Official Game Thread: South Alabama vs. Oklahoma State

[stonewallpoke]

Road test completed. The Orange Hydra QB system marches on.

With all the guessing at QB and the fact that USA was a success last season, there’s a sneaking feeling that OSU fans might want to watch out for this bunch of Jags. And true enough, they were good last year.

This defense is finding ways to change games.

This offense is finding the scores they need to win.

This team is 2-0. And 3-0 is on deck. Believe in these Cowboys.

Go Pokes! Beat the Jaguars!

Fun fact: if you’re worried about the three QB thing, today they’re up against a defense that ranks 122 in passing yards allowed and 131 in passing efficiency defense.

Catch the ball!

 

[Okstatekerr]

Hope Stribling is okay

 

[74072 Poke]

Stribbling hurt because Bray can't catch.

 

[Edmondcowboy]

That drive is the prime example of why you can’t evaluate qbs on numbers alone. Should have been 4-4 75 yards and a td.

 

[Okstatekerr]

Death by 1000 cuts right now

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Interesting move by Nardo to have 4 man box

Interesting move by Nardo to have 4 man box

And it killed us there.

Our defense acts like the '21 defense also. They start out like they're in a fog and sharpen up as the game goes on.

 

[Okstatekerr]

Jesus TE wide open on 3rd and long

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Finally walks a LB up to slow the run game. Another 3rd down conversion. No one near the TE

 

[FWPoke]

Our guys did see the South on the opponent’s name, right?

That should have been a touchdown but we lucked out

 

[UpGrayedd Double Dose]

At least they can't catch either...

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Offense will be fine. Everything is there in the passing game. Maybe mix in a run or two.

I wish the announcer would quit saying Oak State.
