Hunter’s Top 5 things to do for OU-Texas weekend

by

I’ll be heading to Dallas on Friday with all the rest of you Sooner fans. Here is my list of the top things every Soonerguy should do this weekend:

1. The game itself. Be one of the 90,000 fans (only 45,000 of them count, of course) that are making constant noise for 3 hours. It gives you a chance to yell bad things to other people and everyone thinks it is OK.

2. The Texas State Fair. Big Tex is big. The corn dogs are big. The fair is big. The midway rides give Texas fans something to do after their loss before they have to drive home.

3. The Drive to Dallas. There are at least 30,000 of the 45,000 Sooner fans who travel down I-35 on Friday. It’s like a massive D-Day invasion. Very cool.

OU vs TCU: Knight’s game to step up

by

One man goes down, another steps up. And in this case he stepped up in a major way.

Samaje Perine was the hero with a herculian effort against the Mountaineers. When you read the stats for Perine it’s hard not to get excited at what the future may hold for the true freshman from Pflugerville, Texas. 244 yards and 4 touchdowns. And no, that’s not stats from the last time you hooked up Playstation.

Perine and the offensive line just took it too West Virginia and never let up. This OU offense is quickly being defined by its punishing offensive line and running game. And it’s a good thing too. The air attack is still trying to find itself. Knight still has trouble looking past his primary target and can have trouble with his accuracy.

Dave: Bring on the SEC, but worry meter jumps

by

To me the win against Tulsa was very impressive. That could have been a huge trap game. On the road against a big underdog. Bad weather. The game before the big bad SEC comes to Norman.

OU could have really struggled to get up for that game. But they took to the field in a business like manner and they, well…took care of business.

The offense didn’t miss a beat scoring touchdowns on three of their first four possessions. And the defense continued to dominate in all phases and limited Tulsa to 7 points and just over 300 yards of offense. Most of it in garbage time.

Trevor continues to improve with every game and the Belldozer got the first touchdown reception of his career to become one of just a handful of Sooners who have passed for, rushed for and caught a touchdown. It was just a very impressive performance, as it was supposed to be.

And now, as I stated earlier, the big bad SEC rolls into Norman in the form of the Tennessee Volunteers.

I can’t begin to tell you how sick I am of this whole Stoops vs the SEC that has been so overblown by the media. All he ever did was give his opinion about the way the media has spun the supposed dominance of the SEC.
