This team isn't perfect, but dang they are talented and well coached.

Yeah, they haven't had to play hard in the 4th quarter all year. And I'm glad.

There are some areas to improve but this isn't the thread for that stuff.

This is the thread to say, "how about Brian Jackson tonight against TCU?" He looked great. And Sam throwing for over 400!

We're undefeated, still mostly healthy, and it's good to be a Sooner.

In.

We whipped a Top 25 team and even beat the spread. Of course we have a few things to work on, but that will only make us better.

Good game guys!

I don't recall seeing Gresham after he left with what looked like a hurt shoulder, or a stinger possibly, on a punt coverage play; anyone?

Sammy, 4 TD's, no interceptions, over 400 yards.

I'll take that any day of the week.

Jackson's starting to look like he deserves to wear OU's number 2 at CB.

Almost looked like Ontei, slapping that pass down by the endzone there. *sniff*

Looked like he was holding his hand.

To me it looked like it got smashed between helmets.

The fact that Brian Jackson stepped up makes me more excited that the fact Franks wasn't mentioned. Could he be a shutdown corner?

I'm in.

Great job by the Sooners. Got up big, then put it on cruise control. Didn't have to show too much - saving it for Texas.

Had some warts (kick coverage, punting), which will give the coaches plenty of opportunities to coach the boys up this week. However, hard to fault the O line for not being able to block 8 or 9 guys against the run.

My only complaint ..... is against the people who are complaining about the style with which OU beat a top 25 team (who may not lose again this year). This bring to mind the following story from a previous less-politically-correct era:
Back when the Oklahoma Sooners were rolling up points in one-sided games like 67-3, 72-6, etc....the story goes that late one night at the Daily Oklahoman, an intern was working the overnight sports news desk and got a call from Indonesisa. Some OU alum who was a toolpusher for an oil company was calling wanting to know the score in the OU/Kansas State game. The intern replied, "OU won by a score of 36 to 3..." The toolpusher replied, "Jesus is that all they beat em by?...". The intern hung up the phone and looked at an editor, told him the story and said, "Wow!!...How much rice can a Chinaman eat?" The editor wrote about that storied exchange. And now, to this very day, the most rapid Sooner fans are known as "Chinamen".

BOOMER!
