston College

I was in the wrong thread...

 

[HuskerDrew]

A few hit the portal and the big time Edge is opting out for the draft, but relatively speaking.. no
USC lost significantly more, IMO

USC lost WRs and defenders. TAMU should cruise

Looks like they got tired.

Thanks for the detail. Makes sense.

The Big 12 teams are giving up some huge numbers to some bad offenses so far. I’m thinking Colorado and BYU lucked out by getting to play each other.
