With only 18 Bedlam wins ever, Pokes still ‘little bro’

by

I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome of the Kansas State game. I really thought the Sooners would be hard pressed to pull that one out.

Trevor Knight has progressed nicely since the beginning of the season and might be the Sooner quarterback for the foreseeable future. The offense was steady and the ground game continued it’s torrid pace under Knight’s direction.

Dave’s Worry Meter

Not all was rosy though, as the defense continually let Lockett burn them again and again. In fact Lockett almost single handedly kept this game close to the very end. Without him, OU would have won in a blowout.

However, anytime you walk out of Manhattan on the right side of the scoreboard is a good day no matter the margin of victory.

Which brings us to Bedlam in stillwater against little brother.

mike gundy goes for career win number 2 against the Sooners Saturday morning. And if he gets it, that will bring his record against OU to a whooping 2 wins and 11 losses as a player and head coach.

Nice job there mike.

Not sure if Knight is the long term answer, but it’s his turn at bat

by

Well, you’re up Mr. Knight. And what will you be performing for us today?

After waiting in the wings since he was injured during the Tulsa game, the Knight Rider took the field, again after an injury, to spark the Sooners to victory over hapless Iowa St.

Not sure if Knight is the long term answer, but it seemed like he gave the offense a spark that it needed at least for that day. And as if to muddle the quarterback derby even more, Kendall Thompson came in for mop up duty and directed a touchdown drive that included a 44 yard completion and a touchdown pass.

Everyone should take this with a grain of salt though as Iowa St. was beaten down by then and just wanted to go home. Also, that aforementioned 44 yard pass was under thrown with the wind at his back.

Team getting worse, no more excuses for Sooners

by

Several things came to mind while watching the debacle in Waco last Thursday night.

Foremost was what a waste of a spectacular defensive effort. I know it sounds strange to say that when Baylor scored 41 points. But I am convinced that if the Sooner offense had even remotely put up some sort of fight in that game, Baylor probably only scores in the twenties and OU has a great chance to win.

As it was, the offense was spectacularly inept. At this point in the season a performance like that is just mind boggling. This team has no offensive identity whatsoever. And there is plenty of blame to go around but it has to start at the top.

Bob Stoops has to be the one to answer for this. I know everyone is bashing Bell and Heupel, but ultimately I believe they are doing their jobs to the best of their ability. And if this is the best they can do, then Stoops has to make a change.

Does anyone bashing Bell and Heupel really think that those two guys are going to come out and say “Hey, I realize I’m not getting the job done so I’m going to step down for the the good of the team.” ? No.
