In the past I've taken up for Mike Stoops. But I find it hard to believe we don't have enough talent to stop Iowa State's third string QB.

I saw all I needed when we had them backed up to third and long on their own two and Mike decided his brilliant fucking call was to bring three and drop 8 into coverage. :L

He thought it was Tom Brady and not a 3rd string QB, who had NEVER taken a meaningful snap, in College Football. Mike Stoops knows, you can't rattle someone like that....:trash::crazy::scratch:

After we couldn't stop their LB playing QB I was wanting to see their center just snap it to himself and throw a TD pass.

Mike Stoops is like an old dog with arthritis and nut cancer; he needs to be put out of his misery.

I really like the Sooners in this game. Too much power and tradition plus they can easily get back in the playoff discussion with a win

I just want to thank OU for giving me the confidence on the high to take them -8.5.

Thanks Mike!

Little nervous to be honest. Texas is coming off 2 wins and OU just got embarrassed. Coming in pissed off has its advantages

Especially when you are the better team in the first place. Injuries are the only thing that has me concerned in this one.

Im shocked that OU opened up at more than a touchdown favorite.

No, Vegas is not going to risk getting killed and that could happen if they opened with a bad line.

Texas has the advantage in injuries. its the only thing this team does consistently, get injured. There hasn't been the same starters on the OL since week 2. Lost a few right before the season. Nelson missed the KSU game. The 3 DL pretty much went the entire game vs OSU. That won't work vs OU

Would it work against Iowa State? Could you beat Baylor by more than 8? If so then you've got a shot.

Only two things Texas has going for it in this game

One, Sam Ehlinger may be a freshman QB, but he's faced and nearly beaten USC at USC.....this game isn't going to scare or rattle him

Two, Texas DC Todd Orlando seems to be fully prepared for OU and Baker Mayfield. I don't think OU will do anything that will surprise him. Players may not make the plays, but they should have the right calls and personnel on the field. Injuries may derail that but those are the only things that give me any confidence whatsoever.

I've noticed Orlando really likes specific packages for certain situations. It will be interesting to see how he handles it of Riley doesn't let him sub.

You forgot you have Mike Stoops going for you.

Is there a place further from the sideline than the press box?

Can we put Mike on the big Ferris Wheel? That way he can only see into the stadium when his Ferris Wheel car is way up high?
