My game-by-game predictions
Temple Owls: Win. OU gets its footing under Jackson Arnold, despite many injuries in pre-season camp. Guaranteed win.
Houston Cougars: Win. OU picks up the pace.
Tulane: Win. Last easy win. Taking a deep breath.
Tennessee: Toss Up, but probable win only because it is at Owen Field. Let’s hope Josh Huepel is seen crying as the Orange bobble-heads wiggle home, but make no mistake, the Hype is real and so is his team.
I have spent much of the last nearly three months in beautiful Port Orchard, Washington, walking the quiet forest floors, looking up at 300-foot pine trees while the cool Pacific Ocean breezes waft across the bay straight into my youngest daughter’s hill-top home.
Here the eagles, fly, the seals frolic and the porpoises jump for glee.
I definitely think I can see Russia from here!
I also have been dreaming all summer long of Jennifer Connelly and Diane Lane, but in the last few days before my departure back to Sugarland, Texas, where I will return to lock-up, I have had the painful displeasure of joining several SEC College Football fan sites.

OU’s football team should never again play Kansas State under any circumstances, anywhere, anytime ever again – without some Witch/Conjurer/Sorcerer who magically transports themselves to the center of the field wherever the teams are playing and then proceeds to cast a spell on football ineptitude, stupidity and poor play over every second of KSU’s play.
The Curse Of The Wildcat has struck OU again. And this time, it was not only ugly proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, that, right now, Venables, et al on the defensive coaching staff, have no Sooner magic over a barely acceptable, very poor defensive squad.
In the Sooner’s mystifying and epic defensive collapse last Saturday a seemingly dumbstruck Venables, the head Defensive Coordinator, and Co-Defensive Coordinator Ted Roof looked bewildered in the post-game press conference, with not a real answer between them of how they are going to fix the Calamity Of The 12 Defense that trotted onto the field in Kansas?
