I didn't catch any of that game but it doesn't surprise me.

As expected, KSU benefitted from more penalties than Texas, and at 10 penalties for 67 yards, increased their gap in the chart I listed above.

I only saw a replay highlight of an obvious pass interference not called in the endzone

sooner wr was tackled before the ball arrived

Yup there was a lot of that being allowed by B12 refs yesterday-- but only if the player on offense was wearing a Texas or OU jersey.

Thats the play that really stood out

amazing no call

but the Horns found a way to overcome it

sure glad the cats coach was an idiot for his overtime call of going for it on 4th down
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

If it had worked everyone would have called him a gutsy genius.

I'm glad it didn't, of course.

I knew they couldnt pull it off and all I felt was relief

The Horns rank 9th in the country against 3rd down conversions

The cats chose to play into our strength which was not a wise call

thank you very much coach

As far a Ewers is concerned he threw some last week and he might return as early as next week against TCU

while thats probably too optimistic Im hoping to see him a week after the TCU game

The Rig12 is going to do everything it can to use its shitty refs to steal a game from us.  An away game at TCU or at ISU look like prime opportunities.  We're gonna have to play much cleaner football to make sure they don't succeed in their cheating endeavors.

The refs suck and probably are biased against UT.

The SEC was out to prove they can top anyone again this weekend.  Caught 3 SEC games and the reffing was atrocious in all of them.  

Big 12:  We have worse refs than you can possibly dream of.

SEC:  Hold my beer.

I wasn't convinced the Texas offense was going to do anything other than what they did in OT. The FGs were a reasonable given, but in order to win, they were going to have to grab a turnover. Otherwise, it was inevitable that KSU was going to match their FG with a TD at some point.

Deciding to match the KSU offense against the Texas defense for one play needing 4 yards was not a smart bet. Kick the FG, reset, and make Texas play the game correctly. The QB run was not a threat against a disciplined defense, and asking WR to get clear in 14 yards of space before the rush hits is a small percentage of success.
This isn't last season where anyone who needed to win against Texas at the end could count on their 2 yard play working.

All the criticism for the refs and is anybody going to bring up another problem Texas is having? Blowing big recent leads to Houston and Kansas State? 

Going back to Washington Sark has trouble applying the killer blow. It's a sign of an even bigger weakness Sark has - getting outcoached, especially when it comes to halftime adjustments.

IMO, though Sark's in-game coaching has improved, having the constant talent advantage while coaching USC, Washington, USC again, and Alabama lulled him into out-talenting the competition rather than strategizing matchups and exploiting weaknesses, which Sark teams are often a step behind on.
