Mr. P

How in the #### do you get such crisp photos under those dim lights at Roy Stadium? Please, share your camera settings. Because ain't no way in Hades you are getting zero motion-blur on "Auto."

Well, based on what I've seen on Maxpreps, Overton should do just fine.

Should get plenty of playing time for your backups.

Why is that? MC seems more than capable.

Georgia Tech Texas Cincinnati Navy Georgia Indiana Colorado Vanderbilt Louisiana State Missouri *Tiebreaker = 50 points

Whoa, I'm above .500! Yesssss!!!

Not sure how legit this account is, but I was told he correctly predicted 2020. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Let me put your mind at ease: it was just Maine. Mizzou wins, and I bet they'll try to run up the score.

Pennsylvania State Duke Ole Miss Iowa State Central Florida Oklahoma State Texas A&M Southern Methodist Baylor Iowa *Tiebreaker = 30 points

That's fair, and I think OU fans would probably take this more into consider... except for the fact that our offense have been woefully lacking regardless of the opponent. It's been especially galling for us to have actually be in the game against SEC opponents, only to piss away our chances because we can't pick up a couple field goals, or even friggin' first down just to give our defense a chance to breathe. Sorry but, injuries and inexperience aside, we struggled offensively against Tulane, Houston, and Temple. This is unacceptable. Our 4th stringers should be able to skulldrag Temple's starters. That is the standard. Anything less than a 50-point shellacking of Maine and BV's seat will go from "hot" to nuclear, and I'll be happy to fan those flames.

Certainly. Winning changes the arithmetic of every career... but we're not 6-2. We're not even close. And our losses are compounded by the poor offensive production and the optics poor depth chart management. Look, if our offense had been philosophically dynamic and aggressive, and we were losing games because of JA throwing picks and/or TT fumbling the ball, Brent would not have near the negative optics. But what happened? Not only did our offense not produce results, but it doesn't even appear to be trying to produce. That's what lost Seth Littrell the fanbase. Running inside power but without the power? Running timing routes with a rookie QB and a backup WRs who haven't had near the reps? Calling long-developing *play-action* passes in long-yardage situations? Just friggin amateurish playcalling. That, combined with the fact that Seth did not exactly have the most glowing resume coming in, it has created the perception that BV can't manage the program. Whether it's actually true or not, that's the perception... ...and it's the kind of perception that head coaches can't afford in a time where coaches like Elko and Cigretti are winning in Year 1.

Exactly. I think he's a brilliant defensive coordinator and a helluva recruiter. But he's not great at game management or free agent acquisitions. OU is not the place for him to figure it out.

Basically you're talking about personnel management. The future of college football is going to belong to people who can recruit both in the present (transfer portal) and the future (high school stars). BV has shown the ability to do that latter but not the former. It sucks that it's the way it has to go down, but it ain't show-friends it's show-business.

Reportedly a few of the BMDs were slow to open up the checkbooks because of an outmoded philosophy of, "We ain't gonna chase all the high-doller stars! The right ones will come here just because we're OU!" Totally not understanding that the ground has shifted under their feet. I totally agree that the right O.C. hire could turn it around. Unfortunately, I lack your faith in B.V. Venables appears to be the latest prominent example of the "Peter Principle" and the role of HC is just one step above his expertise. Maybe he'll upgrade at some point in his career, but he's just not there yet. I don't want OU to continue to be part of his education.

Congrats and long overdue!

Notre Dame Indiana Mississippi Virginia Tech Texas Tech Oregon Alabama Texas Arizona Louisiana State *Tiebreaker: 9 points

Ah, gotcha. And no offense taken! I was just making sure that I wasn't crazy.

Meh... I'm on board with this. The season is a total loss. JA is probably gonna portal out. Might as well get our money's worth out of him.

Uhhhhh... am I reading this right? @Lobo97, the tiebreaker question is how many points OU will score against Ole Miss, correct? Not the points Ole Miss will score. These predictions seem... optimistic?

My heart says Navy, but my head says Notre Dame. Ole Miss gonna take out some frustration on OU. Only one of these teams is for real. Trap game? If Alabama doesn't win this, heads will roll. Trap game for UT, they better play four quarters. Home field is worth 10+ points easily... so give me the Tigahs by 6. Big XII after dark. Must-see TV.

Legendary. The dude has mastered McConaughey's rambling, stream-of-consciousness digressions:

If Army-Navy is played by two undefeated teams, I am buying a ticket and flying out to watch this one in person. I am absolutely serious.
