      I want OU to score 100 points, but I also want the starters to rest up for next week while we get a glimpse at the future with Kendall, Mykel Jones and the defensive freshmen.

      • ouwooferman says:

        Agree. But unless we are up 60 at half, historically speaking, Stoops keeps the starters in till deep into the 4th qrt.

    No offense Jordan, but I did this last week for the first time in a long time and…. well…. the result was not what I hoped. I think I shall steer clear of giving my predictions from here on out. It’s only crazy if it doesn’t work, right??

    • ouwooferman says:

      Funny, this is the first time ever to do this. I probably wont do it again. I would rather be picking the outcome of big 12 teams vs.???

  • Mason says:

    I am sadly not going to be able to go to/watch the game this Saturday because my friend thought it’d be a great idea to get married on a Saturday night. I guess it’s better than missing next Saturday. Safe to say I will have my headphones with me. Anyways.

    1. Over. Most from later in the game
    2. 24/30 310 yards 3TD 0 Int
    3. Over
    4. Perine
    5. Jordan Thomas & Michiah Quick. We’ve already seen Cobb and Austin.
    6. Yes.
    7. I’m going to say under. I don’t think ULM will throw JT’s way. Unless they do and/or we force a lot of fumbles, I don’t think we will see many TOs
    8. Under.
    9. Abdul Adams, Cobb, Kelly, Mykel Jones, Austin Kendall
    10. True. Think Mixon may return a KO
    11. 52-7 OU
    12. True

  • cush creekmont says:

    This opponent and last week’s performance have left me lacking in prediction enthusiasm.
    But –

    1) Under
    2) 21 of 29; 310 yds, 3TD, 0 Int – BUT 6 “held too long.”
    3) Over
    4) Andrews
    5) Thomas & Cobb
    6) Yes
    7) Under
    8) Under
    9) Cobb
    10) True / False (unless we BLOCK a punt)
    11) A LOT to not many – Numbers don’t matter this week
    12) True – Because Meyer plays bland to NOT show OU anything.

  • L'Carpetron Dookmarriot says:

    OU will barely win this game. Our talent isn’t that good and our coaches have taken several steps back. I just don’t understand why everyone can’t see this. I’ve been telling you all this for years. It’s about time you see that I’m right!

    Respectfully and negatively yours,
    Stephen Dale.

    • cush creekmont says:

      You left out the part about the entire SS17 class decommitting, the south end zone seats falling apart, the jumbo tron sparking out, and Bob Stoops getting lost on his way to the stadium – Just want to make sure you’ve got your full SD going.

      Thank you Stephen. Your valuable input from the deep dark depths of hell always brightens my day!

    4) Joe Mixon
    5) Thomas & Quick

    7) 2 turnovers
    8) Under
    9) Kendall , Adams , Jones , Cobb , Jackson , Kelly , Motley , Sylvie

    5. The two CBs on the field for OU’s first defensive snap will be: Thomas & Cobb.
    6. Yes. Obo and Walker will get sacks and then I say Jackson or Kelly gets another one.
    7. Under. I’ll say 2 Turnoves.
    8. Under. I think the defense will be angry and hungry to look better than last week.
    9. Name the true freshman that will get snaps vs. ULM: Mykel Jones, Caleb Kelly, Mark Jackson, Parrish Cobb, Abdul Adams.
    10. True: Going with a Mixon KR TD.

  • onlyoneOU26 says:

    What I would like to see: Mixon and Perine at least 20 touches APIECE. Baker play within the offense. WR making plays after the catch (to me this is huge in helping Baker play within the offense, if he sees big plays off the short throws he will be more likely to take what’s given and not make the big play on his own). Defense get off the field on 3rd down. Otherwise like the D. Attempt another long FG (show the kid you believe in him)!
