Sooners facing better players in game against Buckeyes, Worry Meter at 95%
Mission accomplished against ULM. 59-17 against an outmanned opponent.
On the face of it, it would seem the Sooners got some stuff worked out. Baker threw to several different receivers, he didn’t force the ball downfield. The running backs found the holes that the O-line opened for them. Riley called a much more balanced game.
The defense pitched a shutout in the first half, and most starters sat the second half. And we cleaned up the stupid penalties.
But in the end, we really don’t know. We can just hope that the problems that surfaced in the season opener against Houston have been fixed, because a similar offense comes to town on Saturday, but with much better players.
Ohio St. has a better Greg Ward Jr., and a better Duke Catalon and a better Steven Dunbar. Ohio St. will also have better depth at every position than Houston had. And unfortunately Ohio St., up and down the roster, will have better players than Oklahoma. It’s just a fact.
