28 Carries.

169 Yards.

6.0 ypc.

 

Against one of the best defensive fronts we will face all year.

 

I know this isn't as intriguing as calling for Cody Green or ranting about O'Hanlon . . . but wow. What a game.

 

Best game of His Career. Roy will Keep us in some game's this year as will the Defense Lee wil learn from his mistake's. I still think this team will Have a great season. 10 wins is still very possible, Yes it will be Difficult to get 10 win's but i still think it is possible

Helu had a monster game.

 

Helu was beasting out there, which shows we had decent run blocking. I hope he stays for next year, but can't definitely understand if he decides to leave for the pros. I honestly think he could have been a lot better if we had a viable #2 running back. Burkhead may be it someday but there is a huge gap in between him and Helu.

OU didn't get lots of points vs BYU or Florida in the bowl and the same goes for UT in their bowl vs a great defense. They don't score big points vs great defenses!

 

Very true and a good point. Based on the VT game, remembering that VT was held to 155 yards by Alabama and only beat up on a suspect Marshall team--is it your contention that we have a great defense?

 

If so then of course we won't have to score as many points. If we were playing OU yesterday with or without Bradford I think we would have lost big. I fear to a lessor extent the same thing for TT and KU and Misery.

 

In the big 12 we will not have a dominant defense against the south teams or KU or MU in the norht that can shut them down. Most will agree we have to score a lot of points to be successful in the Big 12. I agree with that.

 

Our most important need is to be able to score and score a lot against league defense. Offensive improvement is essential.

I disagree. OU lost to BYU, who many thought was going to be a BCS buster. BYU got throttled by FSU...a team many think isn't as good as they show. OU's O-line is still very suspect right now. They've beat up on two low-level teams and when pressured by a mid-tier team, they lost. OU is not the dominant force people thought they were going to be.

 

I think our D is one of the best in the Conference right now. Barring a complete and utter meltdown by the players after this loss, they're going to rebound and play with some intensity.
