10-0. Unless you count the gap before the Big 12 title game. Then it is 11-1 with the debacle that was Kansas State.

Best performances after a bye week...1999 aTm, 51-6. 2000 Nebraska, 31-14...after the first 5 minutes. Heck, even last year the bye was well played when we had one after UCLA and came back with a 43-21 win over Kansas State and made vast improvements.

Let's hope the streak continues...

Alot of teams made vast improvements against Kansas Aggy last year.

Well, considering OU has not lost much at all in the Stoops era...I would not necessarily say we are BETTER after a break. Most of our losses came in the post season (except last year) and they were after breaks...

One trend I noticed is that we win the Big XII every 2 years since the 00'.

Thanks. Last night I was wondering what Stoops' B12 record is after bye weeks, because I remembered several pretty big wins after byes (the 99 ATM game; NU in 2000). We played huge in those games.

All the proof you need right there that we will beat Texas this year. :D
