GDT: Tigers @ Sooners -- 11 -- ABC

[11WSChamps]

Boomer Sooner to the playoffs.

Sickening.

[Offsides]

Penn State, Auburn, Florida, or LSU would be nuts to hire Drink. He would be fired within 3 years.

6 points. That's Pribula's average for his last 2 starts. 3 in a little over a half against Vandy.

He coaches not to lose. Not an aggressive bone in his body. Result: boring football that cannot win big games.

Playing to protect a 3pt lead midway through 1rst half!

Play calling sucks

Pribula is a runner with a weak arm and a bad ankle. What do you expect? The team that can get to 17 points will probably win today. The defense may outscore the offense today.

OU can’t run the ball and Mizzou can’t pass.

Sadly, the “wrong” team got to 17.

[rezero]

MU is about to be 0-4 this season v ranked teams. That is a coaching failure.

Not beating a team who finished above 0.500 the last 2 years is a failure. Hopefully this motivates Drink to aMove on from Moore and get an established OC.

[cardinalsfever44]

Big game Drink fails again. Another blah Mizzou football season. Wash, rinse, repeat.

[acco40]

Seems to me a lot of young ones don’t recall 25 straight losses to Nebraska, 13 consecutive losing seasons (1984 -1996), etc.

[abnerdoubled]

Can't blame Pribula or Moore for that one.

Former AL QB in booth said throw needed to be towards pylon - made for a much harder catch on Coleman.

agree, he needs to throw to the open spot and let the receiver run to it. He is aiming at where the receiver is at.

If you watch Indiana's QB, that is exactly what he does. He throws to the open spot and reveivers run to catch up

Excellent post kiefer, I argued that for yrs on cook, same with Beau but I see some possibilities with Z

Drink is a great recruiter and has consistently had good defensive teams and a good running game. But penalties, clock management, bi-week preparation, big game execution, in-game adjustments, pass offense, and special teams especially, have been mediocre if not sub-par, and this is true over the course of his entire tenure but for a great season albeit did not even get to a conference championship game despite a roster of tons of NFL players. QB development has been atrocious outside of Cook and he’s had years to develop others. Unlike Pinkel, who took us to four conference championship games, we’ve had none with Drink. Is this his ceiling? IMHO Drink is too much a meddler, needs to understand his limits, and delegate coaching to people who do it better. Be the figurehead, not the nuts and bolts guy. Moore is not doing great but please don’t pretend the offense doesn’t have Drink’s DNA all over it.

It would be nice if Drink brought in an innovative OC and got out of the way.
