    been thinking about it and penix in the sugar bowl was literally the best i’ve ever seen a qb throw the ball

    Even Texas fans were blown away, saying after the game that they couldn't believe their eyes

    His pocket awareness was pretty special

    I’m still mad.

    On the bright side DeBoer won’t do that again.
    It wasn’t a one time thing. It’s been on display a lot this season.
    Through the entire 14-0?
    Yes.

    Was it that much different than running the clock out vs oregon? Everyone was jacking off to dj getting the first down in that game. They were giving the ball back without a first down and things got cataclysmic real fast.
    To me, it was different because DJ was killing Oregon all game. He got shut down by Texas. I had zero confidence we could run for a first down in that situation.
    The Sugar Bowl clock fuck up was on the previous possession. Our penultimate possession. We would have ended the game taking a knee but for that.

    We also saw clock management malpractice in the Apple Cup and the Arizona game.

    It hadn’t burned him until now. That is the difference. You keep banging the skanks raw dwag until you pee razors.

    Then you adjust unless you like peeing razors.
    We were tied instead of ahead at halftime of the Apple Cup because of it, for one example. We survived. Barely.

    Mike Leach clock management behavior. Russian Roulette.

    Clock management vs going for the kill shot. I believe there’s a way to do both but it feel like Apple Cup, Arizona game, 1st Oregon and the Sigar Bowl all had possessions were UW could’ve run some clock, pick up some yards and then get into possession for the kill shot.

    DeBoer and Grubb want what they want though.

    It was glorious.

    The missed TD to Culp seemed so perfect a through I had to believe Culp messed up his step. Penix is incredible.

    Think we have to accept the good with the bad a bit with these guys. They like to go for the jugular even when it ain't exactly prudent to do so. High risk/high reward big swinging donkey dick stuff. Certainly helps keep Ds on their heels and that effect is hard to quantify. It will bite us someday but I can't argue with the results thus far. Despite all that shit, it mostly was the DJ injury timeout and the punt catch interference that gave those cows a chance. Hard to blame coaches there (except taking knees wouldn't get a player hurt but I digress).

    The jugular in the Sugar Bowl was making Texas choose whether to use its second timeout with 2:40 remaining or let the field goal be kicked with 2 minutes left. There was no benefit to passing there. Two score advantage whether we get a TD or a field goal. What COULD be accomplished was to bleed clock or force the second timeout.

    Coaching malpractice.
