Looks like 1 school in MS is serious about football.

OU is truly fully OU right now and not many teams want to play them... Who beats Bama at Bryant Denny? That is a very very short list.
That was a very odd game. OU had 212 yards of total offense and Bama had 406. Ty Simpson threw for a bunch of yards but threw a pick six. Bama couldn’t hit a chip shot FG right before half and it ended up being the difference in the game.
Great win for OU, but if they met again in the playoff Bama might be favored in the rematch. I saw a crazy stat from Bill Connelly that OU’s postgame win expectancy on Saturday was like 3 or 4%, based off the stats of both teams.
OU playing to get into the playoffs and got one of the best resume wins of the entire season.
Honestly there’s a decent chance that’s a playoff rematch right off the bat. They’ll both be in the 8 to 10 range in tonight’s rankings and that means them being the 8 vs 9 game is very much in play (though it would probably be in Norman).
Yes, he was. If you think Kiffin’s plan A was a Ferris State transfer, I don’t know what to tell you. And again, Chambliss is nowhere on anyone’s draft board even after this “breakout” year. He’s very well coached, but he isn’t talented.
The point you’re missing is that OU’s offense sucks. One of the worst in the SEC. Not being in sync is their default condition. It’s who they are. Yet both their offense and Mateer performed better against OM than Bama, so your point really makes no sense.
Mateer did not fumble (or didn’t lose a fumble anyway). Check the box score. The only turnover was a fumble by one of OU’s WR’s (which might even be a mistake because its not showing up on the drive charts).
He threw for 223 with a TD on 7.2 YPA. No turnovers. He threw for 136 on 6.0 YPA against Bama. Offense scored 26 points against OM. They scored 17 against Bama.
Again, you simply have to be trolling. Nothing you are saying makes sense.
The only one with blind homer bias is you. You are trying to shoehorn in these arguments with made up nonsense that no one else on planet earth is making to try and discredit a quality win by a team none of us like. But some of us can still accept reality and not just blatantly make shít up to try and change it.
Even your secondary argument that UF is their “actual best win” is delusional. They also have a win over LSU.
You're going to focus on completion percentage? Mateer threw for just 138 yards against Bama, with no TD passes. Their only TDs were a pick six, and a Mateer run following a fumble recovery deep in Bama territory. They are lucky they had no turnovers, especially since Bama kept knocking the ball loose.
The timing of the UF win was better due to the pressure of the playoffs and UF was playing well. OU at Norman looked like an engine with the timing off. OU at Bama looked like a team that could beat just about anyone.
Tell me what would happen if OM played OU at Norman now. Everyone with half a brain (sit this one out) knows that answer.
"Chambliss isn't talented"
"Mateer and the OU offense sucks"
"OU played better at Norman than Tuscaloosa"
You are clinically insane.
Luck usually works out well at Bryant Denny for the visiting team. Johnny Football can teach you a class on that. Doubt you would pass though.
What would happen if they played again would probably be the same thing that happened the first time…..a hard fought, one possession game that could go either way depending on a play made or missed here or there.
Man, @onewoof I like you, but you might want to sit the next couple of plays out. You’re starting to tread into HuntDawg territory with some of these takes.
It is if they have more people willing to give more of it.
I don’t know how their giving compares to ours but they’ve been doing NIL even before NIL was a thing.
They will beat us by 10+ points at minimum and it could very well be a blowout. We won't be able to stop their run game or get to the QB.
The only thing making me think it could be close is the last two years I thought we were going to get destroyed too and those end up being weirdly close longer than they had any right to be. But yeah, ultimately I have no faith in our defense stopping their offense, and don’t think our offense is consistent enough to keep up with them in a track meet.
Hey now, we have an impressive 28 wins over that same period against what HAS to be the toughest schedule in the country. That's almost 6 wins a year!*
