The answer might surprise you

Oklahoma is #2 and Texas is #4

Missouri

Of course conference play is the true test of these teams

OU hasn't played an offense with a pulse yet. I think TX still has a lot to prove as well. Ohio State didn't try to do too much with the lead so that game can be misleading.

we are coming into the meat of the conference schedule so we will see. Missouri's front 7 is solid but if the DBs keep blowing coverage it isn't going to matter

Missouri relies more on their offense, that’s the strength of the team

If we have to rely on the defense to get us a win then we are failing

LSU is giving up 14.6.

Why are you giving up 11 more points vs P4 competition?

Is your Strength of Schedule even under #100?

We have all newcomers on our defense. I’d like an 11:00 am game in Norman this year since they gave you guys an 11:00 am game in Oxford last year. But I’d bet it’s a prime time night game this year. Nothing new.

We currently 6th on SOS. Our 2 power 4 opponents have great qbs that have lit up our secondary with plays. In both of those games, we have given up -5 yds rushing with 8 sacks 17 hurries.

Texas has yet to beat a P4 team so it's easy to rack up stats vs Sam Houston and Utep. Meanwhile the Sooners were beating Michigan and Auburn. See you in a couple weeks whorns. Tic Tok Tick Tok

It was already slated for the morning in the preseason, that’s why they’re called the Nooners.

South Carolina has an absolutely tragic offense, it's one of the worst in the conference.

LOL

So in one thread you say only SEC opponents are important but now we are counting all opponents. Ole Miss alone scored 24
