OU 24 Uterus 13. Texas being the heavy favorite and OU with nothing to lose has always turned out well for the Sooners.
If Sark really is the guy that finaly makes Texas not like they have always been, then the spread is probably right.
I think Texas is what they always are...a fricking media darlin hyped up paper tiger.
frick them horns.
I hope and pray your coaches and players are just as dumb as you are.


Don't know much of the history of OU texas, huh?

You really should follow the lead of your fellow aggy who are saying OU is bad. I know it hurts to predict a Horns win, but you gotta get with the program and downplay it as "no big deal" and stuff like that.

Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds?

What happened 5 years ago or 15 years ago doesn't matter.

The Okie o-line & QB situations are a mess.

The Okie defense is quality and will fight like hell. It won't matter.

Texas 39.
OU 13


Do you know how familiar you sound right now?

Another key to the game will be the Red Zone. We had big time red zone issues the last couple of years.

2024 - 27 Red Zone Opportunities
11 Rushing TD
14 Passing TD
1 Field Goal
Average 6.3 points per RZ trip

OU held us to 10 points on 4 trips last year. If they are successful again this year, that will also keep the game much closer. I don't expect to score 6.3 per trip in this game, but an extra point per trip makes it a tie game despite being -3 on turnovers.

If the OU OLine wakes up this game, OU wins IMO.

You obviously never watched Texas play a game either. I watched OU play 4 games and yall suck. It is funny you think you gonna be able to be a passing team on Saturday all of a sudden. Yall dont have the depth on your WR corp to match up with Texas secondary, your run game is okay, you dont have the offensive line, your qbs suck, and Texas WR group is a mismatch for ou. Texas will also win in the trenches on offense.

The ONLY Texas loses this game is if they beat themselves and play their worst football of the season just like last year.

I get all this "its a rivalry throw everything out the window" talk, but lets get real for a second, ou is playing with a freshman and a horrible oline with zero running game.


I couldn't have said it any better myself. I expect a close first quarter, then things will start to open up mid game.

Texas 36
OU 10

Is Oklahoma better this year than last? Probably, right, just slightly?

Is Texas not as good as last year? Probably, by a very small margin, right?

OU Beat UT last year, right?

Logically if OU is slightly better and UT slightly worse and OU won last year OU repeats this year. That's logic. In the world of CFB who the frick knows...in a year where Vandy beats Alabama and gets their first win ever against a top 5 opponent is there any way to predict anything with any confidence?

Texas 42-17. Oklahoma fans ponder being Nebraska on the drive home.

If I am Venables

On defense
I would play a soft 3 - 3 - 5 with a really light box and dare Texas to run while taking away the deep ball.

Then try to force fumbles on the RB which is a weakness.

Sark likes to use hitches and other short passing plays as an alternative to the running game, so this may not work however.

Bend, but don't break. Then try to create havoc inside the red zone with a QB who hasn't thrown as many passes as he usually does..

On offense
I would do the Miss State game plan (also the Vandy plan). Run the damn ball. Eat clock. Limit possessions. Try to convert on 3rd and maybe 4th down. Rinse and repeat.

If OU can force fumbles and win the turnover battle and force FG's while limiting possessions because of a good 3rd Down conversion percentage.. then OU will have a chance to win the game in the 4th.

Maybe I'm stupid, but that's what I would do.

This but add pressure early and often. Quinn might not be 100% entering the game. If I'm OU I want to get hits on him early, and get into his head.

This is an inaccurate premise. Texas is probably worse as a unit with the running backs and defensive line, but the o-line, receivers, linebackers, and secondary have all improved. The secondary remarkably so.

There are more players contributing this year thus far instead of relying on a few bell cows like last season.
