FootballScoop writer on blOU possible gameplan vs Texas...
Speaking of the actual game. After OU survived Auburn on Sept. 20 I joked that Venables would spend the next three weeks concocting a game plan to confuse and harass Arch Manning that was so diabolical it could be classified as an act of terrorism. And Venables may very well do that, but I no longer view that as necessary.
If you're Oklahoma, I think you play this game as vanilla as vanilla gets. OU leads the nation in TFLs and sacks per game. They're first on third down. Texas is 116th on third down, and Florida ran through their offensive line like 4-day-old chili. Sark and/or Arch have been unwilling and/or unable to engage in the short and intermediate passing game, a hallmark of the Ewers offense.
Play Cover 3, let your defensive tackles obliterate the interior of the Texas O-line, wait for the Longhorns to give the ball back to you by punt or turnover, and win the game 24-10.
