WooHoo!:thumbsup:

Oklahoma Sooners No. 1 in AP preseason top 25 college football poll - ESPN

Personally, I think IF, and it's a BIG IF, IF we can get by Florida State, we may be able to do this. Texas will probably be down a little still this year, we have A&M at home, Missouri at home, and Tech at home. The next HUGE test will be @ Ok State. What stinks is that under the "normal" rotation, the way we were going, this years game was suppose to be here in Norman. But because of the re-alignment or losing 2 teams, we have 2yrs in a row @ Ok State. If we are still rolling undefeated then......look out. I expect Ok State will probably have 1 loss maybe 2, @ A&M and maybe @ Tech, they'll be tough road games for them. We have a chance, but anymore "big" injury's and all bet's are off. When we won in 2000 it was becuse we stayed healthy all year, among other things. I'm not going to hold my breath but I may keep my fingers crossed.

OU seems to have the easiest path to the BCS Title game outside of maybe Nebraska in the Big Ten if enough teams fall.

So who's your pick to play in the National Title Game? I'm going to be a homer:love: and go with OU and Bama:jump::clap::cheers::nixon::smokin:

Mr. Ford95 08-20-2011 05:19 PM

If Oregon is still eligible for postseason play then I will go with them to return to the Title game and Bama.

I don't think yall will have to worry about FSU...
Should be a good match up, but I think OU's offense will run away with it in the 4th.

I hope your right. I'm sure a lot will depend on their new QB's play also. If he's a Newton, Young type of QB he could kill us.

If Oregon makes it through their schedule, they willl deserve it. I think Stanford, Washington and maybe SC will be their toughest games, Cal usually gives them a tussell too. Did Oregon lose a lot of players last year?

Mr. Ford95 08-21-2011 01:58 PM

On Offense, no they didn't. They have their top 2 players back there, not sure on Defense.

I've heard that if Auburn gets 7 wins this season, they will be doing good. Sounds funny, them being the defending national champs, but it's pretty common for a team not to be as good as they were a year before.

They have been talking around here about how much traveling David Boren, (OU's President), has been doing lately, flying out on the University's Jet. Boren said on the news last night that OU wasn't going to be the one standing around while everything is happening around them. They said on sportscenter this morning that Texas, Texas Tech, and O-State would go with OU to form the "PAC-16". Boren said he will have a decision within the next 3 weeks. I would think if he has a timetable already set up that a deal has been made and "they" are just waiting for the "particulars" to get worked out.
