Texas giving Bama all they can handle. Ewers looks to be the real deal. Not sure what his injury status is or if he’s coming back. Looked like a clean hit ( late but not malicious).
you cant drive the QB into the ground which is why there was a penalty

I'll post what I posted on an OU board today.


Quote
Texas looked like the better-coached team out there today. Alabama was penalized 100 yards, and it could have/should have been a lot more. They got away with a DPI in the end zone and a late face-mask violation, neither of which was called. They hit late consistently.

Maybe Bama looks better when SEC officials are in charge and "let 'em play."


But maybe I was wrong about the coaching. Maybe the Bama defense is coached to hit late and dirty because they can get away with it in the SEC.

News is reporting Ewers has a clavicle sprain with further evaluation needed

Its my opinion that if no bones were broken he could only be out 2 or 3 weeks

obviously if there is a break it might be the season

sometimes the PI was so obvious I was stunned no flag was thrown

I was very happy with our defense

what a difference a year makes

Yup.  That's one way of putting it.

Ewers looked elite. He dropped one into the receivers hands in the end zone he just couldn’t hang on to it.

The outcome of this game was... problematic.  I've never witnessed anything like it.

I can't really say anything else without being accused of being a poor sport so I guess I'll leave it at that.

I think any Horn who watched this game feels the same way

Excessive PI

excessing penalties of which maybe only half were called by the refs

You got to give our defense credit they played their hearts out

only a few blown plays like their long TD

I did like Sabin chewing out his players at game end for doing the upside down hookem sign

CBS cites various sources estimating that Ewers will be out "at least" 2-3 weeks or is expected to miss 4-6 weeks. Might or might not be available for the RRS.

This reminds me of 2009, when Sam Bradford injured his shoulder in Week 1 at JerryWorld vs. BYU. He came back for the RRS but was re-injured in that game and missed the rest of the season/rest of his career at OU. And 2009 turned out to be a miserable year for the Sooners.

Little offense and no reliable place-kicker led to the following losses: 14-13 to BYU, 21-20 to Miami, 16-13 to Texas, 10-3 to Nebraska, and an embarrassing 41-13 loss to Texas Tech.

Horns might remember that Colt McCoy made an amazing tackle to prevent a pick-six that might have been the difference in the game.

I do remember that tackle he threw himself at the runners knees and down he went

I still have not seen the results of the MRI but its gotta be good news 

I think he will play some vs West Vir and be full speed for the RRS at least thats my hope

In the mean time we need a new backup QB I hope we have one

Card looked good considering that his right ankle was apparently injured.
