OSU looked horrible all game long, and as far as that defense goes, they were not as good as advertised. I watched this whole game, and realized that as many accolades as James Laurinaitis gets, he missed a lot of open-field tackles.
After laying out Theo Scott early, back-up quarterback Boo Jackson repeatedly escaped the pocket and showed what the Ohio State defense lacks, and that's complete athleticism all around the field.
Against USC and other potential opponents, that will be a problem.
Oklahoma
I hate to say it, but as a Longhorns fan, I fear the Sooners. Sam Bradford was my sleeper for a Heisman run, and he backed up my hype with his performance last night against Cincy.
I think that this year's Red River Shootout will be great, one of the best games this year, but I wonder what scheme Will Muschamp will come up with to slow down this offense.
DeMarco Murray just reminds me so much of Adrian Peterson, and we see what he does on a weekly basis. I mean, this OU team looks like it hits the field saying any team that opposes us has hell to pay.
They have been a disappointment in the last four BCS games that they have appeared in, and Bob Stoops has seemingly said enough is enough. I just cannot hold my impatience for the Red River Shootout!
Overall, some of the games were highly entertaining. I think once some more of these non-conference match-ups come out, we will have a lot to discuss. Until then, people have some hype to live up to, or falter like Clemson.(HAHA, Tommy Bowden)
We're going to send you the most entertaining Oklahoma Sooners Football articles, videos, and podcasts from around the web.
