replied to WEEK 1 WITH FUTURES in College Football Keep puffin that big red, Cap. Take this team and play Bradford's 08 team or JWhite's 04 team...whats the result? Old team 42 Landry team 24 this is not a MNC type of team. Sooners have lost ~3.5 games a year on average the past 3 years. After all these suspensions/injuries, why would you expect anything different with a beast of a schedule? View Post \| View Thread	BigRedGambler	37	August 17, 2012 View Post \| View Thread

I have OU losing 3 or 4 of these games: @WVU, Texas, @ISU (lovely trap), OSU, @TCU, or @Tech Not sure which ones, just a tough schedule for a team that isn't as good as the great teams of Stoops' past. Don't understand how people can compare this team to some of the ones that had Bradford, JWhite, or Huepel. I think comparing it to some Hybl or PThompson teams would even be a stretch. OSU and OU will both compete for the Big 12, but I don't see anyone in the Big 12 coming out with less than 2 losses. Shouldn't have given a troll a legitimate response, but there you go. Stoops kicked off like 3 or 4 WRs, 4 OL aren't playing (2 good, 2 scrubs), no TEs, DL questions, shuffling positions on depth chart, rebuilding an awful secondary at times, haven't had a punt returner/kick returner in years, etc. Too many questions for 11 wins. Team was in turmoil before the Inight.com bowl last year and looked melancholy during it. Hard to believe the ole mojo is flowing right overnight in Norman. Not to mention if Landry has 1 bad game, the Bell birds will start singing awfully loud in his ear. How bad is ISU going to steamroll Tulsa, capper?

replied to Week 1 NCAAFB ATS/ML $ DUp4Life Wishes BOL to ALL++$$$ in College Football That Tulsa vs Iowa State line is boggling my mind as well. Tulsa loses a great QB in JG Kinne and is in year 2 Bill Blankenship who was a good local high school coach who lead Tulsa to 8-4 his first year. Even with the success that Kinne had, he was routinely pummeled by good OSU and OU teams. Now they go up to Ames, to play against Paul Rhodes in year 4 at Iowa State who should have that boat moving with some momentum this year and ISU is a home dog? Having a hard time not seeing ISU not winning this game by 14. View Post \| View Thread	DoubleUp4Life	63	August 17, 2012 View Post \| View Thread

replied to BEST VALUES FOR NCAAF RSW - OK State o7.5 in College Football Quote Originally Posted by Capper007: LOL REALLY POKEU, Defense only wins CHAMPIONSHIPS IF YOU HAVE OFFENSE TOO! You would bet on a Freshman QB? And bet with your heart? GL With that!! Didnt you lose starting RB too, along withQB and superstar WR! But uts a GOOD BET! First off, who is talking about Championships in this thread? I thought the 7.5 win total was in discussion. I simply stated that this will more than likely be the best D that Gundy has had. I do believe that . About the O, OSU has been a top 20 offense in the country since ~2007. You could suppose that it will disappear with the loss of Weeden and Blackmon, but the evidence suggests otherwise. The key to the offense is and will be, OL Coach Joe Wickline. Before we inserted Dana Holgerson's offense, OSU lead the big 12 in rushing 4 years in a row. With the departures of Weed&Black, I'd definitely expect us to go slightly back to more of a ground pound style. We'll see. I think betting on 8 wins is a solid bet, especially with the fortunate schedule. I wonder if perception about OSU would be a little better if we were starting the RS JR QB Chelf that Lunt beat out. This 7.5 bet will be ironed out by week 5, when Texas comes to Stillwater. OSU wins that, this over bet is cash. Loss? Prep the hedger.

replied to BEST VALUES FOR NCAAF RSW - OK State o7.5 in College Football Quote Originally Posted by gridironguy: Okie St finishes 7-5 imo as they have the most question marks theyve had in 4-5 yrs A very false statement. Going into 2010, OSU had tons of question marks. Gone were record setting QB, RB, WR, and 4 out of 5 on the OL. Phil Steele predicted OSU last in the big 12 south, they ended up tied for first. This year looks to be Gundy's most stacked D ever. Returning 8/11 on that side of the ball. A defense, that despite national perspective, finished as the #1 scoring D in Big 12 play and lead the country in turnovers. The offense will definitely need to grow at QB and WR, but a veteran OL & stable of RBs should help ease the growing pains. View Post \| View Thread	rated91	25	July 15, 2012 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Can a team be good enough to not practice for an opponent? in College Football In OSU's defense, Tulsa backed out of their return trip for 2012 and rescheduled it for 2016. I didn't mean to sound smug with this thread, but Savannah State is definitely not an Appalachian State quality of Div 2 team. Will they actually release a line for Savannah State @ OSU? I was more interested in how it should effect OSU @ Arizona, with such a light scrimmage before a real game to start the season.

replied to Can a team be good enough to not practice for an opponent? in College Football Just noticed how light Florida State's schedule is as well. Guess I should expect the same result with Wake Forest @ FSU in week 3, if I follow my logic. View Post \| View Thread	PokeU	25	July 10, 2012 View Post \| View Thread
created a topic Can a team be good enough to not practice for an opponent? in College Football I ask because of Oklahoma State @ Arizona in week 2. OSU starts the season off with absolute cream-puff Savannah State, who has won 2 games in the past 2 years of Div 2 (or whatever) football. Check their schedule here: https://www.ssuathletics.com/schedule.aspx?path=football&schedule=35 They usually get shellacked as well. So I wonder, will OSU even practice/prepare film/worry about Savannah State much at all? Or will they prepare straight for their first real game @Arizona. Zona starts Week 1 against a pretty froggy Toledo squad that will no doubt have their new coaching staffs attention over the summer. Am I being a homer here or does this really bode well for the Pokes? OSU vs Arizona brings good name value and I imagine the spread will be a bit smaller than it should be. I'd at least like OSU in the first half and possibly the under on the total. Calling this in July: Pokes 37 Wildcats 17 Okay, my fun is over. Thoughts on this jazz? Thanks in advance for reading.

replied to Oklahoma under 9.5 wins in College Football You got a 50/50 shot IMO It's either 9 or 10 for OU. Their schedule is tough. The D has been overrated for a while now. Landry isn't the leader they've had in the past. Last year seemingly the wheels fell off for OU. Their bowl game was a complete snoozefest and lots of rabble was coming out about a team in turmoil. We'll see how corrected they get it this year. The preseason BCS title picks just come to be expected. I think you have a decent chance with the bet.

replied to Will 5 Dimes release a WIN Total for OKLAHOMA ST. ???? in College Football OSU totals, without bowl games 2006: 6-6 2007: 6-6 2008: 9-3 <<<<insert DC Bill Young>>>> 2009: 9-3 (Dez suspension, multiple injuries) 2010: 10-2 2011: 11-1 The offense has been top 15 nationally since year 2 of Gundy and I suspect little will change as long as we retain Wickline as OL coach. Our line has been the glue offensively throughout this ride. 2009 was notable, because Dez was suspended after the first game against UGA. We also lost starter Kendall Hunter early that year at RB. Zac Robinson was still able to muster out 9 wins with a squad depleted of star power. I also noted that 2009 was the first year of DC Bill Young. Since his arrival, there has been a notable change in our D. Most nationally will mock OSU's (and the Big 12's) lack of defense the past few years, but it's easy to see how Bill Young has improved the culture at OSU. We give up yards, but hit hard, play outstanding redzone D and get turnovers. Gundy admitted that 2012 will be the best D he has ever fielded in his ternure. I do realize we have some rebuilding to do, mainly at QB, WR, and DE. But I couldn't see this squad losing more than 4 games. I like them to 9-3. WVU, @KSU, @OU. Road warriors: Since 2009, OSU has lost 2 road games. 4 if you count 2008. /orange glasses View Post \| View Thread	DoubleUp4Life	21	June 30, 2012 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Will 5 Dimes release a WIN Total for OKLAHOMA ST. ???? in College Football 6-0 to start looks pretty do-able to me. OSU and Texas both have a week off before their huge meeting in Stillwater. Guess it all hinges on how the frosh QB looks. (He out performed our other young elite 11 qb and returning JR Chelf who has a career 69.4 completion percentage in mop up duty.)

replied to Will 5 Dimes release a WIN Total for OKLAHOMA ST. ???? in College Football I wish I were capable enough to go back a few more years, but Vegas consistently has put us low on the Regular season line spreads. I know for a fact we've covered the last 2 years in a row. Wish I could further back. I know in 2010 they had us at 6 wins, and some as low as 5.5. We won 10 games that year.
