From Yahoo article:
Bob Stoops’ team is 8-6 in their last 14 games, and were favored in all six losses. What Las Vegas sees in the Sooners, I’ll never know. They remain chronically overrated.
Of course, Oklahoma absolutely should have been favored against reeling, 1-4 Texas. And yet the Sooners were outplayed all day, especially in the trenches.
The Longhorns only had to throw 12 passes to beat the Sooners, and they rendered the Oklahoma running game meaningless. Samaje Perine and Joe Mixon, a pair of serious specimens, combined for 60 yards on 16 carries – a continuation of OU’s inability to run the ball with authority this season.
Stoops shook up his staff in the offseason with the goal of beating Baylor and TCU and returning to the top of the Big 12. Beating a 1-4 Texas team was supposed to be a given. Now you have to wonder if the Sooners are headed for yet another season of performing well below expectations.
