% of a win after watching the KU game twice. We need some serious help.
Texas Tech---I can see OU winning this one, at home may help. I'd say 75% chance of a win.
Iowa State---At home and ISU has beat OU in Norman lately. I say 60% chance of a win.
Baylor--- On the road even with Caleb doing some magic. I say 55% chance of a win
OSU---This one is 50% for me and on the road. It doesn't feel good a month and a half out.
 
depends on the defense should beat Tech but as Saturday showed who knows maybe after the bye week who knows maybe will get DTY & WW back that may help we'll have to wait and see.

I’ll take those odds and raise on a hunch and winning the return game for #7 in Dallas. Maybe even a first round game in the finals (if it’s Cincinnati). It would end badly if we face George this year I fear

Tech - 70% chance to win. The offense can not come out like it did against KU but unless the D can get some stops giving OU more than 3 touches in first half that 70% dwindles down to about 60%. Tech will attack the OU secondary and they have to win a majority of those for OU to get the ball back to the offense.

Baylor - 55%. Make no mistake this Bears team is better than we think. Just might be the best D our offense will face this season. Offensively BU is no offensive slouch ( KU as inept as they are moved the ball up and down easily). BU is at home like it or not will likely beat everyone rlse remaining on its schedule. Yes I think they beat Texas this weekend. This will be a 4 quarter game and OU better be ready to play a full 60 minutes to win this one.

Iowa St - 60% chance to win. If Sooners lose to BU this reduces to 50-50 in my opinion. The reason I give it 60 is because its in Norman. Purdy might have a field day and if he does CW and company has to match them point for point.

Oklahoma St - Two possibilities. If OU enters undefeated I put the win at 80%. OU just dominates the winning side of this series. If OU enters with a loss to either BU or ISU it drops to 65%. If OU loses to both BU and ISU that drops to 45%. The confidence of this team would be destroyed and they just might not give a damn at this point.

just the way I view it.

Kansas exposed OU's weaknesses both defensively and offensively.
But with perhaps a few wounded players returning, a 2:30 start (to avoid a 6:20 am wake up call), and a week of good preparation, those weaknesses should not linger.
Plus, OU probably got a good scare at Kansas that should jump start the team's resolve going down the stretch.
I see a score around 41-21, OU.

I've heard Redmond may be back for Tech. If so, that would allow Thomas some time on the outside. I'm hoping we get a decent pass rush in this game. Unsure on Washington and Yell though.
 
I’m going to predict that if OU wins out they will win the national championship. I know, it’s a bold prediction 😂

IF.... we make it to the first round and play Geogia... this will be a much much better team than we are seeing today. To get to round one, we will have to be undefeated. And IF this team is undefeated it will have matured and changed right before us. We're about to play the better part of the conference and beating them all, plus a Champ game will give a tremendous amount of confidence to this team. In addition, Caleb will gain a lot of experience & be a better QB. As well, a bunch from the 2020 class will do the same. My point is that it's going to be very difficult to do this. But if done, it is also going to change the make up of this team. I'll take my chances against any team including Georgia if this team enters the playoffs as an undefeated conference champ.
 
Agree.
Winning out the regular season and the Big 12 Championship Game will absolutely indicate this 2021 team has arrived and worthy of making the 4 team playoff.
Lots of improvement can make it happen, starting right now.

OK. Eighteen and a half percent chance of going undefeated in the regular season. Well, that's much better than our chances at the beginning of the season. That 18.5% looks pretty good to me! Boomer Sooner!
 
To quote Arnold Schwarzenegger, "if it bleeds, we can kill it!"

Every team on the remaining schedule has bled (taken a loss).
So, unless you believe there's another team in the Big 12 that's equal to or greater than OU, OU should kill TT, BU, ISU, and Ok st.

Don't overthink it. OU will prevail. #OUDNA is deep in this team.

Purdy vs Caleb,
I like the percentages and our team knows what it takes to win.
Best of luck to your Clones on 11/20
 
Well, a cyclone fan might figure that. 😂
Careful there partner because this may be as good as it gets for OU. That move to the SEC is going to reduce CFP appearances dramatically for the Sooners. Will the faithful put up with that? The only saving grace is the $$$ will be good.

And cyclone will still be in ames. Doin what they do. Am I right?
 
Good stuff clickbait. This board is relevant because OU is relevant; that will not change in the SEC. ISU is irrelevant because they always have been, and that will continue as the Big 12 slowly falls apart. And even if the Conference stays in place, ISU will continue to be irrelevant, because it just comes naturally. By the way Caleb Williams has only played a handful of games for OU and he is, literally, better than any ISU quarterback in the school's desolate football history.

Interesting that you would use irrelevant. We know that is going to happen to UT when it comes to football in the SEC, but will it happen to OU? We will find out next week just how good Caleb is. BTW, I am taking ISU on the money line next week.

OU has been in two conferences; they did pretty good in both. ISU, two conferences as well with the same results: irrelevant. Next week's game results does not change how good Caleb Williams is. As an ISU fan, I am sure you are used to taking it.

The past is the past. Army was a powerhouse in the 40s. Things change all the time. Look at Nebraska.
