Great TD but would have been nice to not give them a chance to tie

Go make a quick stop and get the ball back. Put this thing away early in the third quarter.

This is a situation where Dave needs to show some emotion and get angry. The refs just screwed you bud.

Don't agree with the overturn but he ran right where the blitzing linebacker had been.

We're way better than this Kansas State team. This should already be a multi-score lead.

We need to take control right here. We're better than they are. Make the score reflect that for once.

If they go empty, Avery Johnson is a threat to run it. Adjust accordingly.

Exactly bud. Turner is the kind of back that Briles would recruit. Just needs reps

I like both in the right roles. But Turner is a better option as an every-down back because he's better at getting vertical.

Knighten is more of a Trestan Ebner type.

Got to hold them to three here. We've got to get to the locker room with a lead.

Knighten is 5-11, 212. He's not a small back at all.

Sure would be nice to strip the ball here.

Knighten has unbelievable speed. Turner is a better inside power runner
