Texas Stinks

Texas has one player to fear, the Olympic track guy who returns kicks and runs the hundred in something like 7.7. Poorly as OU covers kicks, this guy could run two or three back all the way.

The rest of this team is like the ones that were lucky to win half their games the last couple of years.

The quarterback is average on his best day. He doesn't run much and throws softballs.

The one receiver, Shipley, is all right.

The defense is overrated mush. It is what, last in the world against the rush?

This should be its third straight loss, as OSU nearly won with its reserve freshman quarterback.

Mack looks 105 years old.

His coordinators are have big mouths and no track records.

OU's defense under Mike appears meaner. Venables is about to be run out of Clemson. OU's run game is average. The receivers are getting better. Don't kick the ball to the Olympic guy.

Unless somebody fumbles the ball into its own end zone and fails to recover, OU wins this one easy as you please.

Pick, Why would you say Venables is about to be run out of Clemson? Are they not 5-1?

Nice try Pick: Texas averages nearly 50 points a game. OU's offense has only had one good game, and that was for 3 quarters against Tech, and now the Sooners have lost another lineman to a torn ACL. I hope that I am wrong, but the coach formerly known as Big Game Bob is in trouble heading to Big D.

The Clemson defense gives up about 40 per game.

Texas was lucky to beat Oklahoma State's second team.

"Mack looks 105 years old." LOL. So did my first wife when she was upset.
