Final prediction:
UT 41 Oklahoma 20
I want to know where this Vol fan will be sitting so I can get a good picture of the shock on his face with the scoreboard in the background.

The person saying the Big 12 was superior in 2000-2010 is ridiculous. How many different SEC teams won titles that decade? I can remember a couple for Florida and LSU and one or two for Bama.
Now, I would argue that the Big 12 had a strong claim for best in 2000 and 2001 when Nebraska was still Nebraska, KSU was at their peak, OU was back, and Texas was surging but that was a bit of anomaly as it was a period where the conference power was transitioning from the north to the south.
There is no doubt that the Big 12 of recent is not where it was in that era - not even close - but having top 10 SOS is not a foreign concept to OU.
Honestly, the difference between schedule strength of an SEC and old Big 12 depended a lot on what you OOC schedule looked like and what your conference schedule looks like.

Exactly. I want to hear exactly how and why Oklahoma could/will beat us.
If I had to make a pick, I would pick Oklahoma, but it is more of a feeling than anything. I don't know that much about them or what Tennessee will bring back.
I am curious how they see the game and why. I am thinking they don't know a lot about Tennessee, so they aren't sure how to compare the teams. Just a guess, though, and I can't blame them for that, either.

Yes. Passive aggressive retort valuable tool to combat mindless bluster.

Keep hoping and praying. It's not a good match up for you and you know it.
