I'm sorry, but Orakpo EASILY has at least 6 sacks in that game if Phil "Fat Fuck" Loadholt doesn't hold him ON EVERY PLAY. Rak was wreaking some serious havoc in that game...

There really were a lot of holds/takedowns that were not called. Oh well... just hope officials will watch for it after it being on a national stage and seen by everyone.

Orakpo made a lot of money for himself today. He's playing himself into a top 10 pick and maybe better.

Even though they were trying to hold Rak on every play, he was just too much for even the vaunted ou o-line, and at the end of the game was just totally disruptive to their offense. Gotta be Consensus All-American this year.

I kept forgetting he was going against a guy who was 110 lbs. heavier than he was and quick on his feet too. However, Rak made him look silly when he didn't move his feet.

I was screaming "HOLDING" at my TV over half of the defensive plays. He was definitely being held

He may have not gotten there but he was so close so many times that he made Bradford think. Best I have seen since Brackens.

I think every play, he was either held or got to the QB. Hell, on at least one of those sacks, he was held, and ran through the hold.

He probably cost Loadhold (that's how I spell it) a lot of money today

You know, I hated all the posts this week about OU's "systemic holding."

On the play Melton got called for the late hit that looked like intentional grounding, the tackle had a handful of jersey first. They only called one holding on OU that I can remember.

Maybe I'll have my wife read these posts. She thinks I am making it up about the dirt burglar's incessant holding and wonders why I scream at the TV and officiating. I believe it was his first sack where he was being taken down as he got Bradford and there was no call. What part of the game was the official watching? |

In reply to: Henry didn't have a good game but I agree with this. I felt like he was held on the play. |

One of the finest was Robinson on Gideon on the slip screen TD.

I actually thought Loadholt got the best of Rak for most of the first half. I didn't see hardly any holding from my seats at the bottom of the upper deck on the 50--I saw a 380 pound dude sticking his arm out and stopping a guy who weighs 100 pounds less.

Prodigy, on TV I could not only see Rak getting held in the 1st half, on at least 2 plays he was held by his facemask. I was beside myself.

Next week he goes against a redshirt freshman. I can't wait to see that.

Well, I didn't see it, and I think generally fans from a school tend to see holding that's not there.
