Agree. We'll be ready.

I suspect that message is being taken to heart by the defense this week. They will be ready.

I only got to see parts of the game. But I saw a vastly improved WR corps and we were playing a competent opponent. After that TD run to start the 3rd qtr, the defense got the memo and played better.

The old saying is the most improvement comes between games 1 and 2. I want to see that.

Overall, from what I saw, was a typical opener. Some bright spots along with plenty to gripe about and plenty of room for improvement.

Do what 18handicap is doing.

DId we even run any play action at all?

Finally, game week has arrived. I'm ready.

So hiring a guy who was national assistant coach of the year in 2018 is a bad thing? It appears that he has a track record of getting the most out of what he has at his disposal. And here, he's going to have a lot to work with.

I suspect the OU coach will be contacted
Heefner at DBU is another I would call
Wake Forest and UNC coaches as well

I think we see Prager Saturday. He started game 1 vs Oregon and I can see Schloss doing the same thing again.

You left out the 1988 team that went 52-15. Like 1989 that team could hit and also needed a couple of more arms. The 1990 team that went 43-17 had great pitching but couldn't hit. That team didn't make the SWC tournament, having finished 5th, and a good team was left at home.

It's hard to compare teams that are 35 years apart, but I think across the board it is more talented than the '89 team. The biggest difference is the pitching.
