115 combined points may be entertaining, but it doesn't mean it's good football.

OU is really good on offense but really bad on defense. They might score mid 30's to 40 on Bama or Clemson, but they would give up 60+.

Was it even entertaining? I don't mind a game where a bunch of points are scored, but guys running through arm tackles for 75 yard gains every other play gets a little frustrating.
Just watch some of the scoring plays, lots of guys not giving a 100% effort.

This is college football and it gets worse every year. Seeing shite tackles and shite attitudes pisses me off. There are good kids out there, but a majority couldn't give two shits if they are "having a bad day".

I should clarify: entertaining to some. Not me. Breakout plays are fun when a good defense gets beat. Not every possession.

Big 12 brand of football is established. What is there to discuss.

And what is Aggie football? Losing 5 games a year for eternity? Lmao at that loser program.

It is like watching a Powder Puff HS game... if you have ever seen one where the two female QB’s can throw...

Counterpoint - it's not even entertaining

It's a hell of a lot of fun when it isn't your team that's involved.

So, you’d rather see Bama win, say....49-3. I don’t mind winning, but it’s not exciting and all that entertaining.

1) Bad defensive play is not enoyable to watch. Even if you are a casually follow-the-ball fan, if you ever become a bigger fan or see a real defense you're fricked
2) All those touchdowns are exciting only in the context of normal football where touchdowns are scarce. If this is the norm, it ceases to be exciting. Just as not every shot made in basketball is exciting. In some ways worse because they actually don't score as often in basketball as in a game like this, they just get a lot more possessions. There is no tension release when you know there is no real chance of being stopped

Oklahoma is the #1 offense in the nation. WVU is pretty close.
OU is ranked 6th, and WVU, what, 13th?
OU has beaten a top 25 Army, top 25 Iowa State, top 25 WVU, and has 1 loss, to a top 25 Texas.
They could beat anyone except Bama, Clemson, and maybe Georgia.
And would the OP shut up please. Your team hasn't done shite in 20 years.

I enjoy watch former Big 12 teams get pummeled in the SEC much more than watch big 12 games. Go back to your country. #12strong. Contraction is the only solution.

Some of you all can trick off. Did anyone watch the Chiefs-Rams game?
Wasn't it Mahomes that was killing it this season in the NFL (a Big 12 QB)?
Where was defense in that game?

A&M can frick off, until you win something relevant, your lucky if you place 3rd in your own division.

Did you forget that Defense wins championships! like it or not the Big 12 is a joke of a conference with no or little defense! Also why did you not see why Jimbo was brought in at A&M? So he could fix what A&M have had with soft defense that was left over from the Big 12!

Correct.
If everything is a big play, nothing is a big play.
