B12 preseason rankings
- Thread starter ETU
- Start date
OU has the schedule to win a bunch of games this year. Next year is what has me concerned.
Embrace it my man, we know it's coming and it's my belief Brent will handle it.
How's yer health brother? Could you handle a B12 championship? I see it coming my man.
I've only missed two. One was in 2006 when my separation from my ex was new. The other was early COVID. Especially since it's now semi-permanent in Dallas, I'll be there if we're there, and I'm breathing. This defense will have to be the best in more than a decade for us to have a chance to get there. In an offensive minded league, I don't think we can keep up, and overcome what the stripes will do to us.
Well you just hang on and enjoy this defense you haven't witnessed since the early 2000s. It's here I tell ya. It's all coming together my man.
Politics git everyone boiling. Never should be personal imo. I stir the pot with best of em.
Agree, but many OU fans will again doubt Venables’ ability if this year’s team struggles… ignoring the fact that this team is still in transition with the issues you mentioned, which I will add include the defensive line, secondary and kicking game.
I can’t recall an OU team being such an unknown quality as this 2023 team.
I think Brent and his staff have done a brilliant job with recruiting and portal additions to make this a severely underrated roster.
My greatest concern was the game management blunders we witnessed last season from Venables, Roof and Lebby. Maybe it was a lack of cohesion as a staff but a number of those close losses in 2022 were a direct result of poor in game management. I think it's an easy fix so I'm not panicking, but if we see the same issues in 2023, resulting in late game collapse, I'll start getting a little twitchy.
If Lebby can find the identity of this offense, this team could pop. Brent, I believe has guys he's a lot more comfortable with and won't be as complacent schematically.

G, if you’re right, I would like an invite to your birthday party because you’re blessed. Boomer!
On paper, Texas is the only one who should be favored over us. Brent can prove a lot by winning the games he's supposed too.
