Football Does anyone actually think OU has a shot in hell at beating Florida? - Page 8

I don't. Florida is going to kill them. Alabama's defense only got them to punt on time. OU's defense is not nearly as good.

Florida is more than fast enough to halt the OU offense as well. Stoops will be denied again.

Texas got robbed. They had a tougher schedule and beat OU. BCS is so full of shit. USC would have been a better choice to face Florida.

You don't set an NCAA record for most consecutive 60 point games because you suck. OU will hold their own and probably kick ass, too. OU is better than some think.

No, you do that in part because you keep your starters in when you're up by 34 points with 4mins left and still chuck the ball 50yds downfield.

Is this a complaint about running up the score? Is this 1999 or something? Every team in college keeps the pedal all the way down now for four full quarters, strength of victory is too big in the polls not to.

Oh, boo hoo. An offensive juggernaut scored points. That's pretty lame. Prepare for the best offense you've faced all year.

No complaints, but if you're going to beat your chest over scoring 60+ then it should be pointed out how that was accomplished.

And it's completely irrelevant when every single team tries to run up the score, but only OU scored like they did.

Every team leaves their starters in with 4mins left and a 34point lead and throws bombs down the field? No, not every team does that.

To set a D-1 record for consecutive 60+ games, yeah, you do.

This is another silly argument. I could argue the SEC defenses appear to be good because they don't play quality offenses. The good news is that we get to find out, I just don't think its going to be the domination the Florida/SEC crowd envisons.

The only thing we can point to is the Texas-Arkansas game since it was the only one played between the confrences this season. Arkansas averaged 20.9 points in conference and were dominated 52-10. Florida beat them 38-7 and Alabama won 49-14. Those are pretty similar scores, so I would expect a competitive game.

MLB Ryan Reynolds tore his ACL and is out for the season.

I fully expect the OU defense to make believers out of the rest of the country. If you were on that squad would you not be fired up beyond belief to prove all the naysayers wrong?

Should be a very good, entertaining game. Too bad Texas is stuck with a crappy Tosu team in their bowl game. Probably should have been against USC, would have been a better game.

Who cares. It reminds me of the line from "The Rock":

"Losers talk about 'trying their best'. Winners go home a fuck the prom queen."

I didn't whine when T-Tech hung all those points on us for our homecoming, it wasn't their responsiblity to be "responsible" to us. What a worthless thing to complain about.
