OU and Cowpokes...we got Bedlam

[sooner78wakeboard]

I think that weather plays a bit of a part...it's going to be cold real cold. A high of 26, 40% change of rain/snow and windy. I think that favor's OU's offense, and also think that being an 11:00 AM game helps OU out as well.

It all depends on how the offense plays. The Sooner defense will give OU a chance in the game, but they can only do so much...it won't help if the offense conduct's a plethora of 3 and out's (a la Baylor). They held Bryce Petty, to 204 yards who threw for 359 against OSU. But if the defense says out on the field all game and gets worn out like against Baylor...it will just open up the run for the Pokes.

OU held KSU to just 24 yards rushing which is huge. Waters threw for 348 against OU, but after some halftime adjustments, specifically assigning Colvin to shadow Lockett. Things went in OU's favor. Lockett had 206 yards in the 1st half, to 72 yards in the second half.

Think it will be a much better game than people anticipate. Don't really think the crowd will effect the Sooners as much as people say. The Sooners have played on the road for some loud games, @Southbend, @Baylor, even @ KSU.

well. hopefully it isn't like the Ice Bowl in 1985. That would be brutal....for both teams.

The line opened at plus 10 1/2, I think it will drop due to weather. I'm thinking 7-9 at game time.

Last time Vegas had us as a double digit dog was the Baylor game. Of course Vegas obviously knows nothing of rivarly games. They had LSU as a 14.5 favorite against Arky last week. They won (barely) but not even close to covering the spread. I am tempted to take the Sooners and the points but it never seems to work out me betting on my team.

Yeah, I don't bet on OU period.

Good news is Ford is ready to play. Supposedly had a leg injury in the Baylor game and was kept out of the last games.

 

[MarkOU]

That is good news.

 

[KansasSooner]

And Stoops paid another visit to the top running back recruit in California. I really want to see Ford get some carries, he was impressive when he was in.

 

[MarkOU]

With Williams out he should get more. We all know they ain't going to give finch any touches.

 

[Wheat]

Oh, I'm sure it will be packed, supposed to be 7 degrees at kick off.

 

[Wheat]

dunno, but if the roads are still bad, it may affect the number of people going.

 

[outofyourmind]

I'll be watching in my warm living room.
Lets get this shit going.
Weather...... the great equalizer.

Just a matter of time.....dang it's cold out!!

 

[BoomerNTX]

The team that can grind it out, wins. Not going to be a day of precision passing. On the other side of the ball, the team that can stop the run wins. We got our work cut out for us. I'm going to enjoy it from the comfort of my living room. Already have given my UT buddies hell.....got the chili simmering.

BFS, baby!

 

[BoomerNTX]

Alrighty then. Special teams shootout. Some late game magic with QB3 for the win. Yeah, just as I called it.

Was enjoyable. What a Bedlam installment.

 

[sooner78wakeboard]

How about that Bedlam game!!!!

 

[sooner78wakeboard]

And how about that last second touchdown that was just the icing on the cake....
