Are they on the golf course today?

They aren't playing game number 13 like real conference teams are.

Oh I know, I am just saying they haven't really been some sort of juggernaut like the OP was trying to make them out to be.

I really hate how the Big 12 schedules their games. Backloading it just makes it so hard to really figure out who is actually good.

eta: Baylor was playing their backup in their game against OU too right?

He's cherry picking, when that can be done for pretty much every team.
I like our chances against Clemson. And if we get to play Bama, Lincoln Reilly needs to be smart with his playcalling and minimize the impact of their front 7.

I'm just happy we would probably give the ball to Derrick Henry more than 10 times like the last time we played

It just turned out that way, no one expected OU and OSU to be 10 win teams it's not like they have a crystal ball.
And your second sentence doesn't make any sense

They're legit though and actually play decent defense.

I mean their offense does well in both styles and their OLine has really has significant ly improved.

I might not totally agree with the OP but there's an argument.

Baylor, Okla St and TCU all had there 2nd string QB in the game when they played them. TCU also missing there stud WR which all those teams didn't seem to be the same missing what they were missing.

I think Ohio State would beat OU handily on a neutral field.

Difference between making an argument for them being the best team than saying you can't make one for anyone else

OSU sneaking back in to this has been my biggest fear today. They scare me more than anyone.

Studam was a legit QB its not like he was trash

Okie sts defense was raped on D and turned it over. Rudolph would've made little difference.

Plus Okie State sort of felt like one of those teams all season that was due to get destroyed by someone after sneaking out so many wins against some crap teams.

Stidham is probably better than 1/2 the SEC QB's.

It's close between OU and a healthy Baylor but TCU was a fraud(okie lite piledrived them) and OU won bedlam dominantly.
