I don't think Hartman would matter in this game.  Although we might have 14 at least.  But FSU is significantly better this year, and our oline is significantly worse.  

In terms of win/loss, probably not. In terms of being able to compete, absolutely. Y'all don't have a passing game. Like at all.

I was talking about this game.  Not the season as a whole.  For the season, you are correct.  In fact, with Hartman, we likely beat VT and GT.  

The third stringer came in last week and after he got more comfortable, threw the ball down the field and hit the winning td pass (after a stupid mistake by the Pitt qb).  So we might get better if he plays in later games. 

But for today's game, we could have Tom Brady, and I am not sure it would matter.

It's beyond obvious y'all need a change at QB. I can't be convinced that this guy is the best option y'all have on the roster.

Kansas has blown it. Gives up a TD and then fumbles away the kickoff return.

Really sucks for them that hour long break basically allowed OU a complete reset.

[LinvilleGorge]

Honestly, that was not a hold on OU. That was just a pancake mauling.

[LinvilleGorge]

Kansas just can't stop the run at all. They're badly outmatched in the trenches.

TD OU

Btw, I have watched Jordan Travis play in several games this year, and I am not sure there is a better qb in College Football.  Not sure if that will translate into NFL success, but as a college qb, I haven't seen anyone better this year.

His 2nd half of last year was good too.

Definitely a fan and still would draft him. idk what round he will go in though.

I think Travis is definitely the Heisman front runner.

I'm not sure he's an NFL QB through. He throws a LOT of danger balls and has some real head scratching misses at times.

Well, the backup is out with injury,  and the third string had a grand total of 6 snaps before last week and had never attempted a pass.  That is why Griffis is playing.  But I am more interested to see who starts next week.

Yeah, some team will take a chance on him late first or early second round imo.  They could have a bust, but it could pay off big time if he can make the transition.

Oof. KU QB just completely airmailed a wide open easy TD pass.
