I love these by-the-numbers pieces. As usual, this one was worth reading until the very end.

4:46 in Austin, and OU still sucks.

45 points
1 — Number of times a Texas team has scored 45 or more points in the RRS (45 points, 2005).

I’ll bet you love putting alot of hard work into these things and having people point out the incorrect stuff.

Yeah, that should read – number of other times…

Thanks, though.

I love this:

"3 — Number of screen passes to Manuel Johnson when both he and OG Duke Robinson were beyond the line of scrimmage.

0 — Number of ineligible receiver penalties called on OU."

You should look at the tape and add the number of times TX defensive linemen were blatantly held and the number of times it was called.

Simple

Just take the OU plays from scrimmage (67) and subtract the number of times holding was called (1).

No excuses...

288 — Oklahoma offensive yards (4 touchdowns) on its first 37 plays from scrimmage.

147 — Oklahoma offensive yards (1 touchdown) on its final 30 plays from scrimmage.

That’s because Reynolds got hurt right??

Ooops, that was the reason for the defensive lapse. On offense it must have been a tortoise vs. the hare kind of thing??

Hook Em!
