First, thanks for the post.
Second, they actually have a reason to believe they'll beat us. Who, without orange colored glasses would think anything else.
If we somehow upset them, it will probably be the upset of the year, nationwide.
Third, I believe we have a chance, albeit, a small one.
I really don't like "moral" victories but if we keep it close this one may qualify. They are that much better overall than us. The D is a beast. It will be a test that our O-line won't forget anytime soon. We'll have to dink and dunk. Quick passes on perimeter and the middle of the D
can open up the run. We have to press the edges with our speed. Get them up on the line and then go over the top to Marquez, Pig, Malone. The tight end could be the
most important weapon we have for this game.
Will Oklahoma win: probably
Can we keep it close: hopefully
That's why they play the game. :rock::clapping:
GO VOLS!

No it isn't, not really; but then again some people argue just to argue. It was an upset, and even the analysts are calling it Butch's first marquee win at UT.

I'll ad this irrational post for the overly optimistic and the rival fans looking for laughs. UT is about a decade removed from it's last true underdog win. They do go in cycles and Butch is a damn inspiring dude. AJ and Sutton alone will leave them wishing we never came to play.

Don't know about the last true underdog win part but I'm IN for the rest.

Sign me up!

AJ/Cam have big games, give Worley time to throw and no big injuries. We'll have a close ball game.

If our Oline wasn't bad I would say we'd have a chance, but our Oline is not good. I just hope Worley doesn't get hurt. Poor guy got hit a lot yesterday.

True Oline needs to improve (a lot) but Worley still has a tendency to sometimes take too long to get the ball out - needs to learn that every once in a while its ok to just throw it away (if watching Oklahoma film does not convince him of this it's hopeless he will ever get it).

I gave great respect for OU, Wilkinson,etc. I hope the OU fans sitting around me have the same respect for UT. I'm too old to go to jail.

Me too. I've actually always kind of like OU for some reason going way back to the late 60's (except our Orange Bowl loss to them). If you see an orange clad fan flying off the upper deck I've either jumped or been thrown off..............

This year won't be pretty. I was pretty disappointed with our performance against Arkansas St. I would give special teams and F rating on that game. The defense is about a C. They better enjoy it this year, because next year with we'll have more experience and they'll really have to work to beat us.

Anything is possible in college football. But not very probable. Get ready for a learning moment for Tennessee on Saturday.

Not sure which one. Friend of mine (OU grad) has the tickets. He just told me "upper deck at the 35 yard line" so I don't have a clue. If I jump I'll try to do a forward 2 and 1/2 with 3 twists. If thrown, probably a belly flop.

For any... and I mean ANY OU fan to pull the "They Cheat" card is a monumental insult to the absolute WORST school in the history of sports when it comes to cheating!!! OU of years past makes Bama look like a bastion of fair play. Good Lord.

I think we are going to see IF the Speed across the DL will effect the big uglies on the OL, we decided to move to fast midsize players to get to the sport quicker. OU is the first test of this.

Unfortunately it would seem that our definition of "upset" has broadened over the years.

If we had last year's ol and Pearson was healthy, I think it could be close. As of now, I think we keep it somewhat respectable (realistically a 14-21 point loss.) But hey anything could happen.

Miami of the 80's/90's is certainly in the Hall of Fame.

OU is very respected with me. Top 10 program of all time. They are better than Texas. Yes in my opinion they are the better program
