OSU was unranked in the AP and Coaches polls.
Of course, they want Bedlam to be two ranked opponents
Hope you guys can all clam down we are ranked
This is the most interesting polls ive remembered. Lot of different takes on the position.
If we beat OU, they have to rank us ahead of KU.
OU should drop significantly with such a loss. I keep getting the number 68 flashing in my mind whenever I think about the game. As if part of me thinks OU is going to put up 68 pts. I think our 3-5 defense plus young secondary is very weak against a talented team. I think Bowman gets intercepted. If we don’t score first, it could go downhill quickly.
Given the scandal(s) at Michigan, should they be ranked?
OSU SHOULD brimming with confidence. OU SHOULD be unsure. Let’s hope that holds. I too am uncomfortable with the secondary. A few games ago I had made peace with the reality that ou was going to kick us around the field mercilessly. Now I have hope we could win or maybe even do the kicking…. Isn’t it weird that I both love and hate that??
It’s the hope that kills you.
I had no hope 4 weeks ago and didn’t care about bedlam. Now I’m ready to be hurt again.
