If they lose, it'll be next week (Nebraska). Rest of their schedule isn't worth a damn.
Plus the Big-12 championship game.

Nebraska will beat them next week. I have little doubt about it.dlazz;530287 wrote:If they lose, it'll be next week (Nebraska). Rest of their schedule isn't worth a damn.

This is the third straight week that the #1 team in the country is playing a ranked opponent on the road with College GameDay there. And the second straight week that the home team has returned the opening kickoff for a TD. With all of that working against them I don't see how Oklahoma could possibly win this game.
Be careful that you don't leave a handprint on your back.krambman;530302 wrote:Allow me to quote myself from earlier in the game.

But the offense would also know that they're only up one possession/score so they're not as risky/loose as they are with a 2 score lead. Lots to think about there.athlete37;530301 wrote:And the theory is that you have a play saved for the two-point conversion, so it should work the same whether it's now or after the next touchdown, but it helps to know now whether you need two more scores or one.

I find it very shocking that you didn't chime in on the ND/Navy thread with your prediction before the game started. If it was so easy, I'm sure a dolt like you would have chimed in.newarkcatholicfan;530314 wrote:Not a shock here this one was as easy to pick as the Navy game.
