Do we get the monkey off our back?

I just don't think OU will be as good as in prior years. Yeah, Bradford and the RBs put up big numbers. But look at the o-line they had. How often was Bradford pressured? How big were the holes the RBs ran through?

There were two games in which Bradford was heavily pressured last year - Florida and Texas - and well, you know the outcome of those games. Sure, Oklahoma still scored its share of points against Texas, but the Texas secondary just wasn't "there" yet.

I'm not saying we are for sure going to win against Oklahoma - and we will certainly have to bring our A+ game - but I am simply saying the game against VT is early and is in a tough environment to play in. Oklahoma is at home and later on in the season.

I like our chances against Oklahoma better.

What are you willing to bet on the game?

I make my choices by what I am willing to invest in a game.

Not making a bet just stating how I decide whether they will win or lose.

There is always a chance of anything happening.

But looking at each team, measuring talent, history of our on the road win loss record. Playing 3 very good defensive teams with a unproven QB, unproven LB's, would I bet 1000.00 dollars on Nebraska winning. That is the line where it becomes a real choice. Not a chance I would do that. 10.00 bucks sure, but that does not mean you truly believe there is a chance. It means you can afford to be wrong.

The question is this year, in my mind currently there is not a chance of it happening. Could it yes. Will it?

I do not make my choice by love of Nebraska, I look at it realisticly and make my choice. Sometimes not popular, but I am right way way more than I am wrong.

Kansas was my only mistake last year.
