The game last year was actually closer than the score indicated, and that was with Justin Worley at QB. He threw 2 interceptions in the end zone as we were easily driving down the field.
It was a 1 score game in the 3rd when Keith Ford fumbled and we recovered. They reviewed it and said the play stands as called...OU keeps the ball. Next play they score.
We are a different offense with Dobbs and much, much more experienced. Keep in mind that was the 2 game and first road game for all of our key freshman.
We return pretty much everyone and upgrade talent and depth at key spots.
Oklahoma lost some key OL and their best defensive player, Jordan Phillips. He killed us last year.
Not sure who will win, but it will be a 1 score game late in the 4th.

I think Tennessee has a chance to pull a 2006 Cal game and just blast OU out of the stadium.
Not because OU won't be OK on offense, but because I think they will continue to take steps back on defense.
They aren't as aggressive or effective as they have been in the past decade, their defensive coaches haven't been very sharp, and I think if UT comes out and scores quickly, they can put OU on their heels, which is exactly where you can't be, with a new offense, on the road, at night.
If UT prevents the big play, this will be a blow out. And I don't think it means that UT is back, more than it means OU is fading.
Just my 2 cents.
