Give me at least 3 predictions regarding the Sooners or any Big XII team for the upcoming season.

1. Mark Andrews has at least 12 receiving TDs.

2. Obo, Gallimore and Ward will wreak havoc in the backfield in ways we haven't seen in a while.

3. Kansas does not dwell in the cellar.

1) OU defense finally reclaims its knack for forcing turnovers. Much better Oko is the defensive player of the year.

2) OU dominates little snot nosed brother and pounds the shorthorns.

3) Shorthorns lose a close one against the blowjans and then stumble on from there.

I am afraid to say anything good with regards to how OU's season will go as it always bites me in the rear.
Been bit by the hype too many times so I will say we will win a few games and instead I will jinx someone else , texass wins the Big 12,11, 10 and goes on to the playoffs and wins the National Title. There, texass will suffer for sure now.

Agree. OU has been shown to fall short of lofty preseason levels historically.
This team in 2017 can be a 4-loss team, or can have its talented but inexperienced young players and newcomers become quick contributors and put together at least a 1 or 2 loss season.
So much will be answered by September 9th against Ohio State. A close well-played game by OU, win or lose, would bode well for the long range success of Riley's first team.

I think OU has 2 losses. Losing badly to Ohio state and someone sneaks up on us in conference.

I'm confident that, even if we don't get the W, our showing in Columbus will be much greater than last year's. That's not to say that I believe last year's loss was due to a lack off effort. I just felt like Bob's tendency to keep things to vanilla early had bitten us before, and could have been a contributing factor in early losses to Houston and the Nuts.

It may appear classless, but we need to get the youngsters as much experience against UTEP as possible. And I don't mean 3rd string youngsters. I mean starters and expected 2nd string rotators.

1. Bob Stoops won't miss having to talk to the press.
2. texass will still suck.
3. Riley will have butterflies his first game.
4. A lot of beer will be consumed during football season, I will do my part.
5. Mike Stoops will remember seeing an offense like Ohio States but will not remember where he saw it.
6. I will go to at least one home game this year.

1) Both Mayfield AND Murray will be Heisman finalists.

2) Neville Gallimore leads the team in sacks, tackles, interceptions, and body slams.

3) We won't have a running back rush for 1,000 yards. Anderson will have 2,000.

4) OU wins the Big Twelve Conference Championship Game. And the SEC Conference Championship Game. And a first round playoff game in the NFL against an opponent to be named later.

5) Lincoln Riley is voted the AP Coach of the Year. But he rejects that honor in lieu of accepting the title "The Man Who Made Saban Cry Like A Pre-Pubescent Girl".

"Confidence: It's what makes the Sooners Great" Is how I remember the pre-game on KRMG back in the days before weekly tv broadcasts...

I know you're being facetious, but all of those things very well could happen.
