This dude does not speak for anyone other than himself. The SEC has clearly been the best conference in football for some time. Just look at the different teams that have won a NC since OU won in 2000. In the games that mattered (NC games and CFP games) OU has been outclassed by the SEC. I’m sure other OU fans are going to hate on what I’m saying, but it’s true. The 2004 Sugar Bowl against LSU was a good game, but being competitive since then has been rough, not counting the Rose Bowl game against Georgia.
Most of us aren’t delusional and again why we think hiring Venables is going to make us better. I’ve said it so many times here that to play in the SEC, you MUST be physical and attack at the line of scrimmage. Whether you want to believe it or not, OU became less physical and more run and shoot air raid under Riley. Hopefully, Brent can bring us back to the defense OU was known for in the past. Big, physical linemen on both sides of the ball is a must and he’s already making headway in that department. We want nothing more than to shake off the stigma of the Little 12 and be in this conference. To be the man, you gotta beat the man. We’ll find out if we can. I know most OU fans are looking forward to it, regardless of how tough it will be

The fact that this thread already has 8 pages in 5 days, during the off season....should tell you that OU brings a lot of interest to the table. You either like them, hate them, or love them. And all of the above will bring even more interest to the SEC. Not to mention, Texas. Not sure if ya'll realize how similar/culturally we all are. Most of you will grow to hate Texas even more than you hate OU, which will make it even more entertaining. Those guys are a proud bunch with oil money and orange vests with fringe and tassles. But they do have hot women.

There have been plenty of "can't miss head coaches" that have....missed.
First, we could make a list of coaches who turned out great as well. Venables is basically no different than Kirby Smart as far as his background.
And the fact of the matter is that Venables is going to a better program that is in better shape than any of the coaches on your list of busts.
Another advantage is like Smart and Georia, Venables knows OU really well and won't have to adjust to much.
I'd say he is a safe bet to keep OU at the same level anyway. Whether he can make that last leap like Smart did is a bigger question.

Chokelahoma is 6-8 vs SEC teams in the last decade. This is after winning the Big 12 most of those years. I am looking forward to them joining the SEC. It should make for some pretty interesting football games. It will be interesting to see how they develop over the next couple of years before they join.

Huh I picked exactly the time frame we was talking about the Big 12 vs Sec …. I didn’t change any time frame you just did . Yes in the 90 we had several losing season under one coach . Let’s go back to the 80s OU 70s OU 50s for sure OU. You might of won two decades in 60 years so try and pick those lol. Anyway you look at it OU aid tight out there with Bama to leading in any category. We don’t claim NC we didn’t win like Bama does . We claimed unanimous NCs We finshied undefeated countless times that we didn’t win a NC for …. Bama claims them all of them even though most weren’t recognized by major pollsters . There is a reason why the AP considered OU number one because OU is the most consistent football team ever … those are facts so please don’t try and do what all you Bama fans just did and get owned again.
Poor child, remember Alabama was docked 28 victories since 1990
But since you asked
1950-1959
OU- 93
Alabama- 50
1960- 1969
Alabama- 90
OU-62
1970-1979
Alabama-103
OU- 102
1980-1989
OU- 91
Alabama- 85
1990-1999
Alabama- 83
OU- 61
2000-2009
OU- 110
Alabama- 68
2010=2019
Alabama- 124
OU- 109
2020-2021
Alabama= 26
OU- 20
So since 1950
OU won the 50's, 80's, and the 2000's
Alabama won the 60's, 70's, 90's, 2010's, and 2020's
But all time
Alabama 942
OU 928
quote:
We claimed unanimous NCs
1974- OU AP poll , USCw UPI poll-
Let us look at the OU 1956 NC's schedule shall we
North Carolina (2-7-1) 36-0
Kansas State (3-7) 66-0
(Dallas) Texas (1-9) 45-0
at Kansas (3-6-1) 34-12
at Notre Dame (2-8) 40-0
at Colorado (8-2-1) 27-19 #22
at Iowa State (2-8) 44-0
Missouri (4-5-1) 67-14
Nebraska (4-6) 54-6
at Oklahoma State (3-5-2) 53-0
32-63-5 overall
one winning team the entire year,
average record
wins 3.2 losses 6.3 ties .5
You really do not want to go down the road comparing OU to Alabama. Any wins totals you say add 7 in the 90's and 21 in the 00's to get an accurate picture on the field.
Alabama plays in the conference that has 6 of the top 13 teams all-time in wins (Bama, Tennessee, Florida, Auburn Georgia and LSU), OU has 3 ( OU, Texas and Nebraska- who left)
LINK
Every Alabama NC winning team played in a bowl game
1956 and 1974 OU did not play in a bowl
Even if we just count poll titles, Alabama has almost double the number of OU (13- 7)
There is more, records against the top 15 schools in all time wins (Alabama- but then Alabama plays the top 15 teams more)
These are the facts, and there is more. You might not want to try this tactic for OU again against Alabama
But we are laughing at yOU.

If and when (really when) OU rejoins the defense club, they will be a much better team. I honestly can not think of a NC winner that was a high power offense and very little defense.
IMO OU is a very good bring to the SEC

again this just further proves my point. If your not cheating you dont get knocked games...... Look at the 50s and 2000 we almost doubled your win totals DOUBLED........... thats the reason why any decade we are the most consistent team ........... in 1970s OU was not allowed to play for 2 national titles even though we didnt lose a game in 3 years...
The Oklahoma Sooners football program is a college football team that represents the University of Oklahoma (variously "Oklahoma" or "OU"). The team is a member of the Big 12 Conference, which is in Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The program began in 1895 and is one of the most successful programs of the modern era, with the most wins (606) and the highest winning percentage (.762) since 1945.[3][4]

You added OU's record against Mizzou and Texas AM in that
Honesty is the best policy
Against the SEC 10 from 1933-
OU is 14-9
Against the new members from 1992 (Arkansas and TexasAM)
OU is 1-1
so OU is 15-10 against the SEC.....congrats
That will change the first year OU is in the conference.

I'm just pissed at them for not going SEC the first time around and now they come hat in hand, dragging the filthy confernce killers with them.

IMO OU is a very good bring to the SEC
To go along with this when we played in playoffs and titles there was a month gap between games. This has always favored defenses and their ability to slow down offenses. Thats one reason we struggled in those games.
Brent has coached under 3 title winning coaches and will change the culture back to defensive. I can’t wait to see the transition starting this year. By the time we get to SEC we’ll be loaded up on both LOS. Brent said within the past day he turned down HC jobs and wanted the OU job, but never expected it ti come open. He is all in and this is his dream job. He will coach OU until he retires and knows even with past success this will be his lasting legacy.
His smile every time someone films him is really genuine. He has already started the changes and has many more to go.
I have always enjoyed watching OU play but this last year every game was hard to watch. Every game except our bowl game coached by Bob. I’m so thankful for Bob he saved our bacon and bridged the gap.
Can’t wait for this season and the year we start SEC play.

Based on this analysis we can expect you to lose 4 games on average per year. The real question is are the OU faithful willing to put up with averaging 8 wins? Or do you all start calling for his head and throw the program into more coaching change?
Posted on 2/25/22 at 11:44 pm to MOJO_ERASER
Mojo, you really give us good, rational OU fans a bad name. Just stop with your posts. Nothing you say can ever justify OU being on top of Alabama in anything football related. And do not include Texas A&M, Missouri, Arkansas in the overall record for OU against the SEC, except for one win and one loss. You really are grasping for air here. Next time you post something, be sure to log off first.

You know, I studied the wins by the decades. I know he showed them to show Bama's record is better. But not by as much as I thought it would be. And the 70's was a great decade for both programs I see. I don't think any other team in the country can match up to it any better than OU did, actually.
