OU/ISU & Week 10 Prediction Thread

Image via Tulsa World

Another big slate of games and though it has clearly lost some of its luster from a national perspective, none bigger (for us) than the one going down in Big D tomorrow. I don’t even want to entertain the idea of what losing this game would mean, so we’ll just power through knowing that type of a result would set of an absolute firestorm.

I’ll throw out some suggestions, feel free to ignore them if you’d like, then you all can have at it in the comments section.

Suggested Predictions:

1. True or false – Someone other than Sterling Shepard will lead the team in receiving yards
2. Over/under – 2.5 passing TDs & INTs for Trevor Knight
3. Over/under – 99.5 yards rushing for Samaje Perine
4. Keith Ford will have ______ number of carries.
5. True or false – OU will rush for over 200 yards as a team.
6. True or false – Michael Hunnicutt will not miss a kick (be it field goal or extra point).
7. Over/under – 1.5 sacks for Eric Striker.
8. ______ will lead the team in tackles
9. Your OU/ISU final score is….
10. TCU or WVU, who ya got on Saturday?
11. Will there be three SEC teams again in the selection committee’s Top 4 this week?
12. Over/under 82.5 points for Baylor this week against Kansas as the Bears will not stand for losing their rep — and the only thing they can really hang their hats on — as the best offensive team in the Big 12.

As always, feel free to add whatever other predictions you have for the weekend in the comments below.

  • SoonerPhins says:

    I think OU will be pretty vanilla this game. I expect OU to just ground and pound through this game and save any tricks or treats for Baylor.

    • Sooner_Ace says:

      We have been hearing the “saving” line for too long, we can shock Baylor by playing up to potential 🙂

  • Sooner_Ace says:

    Ok, I’ll play, how about how many 3 and outs does OUr D force?

  • ellisbr says:

    1. True. Quick has a big game this week
    2. TK has 2 TD passes and we score 4 more rushing TDs
    3. Over. We find our identity and run the ball and wear down ISU D
    4. 12 carries, and out rush Ross
    5. True. we’ll get close to 300
    6. True
    7. Over. M. Stoops has our D attacking this week
    8. Evans
    9. 49 – 10

    13. Texas Sucks!

  • Doobie74OU says:

    1.) False – I think a couple other receivers will play well but Shepard gets loose deep and leads OU
    2.)Over – 3 TDs 1 Int
    3.)Under – With Ford back I think all 3 RBs get carries and make it hard for any to get 100 yds
    4.) 10 carries
    5.) True – I say close to 300 yds
    6.)True – Last week was a fluke and Moneycutt returns big
    7.)Over – 2 sacks
    8.)Evans – 12 Tackles
    9.)45 – 13 OU wins
    10.) Going out on a bit of a Limb and say WVU they will do better than OU at the short passing game and keeps chains moving and they will not utilize the “mush rush” that JY loves so much ha ha LOL!
    11.)No Not with #3 and #4 playing this week
    12.)Under – think they will be in the 50’s

  • j l says:

    1. False. LOL
    2. 2 td 1 int
    3. under, about 60
    4. Ford will have 12 carries, 85 yards
    5. Over, we had over 400 rushing on them last year
    6. true.
    7. under, 1 sack
    8 Striker, 8 tackles
    9. 42-14 sooners
    10. TCU 52-45
    11. No, ole miss/auburn loser drops from top 4, TCU or oregon takes their place
    12. well under. Kansas defense is not that bad. Ben heeney is a boss. Baylor will score 55

    Arkansas puts a scare in miss state, but falls short again.

  • red clay says:

    1. snowball’s chance
    2. Over
    3. Over
    4. 15
    5. True
    6. True
    7. Under (prolly another soft defense)
    8. Geneo
    9. OU 42 – ISU 31
    10. TCU
    11. They may throw out the process and just declare the SEC
    champ as automatic NC. You peasants don’t matter. Now, shoo.
    12. Over. Angry Bears gorge on roasted Jayhawk jalapeno poppers.
    In spite of another soft defensive game plan OUr D scores a TD on ISU. Most likely a Zack pick 6.

  • Stephen Dale says:

    1.) NO ; 2.) Under ; 3.)under ; 4.) 10 ; 5.) True ; 6.) False ; 7.) under ; 8.) evans ; 9.) 34-33 ISU ; 10.) TCU ; 11.) Yes ; 12.) Under ; 13.) Like KSU plus the pts against the Okie Light Pukes, in fact, I hope KSU ‘buttstomps’ the Aggies into the turf.

  • tfb_fortyseven says:

    1) False – Were you really considering that someone other than Sterling would lead the receiving yards column?
    2) Under – I believe the coaches will attempt to play it safe this game, and try to roll back in to Norman fully healthy not showing Baylor anything extra with this game. What better way to do that than to run the ball?
    3) True
    4) 10
    5) True
    6) True
    7) Over
    8) Alexander
    9) 38 – 17
    10) WVU (ever so hopeful)
    11) Yes – Hoping Auburn will win due to Ole Miss having an easier schedule to finish the year; Alabama has a bye week, and Miss State is at Arkansas.
    12) Under – Baylor will be using the KU game as a scrimmage/final prep for OU, not as a beatdown due to anger.
