GoSooners Bowl Season Thread With "Running Dogs"!

[ToothedTeddy]

GS, what is the deal w/ Oklahoma State not being able to close games? Is it me or is this they way that have always been? I didn't start watching them until the inception of the Big 12, and since then, they've given up more halftime leads than any team I've ever watched. They've lost 4 halftime leads to Texas alone in the last few years. Has this always been a problem for Okie Lite?

oregon offense didn't show up til halftime, that's all

Western Michigan is really playing bad. They look very out of sync on offense. Receivers are dropping easy passes. Their making Rice's defense look a hell of a lot better than they really are.

Cubit has done a great job turning WMU around but it seems like EVERY big game that they have, the offense never gets in sync and their D is just bad year after year. I watched the Illinois game and Juice basically gave them the game. That being said I was on WMU on a teaser thinking the offense could hang enough points on Rice to hang around....what an embarrassment :sad3:

Very baffling. I don't know if it's just the MAC in general that is down, or just these individual teams who aren't showing up in these bowls.

I think Oregon has something to do with it.

It's not just Oregon. The amount of games Gundy's teams have blown the lead going into the 4th quarter is absolutely astonishing.

Winner on Oregon.. what a game. Like we expected, had everything to do with Masoli. Not a good first half, so they trailed by 10. Ridiculous second half, and Oregon took it and ran away with it.

It was a ball sweater for about 55 minutes..But Masoli was the difference in that second half. I think OSU's defense started getting tired very early in that third quarter. Much like what happened against OU and Texas Tech. It's cost them some games over the last couple of years. When Gundy starts recruiting some depth there they will be very tough to handle.

Oregon really had to play physical to win and they did. The hits on Robinson def. began to take their toll later on in the game. Of course the Dez Bryant injury helped as well.

Adding anything for tomorrow or are you calling it a season for now?

 

[jblonghorn]

Okay, maybe I was wrong....maybe the Big 12's defenses really do suck?

 

[UoweDucks]

Big 12 is still SOOOO underrated. Especially the south. They will begin exposing people tonight. You better get all your money down on Texas (easiest money of the year) and OU (if you like them, I think they get mudholed) prior to this game ending. This game will move those lines I promise.

Maybe you should cap the team and not the conference chump


:lol:

BOL to you tomorrow:toast:

 

[GoSooners]

I like army tomorrow, what do u think sooners?

I'm assuming your talking about Air Force..The AF/Houston game is the hardest game on the board tomorrow. So I don't know if I'll be playing it. Right now the leans I have are with Pitt +2 and Ga Tech -4. I might possibly play GT on the moneyline to be on the safe side. The line movement will determin how strong I play them. But that's about it for now.

 

[tunit213]

Sorry, I meant airforce lol. No prob, will be checking tomorrow buddy.

 

[AlwaysKeen]

[GoSooners]
