North Texas is a top 25 team. Sounds crazy, but that's how they're playing right now. Mason Fine is legit.

Their only real tests from here on out:

vs. La Tech 9/29
@ UAB 10/20
vs. FAU 11/15

I know they really don't play a tough schedule at all, but if they run the table and all other G5s have a loss, I don't see how you keep them out of the New Years Six Bowls.

The one thing they ARE doing to make their case is beating the shit out of everyone they've played so far, like they should.

Get Oklahoma out of your top 5’s. Maybe your top 10’s.

La Tech will take them out.

OU is still the team to beat in the XII. They haven't faced a triple option team in years to my knowledge, I think this game just fucked with their flow on offense. They still did good on offense.

They played a triple option team. Don't panic. When you don't play that offense all the time, it can give your trouble.

On College Football Final. one dude had Oklahoma 5th, the other had them 4th(and ahead of Clemson, so take his rankings for what they are worth)

While it’s a different version of the triple option, we did face it from Tulane last year in Norman and they killed us in the 1st quarter before a pick 6 in the second totally turned that game around. Shut them down after that though.

How can you possibly rank them now?

i guess but they are 3-1, with a qb thats on fire, laid it on houston too

He is pretty good so they'll get in some shootouts but their defense still sucks... they got torched by Ole Miss in week 1 and since that game Ole Miss has looked awful

oh their d is bad, they're just gonna outscore u or lose

Right, basically the main ability they have is that dynamic offense with how good their QB is

If you come into a game sloppy against them they'll suddenly be all over you like last night
