OSU game
« on: November 01, 2011, 09:30:50 AM »
So, first off.  It really sucks that our game is during the same time as the "game of the century".  Guess I'll have to hook up both TV's in the living room so I can watch both.

That being said, do you think OSU beats the spread for this game?

Personally, I think OSU probably won't beat the spread, but it will be a double digit win.  I think KSU controls the clock too much for the big numbers to go up, and I don't think OSU can stop the running game easily.

Thoughts? ???

Well, when we got behind by 2+ td's, we HAD to throw against OU, just part of giving yourself a chance to catch up.  With an OSU offense on the other side, sticking to a run (like we did with Baylor and Tech) trying to make the comeback wont yield the same results.  As the score showed, we could not throw, though I will give part of that to OU's defense being one of the top in the nation. 

From other results, we were able to throw against the other teams when needed.  So.... stats show that OSU's def isn't nearly as good as OU's, but is prob better then most of the other teams, add in the reason Snyder is on the sideline (scheme and frustrate the other team), I say we have 3 solid quarters vs 2 against OU vs 4 against the other teams we played.  That mixed around with the fact that OSU's offensive line will look goofy compared to OU's, we could get the pressure needed to get a turnover or two, though... OSU I think at home will be able to use the noise and pull a couple to only yield a +1 turnover margin for KSU. 

That all being said, I think we lose by 17.

I think Snyder will put a clown suit on Gundy and show him that he is a Grandpa and he is 72.

Lynch, are you saying Gundy's hair is going to lay flat by the end of the game?  This could be epic..

I actually have a better feeling for this game than last week.  We may pull out a big upset.

3ears could you tell me what has you more confident? I am looking at everything right now and just missing how we are going to stop their passing attack.
