Most of the possessions have been ugly. Rattler has looked awful and got benched. Their D is a wreck and mistakes by Texas have kept them in it. I’m pretty sure our D is better than both of these two and our OL may actually be better. OU has to take a timeout on the 1st play out of half ON DEFENSE. We’re talking the ineptitude of both offenses is approaching Monty level play calling and time wasting right now
There is so much parity in college football (Sunbelt record vs Big 12). Only a few elite teams this year. Most games are going to be decided by matchups, game plans, execution and injuries/virus.
I wouldn’t worry about losing Gillespie to a DC job, especially in the Big 12. I would worry about him being lost to a HC position in the CUSA or Sunbelt if the money is good enough.
Don’t be surprised if it takes a year or longer to find a President and an AD and another six months to get a coach in place. I could plausibly see Montgomery in this job for two more seasons. Gillespie will be gone before thar.
