Florida LB trashes Oklahoma ahead of Cotton Bowl I don’t usually pull for the “enemy” but if Florida wins, Aggie will be insufferable since they beat the Gators. Not to mention, “SEC! SEC!” I hate OU but I hope they mud hole Florida.
Big 12 pride on the line, you know, we don't play defense.....Florida looks salty but I think OU shows up....
Salty ? Hell Florida hasn't played defense for years. Look at their stats. OU will hang about 50 on them. Florida gave up 52 to Bama, 37 to LSU, 35 to Arky, 41 to Aggy, and 35 to Ole Miss. The question is will OU be able to put pressure on their QB...If so OU will win by 14+.
I have cheered for OU twice in my life, in 2003 when we needed them to beat K-State in the Big XII title game so Texas would go to the Fiesta Bowl, they choked away that game, then again in 2008 when we needed them to beat Tech to help win the south division and we all know what came from that. So lifelong rule ever since, never cheer for OU PERIOD.....PERIOD.
maybe salty wasn't correct. SEC athletes on offense/defense. It'll be interesting to see how this matchup plays out. Hope covid affects neither team so the fist fight will be real.
until we can beat them, they're our rep in the big show, and it is perhaps true that OU winning against Florida will maintain street cred for the Big 12 in future recruits eyes....
Maybe so, but these bowl matchups will maybe show the proof in the pudding as it were so it shall be etc etc etc.
I'm probably in the minority, but I find it much easier to accept OU than I do a&m. To me, a lot of it depends on how we performed against them when your blood was turning orange. In my case, we had a lot of success against the Sooners in my youth and especially when I was at UT, while the farmers had a pretty salty level of success against us. That, plus I'm married to a Sooner who attends our home games with me, wearing burnt orange, and cheers for the Horns in every game except the second Saturday in October. All my in-laws, who are some of the most amazing people on this planet, do the same. Don't get me wrong, I don't cheer for OU, but while I can watch them win without getting upset, I hope the sheep lovers lose every game and their school burns to the ground. OU 48 Florida 31
Big 12 can help themselves in the bowl games for sure after the embarrassing losses to Sun Belt teams this year. Get wins over Oregon, Florida by the top 2 teams then beat the SEC bottom dwellers.
So, if OU beats Florida, why does anyone here think that anyone else across the country will sit and ponder how allsome the Big XII is? After OU has won it 6 times in a row. All our Big XII are belong to OU.
If in doubt, fall back on the old axiom: Nothing good.... No way I can pull for ou, unless it somehow directly helps the Horns.
A certain sec sec sec "powerhouse" talked this kind of trash two years ago and then almost had their 30 lb. mascot mudholed by a 1200 lb. steer. It went downhill for them from there. Florida shouldn't let any live gators on the field while that covered wagon is out there. That could be ugly.
As much as I like this as bulletin board material for the Sooners, LSU players said similar things last year and we all saw how that played out.
