With Kyler Murray (and most QBs) you have to take the good with the bad. He will make mistakes but he will also keep OU in every game. And the scales will tip overwhelming in favor of Kyler making plays and leading the Sooners to victory. If OU wins the Big 12 and makes it again to the playoffs, the Sooners will have Kyler Murray to thank. I've been watching Kyler Murray play since his Sophomore year in High School and back then he made similar mistakes and then would lead his team to victory. However, in High School at least, he had a defense capable of making stops with two minutes left in the game.“Not the victory but the action. Not the goal but the game. In the deed the glory.”

Unlike KM, Taysom Hill destroyed Texas. Twice! And looked superhuman in the processesOriginally posted by Paperback Writer View PostMaybe he will be as good as Taysom Hill some day
But I digress, he wasn't as good as Taysom as a junior in high school when I was drinking the Kyler Murray Kool-Aid while getting frustrated with Taysom's passing accuracy.

I also remember Taysom Hill beating Nebraska so those victories over Texas, well....Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostUnlike KM, Taysom Hill destroyed Texas. Twice! And looked superhuman in the processes
Had the Sooner defense showed up, the same could have been said about Kyler Murray destroying UT and looking superhuman. The books not yet closed on Kyler Murray versus Texas. He will have at least one more opportunity, possibly more.“Not the victory but the action. Not the goal but the game. In the deed the glory.”

I’m not sure we watched the same game. Oklahoma’s D stopped Texas three times in the fourth Q alone. Texas only forced two punts the entire game. It was Kyler’s turnovers that made the difference.Originally posted by Paperback Writer View PostHowever, in High School at least, he had a defense capable of making stops with two minutes left in the game.

Leave it to Paperback Writer to drudge up the Murray-Hill debate on a day when Murray turns the ball over multiple times and blows a game his heavily-favored team was supposed to win. Meanwhile, Hill is taking snaps at QB on Sunday.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss
There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

But OU's D didn't stop UT on their game winning final drive. Kyler Murray gave up 10 points on turnovers yet rallied the Sooners with three TDs in the fourth quarter to tie the game. Maybe Kyler's two turnovers were the difference but, IMO, his 5 TDs more than make up for it.Originally posted by Babs View PostI’m not sure we watched the same game.

I thought it ironic that JL would mention: "Kyler Murray is unreal. He is a freak of nature." after chastising me for comparing him to Hill.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostLeave it to Paperback Writer to drudge up the Murray-Hill debate on a day when Murray turns the ball over multiple times and blows a game his heavily-favored team was supposed to win.

I suppose that would be an improvement for a Husker fan.Originally posted by Paperback Writer View PostKyler Murray gave up 10 points on turnovers yet rallied the Sooners with three TDs in the fourth quarter to tie the game.

That would be an immense improvement. It has been a few years since Nebraska has had a Heisman winner at QB.Originally posted by Babs View PostI suppose that would be an improvement for a Husker fan.“Not the victory but the action. Not the goal but the game. In the deed the glory.”
