The run defense has been solid so far but we really haven't played anyone that can actually run the rock. Texas is pass happy and Iowa State is...well, Iowa State.

I have a feeling we won't really know how good our run defense is until we play OU.

yeayyeyayyy should of been a cowboy.. We have played teams that ran on other teams and not on us. I chose to take that as what it is. Not whine that somehow those teams were just not ready to run when "we" played them. Please note in the B12 compared to all other b12 teams playing each other we are no. 1 in run (and not because every one only passes). Dang good sounding to me expecially after the last couple years. Bill Young has come home and taught us some run stopping and defense stopping techniques and attitude. hope that cowboy stays around a long time.

Actually, Iowa State, Texas A&M, and Texas all fair better on the ground than does OU.

Hey, trust me, I want to see us get it done. No whining here, I just know that in the past OU ran the ball effectively against us even if they were pass happy.

No, we didn't have Bill Young's defense implemented at those times and I am very optimistic about it now.

I hope that after Nov. 28th comes I can say I was very, very wrong. It will be the best crow I have ever tasted.

Yup....OU stats are not that great on the ground..some of you must be reading too many slanted articles on the Sooners. What many do not consider is that we have played more of and some of the best offensive teams in the nation. Our biggest challenge will be the Sooner defense not the offense. Our pass defense has improved dramatically... we played Houston, Tech, and Texas. All top rated offenses. We shall see how OU fares against Tech. They also have not come up against a better running / passing attack as OSU. Lets not get ahead of ourselves yet though and overlook the Buffaloes. I say slaugher them in the 1st. half and polish up your playing and let our subs take over and get experience in the second half and rest up our 1st. string...although keep Hunter in to get more reps and perhaps Toston long enought to get his 1000 yards...Toston deserves all of the accolades he can get for his play this year. We need a comfortable lead but not the classless routs that Sooners like to do every chance they get.

I hope Toston can get to the 1000 yard mark. What an accomplishment for him and our offensive line.

GO POKES BEAT COLORADO !!!!!

I have been a fan of the cowboys since 1969. I have been there for highs and lows, much more lows,but have always stayed with the cowboys every game they played. The 2009 cowboys are deserving to be remembered as one of the most complete team in cowboy history. Lets all give all that we have to support the cowboys in their final three games. OSU COWBOY fan 4=ever

OU doesn't have much of run game. They have to throw which is worse for OSU given their defense. OSU has two RB's better than OU.
