Lol, it's gonna get ugly in Norman this year, but it's gonna be oh so pretty come October in Dallas.
I'd say ou has about as much chance beating Texas this year as they do going back in time and beating us last year, which is to say, not much chance at all.
It's a shame stoops might ruin peterson's nfl career.
Seriously, how many olinemen do you guys have on scholarship? 6?

honestly i think it would be stretching it a bit to claim we even had 6...you do have a great point about peterson, i think stoops is taking a big chance with petersons future by depending on him as much as he does. i don't think he has ever really fully recovered before stoops puts him right back in! how many times did you see peterson playing last year with the ankle so heavily taped that it was to the point of being rediculous?? but all of this still being true...you do remember you guys don't have mr. young anymore don't ya!! that could doom texas right there!(lol)

Agreed.
I've been laughing my ass off all summer reading articles saying OU would be a frontrunner for the national title. Bomar hasn't impressed me, maybe he would've this year had he been able to stay, but what did these sportswriters see in last year's ou team that made them think ou would be that good? Especially with all the losses to the o-line?
And the only thing said about the horns is, well, they lost vince young, possibly the greatest college football player ever. What? Vince didn't even win the heisman. I love revisionist history.
But then they also say ohio state is another frontrunner, and didn't they lose half of their defense to the 1st round of the nfl?
Man, is one of the requirements of being a sportswriter is to do as much crack as motley crue?

I know. It's like these national media folks can't wait to play up their traditional picks which are the Souheastern conf. or the pac-10 (well mainly usc). Now and then they they throw in a big east team (west virginia) or a big-10. It's like they have short memories or engage in wishful thinking.
Yes, Ohio state lost most of their defense. They return a few at the line.
Oklahoma was a joke of a pick. They have more or less the same team as last year, except maybe less of an offensive line.
Texas returns so much more talent on both sides of the ball. At least the coaches (poll) had a better idea....except they picked oklahoma 5th. I would have had OU 12th before the events of last week. Now, maybe 20th.

After the Bomar incident I don't think Oklahoma is going to beat Oregon to start the season. Playing at Autzen is no easy task. Oklahoma should never have been considered as a national title threat to begin with but whatever, teams like that always get slobbered over by the media.
