Oklahoma Sooners (official thread)

[1926Buckeyes]

Oklahoma has allowed 40 or more points 4 times, the last 3 coming after they shit canned Stoops.

They've been more consistent on offense than OSU, but for some reason they seem to get a pass for the lack of defense.

Giving up 40 points to Kansas is hilarious. That's like giving up 40 to Rutgers.

Indeed Ohio State clearly was punished in both pools for giving up 51 and going to the last play with Maryland. While Oklahoma has yet to be punished for their D almost losing them the game vs Oklahoma state and giving up 40 to hapless Kansas.

...or 51 to Maryland......

Hey at least Maryland beat Rutgers by 4 TDs!

They have been more consistent on O and have a more defendable loss where we have a flat out mulligan. If both teams win out I fully expect the committee will view OK as a safer pick and give them the nod.

30.7 PPG and 426 yards per game allowed.

Good for 80th in PPG allowed (Ohio State is 52nd) and 88th in yards allowed (Ohio State is 70th)

Our defense is terrible but theirs is quite a bit worse statistically. And yes the pundits (and CFP committee) are seemingly giving them a pass for it, while bashing us at the same time.

That seemed like a good analogy. Until I remembered that Kansas actually beat Rutgers by MORE THAN 40 on Sept. 15th this season, 55-14 in Lawrence.

What about 49 to mighty 6-6 Purdue???

 

[MaxBuck]

What about 49 to mighty 6-6 Purdue???

Not our finest moment, admittedly.

With that said, Ohio State S&P+ on defense: 38
Oklahoma S&P+ on defense: 77

Smaller is better here.

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

What about 49 to mighty 6-6 Purdue???

Yeah....but 7 if those were on a pick-6, so it's really only 42 which is like waaaaay better.

Okay. But never mind that OU allowed 27 points to TCU while you gave up 28. OU also won by 25 while you won by 12.
