That's an issue we Oklahoma fans are struggling with right now.![]()
that's the norm
i went to LSU, then UNT
(but i don't give a rat's ass about UNT sports)
I wish Bob Stoops would call out the Nebraska Defense.
The Nebraska defensive coaches would hike up their skirts and tell Stoops that their husbands will not be happy to hear that Bob called them out.
That was kind of my original point. If Bob isn't smart enough to put together an offense that can score on lowly WVU's defense, maybe he ought not talk smack about some established defenses.

You might if they didn't suck at everything. The decision between unt and LSU isn't a hard one.
Couple of things...
that game was never in jeopardy... Florida had a solid lead going into the final quarter and sat on the ball. Take away that last score form OU... it wasn't close.
Also, the real point of my post is we hear non-stop how great the OU offense is and how the SEC defenses can't keep up...
we heard it then... and we are hearing it now.
So OU was literally scoring like 70pts against most teams back then... and Florida held them under 20.
That is a BIG deal to most people... and is a major statement of what a solid defense can do to a B12 offense. Miss did the SAME thing to Texas Tech that year in the bowl. Too bad Texas didn't get an SEC team that year, else we would have had a 3 peat on SEC defenses vs. B12 offenses.
That game in 2008 was never in jeopardy... after those goal line stands.. the momentum was in Florida's court and was never given back.

offense is completely different. i hate OU, but you have to admit 200+ rushing yards on ND is impressive. They are running a power game out of 4-5 wr sets. Very hard to defend. I do not think Bell is a great passer, but he brings a toughness to what has been a soft offense. I always believed OU would have a plus offense this yr and it looks liek it jsut took a little time to find the formula. The DL, now that is a real issue. I think you are barking up the wrong tree on this one. OSU beat Buffalo by just 20 pts, does that mean Baylor beats OSU by 30?
Oh, no question bob needs to keep his mouth shut. The best thing for Oklahoma to do is keep their heads down and win this week's game.
You really need to lay off the WVU thing. That was knight's offense. Now it's bell's. Judge this offense by what happens after bell took over. We've been over that.
Stoops started a freshman qb who threw int's all over the red zone. Since then Blake Bell has come in and set records. Trevor Knight was playing like an Sec quarterback.

So the defense of being called a bad defense is to compare yourself to one of Stoop's worst defenses. Interesting defense.
Hopefully OU gets a parity SEC team in a bowl game.. even a bad SEC defense is generally light years ahead of the B12 defenses...
Both of you guys - I'm not saying OU's offense now isn't good. It's clearly running better under Bell. What I'm saying right now is that Stoops needs to be quiet about other defenses when he trotted out a truly pathetic offense at the beginning of the season. If you guys are saying Knight was so clearly not ready to play, what does that say about not only Stoops' coaching ability, but OU's defense, who Knight won the competition against? Would Knight still be the QB if he hadn't gotten hurt?
some of you team sec guys really crack me up...
Knight's talent is 100% there and I have no doubt he was very impressive in practice. But doing it in practice and doing it in front of 85k screaming fans are two very different things. Again, I agree stoops needs to shit his mouth and worry about winning their games.
As for knight, I think bell would've taken over regardless. The injury was just very convenient.
Then why couldnt Ok handle him last year in the bowl game, if he isnt any different than any other QB in the Big 12 in recent years.
