It won’t be hard having some success. When was the last time the Vols played in the Conference Championship? OU may have played in a weaker conference but we won 14 and Texas second with 3. We didn’t get drilled by Georgia in the CFP game. We lost in OT. It sounds like you Vols just want to use the SEC for being so irrelevant this century.
OU’s last national championship was 2000. With all those Big 12 conference championships. UT’s was 1998. We’ve been terrible recently, but our last title has about as must dust on it as yours.
We had a downturn following the end of the Fulmer era in which you benefited for two matchups…it happens. See your program post Switzer/pre-Stoops. Took longer for us to correct because our dysfunction was fueled by incompetent administration snowballing down from the President to AD. It’s different when everybody is pulling in the same direction with the same mission statement…which I only assume is your experience with your program. Not acknowledging that and beating this “You’re doomed to live the worst of your history.” refrain over and over while resenting any dissent on OUR MESSAGE BOARD is akin to wooing a respectable lady with the pitch you use for Moore Meth prostitutes…”Shut up and let me plop on top of you!”
How many CFP have you played this century. We may not have won a title but unlike you we’ve been relevant mostly the whole century. We’ve played in 4 Finals and 3 CFP semis. How about you? None, One, ? On UGA I’m responding to comments we’ve been blown out by SEC teams. LOL that 15-0 LSU drilled a lot of teams. That’s not a barometer …. Too funny. If you’d have played them oh my. Versus Bama we lost 45-34 but out scored them 34-17 pretty much the last 3 quarters. Okay they beat us 4 more points than UGA in the final. I’m not puffing my chest. I’m being objective. Oklahoma is going to have a tougher time in the SEC. But we aren’t little red riding vs the big bad wolf. You guys are acting like you guys are going waltz right into Norman and waltz right back out. That could happen but Vegas is favoring us. Just say it’s going to be a tough game on the road with 2 teams almost identically ranked in the polls.
If your o-line coach was #1 he wouldn’t need 5 new transfers to start, he’s been there too long for that. And we can compare Wanya Morris & Darnell Wright. Both 5 stars, same class same college. Wanya transfers underdeveloped, Wright stays underdeveloped as well once Elarbee got to him. Wright goes on to be a top10 pick, Wanya got lucky to be a 3rd rounder. Wright has already established himself as a future star in the NFL, Wanya getting beat out by a 2nd round rookie.
And I agree. He screwed up big time. I’m not happy in the least. In fact I’m livid. But we are starting 3 new transfers not 5. 5 new starters though. Wanya got lucky because of Bedenbaugh’s stellar reputation within the NFL. Again I’m predicting 8-4 unless our OL is better than I think.If your o-line coach was #1 he wouldn’t need 5 new transfers to start, he’s been there too long for that.

Injuries do matter to QB’s and really any key player. Oklahoma’s defense is vastly improved and depth especially. They got 2 top 10 DT’s in recruiting that just got here. One was Rivals #1 and he’s nor the other have cracked the 2 deep. They have 2 first team preseason SEC defensive first teamers. They got a transfer DT that was a freshman all-American in the transfer portal. They have a 5 star DE now a sophomore that graded 5th according to PFF. They have the 5th most receiving production in the country returning at WR. We aren’t worried about roster too much competing except the OL.
That’s exactly what most of us expect, but your boy started this thread to talk ****. You’re on our board, buster. You don’t get to throw crap at the walls and then demand respect. Why is it so important to you that we acknowledge how great OU is?
So the new analyst is better than the OC who just became a head coach? Got it. And I’m not impressed with you putting up points with Heupel’s disciple against a conference full of 3 stars. Your QB is pick happy, and I’ll take our wideouts over Purdue scraps and whatever else you guys have in po’dunk Oklahoma. You’re not good, you suck and we’re boat racing that arse.
