I've watched a few 'horn games.  Honestly I wasn't all that impressed with Bijan, although he played good.  I'd like to see what he does in the bowl game.  Is he back next year? 

He had 57 yards vs Bama on 21 carries.  Not great.

Ewers was 12 of 16 for 194 yards no interceptions

He had a pretty good game with just one huge error with the fumble

we went to the run cause thats what the defense allowed not to save Ewers

Ewers had a solid day passing but that funble-6 scoop and score was devastating and nearly cost us the game.  The coaches went solely to the run after that, and protecting the team from any further Ewers screwups was absolutely part of it.  It was the right call, relying on a freshman QB  in that situation rather than your upperclassmen-dominated running back rotation, would have been silly.  If they'd made the same move against TCU and Oklahoma State those might have been two more wins.

I hope Ewers improves dramatically between now and next year.  Otherwise we're in massive trouble at QB because I expect Card to transfer, and Arch Manning will be a true freshman.

here again Alabama put 8 in the box most of the time which is why we moved the ball in the air

What utee said.  And also, Ewers' numbers hide a little bit the near-disaster of some of his plays.  What happened, happened, so I understand disregarding hypotheticals.  Still, he had a couple moments that you don't want to see again.  

That said, he had plenty of flashes of brilliance this year.  I'd expect the typical second-year jump for him in which case he should be very good.

This happened with 13 min left is the game

we had the lead and we were able to run on them

I think we would have stuck with the run no matter who was at QB

Yes Ewers will get better

Have you notified Sark that you have decided to keep him for one more year?

No because I haven't decided to keep Sark for one more year.  He better blow out the bowl game opponent.

And yes it happened with 13 minutes left in the game.  We didn't have the lead, we were down 27-24.  From that point on, this is what happened:

22 plays
22 rushes
133 yards
14 points
TOP 10:43

ok I stand corrected but we took the lead on the next series and again we were gashing them with the run so why put the ball in the air

incidentally our defense played very well during this period and that was also a big reason for our victory

I wonder if all our players will show up for the bowl game

Did they play 8 defenders in the box on the last two drives?

speaking of needed improvement besides our QB is our off line

I expect to have a much better OL next year

Gracias.

I think I can probably tweak a good recipe as far as flavor, what I don't know anything about is what affects consistency.  I like thick eggnog, most of the store-bought stuff is too runny for me.

You get the thick but still fluffyness, from whipping the egg whites to soft peaks separately, and then combining with the other ingredients.  Some recipes omit the whites.  I consider those to be lesser recipes.

I've noticed this message board occasionally does that.  Strange.
