Now that the national championship and big 12 championship odds are hovering around zero, I have to wonder.....
Perhaps I bought too much into the optimism after a strong finish last year and a good looking start this year.
The team has great individual talent, but seems to lack the mental makeup to put together consistent efforts.
Offensive coaching will not mature or develop beyond what we see now. Its erratic. Good week, bad week. Good half, bad half. I just don't get it.
Announcers can still change the game with a good jinx.
I don't want to hear there is no one besides Sheppard who can catch the ball. It looked to me that if thrown to, the other guys can catch just fine. That argument is dead.
I don't know where the defense went. If you are giving up big plays without punishing anyone, why not punish them and risk giving up the big play? Something has changed to where they rarely get after it anymore. Baylor smacked an untouchable boyken around. Texas looked like they could move the ball. I though the D would be a consistent part of the team and would give the O time to develop...but i was wrong. Same can be said of the special teams (mental mistakes i suppose)
When knight was out, we ran it down their throats! WTF!
Time to develop talent where you can and add some depth since the annual big 12 championship goal looks to be DOA.
This game just got away from us...and thats enough from this frustrated fan. I want to see them do well and am interested in how they conduct themselves for the remainder of the season.
