I wouldn't be upset at all if it ended OU 35-TU 21........but I'm afraid it will be more like 42-14 or worse!!! I just don't see TU running the ball at all.....which leaves Dane a real big target back there and makes the passing game suspect too!!! To save Dane's life, I hope we have a lot of roll out passes in the offensive scheme.
My best guess is that the game will go the same way our NM game went, 40-21. So I'll predict:
OU - 40
TU - 21
BTW, the one thing we've done well so far this year is finish strong. We haven't pooped out at the end like years past. We need to do that again and I'll be interested to see if we do.
Hopefully we will finish strong....because in many cases that's when teams get humiliated against better competition.......the score might be respectable in the third quarter....like 24-13 but then in the 4th quarter, the other team scores 21-28 points and it looks like a blow out in the paper 45-13 or worse.
I'll take a guess at a final score: OU 38 - TU 24
If we score more points than that and hold OU to less than 38 or keep it closer than 14 points I'll consider it a good moral victory.
