Thoughts on Clemson and Oklahoma game

[champions77]

I'm getting the sense that OU is mad not to play Bama in the semi finals. It seems to me they are kind of overlooking Clemson a bit. kind of like what FSU did last year. I work in Tallahassee and got a lot of flak from FSU fans down here because they had to play Oregon not Bama in the Semi's. watching the bowl game between OU and Clemson last year you would think they would take Clemson a little more serious. if OU doesn't have their mind right, Clemson will boat race them. again.

Believe me OU is not overlooking Clemson, certainly not after the 40-6 beat down of last year. Clemson was the team OU wanted first according to one of my customers, whose grandson is a starting linebacker on the team. Huge psychological advantage for the Sooners in this one.

I think Clemson wins.....maybe by as much as 2 or 3 TDs.....

I think OUs QB is a head case, apparently....and Stoops, well, he's Bob Stoops.....

I like Clemson! I like Dabo and his energy in this one. Same ole suits that picked Auburn to win the west are the same ones hyping all this Okie is #1 stuff!

I might not go with Stoops again til he wins a game like this. We'll see...

Are you saying when you beat a team that doesn't have it's starting QB - it's not as credible of a win?

Of course they're not the same. If you're looking at it only in the context of W-L records, a win is a win, and they're all equal. If you're judging the strength of a team (which we are doing), not so much.

I agree. Psychologically, OU should have a huge edge in this game. That's one reason I think they'll win. It's been a while since OU and big game bob have been in this position and I think they feel they have something to prove.

My response to the thread title!

I just can't think about OU vs CU, because all my thoughts are directed in/toward the Dallas, Texas area.

Interesting - Clemson acting like they haven't been there?

Well, it is Clemson.

Lakip, who served a three-game suspension earlier this season for an offseason arrest for cocaine possession, handled kickoffs and extra points.

What the heck was this kid still doing on the team?!

 

[Jessica4Bama]

How stupid can you be? I also wonder if they win, will they be back for the final game?
