What an abortion this game is turning into. I’m ready to trade OCs with UA. They are throwing because they can’t run the ball and we can’t cover a bed with a blanket. We’re throwing it 80% of the time with an 11 point lead and nearly 200 yards on the ground. Yet for some reason our OCs fell in love with pass, pass, pass.

Littrell may have the shortest honeymoon of any OC in OU history .. we're ready to fire him before his first game is over.

It sounds like we only had 2 healthy RB going into this game.

Hope we don’t need those two timeouts we’ve already used this half.

Yeah ... It's different when your first start is against #14 vs an FBS school.

Yep. Anyone who thought the offense would come out this game firing on all cylinders was delusional.

Freshman QB starting his first game
Patchwork OL
Lack of depth at RB
Best WR still hurt
New OC

The fact that we are in this at all has been impressive to me. Arizona is no pushover, especially on defense.

I could live with not firing on all cylinders. But 6 turnovers is just terrible.

We gave this game away.

He has always made me nervous when he is carrying the ball. This game he really cost us.

Oh well, on to next season.

Nonsense. New QB, basically an impromptu OL, bad individual mistakes, penalties.

I would rather trade our DB's for theirs.

If you had told me before the season started that we would finish 10-3 I would have been thrilled to hear it. This team is still being rebuilt. We have a solid foundation, just need to get some missing pieces. We'll be fine.
