Heard this on the radio yesterday

Tennessee has not won a road game against the top 15 team since 2006 at Georgia

Under Heupel they average 22 points less per game on the road

Knowing this on top of it being a freshmans first true road game at night in front of 90,000 people facing the best defense he will face all year, I don’t know how people can predict a Tenn blowout

41-31 OU. Bookmark

From your lips to God's ear, but I don't see it. OU is suspect and Tennessee is going to boat race them.

Nah, they’re gonna see better… especially if they get to the playoffs.

I also heard a rumor that UTK has never had a Heisman trophy winner.

Maybe someone can check to confirm.

No, beat LSU on the road 40-13, but they sucked as usual.

I heard a rumor. LSU had to have the refs help them to beat South Carolina

My bad, I meant South Carolina.

That was UGA that needed help with UK.

So many teams manhandle LSU, it is hard to keep them straight.

So what you're saying is that this team will play to the average of recent Tennessee teams. As we've been telling y'all since the Citrus Bowl, this is not the same team, it's special. Some folks just don't believe that a team can improve. Oklahoma should be proud of homeboy Josh since he took over cubic zirconia and crafted a big diamond. But you bet you.

I know we're excited about our D and all, but let's see OU do something vs a big-time offense (like tenner) b4 we give ANY credit to these guys.

OU's D will have:

1. The home field
2. Night game
3. One of the best offenses in the country coming in
4. Heisman hopeful QB coming in
5. First SEC game in OU history
6. Everyone picking against OU

If our D lays an egg with ALL of those motivating factors, well....

It will be an interesting one for sure.

OU has an older, experienced Defense on all 3 levels against a young QB playing in his first big road game.

BV knows this offense well, so I think he’ll have some things cooked up for Tenn.

OU has the linebackers & Dline to not be forced to stack the box to stop the run and an experienced secondary that is constantly looking for their next INT.

Not sure if OU will pull it off…but I think they have a real shot.

IF OU’s OLine can give Arnold time to make a few reads, I think he could have some success against Tenn’s secondary, which is their weak link on D.

I wouldn’t say everybody is picking against them.

I’ve heard many people on podcast take OU to cover or win outright

Dusty and Gabe both picked OU

Two Sooners who run a fund for OU, Strengthening Oklahoma, a new avenue for fans to give financial support? They are picking OU?
