Oklahoma State an Early Nine-Point Favorite over Arkansas

Originally published at: https://pistolsfiringblog.com/oklahoma-state-an-early-nine-point-favorite-over-arkansas/

The Cowboys and Razorbacks are both coming off big FCS wins.

This will probably drop down to seven.

34-31 Hogs in OT.

Hey champ, since you short changed us by three scores last week, should I expect we win by two TDs? I’m trying to figure out your curve.

Just curious to how many years you are willing to go without winning the conference? We know you are willing to go 12, how about 20? 25? More?
How many conference championships should Kansas get to win before Gundy wins a second.

Weird….I didn’t see you make a prediction for the first game. Tell me what you think?

Hey champ, who was even talking about that? Are you ok? Do we need to call you an Uber?

Hey champ, if you don’t make predictions, you don’t look like a clown when you’re completely wrong.

Beside the 3 way tie you have waited longer than 12 years prior to 2011

Hey Champ,

If you don’t make a prediction. Then don’t come here giving hell to people that do. It means you’re scared.

Another game where OSU, if they are really CFP bound, should win by double digits. But I really don’t know about Ark. New offensive system that lit up a BAD FCS team. As an OSU fan, I’ll likely take OSU and lay the points, but if I wasn’t an OSU fan, I wouldn’t be touching this game.

I find it interesting that the OSU spread against Arkansas and the spread against SDSU is virtually the same. I do expect the spread to come down to 7.5 by kickoff, so if you’re betting on the Pokes, wait till Saturday.

Hey champ, it’s better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. You’ve removed all doubt.

You constantly undervalue the team and pick against it and get proven wrong more often than not, then try to take a victory lap the one time out of ten that you’re right or pick some lofty goal that we won’t achieve and act like it was prescient to say so.

I think we’ll be all right against Arkansas, but we’ve played exactly one game. Why would I blow smoke like I know something? There are no guarantees, just possibilities.

Admit you’re scared :man_shrugging:.

Did you forget who our OC is? And do you think 3.3 yards per rush is something Arkansas couldn’t hold us to? I hope I’m wrong, but I’m not wrong when I say the last few years we haven’t looked very good at all in the first three games of the season. Unless we’re playing Arkansas Pine-Bluff or something.

Hey champ,

Scared of what, exactly? That I would look as ignorant as you did predicting a squeaker? And now you’re blustering to everyone about how it was only an FCS team? It was an FCS team you thought we’d barely beat, so you either thought they were good or you thought we sucked. You’re out both sides of your mouth, and it’s ridiculous. Yeah, I guess I am scared of looking that bad.

I love my mama; don’t want to embarrass her like that.

They would be one of the lower tier teams of the conference. That’s about how good I thought they were :+1:.

So be a puss instead of being bold? Thanks for letting us know where you stand Champ :+1:.

Well for @bill18 there is no thought to it. He is a troll and WANT’s us to be bad and get our ass handed to us. His predictions are not based on facts but instead based on his desire for us to fail. He want’s Gundy to be gone hoping to get rid of a hall of fame coach and regulate OSU to a b12 bottom feeder and perhaps to div I FCS or even div II.

Hey champ,

Being bold about something you don’t know anything about (which you made obvious by saying we’d squeak by last week) isn’t called being bold, it’s called talking out of your butt. I try to keep butt explosions to the minimum since I graduated to big kid underpants.

When you get there, let me know. I’ll give you an M&M, any color you want.

Nah, it’s called being scared. Too scared to be wrong. Even though you’ve probably been before. Real men admit when they’re wrong. Looks like you have a lot more to learn about being a man.

I didn’t ask for us to get pounded 33-7 by South Bama last year. In fact, I picked us to win by three. Does that sound like someone that wants us to be bad? I just think Arkansas is going to win this game in a close one. If I’m wrong then that’s cool.

I want us to win the conference and make the CFP. While everyone else on here admittedly says all they care about is having a winning record. So who truly wants who to be bad?

Unlike most, I’ve learned my lesson in the non-conference the last three years or so not to expect a grand performance. So why should I have expected a 24 point win this past weekend?

What are you talking about? Who says OSU will be a bottom feeder if Gundy leaves? Baylor and K State have both proven they can become bottom feeders and still turn it around to win the conference. We seem to be one of the few programs in the country that can consistently win, but not our own conference.

Hey champ,

If you’re going to say that real men admit when they’re wrong, your very next post probably shouldn’t be yet another attempt to make excuses for your bad week 1 pick. You’ve yet to “admit you were wrong” and take ownership for being a hater that you were rightly called out for.

Predictions are really just hopes tinted with your confidence. You think we’re better than Arkansas, but you hope we lose, so you’re calling for a close loss. However, I seriously doubt you follow Arkansas as closely as OSU, so you really only have one side of the equation and your prediction is just a wild stab in the dark where we stumble.

Don’t be such a troll, champ.
