Hardest road game this season?

[MR2-Sooner86]

Like last year I'm wondering what you people may think of as the hardest game on the road this season. I took Texas out because it's kind of a given. I'm wondering, you don't have to answer but I'd like to hear what games you guys are worried about and have concerns with?

Sept 25 -- @ Cincinnati
Yes they lost a whole lot but it's early in the season. Could we still have a few wrinkles we're trying to get smoothed out that could cause us problems?

Oct. 23 – @ Missouri
We've had problems there before if I remember right but nothing too serious.

Nov. 6 -- @ Texas A&M
I heard they've gotten better but I'm not sure if that's fact or just blowing smoke. Either way, we've had some hard games there. Is this year going to be another like that?

Nov 20 – @ Baylor
The team could catch Mexican flu and greatly reduce their performance.

Nov. 27 -- @ Oklahoma State
Besides 2008, and even then it got interesting at times, we haven't run away with it there like we have at home. I know they're rebuilding and lost a whole lot of talent but are they a dangerous threat?

@ Cincinnati or @ Missouri

This thread should have a poll for this...

Yeah...I can't add poles to my threads for some reason.

[oumartin]

definately A&M.

[JLEW1818]

definately A&M.

yep, i don't see how another road game comes close.

[starclassic tama]

how is a&m even a threat in anybody's mind? does anyone remember how bad their defense is?

[LoveDemSooners]

Lol, you're right, their D does suck

[JLEW1818]

our offense was pretty bad on the road for the most part in 2009.

Aggie D should be twice as good as 2009. Which is probably in the 50-60 range.

The Aggie Offense should be really good.

we blew them out in 2008, with the best offense in football history.

2006 2004 2002 all close games.

[oumartin]

OU have never had an easy game at college station. even after the 77-0 beatdown the next year it took Mark Bradley and JW saving the game

[JLEW1818]

well 2008 was easy

never heard this statement before:D :D :D :D

[yermom]

well 2008 was easy

the orange Aggies scare me at home more than the Maroon ones

but 2008 in College Station is the only cakewalk in recent memory in either place

[SoonerStormchaser]

Either Aggie away game is tough...doesn't matter how bad they suck!

[goingoneight]

I'm going to say the hardest road game for OU will be the one they lose a catalyst playmaker for them in. Let's hope this doesn't happen.

[oudivesherpa]

A&M, it's just a tough place to play.

[oudavid1]

Yeah...I can't add poles to my threads for some reason.

me neither

i wish i could


oh and A&M.

[CrimsonJim]

aTm - should have a very good offense with a average defense. Always a tough place to play.

[soonerborn30]

I'd say Cincy, just because it's so early in the year and we may not have the wrinkles ironed out yet.

Conference-wise I'd say it's a toss-up between A&M and OSU. A&M's defense was horrific last year, and I don't think a new DC will be an instant fix. Heck, even Muschamp needed a couple years at * to get that D back to respectability, and I'm pretty sure Aggie's guy is no Muschamp. But they will have the horses to keep up in a track meet for longer than will be comfortable for most Sooner fans. OSU is almost always a tough game regardless of the talent level disparity.

[Okie35]

A&M, they could have a bad defense but the fact their offense is pretty good and its at their place it should be tough. Cincy lost a lot last year so they shouldn't even be in the running but we do struggle in unfamiliar territory. Missouri shouldn't be a problem. I think Baylor will come out tough but get smacked by the strength of our depth after the half.

[Crucifax Autumn]

You guys all seem to be missing the obvious answer.

The toughest road game will be the BCS Championship Game, but we'll still take that one by about 14 or so.
