Texas opens as a 5 point favorite v Oklahoma
We were discussing this last year over 7am Fair parking lot booze and gummies and decided it had to mean Gabriel was playing. If you could have assured me he wasn't taking snaps, I would have bet literally every penny of disposable income I had on Texas. Beville is legit the worst QB I've ever seen start for OU and I went there and attended every home game for the Schnelly and Blake years.

Texas opens as a 5 point favorite v Oklahoma
So you have figured out a "style of play" loophole in advanced metrics that Sagarin, Connelly, Vegas, etc., are all blind to and unable to correct? Please describe exactly how Wyoming's style of play creates this conundrum. Does it bake in that their starting QB missed the Texas game? Also, if Tech and Wyoming played again, Tech would be favored again. Tech ran fairly bad to lose that game. I agree Wyoming isn't garbage, but if you play in the Cotton Bowl the way you did the first three quarters of that game, Texas will get their asses handed to them.

Texas opens as a 5 point favorite v Oklahoma
Are you arguing that being tied 10-10 in the 4th quarter against a G5 team can ever be called "beating the piss" out of someone? You would call me out for saying OU "beat the piss" out of SMU, and SMU was never tied or in the lead after 0-0. Also that 4th quarter ended with Wyoming covering the spread by 10.5 points, another solid argument against that being a "piss beating."

Sure, would expect most/all here to expect Texas to win. But some of the wishcasting or belief that it is still 2018 on the defensive side of the ball, or that literally every metric, including tons that adjust for opponent strength are alllll incorrect and you guys have it figured out instead is hilarious. Texas has a really really good team this year, and very well may win, and possibly can win handily. But things like "OU can't stop the run" and "OU's WRs suck" are pretty objectively false.- Texas opens as a 5 point favorite v Oklahoma

OU's WR blocking has also been really really good so far this season. Andrel Anthony is a playmaker, Nic Anderson is going to be a beast, Gibson is excellent now that he learned how to catch, and Stoops is really really reliable and tough. I think people will be surprised considerably if they think OU's WR are mid.- Texas opens as a 5 point favorite v Oklahoma
- Texas vs OU 11 am or 2:30 pm?
saaaaaaaaaaame- Tell me about ou
LOL yes OU was in the playoffs two seasons before Brent came. The season before, they didn't win the conference, won a lot of one-score games, and then lost the next season's Heisman winner at QB and lost a lot of one-score games. Funny how Washington immediately got better when Sark left, how both of Sark's USC seasons were worse than the one that got Lane Kiffin fired, and how a Texas team that was 32-18 in the 4 seasons before Sark goes 13-12 in his first 2. Turnaround King!- Tell me about ou
Lastly, just giant LOL at how everyone knows Brent is dead with a 10-7 start to his career but Sark starting 13-12 in his first two seasons at Texas after going 46-35 as a head coach is clearly a playoff-ready coach. Sark has 9 seasons as a coach with zero top 20 finishes. Texas has one top 18 finish since 2009. Please find a 13 year stretch where OU had one finish in the top 18.- Tell me about ou
OK $150 on over 9 then?- Tell me about ou
OU 88-99 was 77-58-3 (57% win). TX 00-21 was 81-67 (55% win). Also TX had 5 losing seasons sprinkled through the whole run. OU had 3 losing seasons, all in a row. 1994-1998 for OU was agreed a worse sustained run than either have had. Also OU finished in the top 15 three times from 1988 to 1993. Texas finished ranked exactly once (19th) from 2010 through 2017.- Tell me about ou
Texas hasn't been as bad as 96-98 OU, but the full decade wasn't as bad as being portrayed, and OU 88-99 was better than TX 10-21 overall.
