Our no offense still beat more ranked teams than you guys. Come back at us when you guys have legitimate schedule. As of right now, our SoS is #6 compared to your lightweight #51 SoS.

O/U on the game would need to be set at about 29.5.

I think Tech should be rated where they are. Do I think they'd have more than one loss if they played OU's schedule, yes. But they didn't, they have one loss and they will likely be the B12 champs. If the two played, it would be another ugly game where everyone expects Tech to drill OU, and then somehow, you look at the final score and can't figure out how OU won by 2.

OU, Ole Miss, UGA, A&M, Bama all skull frick TT..

Texas, Vandy and maybe even Tenn probably beat TT.

Hell fire, they lost to Ariz St! A team that lost to Miss State.

Y'all keep going back to that every time a non SEC team is talked about yet mighty BAMA got wrecked by the team in 15th place in the ACC


It’s just you all don’t understand how much of a grind being in the SEC… You know if you all would actually be in the SEC everyone would be saying how you haven’t played the actual good teams in the SEC and that they gifted you a schedule lol. If you can’t tell what I’m saying is that the SEC is a bunch of hype since even when your in it you haven’t played the “good” teams unless of course you loose then even the “easy” teams are tough

Oklahoma isn't blowing anyone out. We have problems scoring.

Thankfully our defense is the best in the country, and our special teams are also very good.

Texass Tech has not faced a defense anywhere close to the level of ours.

It would be a low scoring game.

You think Tech could go on the road and beat South Carolina, Tennessee and Alabama?

OK lost to a TX team who couldn't even beat a team that can hardly win a game.


OK lost to a TX team that lost by 7 on the road to the #1 team in the nation. Works both ways.

Apparently there are a bunch of coaches and voters who makeup these polls that think TT is a better team

The Texas Tech QB throws many many floaters. You shouldn't have scored 23 against Alabama but you did.

Texas Tech will get a bye if they win the Big 12.


Conference champs do not get auto-byes this year. Seeding is based on ranking. 12th seed theoretically could be a conference champ.

Tech is only were they are because they don’t have Texas and OU putting them in their place on a yearly basis anymore

Part of the reason OU doesn’t have an “offense”, is because 6 of their opponents this season are in the top 30 in total defense.

That tends to skew the offensive numbers a bit.

It doesn’t help our QB has had a broken hand for half the season.

I would favor Tech over OU. Tech has a decent D, more than good enough to shut down OUs anemic offense. Techs offense is good enough to score on the OU defense. Would not be a high scoring game but give me Tech
well your a known OU hater and have picked against OU 3 weeks in a row lol…. So we figured your take already . Btw how’s that working out for you ?

Fake news, I did not pick Mizzou, I did say they had a chance at pulling the upset in a low scoring game.
