    K1, you have a concern about Baylor's defense. Playing devils advocate...I have a concern about Oklahoma's passing offense. (IF) the Bears shut down the Sooner's running game, relying on a pass offense that barely ranks in the top 100 is cause for concern...at least to me.

    I respect your thoughts and apprecite the post sir.
    I appreciate all the input men.....you have made this thread worthwhile.

He uses a lot of the footballoutsiders metrics but it was well done. my personal opinion is that the one question mark is the baylor defense. Are they much improved from last year? Still hard to tell. The baylor offense will get their points guranteed, its just the defense that is suspect if they can hold oklahoma down at all.

        That was an interesting break-down on the link you posted. Good stuff, thanks.

        I like Baylor quite a bit here. Obviously their best defense is offense. If they can get up on the scoreboard , Sooners will have to pass.

        I like how he showed the vulnerabity of Sooner D in the middle. Strongly agree. That Texas game is still fresh in my mind and the Horns hooked them hard in the Red River. i was somewhat surprised when I thought the Sooner D hung it up in that game. Horns repeatedly punched them in the mouth and rolled them in that big rivalry.

        I like the size of Baylor O Line and how they match up. Run will set up the pass. Baylor will gash them and Sooner secondary will slowly start creeping up and cheat. The coaches box will be watching and then they will strike deep. Or, Baylor strikes deep and then they gash them, take your pick. My only concern is whether the Bears can minimize Sooner Rush attack. It will all hinge on that. If they can jump out to a lead, well, that would help. Waco should be rocking. I throw out older history. Bears had some real rough years a decade or so ago.

        The winner will have to bring their A game to win or cover. I watched that Sooner D quit once this season, just can't trust them. No way you can say they were caught off guard or by surprise. They were exposed and quit. Baylor schedule ytd is very questionable, but kids can only play who they schedule. Baylor will come to play and very tough at home of late.

        Betting Baylor and hoping to see a win here by 17 or so.

        gl with your pk.

          [QUOTE=

          Bears average 70.6 points per game at home. I dont see them hitting the average but they could light up the scoreboard and cause OU to try and press the passing game which happens to be their weakness.

          the scoreboard won't get lit up, it will get fukkin fried along with a green screen of death

                  Went with the under in the Baylor/OKU game got 74 wager 50/risking 55 and went with the over in Ducks/Cardinals game got 61.5 wager 50/risking 55. Now I have some thing to root for. A good night would be Baylor 42/ OKU 30 and Ducks 42/ Cards 27. Need OKU no turnovers and grind it out on ground. Oregon and Stanford, score, score and score some more!
