Look at the video man, there was a second left on the field clock. TV clock isn't official, everyone should know that this has happened many times in college and pro

u/BreezyMcWeasel Oklahoma Sooners Sep 12 '26
Not sure why you're being down voted. I had my pitchfork in hand and torch lit after the W. Michigan game. Then I watched several angles of film from inside the stadium and I realized, THE BROADCAST TIME WAS DEAD WRONG.
I put my pitchfork down and extinguished my torch. There was actually one second left.

u/RealEmperorofMankind Michigan Wolverines • Marching Band Sep 12 '26
I was willing to chalk it down to a silly ref error but then checked it.
Either way, no doubt now.

u/Birdlaw_Professor Michigan Wolverines • New Mexico Lobos Sep 12 '26
People must just wilfully be refusing to watch any of the footage. Even the MAC dropped it once they were shown the proof.
They do need to have one official clock and sync everything off of that. It's 2026 we have the capability. We probably need fractional seconds too, every bit matters

A black hole would have had to have opened at midfield during that final play for the NBC video sync to be correct.

u/NeverDieKris Ohio State Buckeyes Sep 12 '26
Honestly, maybe. Oklahoma has serious issues with their offense. No running game, bad QB, bad OC. Their defense should keep them in most games but it’s not going to be enough. They might lose 4-5 games this year looking ahead at their schedule.

u/VegetableTour6790 Oklahoma State Cowboys Sep 12 '26
Honest question, why? You guys chased him out of norman the first time and trashed him on the way out. Now, he's been given the longest leash that any OU coach has had, with the longest period between championships you've ever had. You just gave him an absurd extension.
Why?

u/senorcheeser Sep 12 '26
Can’t blame BV for how bad our offense is. Mateer and the WRs can’t get it together mentally. Our blocking sucked too so it’s a major offense issue right now. Refs also threw flags on tick tack bs to shift momentum several times against OU.

Not the point. They won't drop OU out and Michigan will be 15-20 in the next poll. If the reference was to the last and current poll it would say "deserved"....as if the action of ranking them had already occurred.

Mateer has constantly been absent in the “bigger” games. I really wasn’t surprised we shit the bed when all eyes were on us. I won’t be surprised if we go TDless vs Texas and UGA.
Our baseball team must’ve siphoned all the remaining SoOnER mAGiC.

Objectively they are 2-0 and should be 2-0. Anybody with the ability to time from 0 to 9s can piece this together. Then again, OSU does have like a 70% acceptance rate, so I wouldn't expect much.

u/Intelligent_Dress347 Alabama Crimson Tide • Georgia Bulldogs Sep 12 '26
A lot of times people put too much blame on the players, but in this instance - I don’t think it’s the coaches.
Mateer is the worst combo IMO. Because he has the mindset of a gunslinger when he shouldn’t at all.

yeah two throws to Beer's hit him right in the hands, albeit one was a little high (didn't even have to jump for it tho) and the other was into double coverage.
but legit both throws hit him in the hands. gotta come down with at least one of those.
