the OU team vs. Ohio State after the last 2 games shows we are not the team we thought we were

Having Bledsoe back will help with the rotation. But we still have Mike, so I doubt the defensive can be dominating,

I would have to say that hopes exist that there are concentrated efforts to locate a solid OU Defensive Coordinator. I just wonder how Venebles is doing what he is at Clemson...when he was not getting it done as a Sooner coach. Is ACC really that piss poor?

Venables was always hand cuffed. As great of a recruiter as Venables, he couldn't get the override to recruit, his style.

Bob and Mike have always been a "Back 7" style defense. Venables is a "Front 7" guy. With recruiting, the Stoop Brothers or Bob, would always take a chance on a DB, Hybrid LB/DE or Hybrid, LB/S, over a Dlineman.

I've said this before and will say it again. It all starts up front. It's not a line. All games are won in the trenches. We have decent RB's, not great but our Oline makes the holes and these guys look good. Just imagine what Mixon would look like, with this line a year older? Or what our Defense would look like with Ed Oliver?
 
Bull, I'll take a little action on that shutout. What say you?

Are you giving me odds?

I'll take 2-1 and we have a bet

We will bet $50 for a charity of your choice. If I win you pay a $100 to my charity.

I talked to our friend iasooner and the loser will mail a check payable to charity to him.

Let me know your answer tonight WNAS.

Same old same old board mouth. You're writing checks w/ your posts that you won't cash. No odds. You're the one that mentioned the shut out. Not me. Because of this, you should give me 2-1 odds.

No odds. Let me know. I'll send Gary a check. My charity is the 100 Club of Houston.
 
Nope for a shutout I would need odds. Hey the score could be 55-3 and I would lose the bet.

I think OU stomps them and like I said in my opening post I did not say OU would shut them out I said.......
"A Sooner shutout would not surprise me"

No bet.

I'm more concerned with this team staying healthy and winning....and finding some depth at linebacker....and next week's game against Texas than I am about OU being able to shut out a beat up and outmanned opponent.
And unless Iowa State has a Randy McEachern in its woodpile, OU will win big today. Who's Randy McEachern ?.....anyone remember the 1977 Texas game ?

Cockiness comes in all sizes. Yours appears to be the kind that shrinks when discussed. Enjoy the game.
 
1, 2, 3 .....

Cue the excuses of execution.

Cue the posts of analyzations of certain calls, schemes, plays or players that didn't execute.
Wait a second that QB spent two years at Oregon St. and a year at JUCO and had never started a game. Mikey had to respect the competition his defense was up against....
