Seems like the OU center should get called for false start the way he jerks his head before the snap. You can bet they have a count where he does it 2 or 3 times.

Wasn't Artavis Scott a Michigan target recruit a few years ago?

I think we supposedly led for a bit OR we thought we had a decent chance before he picked Clemson fairly early in the process. I think.....still, yes, we recruited him.

Yeah he was in the trio along with Mason Cole and George Campbell. Wonder what happened to Campbell?

I mean did they not play TCU and Boykin?

Oklahoma is clearly missing a "Madden generation" coach. Should've ran two run plays on last series. No reason to give Clemson this possession and put more pressure on your defense.

Also how are you not spying Watson on every damn down.

...to get that fucking Oklahoma fight song out of your head! They almost NEVER stop playing it. Been that way forever, including at the '76 Orange Bowl against us (we lost 14-6), which I attended. It got so annoying, I recall holding my hands over my ears for much of the second half. Only other song like that for me is "It's A Small World After All".

I like how in a 4 pt or 7 pt game in the first quarter there are ~39 posts claiming the game will be a blowout or one team "is in trouble."

Do these people ever watch football?

So then you're saying they should still understand that a 7 pt lead in the 1st means squat?

Why do they post this drivel?

I'm sorry. You must have wanted to swallow a bullet by the end of those games.

I'm assuming it was family. No logical reason to watch ANOTHER game with them knowing how they were the first game.

Just got online. But this is one of the most entertaining games I've seen all year. Fast pace. Good plays on both sides of the ball by both teams. Mistakes by both teams - though I'd argue some of it forced by the quality of the opponent.

What's the consensus here?

it's tentative. Clemson looks like they're gashing them when there's lots of field to cover and that's got Oklahoma on their heels. They've been incredible in the red zone though.
