Harris doesn't suck, yea he missed on some easy passes, but he did make some very good throws.

OU has had success sure, but they have no national titles to show for it. You still have to be able to run and stop the run to win it all. They run better than they used to but spread teams sacrifice physicality to play that style.

OU had dominant runs throughout the entire BCS era. Nice try though. You really are ignorant, and I feel sorry for you.

You do realize there is more to spread offenses than just passing right? A DB turned QB, Nick Marshall had success against your D.

In terms of QB development and experience he is really more like a sophomore, which explains a lot of things, including how much he has improved since the first ballgame.
Well Harris really is a sophomore.

I agree to an extent. OU losing to FL in 08 is a prime example of this. Once OU made it to the redzone and couldn't effectively spread the field FL was able to hold them down. Since then Bob has tried to balance things a bit more.

I believe we've won a major bowl game more recently than you have.

When a good spread team meets a good physical run team it usually does not go well for the spread team. See Oregon. I don't think a spread team can win the four team playoff.
When you beat Alabama it had a lot to do with Bama trying to be cute and play like you do instead of getting the ball to Henry. He was killing you and only got 12 touches. Last night he gets 38.

The spread teams that have kicked your arse twice in a row in the Sugar Bowl sure looked plenty physical to me.

See the last two sugar bowls. How'd that work out?

A spread team kicked your arse out of the playoffs and won the national title last year.

OSU is not a true spread team, they had a physical run game. As I said earlier Alabama tried to play your game and throw the ball instead of feeding it to Derrick Henry. You had no answer for him and he only got 12 touches.

Bama fans don't know shite about what a "spread offense is". You can attach a "physical run game" to a spread offense quite easily. It's still a spread offense. OSU is a spread offense whether you like it or not.
I don't want to hear about Henry in your sugar bowl outing. You were throwing the ball because you got 31 hung on you in a single half and you had no answer for Knight. That's why Henry only got "12 touches".
We could say the same about Trevor Knight's running ability. He got ZERO touches, and you wouldn't have had an answer for him. He's a devastating running QB more than he ever was a passer.

You sound really mad for some reason.

Sure you won a game...and you hang your hat on it but in reality you got nothing much to show for it. Stoops needs to win your league or hoist that trophy at the end and he hasn't gotten it done. The Mark Richt of Oklahoma.
Only one team gets to say they are the best at the end of the year and we still have a shot. You might,maybe.. Step up your game.
As for Henry he was killing you. Had he gotten 20 plus touches even with your big lead you might have lost anyway.
Edit..he had 161 yards rushing and receiving on NINE touches. NINE.

I will agree with you on all of this. BUT.....Bob has won far more than Richt ever has or ever will so that's a terrible and silly comparison. Richt isn't even in Bob's galaxy. Bob is the Steve Spurrier of Oklahoma is what he is.

So what? We didn't exactly gameplan for Henry. He wasn't even your starting RB. Yeldon was. Might, Maybe, Coulda, woulda, shoulda....

Goes back to my point. In truth I am not belittling the win it was well earned. I am talking about tactics.
Henry with 20-25 carries in that game would have destroyed you and there is little doubt of it. But we played your game
instead and let your pass rushers come into play.
A team with a strong running game will beat a spread team most of the time. One that runs and stops the run.

You didn't "play our game". You had a two-time national champion, Heisman trophy runner up, and Maxwell award winner playing QB and a Belitnikoff trophy award winner playing WR. You played your game and it simply wasn't enough.
You keep saying a "team with a strong running game" will beat a spread team most of the time like spread teams don't have "strong running games". Tennessee is a spread team. tOSU is a spread team. We are a spread team. WVU is a spread team that runs power I. Baylor is a spread team. All have strong running games.
Your idea of a "spread team" are those weaksauce former BIG XII teams in your league that play that 7 on 7 mickey mouse bullshite and feature no running game whatsoever. That's exactly what those teams are. Mickey mouse 7 on 7 bullshite spread teams that can't run the ball.
