Florida at Oklahoma (01/08/2009)

Right now I'm leaning toward OU. Here's a few thoughts:

The football world looks pretty flat this year. Each conference has had good and bad moments. There's no discernable trend to this point, especially for those banging the SEC.

The Sooners began running a hurry up offense this season that typically leaves teams scrambling. Florida likes to rotate their defenders - especially the D line - quite a bit during an offensive series. That won't be able to happen with regularity against OU.

Bradford has attempted 476 passes this season but has only been sacked 11 times. That's insane. And this year's Gator team is not known for its pass rush.

Bradford is deadly accurate: 48 touchdowns and 6 picks. Florida has the No. 2 pass efficiency defense. But that might be affected by their DBs not being able to line up properly when facing a hurry up offense. Something has to give.

OU scored more points than the 1994 Penn St. team and the 2003 USC team. That shouldn't be ignored.

Oklahoma DT Gerald McCoy, who has 6.5 sacks this season, is the best interior pass rusher in the country. Getting heat on Tebow with four rushers is key.

OU will play Cover 2 and Cover 3 zone, which Tebow rarely faces in the SEC. SEC schools play lots of man to man. That should help defenders get to Tebow quicker when he tucks the ball to run.

OKLAHOMA/UNDER   FLA/OVER TOO EASY?

• An OK team that has been playing some sweet offense of late.
• But I also see that Bradford has had some work done with the Dr's knife on his left hand.
• Then I saw where OK has been bad-mouthing Tebow saying that he (Tebow) would not do so well in the Big-12.
• I like the FLA punt-game edge; and I like the recent play of the Gators defense.

Big 12 Defenses suck plain and simple, and they rack up those wonderful offenseive stats playing joke defenses with spread offense. Florida gets it done.

Texas Tech put up more points on Ole Miss than Florida did.
