What other message boards are saying (Oklahoma Pre Game Edition)

They beat Mizzou 77-0

Missouri Sees Enough 77-0

"I know of nothing we could have done to stop it," said OU coach Barry Switzer, whose Sooners have outscored their first five Big Eight opponents, 254-13. "Our offense played extremely well, and we made no turnovers. Talent, speed and depth on offense created that score."
Ahhh, the Norman Conquest game. I remember it well.

Yeah, Switzer is a real humanitarian.

-Running an onside kick when up 30-0? And he had the gall to whine about the refs last year after being the biggest beneficiary of sec reffing the year before with Jason Autry’s crew? I’ll cheer on anybody that can mug this team. Heupel is a douche.

-As much as I love OU, I just don’t see us winning… I think def will play well but just run out of juice in 3rd/4th. Offense is just not where it needs to be. I’m thinking it’s close ..3-7 pt game going into the 4th.. then we give up a couple of scores.

-I think Tennessee is a top 6 team, on par with Bama and Georgia. We lose this one.

-I hope we skull drag them. Heupel is an absolutely, classless dick running up that score tonight against probably the worst team in college football.

-The Vols probably didn't play starters the entire 1st half. Kent State didn't even provide scrimmage level competition. That means they will be rusty and we'll jump all over them.

-51-10 Tennessee. We just don’t have the talent they do.

-Simple. One doesn’t perform an onside kick when up 30-0 on a clearly overmatched opponent. If they get you into a fourth down, you kick and move on.
Everything one puts out there: good, bad or indifferent, it always comes back on you.

-Tennessee is ten times better than Tulane! Let’s water the field! This is the SEC!

-I’m was watching Tennessee and I’ve lost respect for Josh. Up by 30 in the first quarter & kick an onside kick and recover it. Then, keep your starters in up 37-0 in the second & score a touchdown on 4th and 1 from way out.

-Unfortunately, I think Tenn wins by multiple TDs and Josh will run up the score. Auburn looks winnable, though. 1-1 before the bye week would be ideal.

-I think Josh will definitely run up the score if he gets the opportunity. Our offense will have to stay on the field or else the defense will wear out.

-Curious why everybody thinks JH will run the score up? Hes still got love for OU and even talks to stoops from time to time. I think he will be on the short list of potential head coaches at OU in 2026.

-I think a lot of people are trying to downplay or right out ignore how good Tennessee actually is. Tennessee may damn well be the best team in the country. It’s like everything clicks. They will maul us up front next weekend and we will take a beat down.

-College Gameday just couldn’t pass up the chance to be here next Saturday. We will get beat on a national stage but rebound against Auburn.

-Tennessee unfortunately performs every facet of the game at an elite level, we’ll fight them for a while but they’ll run away it.

-I saw some of you calling Tennessee classless, but they remind me of Burrow’s LSU Natty team. They’re stone cold killers and they will embarrass whomever and prove that they will not be messed with. There is a swagger about that team that truly frightens me.

-I thought the Houston game was our low point, but then we got in a dog fight with Tulane. Tennessee rolls.

-If the offense can make as much progress in the coming week as they did against Tulane ... Given the Defense, OU has a chance to knock off Tenn.

-We’ve just got too many issues to hang with Tennessee with four quarters. They’ll make a deep playoff run.

-I’ve seen a lot of you trying to downplay Tennessee, don’t do it! They’re a damn good football team and potentially a National Champion this year.
A bunch of them can cry me a river. I’ve seen them do the same thing to lesser opponents. It’s the climate of college football these days.

I like the comparison to Burrow and LSU. I was wondering last week if OU might have sand bagged a bit, I don’t think they have. I think they have some issues that Heupel will absolutely exploit.

I can’t wait to hear them whine we put up 60. I’ve had plenty in my comments on YouTube from the last episode we did, talking about how we’re going to get dragged and they’re so much better than we are. It’s gotten real quiet.

Go damn Vols baby!
 
The running up the score thing....is BS. Every top tier team runs the score up. God forbid you should struggle against a low-level team. Look at the Oklahoma fans complaining about how much they struggled with their team last week. You run the score up to leave no doubt in anyone's mind.
HOWEVER......I was not proud of us going for the inside kick or going for it on 4th down. You can get the message across without humiliating the other team. If it was Florida or Georgia I wouldn't give a s***. But when you're playing somebody who is absolutely the worst college football team in America, you actually do look like a douche doing that. You won't win any new fans doing anything like that. That's probably why they're coach refused to do anything to accelerate the game in the second half. Once we had shown our a$$ in the second quarter with the onside kick and going forward on 4th down, he was like ,"no way. If you are going to run it up like that, run it ALL the way up.......and make America hate you in the process."
 
The Heup threw in his 2nd and 3rd string players for the majority of the game. If KSU can't stop the subs, not Tennessee's fault. As for the on side kick, I must admit that decision disgusted me. Even if raters and champ series people make scores part of their evaluation for including teams make the playoffs. I think that decision was just insulting and poor sportsmanship. I'll probably fee better this evening after eating 6 - 8 shredded chicken tacos and downing two bottles of Goose Island Bourbon County Stout.
Just give your balls a tug and it will be ok

Heupel and Kent Coach were shaking hands and talking friendly after the game. We kicked many field goals along the way. There was nothing wrong about exposing a horrible lineup on a kickoff. We have to work on 4th down situations and this was a great time to do that. Heupel did absolutely nothing wrong. GBO
 
The classless comments are stemmed in fear -- as others have pointed out, they weren't above dropping 70+ on inferior opponents in recent years. They are worried that they are about to clowned on a national stage at home, so they are resorting to "classless" comments to feel like they have some kind of moral high ground.
Exactly. Laying claim to martyr status in anticipation of their coming colosseum exhibition... and doing so a full VI days before the thumbs turn down!

Heupel is one of those rare coaches left who seems to combine elite competivness with a sense of gratitude. At least as long as AD White is here, he isn’t going anywhere; no matter how much money is on the table. We got a great one folks
This is a point that most people ignore. I think Heupel is tied to Danny White.
 
Listen, I don’t care what anyone thinks about running up the score or onside kicks up 30. Style points could be the difference being ranked 12th or 13th at the end of the year “IF” we are a 2 or 3 loss team. Making the playoff is the goal year in and year out until that changes.

Not the Burrow Natty team thing again, that was going around in 2022. Can't we just be content with "a national championship team" without grasping for the greatest team of all time mantle on September 15?

Was that a real Heupel Tweet? If so I am a bit surprised he got baited into answering the way he did. I’d keep that to myself and coaches
 
😴
That guy is so bad and so boring that I couldn’t even make it through his 7 minute segment to find out what he was bitching about.
4:50 is where he puts Jash Heaped X statement about not letting off the gas.
Going to run the score up on Oklahoma if they can.
