Anytime someone says "OU should win handily" - I get a bit nervous :bluegrab:While I understand the sentiment, if OU's OL is really what people say it is, Baker Mayfield should have ample time to stand in one place until a receiver comes open. That shouldn't take too long anyway, unless Baylor all of a sudden learns advanced coverages.
Anytime someone says "OU should win handily" - I get a bit nervous :bluegrab:It almost sounds like Cousin Fred has become a believer in the Evil, Capricious Football Gods.
Its good to see TCU and Patterson win. TCU beat OSU rather easily Saturday.TCU looked very impressive last Sat
I guess if TCU beats OU in the regular season they will have to beat them again to be the champion or vice versa what a bunch of crapExpect this to happen right away in the first year. The folly of the Big 12 always has a way of revealing itself right out of the box.
all it will do should they split is keep the Big 12 out of the playoffs
It almost sounds like Cousin Fred has become a believer in the Evil, Capricious Football Gods.No, dear jcg, you of course know well that's a preoccupation exclusively reserved for you burnt orange types, with your cries of "Doomed" and overall lack of froth even when you win coz you don't want to piss off the EFCGs by overtly exposing your hookem-inflated egos, but the joke of course is on you as there's just no way y'all can cover up that Texas sized arrogance that just constantly exudes from every crevice of your collective cowbrained unconscious, and will continue to seep forth unchecked, even after years of inexorable five and sevening and general gnashing of those bovine molars. The EFCGs will always just be a Texas mental kind of thing.
... OU going into a game with big odds is sometimes an invitation to the nightmare that seems uniquely ours. Give a Sooner a big favorable and we'll just kind of kick back and say, oh, yeah, we've got this, and that's when disaster is most likely to strike. It's not Alabama, Tennessee, Auburn or Ohio State that gives us problems ... it's TCU, Texas in their down years, Baylor lately, and Texas Tech on occasion, all teams we should otherwise beat, that cause the biggest Sooner headaches. I've been watching this beloved program of ours for nearly 50 years, and I've seen too many Sooner eggs laid right there on the field when they're predicted to have an easy win. My first OU game attended in Norman was the 23-3 upset by Kansas in 1975, a year we beat Pittsburgh, Miami (Fla), Texas, Colorado, Nebraska and Michigan...You know what Shakespeare said as Friar Tuck in Romeo & Juliet: if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and smells like rose then by any oher name what you're talking about are ECFGs and it's all just si man-ticks.
and what the ECFGs hate tie most is when you pretend they dont existAin't that the truth?! When those talented Sooners end up with 3 losses, we'll know why.
