Ok guys.... I'm 18-7 in the bowl games.... and it all come down to the Championship game. I notice a lot of people are on Florida. I have studied long and hard on this game..... and my pick for this game is......
OKLAHOMA +4
As much as I want to ride the Florida bandwagon with you guys I just cant. My ONLY worry in this game is that Oklahoma has not prepared for Percy Harvin. The zone type defense that OU runs will provide mismatches for Harvin. HOWEVER...... I'm confident that Stoops.... with plenty of time to prepare.... will have a plan for him.
I'm going to try to keep this short so I'm not going into all of the reasons I like OU but I'll talk about some....
The main reason I am taking OU is because of their offense. They are the 1st team to score 60+ points in 5 straight games. Their offense is on a roll! I know I know..... all of you Big 12 bashers will say that the Big 12 sucks and that ANYONE could do that. But come on..... NOBODY could score 60+ points in a row..... not even Florida.
Looking at Florida this year..... let's just look at scores.....
They beat Miami 26-3 (it was 9-3 at the half)
They beat a BAD Tenn team (30-6)
They LOST to Miss 30-31
Ok so far not really impressive to me.....
They got better after the Miss loss....
In the SEC Champ game they went back and forth with Alabama and were actually down 20-17 after 3 Quarters. Florida scored 14 in the 4th to win by 11.
Utah scored 31 against Alabama..... just like Florida.
I know you cant compare scores.... and I know Florida would kill Utah.
But my point is this.... I think OU has a CHANCE to win this game. OU is better than Alabama (who was beating Florida after 3 quarters) OUs offense vs Alabamas offense is far superior!
I think we are in for an excellent game. I think this game will be back and forth all night and whoever has the ball last wins. Getting 4 OU doesnt have to win....... they just have to be in the game.
My prediction is OU 45 Florida 42
