Of course, OU beat KU on its home field while impressively holding KU to one late TD, while KU scored over 30 in its road game loss in Boulder. Colorado can pull off upsets at its home in the thin air of Boulder. OU did beat a Kansas team that lost at Colorado.

If Bradford had played the whole OU-UT game the Sooners would have beaten UT by 15. If Bradford and TE Jermaine Gresham had both stayed healthy the Sooners would probably have been the clear number one team in the nation, since it would have beaten BYU, Miami and UT by at least 60 combined rather than losing to the three by a total of 5 points away from home. Remember OU had red zone problems that would have gone away with Gresham in the line-up. Could you imagine the results if last years Sooner offense had combined with this years defense? Wow!

I have a question. If OSU beats Texas, does the chance of beating OU go up? Say a 25 -17 win over UT, what is the chance of beating OU then? Also since OU has one of the longest home winning steaks going, and we all know streaks always end, who win end the home winning streak? Interesting percentages. I have a question.

OU will be favored in every game they play the rest of this season. And in the three games played in Norman--OU will be a solid to prohibitive favorite in each. The pattern for OU in the Stoops Era post Texas game is always to go on a run through the back two-thirds of the conference schedule.Nebraska is struggling mightily at QB right now and a win in Lincoln looks to be attainable. Leach and those crazies in Lubbock are impossible to figure out---but our defense has a solid concept of what Leach does. The game in Lubbock is probably the scariest of our closing games. Although the three way tie is enticing---O State will probably come to Norman with the same 8-3 record the Sooners will have. Being Dez-less is okay when you play the likes of Rice, Grambling, Texas A&M, Missouri and Baylor, but not against the likes of the Texas and OU defenses, plus the game at Ames is a classic trap game for the Pokes the week after Texas.

Because they looked good in beating a team that just got done losing to Colorado? Seriously if OSU beats UT and loses in Norman they would still go because I really do not see OU winnning out. Take off the crimson glasses. Why is everyone assuming that OU will win out? Because they looked good in beating a team that just got done losing to Colorado?
