Dave: Worry meter high — Jayhawks will bring their best shot

by

No one said it was going to be easy.

Some casual fans out there probably came into that game against UCF thinking, “UCF will be a cake walk, they’ve already lost three games. We’re going to roll them.”

Some of us knew better. Coming off the huge emotional win against texas. Having to go thru a bye week and the possible rustiness that comes with that.

The fact that UCF had the 4 th ranked offense in the country and had just gotten back their starting QB from injury. And of course a strong opposing head coach in Gus Malzahn. If ever there was a trap game…

In the pre-game interview with texas coach Steve Sarkisian he said he just wanted his team to have fun and play good football.

texas…man I hate those bastards. 

After last year’s debacle in Dallas, all of Sooner nation is looking for redemption this Saturday morning in the Cotton Bowl.  I have no doubt that Oklahoma will make a much better showing this year than last.  Having a healthy Dillion Gabriel alone will make this a close game. 

I still can’t get over how inept the Sooners were at the QB position without our starter last year. 

Fortunately, that issue seems to have been taken care of as I am more than confident in Jackson Arnold should Gabriel suffer an injury. 

And by the way, when the media talks about last year’s lopsided score, they never bring up that fact that we had a quarterback that would be hard pressed to start for the local junior college much less in the Cotton Bowl.  All they see is the score.
