Anyone else hear on the Franchise about the stats tonight as compared to the TX game? The stats were almost identical in terms of rushing yards, points scored, 2 100 yard rushers, and rushing yards allowed. Clemson must have studied that tape and realized we were vulnerable in the trenches.

On another note, what weaknesses was Perine talking about that we could expose? I surely didn't see any
 
Our offensive line wasnt up to snuff again just like the Texas game. Some of the blocking schemes looked way too complicated for them and they would blow obvious blocking opportunities in order to run to their assignment....where there was nobody to block.

That was the difference in my opinion. Their d line was too good, and our d line really missed walker.
 
I'm sure we missed Walked but I don't think it would have made a difference. On more than one occasion we simply tried to push them out of bounds instead of tackling them. It was a poor effort
 
It's hard to gauge this team as they played Baylor without their #1 QB and TCU without Boykin. I've never thought little OSU was very good. Just the eye test says Baylor when healthy is the best team in the conference and they would still get hammered by Bama. Entire Big 12 has a lot of growing up to do before anyone is going to win a natty. You compare where Texas and OU were in 08 compared to today, and Texas is a dumpster fire, and OU though better is no where near where they need to be to compete with the Bama's of the world. Long term conference realignment is going to be necessary to bring the best of the best on a consistent basis to any big 12 school IMHO. Texas made a deal with the devil and it's hurt everyone in the Big 12.
 
Its the same problem OU has had for several years now which is not being able to match up in the trenches with the top teams. We need a couple of more big time lineman on both sides of the ball. We got absolutely no push tonight
