Game Thread: OU @ Notre Dame

ND tried that once, that's why we're only 1-9 against you and not 10-0.

And here I thought it was because you guys have sucked for the last couple of decades. LOL

only five teams that have beaten Oklahoma more than once have a winning record against Oklahoma:

Notre Dame: 9-1 vs Oklahoma
Southern Cal: 6-2-1 vs Oklahoma
Northwestern: 3-1 vs Oklahoma
Texas: 52-40-5 vs Oklahoma
Miami: 4-3 vs Oklahoma

meanwhile, Oklahoma is 6-1 vs both Florida State and Oregon, for ex

Actually it's not.

Cubs have 2 World Series Championships while the Yankees have 25+. In regards to Notre Dame and Oklahoma, and your comment, it would be the other way around.

Nice try though.

Should be 7-0. That Oregon game was taken from OU by PAC 12 refs.

Oct. 27, 1956: Oklahoma’s Clendon Thomas (drafted #19 overall in 1958 Draft) eludes Notre Dame’s Paul Hornung (drafted #1 overall in 1957 Draft) during the Sooners’ 40-0 win in 1956. Yet the Irish got revenge the next year, with an improbable 7-0 victory at second-ranked Oklahoma in 1957. That victory ended the Sooners' NCAA-record winning streak at 47 games.

Oct. 27, 1956: Oklahoma's Clendon Thomas, right returns an interception as he is chased by Notre Dame's #17 Jim Morse (taken #148 overall in the 1957 Draft)

Nov. 16, 1957: Notre Dame head coach Terry Brennan is carried off Owen Field by Jim Just (44) and other players following their 7-0 win over Oklahoma in an NCAA college football game in Norman, Okla. Notre Dame's Ron Toth (43) and Jim Colosimo (41) also celebrate the final. That victory ended the Sooners' NCAA-record winning streak at 47 games

What?! We own you and have all the important numbers over you. I meant 9-1 not 1-9.

 

[Wishbone]

The bigger factor is Stoops is 0-2 vs. notre dame. I think any other school he has played more than once has a winning record against him. This includes Alabama, Fsu, Texas, Oregon, Okla. St., Ucla, A&M, etc.

 

[Sportsguy9695]

I think this is gonna be a tough one for the Irish to win

I think occupant knew that but just used it to get one over on me. Jolly good comeback.

If Blake Bell starts, I honestly have no clue how ND will win. We couldn't even stop MSU's ground game and their offense is horrible. ND's offense isn't as good as it was last year, we are better at WR, but much worse at QB, so it doesn't even matter. I've been practically spot on with every ND outcome with the exception of the Purdue game, and I think OU takes this one 27-17 or so, unfortunately.

My old man was at that game. He said the entire stadium was in shock and nobody moved for what it seemed like forever. Like it was some sorta bad dream.

Just got hooked up with 4 free tickets to the game.

Notre Dame is about to get spanked.

I agree! I said OTHER PEOPLE down played Bama's win. Now those same people are already making excuses. It is obvious some people's reading skills leave a lot to be desired (not yours NDHoosier). Some of us state facts as I did above with scores and some people just run their mouths! I hope ND destroys OU if not for one person in particular. I don't think it's going to happen but one can sure hope!

OU should have beaten ND last year, they were not that great. The game was tied at 13 until about halfway through the fourth quarter, then OU imploded. Oklahoma wasn't that good of a team last year, but both teams are different from the ones that played last year.

I give OU the nod, 34-20
