I'll say what everyone else is thinking...

[My Opinion Matters]

Missouri scares me. Missouri scares me a lot.

[SoonerEmpire]

- Missouri has a powerful offense, but it's the spread. Bob Stoops knows how to defend the spread. After all, he's the first one to bring the spread to the Big XII.

- As for their defense? Missouri is ranked 79th in the nation in total defense.

- Stoops has only lost TWO home games in the last SIX years!

Mizzou will be tough, but I don't think they'll be able to beat us.

[OUDoc]

Home game. That's the only reason I feel better.

[Position Limit]

dude, clean the sand out of your vagina. paper tigers. this will be the game that ou absolutely rolls and gets back in the spotlight. at home, at night, espn gameday. please. big time players, big time plays, big time games.

[Mac94]

Should be a good game .... but:

1) OU is at home

2) while Missouri's offense is good, so is OU's ... and OU's defense is better than Missouri's.

3) I think Stoops and company are better than Gary Pinkle and staff ... still waiting for one of his choke jobs.

Missouri is a scary team. But OU has always seemed to be able to defend their type of offense. They don't throw it down the field a whole lot but instead throw short passes and work methodically down the field. Seems like that is more suited for our defensive scheme. We better be on our game though because how well OUr defense does against their offense is likely to decide the game.

Now it's our job as fans to make that stadium Saturday night an atmosphere that Missouri will never forget. They have to make a lot of calls at the line so it better be beyond loud. I like the 5:30 start time because it gives us all day to stir up into a frenzy by game time. I can't wait for Saturday!

If they can run the ball in addition to passing it all over the place, then we're in trouble. I feel confident that we can score fairly easily on their defense.

Plus they have Gary Pinkel.

I think we are going to have a team ready to get back home and play in a more friendly environment (been 28 days since last home game). And the team usually responds well when they play a home game right after a win over Texas.

And I still am not sure If Missouri is ready for primetime on the road.

There are only two things in this world that scare me and one of them is nuclear warheads.

You've obviously never been to Joplin.

[stoopified]

The Tigers would scare me IF they had a strong running game to go with Daniel and the passing game.

[LittleWingSooner]

Missouri is the best team we have faced so far this year. They have the best win coming in against Illinois. They have a great offense and their defense looks pretty solid against the run outside of one game against Ole Miss. I think we'll get to Daniel a lot though.

[stoopified]

I would be afaraid if it were at Columbia and IF the Tigers had a running attack.Their leading rusher is Tony Temple(351 yds,4.9 avg) sprained an ankle against Cornland and will not be 100% if he plays.Daniel (188) yds is 2nd leading rusher.

i'm glad it's in Norman

This year has proved the old axiom that nobody took serious - that anybody can beat anybody. Doesn't really matter if Missouri looks good or not they can beat us if we don't perform. That goes for any game from here on out. One game at a time. Forget the polls, forget conference standings, forget the BCS. The only thing that matters is the next game and right now, that's Missouri. Boomer.

LOL!

I hail from Webb City myself. You probably should have said Oronogo!


As for the game, MU is a good enough team to win if OU doesn't show up to play. They will show up and I think the score is closer to the Miami game than the Texas game.

[MamaMia]

Just exactly what about Missouri scares you?
Is it something they have or something we don't have?
'That' is the question my friend.

[CitySooner]

You guys scare too easy. Remember, we went to Columbia last year against this same team and DOMINATED them in THEIR HOUSE. Sure, we might have had a better defense up front than we do now, but our offense is better than last year and our secondary is better. We are at HOME, at NIGHT IN PRIME TIME, and much is at stake in the hunt for the national championship. Mizzou will have some success moving the ball, but with their top runner not at 100%, they will have to throw the ball all night long. Expect as many picks as touchdowns thrown to our defense. Our offense will be UNSTOPPABLE. Look for the mighty Crimson to roll in a fairly high scoring affair. Relax scaredypants:

CRIMSON 52
TIGGERS 24

[Newbomb Turk]

Plus they have Gary Pinkel.

I like our chances.
