OSU has been very balanced on offense this year (almost 50/50 pass to run). Given the conditions, I think OUr defense should take it to them on the line of scrimmage shutting down the run and disrupting the passing. On offense, we have been more run oriented during the year and we should continue that trend tonight. When OSU moves the LBs up to stop the run, we should make them pay with some routes over the middle. That is my amateur assessment. It would be great to hear some more insightful thoughts.

I think our offensive line needs to have their best performance. I doubt they let Baker stay in the game if he takes even one big shot. OSt is going to bring pressure early and often. They're going to take shots at him.
If the same line shows up today that showed up against TCU, we'll be in trouble.
The OkieSt defensive line is no joke either.

I agree,they're going to bring the pressure all night. OUr biggest offensive struggles have come against teams who were successful doing that. We need the same offensive line that showed up for Baylor. I hope OUr defense follows suite and brings it to the Pokes all night.
Really simple....keep Mayfield up and running. His good health will determine the outcome....alone. So goes Mayfield, so goes OU's chances.
