“Because that’s not who we are,” Kent State head coach Kenni Burns said postgame. “That’s now who we are as a football team. That’s not who we are as a culture. There are a lot of teams that lost today in lump sums; they’re not getting running clocks. A football game is a football game. I talked to our captains about it, and they said absolutely not. I said absolutely not. It’s just not who we are at all as a football program. No way.”

Tennessee called off the dogs as much as they ever have under Josh Heupel in the second half. The Vols went straight to third string quarterback Jake Merklinger to open the half and also played quarterbacks Navy Shuler and Ryan Damron.


I can respect that

Did you use psychology on that LSU fan? OU is going to lose in a blowout.

I hope and believe if UT starts strong it will never be close. I fear what could happen if the Vols get behind early.

Not against this team.

That's why the opposing team's strategy will be:
Getting the ball first on offense

I hope so. I hope Okie does get the ball 1st. The D will be fired up for them. I guess my BVS is still holding out because I need to see them win in a hostile night game against a good team. And Okie is good. Their QB was higher rated than Nico, they are loaded with talent everywhere and they get some key guys back.

Right now their Oline is making them look significantly worse than they are and if they get guys back and in game form they can make a game of it. If their Oline is not ready it will be a bloodbath.

Their QB throws like that McCall kid.

So far, Nico and Arch are outperforming him.
