I can usually make myself worry about any opponent by Friday morning. I was worried about Baylor and Kansas this year.
If we cannot beat Okie State, who is basically a 6-6 team masked by some good coaching in close games, then we just are never going to win any kind of trophy with Sark. This game should be Texas by 21 given the matchups. Just play press man and turn over their shitty QB.
I also don't think Gordon is 100 percent. He limps around a lot. He is not as explosive as he was when he was racking up 250+ yard game. His backup is a JAG. I think Gordon was overused the last 8 games and they are paying for it. He is a stud. But 30 to 35 touches a game adds up. He really has not looked the same since OU game. And his YPC shows that -- last 4 games -- 4.2, 2.1, 6.6, and 4.9. And that was against OU, UCF, UH, and BYU -- not exactly murderer's row.
The 5 games before that he was 10.8, 9.7, 5.5, 6.5, 6.8 -- that was against better defenses in ISU, KSU, KU, WVU, and Cinci
