Why is Texas an underdog to

  • @Oklahoma St?

    I don't see it, Okie light with a true freshmen QB, gonna put some $$$ on Texas. It is only a 1.5 point spread, but still.

  • Texas offense is putrid. They don't have a QB.

    Okie Lite will be able to put up points. Their OL and RB are studs.

    Okie St has a terrible defense. Who is going to replace Weeden and Blackmon?

    My money is def on Tejas.

    Our defense returns most everyone and might have the best secondary in the country. Our only question is at QB, but Lunt is a stud. We'll win 8-9 games.

    Best secondary in the country? You don't think that's a very bold statement? I don't think that is remotely true

    i like you einstein, and there's no shame in pimping your squad, but you won't even have the best secondary in that game. you certainly aren't going to get ridiculously lucky 2 years in a row w/ that outrageous turnover margin you have last year. and against our defense, you aren't going to score w/ a true freshman, replacing 3/4 of your wr and 3/5 of your ol.

    who the hell takes lines seriously 6 weeks before a game? shrug

    Haha you know your description of Okie Lite's O perfectly matches Texas' right? The Texas O will be greatly improved this year.

  • We may very well have argument for best in the country at running back duo, offensive line and secondary once the season gets going. Our only question (and it's a big one) is with Lunt at QB.

    you won't even have the best rb duo in that game! lol

    and how are you going to have the best ol in the country when you replace 3 starters? c'mon man, you're starting to sound like soonerfan!

    Yep, it's laughable that an offense that was snake bitten with injuries and lost 0 key starters could improve over an offseason.

    Agree, that comment was as great as "the best secondary" one. Quite comical to say the least.

    Your DLinee was/is awful. We ran the ball at will last year and will do so again this year.

    And you lost you're starting left tackle. Wes better learn how to duck, and he better run really fast.

    like soonerfan (ME???)...come on now I take offense to that one...I'm not a homer and a pretty realistic fan...you won't see me saying best this, best that or anything

    I don't go pimping my squad out to anyone on this board

    perhaps you meant other sooner fans, but every fanbase has those idiots (Texas, OSU included)

    we will see...he's good but how can you say best in the country so damn early? you listening to reports from Jim Trabor and Sam Mayes on the Sports Animal a bit too often?

  • Come on green, you have been around here long enough to know that every year about this time...............OSU has the best of everything............remember "Worlds Greatest Offense", "CFB Best Facilities", "Receiver U", "Running Back U". I guess when you have nothing, you are the BEST at everything. Welcome to 2012 and "The Most Overly Optimistic, Under Achieving Team" in CFB. Now we have the fortune of knowing they have not only the BEST SECONDARY, but the BEST RB DUO, AND the BEST OL in the Nation. HOLY COW!!!!!!!!! National Champs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Funny shit I say.

    Same ole pimp, same ole limp for the sheepers. They are world beaters til the lights come on. Now that they were handed last year on a silver platter, it will be worse for a year or two. The only thing that proves out over time........okie light its called HISTORY...........is that you are a pitiful bunch of wannabes...............you have arrived only when others srtive to be you, compare themselves to you, and make you their top target.....WELCOME TO OU FOOTBALL.

    Alabama has the best OL in the country hands down (3 All-americans).

    LSU has a damn good argument for RB corp.

    Secondary is a toss up between several teams right now, but Okie Lite ain't one of them.

    not a personal shot at all. from what i've seen, i think you're a pretty solid poster.

    but i've been on college bbs for 10+ years and interweb soonerfan has a long history of losing multiple all-conference/all-american/high draft pick types and claiming the incoming guys will be better.
