Apparently, OSU is playing the SEC

It's weird how fans from non-SEC conferences try to play every game like this off as a fair "Big 12 vs. SEC" matchup. OSU is the preseason favorite in their league, and we're a below average SEC team. If they don't beat us somewhat handily, it's going to (and should) look bad for the Big 12.

This quotes their players...

who were probably asked the question about playing an SEC team. Their coaches are trying convince them that we are Bama or LSU.

I realize that this specific article quotes their players who were asked questions about playing an SEC team. I'm just talking about non-SEC fans and the non-SEC media in general who try to play these games up as fair comparison between the two conferences.

wow.. not conditioned? really?

"You know, I just think that the SEC is blown a little bit out of proportion. There's a lot of great players down there and it's a heavily recruited area, but at the same time we play really fast offense here and sometimes those SEC defenses lose their breath against it. They have big guys but they aren't very well conditioned. We're gonna play our best ball and see what happens."

Well, to be fair,

apparently (per Turner) a few of our DL guys are not where they need to be (condition wise).

For some reason this flashes me back to 1996 pre-game hype before we played Cincinnati in the Southeast regional. They were just gonna physically whip our asses. I remember someone asking Damp how in the world we were going to handle big bad Cincy who spent so much time training in the weight room. Damp replied "you know,we lift weights too" . We all know how that turned out.

Click to expand...

It was all about how physical their guards were. Bullard and Super D whipped that ***. Probably Bullards best game ever. He dominated initimidated that guy all game long. That is my favorite game to go back and watch. A close second is the Donte Jones show to win the SEC tourney.

Lots of bulletin board material there.

OSU is going to show up ready to play. We better have our heads on straight or it's going to get ugly.

****...it sounds like they are getting ready to play alabama, georgia, florida, or lsu. i dont think i would be that jacked up about playing the 8th best team in the big 12..err, whatever they are now. i would hardly consider that a statement game about conference superiority.
