Predictions for the OU game?

[18IsTheMan]

Not sure if anyone is ready to talk about it.

This game is definitely winnable, but Briles will have to be on his A game against Venables' D. OU really seemed to get their running game going last week against a good MSU run D, but they still only scored 23 points. Their offense hasn't scored more than 23 in a conference game.

My only prediction is that if we can score 25 points, we should win. If we allow MSU to score 24 or more points, it's probably a bad day for us.

Well the Gamblers are betting on South Carolina. Line strted at SC+ 5-1/2, now at SC +3-1/2.. my guess is a tough loss for SC, Sorry, Oklahoma 31 SC 28

 

[The Reel Ess]

We jump out to a 17-0 lead, then fizzle for 3 quarters. OU wins by going for 2 in OT.

Everything points to a low-scoring game. We've shown what we **can** do. I'm battling optimism - my heart won't allow it.

27-17 OU

It would be the disaster of all disasters if we gave up 31 points to OU. Unless there are a couple pick sixes in there.

This feels like a "come back down to earth" game for us.

We will need to play like we did against UF. We beat UT fair and square and deserved the win, but if not for some boneheaded mistakes by them, we lose by double digits.

I’ve been right on my last three so I’m feeling good about my prediction. 30-24 South Carolina.

Turnovers will decide this game. Winner has 27-30 and loser has 21-24 points.

OU does have the most turnovers in the league, with 15. We are 7th with 9 total.

We are about even in forced turnovers.

You have to feel like the defensive takeaways are going to improve soon. Been really low in productivity with that so far.

 

[Jonesz2]

How many times do we see times have a been win then go on the road and lose? I hate it but we probably go down.

OU. 25. USC 13

 

[Rhode Island Dork]

Gonna be a nail-biting, tight butthole game.

Cocks-23
Sooners-20

Descriptive.

I vote for bail biter too. Whoever makes the last turnover loses.

 

[Skuddy]

Sooners 21
Cocks 17

I'm thinking we have a rare Nyck Harbor sighting and he's get a score or two...leading to a 27 - 14 win. Sadly I'll be out with kids tricking and treating so will have to follow along on the phone intermittently for most of the game.

South Carolina 33
Oklahoma 16

I was doing the apple orchard thing in the mountains last Saturday. We got in the truck to come home just as we had punted and had them at their two yard line; maybe eight minutes left or so. They were leading 17-14 at that point.

People love to hate on Todd and Tommy (I think they’re great) but that radio broadcast was the most I’ve enjoyed a game in quite a while. Give the radio broadcast a try; I grew up that way so I love it.

 

[Deathstar]

We seem to have figured things out. We do have a lot of players out with injuries though. I think Cocks win 28-24.

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

SC wins.

 

[I4CtheFuture]

I'll give the same answer I gave last week.

South Carolina 33
Oklahoma 16

We’re not losing to crappy Oklahoma. This team is on a mission.

 

[Evilchicken]

We come back down to Earth…

31-24 Oklahoma

 

[WontSayMuch]

Hoping for a 2024 repeat. Maybe we will win big enough to put Venables on the hot seat.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!???

To each his own, but to me Todd is great at sounding like a drunk yelling during the game. He has zero play-by-play skills and is an insult to those who worked so hard to be able to paint a mental picture for the listener.

I have nothing against him personally, but he's a former player, not a professional radio play-by-play announcer.

Tommy is a color guy and does his job.

 

[cockyinflorida]

Anyone predicting us to lose does not know that this Briles offense is not slowing down. We could easily win out.
