Texas or Mizzou? Who's the real contender?

[8timechamps]

I've watched both teams play this year, and without a doubt think Mizzou is the real deal, and texas comes into Dallas Saturday undefeated simply because they haven't played anyone close to being good.

Not to say we have had a tough road, but I think we can at least say Cincy and TCU gave us some kind of gauge to see where we are.

Mizzou, on the other hand, played a decent Illini team, and went into Lincoln at night and destroyed the huskers. Nothing to sneeze at.

I really don't think we'll get much of a challenge until the Big XII CCG.

HOWEVER, there will be one game along the way, that we don't click...and it's closer that we expect. I just don't see it being this weekend.

Either we run for close to 200 yards or Sam goes off. They're gonna die one way or another.

both....

[CK Sooner]

I think Texas will put up more of a fight than Mizzou.

[Dan Thompson]

I think Texas and Missouri go at it on the Nov 18th

[sooner518]

watching Mizzou's D against Nebbish, I think Mizzou is not for real

Ummm.... whichever team we face first maybe we should consider to be a real contender?

Seriously... Texas has better athletes top to bottom when you consider both offense, defense, and overall team depth. Probably better coaching, too.

Possibly.

They both have suspect defenses this season. However, I do think Daniel is a much more dangerous qb than McCoy.

Maybe, but I'd take McCoy over Daniel any day of the week in a pressure situation and as a leader. At least this far into their careers. Maybe some day Daniel will have some sense knocked into him, but I doubt it.

[soonerboy_odanorth]

It's never accurate to compare year to year because teams have different leaders, chemistry, blah blah blah.....

But.

In our victories over Texas and Mizzou x 2 what were the point differentials?

Dizzactly.

[Soonerus]

Mizzou will pull a Mizzou choke...

[GottaHavePride]

04 coulda been a contender.

Besides the OU/Tex game this weekend, it will be interesting to see how the Missouri defense handles the Aggy offense.

zzzzzzzzz, the obvious...

what? that you were dropped on your head at birth?

poor effort, my man...

[cheezyq]

Considering that Mizzery hasn't accomplished anything significant....I'd give the edge to Tecksass. At least Tecksass has a few players on staff that remember what it's like to defeat OU.

I guess we'll have the best look since we see you both in back to back weeks. Both you and we are much improved but my gut tells me you may be more improved. That doesn't mean you can't make a few crucial mistakes, or we can't for that matter. This game could be really close or a blow out depending on how the breaks fall. As far as this week, I got tickets for the same reason I got a ticket for the USC game. I thought we had a long shot but knew I couldn't live with NOT being there if we did win. Best decision I ever made. My opinion is you should be favored but we can still win and I like our odds. But if I couldn't see us winning how could I call my self a Longhorn for these past 40 years? See ya in Dallas.

I'm not sure that Mizzou even wins the North. I think they'll take a couple losses from the south and one from the North. They'll end up mediocre and with a high-teens ranking. Mark it down.

The reason: Chase Daniel is a little boy.
