We might not have played our best and the game may have looked ugly, but the final score (which is the only thing that people will remember) wasn’t to ugly.
kicking it away instead of an on side kick would have helped some. Holgersen saw a ray of hope with 2 minutes left and only down by 11. He rolled the dice which was a good call but we were offside giving them excellent field position.
Yes, I think about the Pitt multiple onside kick recoveries every time I see ANY team attempting an onside kick and I always have hope. Although, correct me if I’m wrong, I don’t think the Coogs have successfully recovered an onside kick since that game. Not that I can remember.
Should have taken the field goal after Parrish’s strip. I get why he didn’t but there were still > 6 minutes left and given our inability to stop OU’s offense, I would have taken the sure 3. It’s not hindsight either cause I was saying from my living room.
Back in the old days, points were never passed up unless there was so little time left you had to go on 4th down to have a chance.
probably would have made the game closer but the aggressive approach was stick em with another TD. He went for another one earlier on 4th and made it. I think he is that kind of coach as seen from his 2 pointer last year to beat Texas when an easy tie was available.
