I believe that the Kansas City writer, Whitlock, headlined in a similar fashion after we won the Big XII championship in December. (If someone has that article please attach). Truer words have not been spoken. His article was based on the fact that OU had endured the Bomar and Oregon debacles and still won the championship. And that was just the start..
Consider this... Many pundits will (or already have) pick us to win again this year after looking at OUr returning talent. Additionally, look at the Depth Chart. An overwhelming number of the starters are underclassmen and we may not have any drop-off in the other spots Sure, Allen Patrick should be good, but I am comfortable (understatement)with Murray, Brown and the incoming 08 RBs. Again, I like JoeJon, but I am just fine (again) with Gresham and Eldridge. Same with the D.. Lendy will be a highly competent corner when he gets his starting job back.
We may not win a NC this year (but we just might..), but the rest of the Big XII should take no solace because for the foreseeable future, we will be the favorites.. The Bullies are Back.
