View Full Version : Our best chances to move up next week...

We should move up from 9 to 7 with the Missouri and Michigan State losses...hope the Tigers enjoyed their one week reign over OU.

Next week Auburn and Oregon roll...Oregon hosts Washington and Auburn hosts Chattanooga. And from what I have seen I don't think our defense would stand a chance against their offenses...of course, I also think our offense would go through their defenses like a dose of Ex Lax through a widow woman.

We know someone in front of us is losing...TCU is at Utah. So with a win being 6th is highly likely.

Hawaii is at Boise State. I know, I know...but Hawaii is about the second best team Boise will play the rest of the way. Not likely.

Also, Alabama is at LSU. I prefer Bama go ahead and lose cause we still need them to rally to beat Auburn as well.

yep we absolutely need Bama to lose again (not against Auburn), then beat Auburn.

Bama needs to beat Auburn, then lose the ccg. I still think a 1 loss OU can move ahead of an unbeaten TCU and Boise.

Oklahoma is very very very close to Alabama. I would not be at all surprised if they jump Alabama this week...but doubt they will.

With that said, if Alabama wins out, and so does OU, the chacnes OU will be raned higher heading into the bowl season is very good. OU will have the tougher CCG opponent which will help in the final BCS ranking of the season.

If LSU beats Bammer and Bammer beats Auburn, what are we gonna do with an 11-1 LSU? If Oregon remains unbeaten....we're left OUt. I'd rather see Bammer in the title game than LSU.

LSU wouldn't be playing for the SECCG in that scenario, so they wouldn't be a factor, unless Auburn loses twice.

I think it's safe to say that either Auburn, Oregon, or Alabama will win the MNC at this point. Anyone of those teams with (maybe) the exception of Alabama would *ss rape OU on a neutral field.

Our best case scenerio until we learn how to finish on the road, is a BCS revenge game with the Mr. Potato Heads or the Horn Frogs.

This team is too young and doesn't play well enough on the road to pose any threat to these other high caliber teams. However; being this good and young now should pay dividends next year and beyond.

1. Oregon
Washington
@Cal
Arizona
@Oregon State
Back to back weeks Arizona and Oregon State could trip them up.

2. Boise State
Hawaii
@Idaho
Fresno State
@Nevada
Utah State
This is the toughest stretch of their schedule, which is laughable. Boise most likely won't lose, but I still have trouble believing that they will play in the national championship.

3. Auburn
Chattanooga
Georgia
@ Alabama
Alabama is really the only legitimate chance for them to lose. And they probably will.

4. TCU
@ Utah
San Diego State
@New Mexico
TCU is not a threat. They will not play in a national championship unless the Big 10, Big XII, SEC, and Pac 10 champs have 2 losses.

5. Michigan State
Minnesota
Purdue
@Penn State
Obviously, MSU just lost so we really needn't worry about them either. I think it would actually benefit us to have them win out. (Taking/sharing the Big 10 championship over Ohio State).

6. Alabama
@LSU
Miss. St
Georgia State
Auburn
The LSU and Auburn games are tossups. Preferably they lose to LSU and beat Auburn.

7. Utah
TCU
@Notre Dame
@San Diego State
BYU
They will probably lose one if not two, but like I said about TCU.. it doesn't matter.

8. Missouri
@ Texas Tech
Kansas State
@Iowa State
Kansas
It would benefit us to have Mizzou win out. Or at least beat KSU and KU because they aren't on our schedule this year. But it really doesn't matter that much.

9. Wisconsin
@ Purdue
Indiana
@ Michigan
Northwestern
We preferably need Wisconsin to lose a game--Michigan. Also, the more they lose the worse the Buckeyes look. But it doesn't matter- we will jump a 1-loss Big 10 champ.

10. Ohio State
Penn State
@Iowa
Michigan
Could lose to Iowa. Best Big 10 scenario: Iowa wins/shares the crown.

11. US! woo win out !

12. Nebraska
@ Iowa State
Kansas
@Texas A&M
Colorado
Preferably they win out, sets up a match up for the Big XII championship.

13. LSU
Alabama
ULM
Ole Miss
@Arkansas
Beat Alabama, lose to Arkansas would be nice.

and we really don't need to worry about anyone lower than this!

I don't care if you're young or have road problems. I'll take a shot at the best for the crown any day and I'll put this team up against any on any given day. We have weaknesses but so do other teams. Our best case scenario is and always will be playing for CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Should OU win the south and lose in the CCG and LSU wins out.....couldn't we have a possible rematch with the Tigers in the Super Dome?

Its also called blind homerism. Going to a MNC is only meaningful if you win, and there is no way in hell OU could handle Oregon or Auburn on the road.

We need a good solid CCG game win and a good BCS bowl win to build on for next year.

Not if the team that we don't play in the CCG (Nebraska/Mizzou) has one loss only, then we'd be looking at the Cotton Bowl.

Dude, this post is full of aggie "Loser Attitude". You give up the game before it's even played, and hope to "build for next year".

Sure, this team might lose to alot of teams on any given day...on a neutral field, away, or even at home. But they could also wipe the field with any team in the nation as well if they bring their A game.

But it's pathetic to take a teabag at the thought of OUr team playing in the NC game. The hell with next year....this is NOW, and OUr boys cant win a NC unless they play for it.

It's reality and a tough pill to swallow. If OU played against Oregon or Auburn, Stoops would be 2-6 in BCS bowl games and contimue to carry the moniker of "can't win the big games bob." Fans would want coaches fired, blame the players, wash rinse repeat.

My 5 year old boy has more heart than you. Point is, you can believe and linem up for Championships and win half the time or go play in Sun Bowls and be the better team. You can't win Championships if you don't play in them. Football is a game of matchups and if can win this conference and beat a good bugeaters team then we can beat a similar style Oregon team, or hopefully Boise.

I'm not here to call you names fellow Sooner but you need to sack up and believe in your team.

there was an interesting question here a few weeks ago.

Our team is young and struggles on the road. We're gonna have problems with the next three road games, watch. Be glad we didn't play last year's Cincy team or we'd be 1-2 on the road up until now.

So let's see, in order to win a BCS bowl you would first have to win the CCG, right?

So that's one CCG win and one BCS win? Yeah, with this team and the way they play on the road? Absolutely.

That'd be like saying would you rather pocket $500,000 or roll the dice for 1 million?

Based on this team's performance, I'd take a win over Nebbish in the CCG and a win over Boise in the Fiesta, rather than a mauling in a MNC with Oregon or Auburn. But that's just me, and I know we would lose that game.

Sorry, but second place is a moral victory. Remember, you can win BCS games that are not MNC and still have the CCG to go with it, and I'd take that any day over five losses in the MNC. This team has had enough BCS losses already. Would you REALLY want to see Stoops at 2-10 in BCS games?

Moral victories are far better than conceding a loss before you even play or step on the field. It's a defeatest attitude and shows very little testicular fortitude or character.

When you climb down from your high horse and take time to read the conversation you'll read the guy said he didn't want OU to play in a National title game against Oregon or Auburn because OU would be *** raped.

I appreciate you clearing things up about the difference between conceding defeat and predictions because I thought for sure our hopes were in the hands of the gutless that didn't even want us in the game in the first place.

You must have stayed in a holiday inn last night with all this insight.

Happy Halloween! I'm dressing up as big ole' scary Cam Newton or a Blur offensive duckling to keep all the Sooners out of the title game. It's not working!!!!

I read what the guy said he wanted. I figure you could take that to Starbucks and you would still need another 4 dollars if you wanted some coffee. I see nothing wrong with saying you don't believe this year is that caliber - they have certainly given plenty of reasons to doubt it. But I don't see the BCS title game on our schedule right now. If it were to work out that way, it would mean the team starting clicking and did some things they have yet to prove they could do. It wouldn't really be today's team - it would be a better version and they should be able to compete with anyone. If the guy's right about the current top teams being that much better, we'll get weeded out beforehand.

I don't think anything is wrong with saying we don't have a Championship caliber team but to say we'd get *** raped by two teams that have given up forty points to weaker offensive teams than OU and conceding defeat on a Sooner board is just plain weak. Then to call me a homer and a noobie opened him up for smack talk. Personally I think if teams don't spread OU out to the extreme of five wide sets at WR we can match up with anyone in the Country. I know we can score on average defenses and I'd never concede a defeat or not want to play for Championships.

Auburn and Oregon look dangerous and they would be tough but they have still got games to play, as do our Sooners.

Funny, you play the role of a whispering eye well.:D

I don't want to play for championships, I'm
scared of all things difficult. Don't coach please, for the sake of the children.

No offense bro but you don't know a god damn thing if you think we'd get rolled on a neutral field for a Championship.

Parity, KC, parity.

OU has plenty of weaknesses, offensive tackle and dline, but what you're seeing is that a lot of teams can beat a lot of teams "on any given day".

I'm not running from the fact that OU can beat anyone in the country on any given day and I'd rather line them up and try than tuck tail and be a poke.

Point, laugh all you want but that want change the fact that you run from things that are difficult. I'd rather play Sooner football and linem up because there's parity in all of CFB and anyone can win on any given day.

BOOMER!
