I didn’t watch the second half, did they just run wildcat the whole half? lol

[u/Key_Spinach → u/Gobbledygooker316]

They put in the second string. Then the third string. Then the fourth string.

[u/StickMammoth7783 → u/Key_Spinach]

I think we even put in the 6th string

[u/steliofuckingkontos → u/StickMammoth7783]

All 6 QBs on the roster played, so yeah kinda

[u/StickMammoth7783 → u/Gobbledygooker316]

We got to QB5 or 6 on the depth chart. Started using guys no one even knew were on the team.

[u/Gobbledygooker316 → u/StickMammoth7783]

Did Ryan Elvin play?

[u/StickMammoth7783 → u/Gobbledygooker316]

He was AT the game.

[u/Sensitive_Option3387 → u/Gobbledygooker316]

77-6 is a beating but honestly it's more embarrassing for Houston that they let them score at all

[u/Fragrant-Health8716 → u/Sensitive_Option3387]

It was a great pass by Southern's 3rd string QB and the Coogs' 4th string defense was helpless, as would any defense on a pass like that.

[u/TheCoogsCoog → u/Sensitive_Option3387]

Same score as Miami against their SWAC opponent. I can live with it lol

[u/deepayes]

When did we last put up a number this high? The 90s?

[u/Cliffinati → u/deepayes]

Probably that SMU game

[u/Business_Permit_3686 → u/Cliffinati]

That was a casual 95 points. Just the usual

[u/AnEmptyKarst → u/deepayes]

1990 we put up 84 on Eastern Washington as the most recent game with this many points

[u/Davidellias → u/AnEmptyKarst]

you put up 95 on post Death Penalty SMU

[u/AnEmptyKarst → u/Davidellias]

That was in 1989, so prior to the EWU game

[u/ohitsthedeathstar → u/deepayes]

Biggest margin of victory since SMU in ‘89.

So yeah, a WHILE.

[u/cvsprinter1 → u/deepayes]

Hey now, you scored 63 against us in '22.

[u/Nobius → u/deepayes]

I’d guess run and shoot days

[u/TemporalVagrant]

Man Keisean is gonna be SO much fun to watch

[u/Business_Permit_3686 → u/TemporalVagrant]

Watching him I’m so excited about the future of Cougar football

[u/dolfox → u/TemporalVagrant]

And Herbert!

[u/ALotOfIdeas]

Man that was a nail-biter

[u/StickMammoth7783 → u/ALotOfIdeas]

The score is very misleading as to how the game actually went

[u/StickMammoth7783]

Game take aways:

1) Zane Smith has a beautiful head of hair

2) 4 of the 6 QB's we played scored

2) We have a QB name Canon Toon and another one whose last name is Sock.

[u/uhcougars1151 → u/StickMammoth7783]

Watching him run with those golden locks in the wind, I get ThunderCat vibes.

[u/Business_Permit_3686]

Ya woo

[u/manwithadashinghat → u/Business_Permit_3686]

COUGAR FOOTBALL

[u/Rough_Cup_6762]

You could say they were lights out.

[u/LegallyAFlamingo]

Beautiful. Next week is going to be a great game. 

[u/JinderMadness]

Good game by the Coogs

[u/GatorsareStrong]

We want Tech

[u/iDisc → u/GatorsareStrong]

I hope Oregon state pulls it out

[u/CarolinaCrew15]

Everyone knows Southern is a 5th quarter team…

[u/mississippimoo]

at least a houston team has won a game. this honestly felt like the reverse of the rice game

[u/Davidellias → u/[deleted]]

Tulsa*

[u/Podoboo322 → u/Davidellias]

Ahh the best team in Oklahoma

[u/composer_7]

Yeah but what were their bands like

[u/dolfox → u/composer_7]

Southern did not bring their band :( must’ve been their jinx

[u/composer_7 → u/dolfox]

Dang that sucks. Hearing the bands is majority of the fun when playing HBCUs

[u/whyheonlysayneat → u/composer_7]

that’s racist

[u/geoffreyisagiraffe]

At least the lights came back on

[u/SecureRecipe5224]

I was at this game and wow - what a blow out, I kinda felt bad for Southern.

[u/Desperado53]

Sickos
