Yes, Oklahoma was top 10.

I think the OU defense is still one of the best of thr country. Obviously the QB play is KILLING them.

But still.

THREE TOP 11 TEAMS!

How far do we drop down in the polls after last night’s $EC road win?

Not to shabby for a team that was projected to get 4 wins by the experts.

We were picked 15/16 in the SEC by many sportswriters and magazines. I'm thinking some people were perfectly lazy in their research since we are tied for #1 lol

Just goes to show how preseason polls are meaningless. There really should not be any belief in rankings until several games in. The flip of projections is unreal.

To me the signature win was LSU. That is a really good team. Oklahoma was bad with their quarterback. At South Carolina was our second best win. These games show that coaching makes a big difference. Risking 2 point conversions at the end of games is something that Stoops never would have tried. Got us 2 wins. Winning the turnover battles again was something that Stoops could hardly accomplish with his defensive structure. It's been a great season so far.

I have no idea how we didn't have the hardest rated schedule in the country. Does the first SOS team play Georgia five times?

I see a lot of people making fun of the experts for projecting a 2-4 win season. Let's face it. All of us did the exact same thing.

NO ONE could've predicted this.
