I basically came up with THREE possibilities: Missou,aTm,osu.

Here is my breakdown of those three:


issou(4-0)
Beat Illinois(2-2) 28-13
McNeese State ((2-2) 50-6
San Diege State (3-1) 27-24
Miami,Oh (3-2) 51-13

No marquee wins

aTm (3-1)
Beat Stephen F Austin (3-1) 49-7
Louisiana Tech (1-4) 48-16
FIU (0-4) 27-20
lost to oSu (4-0) 38-35

No marquee wins

oSu (4-0)

beat Washington State (1-4) 65-17
Troy (2-2) 41-38
Tulsa (3-2) 65-28
aTm (3-1) 38-35

No marquee wins

To be honest barring key injuries to OU none of theseteams scare me. For me picking our toughest remaining comes down to this one question ; who wants desperately to beat OU? The answer of course is T.Boone State.They will be at home in front of 45,000 screaming agroids who will all be shreiking,begging,and praying for a win.A win over OU makes their season even if they lose seven straight games going into OUr game.

aTm or oSu definitely.

No problems at home for us, and mizzou hasn't played anyone significant.

Any road game at Kyle Field is tough, and as much as I hate to say we still have to respect the slow pokes at home.

A&M because their QB can scramble

then OSU because their offensive fire-power.

It's definitely OSU. I mean, obviously you haven't been to OP recently. THIS IS THEIR YEAR, DAMMIT!

They want to beat us so damn bad. It makes me chuckle a little every time I hear a Poke wish for our demise more than he wishes success for his own.

I want to see OU win a couple more games comfortably before I start talking about who is and isn't a test.

Any of the road games will be a threat.

I have a feeling the A&M or OSU game is going to be a blowout by us, and then the other game is going to be very close. IMO it's up in the air right now as to which one is which, but I'm sure it will become more and more clear as the season goes on.

If Jerrod Johnson doesn't figure out what team he's supposed to be throwing to, Aggy is in big trouble.

Seeing that game made me lol at all the preseason hype surrounding that turnover machine.

Landry Jones, Coaches & Jimmy Stevens.

Any and every away game... The truth hurts! OU is not a strong road team!

It makes me chuckle a little every time I hear a Poke wish for our demise more than he wishes success for his own.That Poke attitude is exactly why I think they are the most dangerous foe left.Their coach,fans ,team are all about beating OU.If you don't believe it,check out the mural in the osu HOF ,it depicts their win over OU in 2001. Obviously that IS their crowning moment in football.

The schedule is road-heavy with teams that are better than Cincy. And now Baylor and ISU figured out how to score 50+? OUr biggest test may just be figuring out how to play a full 4 qtrs.

Jimmy Stevens is the man. If he had been on the field for the fake, it would have worked.

One at a time. ISU is not a team to take lightly, they hung tough vs KSU and didn't away against Iowa.

I have no faith in this team being able to put away any of the teams remaining on our schedule.

They hang 1/2 hundred on homecoming night game against 'Clowns (a team Iowa completely dominated 35-7); everyone starts to talk about how good they are & then they fall flat at Mizzou but pull it out with a late TD run by #7.
