Sort of their take on the preseason coaches poll.
Interesting comments about OU.
"No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners
Poor, Sooners. The minute they knocked off Alabama in last years Sugar Bowl you knew theyd be the designated team that gets propped up way too high to start the next season, thus creating unrealistic expectations. Oklahoma will boast an experienced and athletic defense, but voters are blindly assuming that Trevor Knight and the offense will look more like they did that one night in January than the 12 games before that, ranking 81st nationally in yards per attempt (6.8).
Put it this way: What happened over the offseason that lifted OU seven spots higher than a Baylor team that won the Big 12 last season and beat the Sooners 41-12?"
I think they are right about Oklahoma. I can't wait for that game!! Has Missouri and Georgia as being ranked too low.
Ten teams ranked too high or too low in first coaches poll of 2014 | FOX Sports
