Check out my Body!

Now that I have your attention....

Seriously....

If you compare the body's of work between Okie State and the Longhorns and what they have done up to this point; its not even close.  Lets all close our eyes for a second and pretend that we are not Texas fans....PB, focus! and try to do this!

We are all taking an objective, not subjective look at the 7-0 records of both of these teams.  You , Mr make believe sportswriter/game analyst, can make the argument that Texas hasn't played anybody save Oklahoma, who still sucks.  Okie State; hasnt played anybody.  Yes Sir, you in the cheap knock off Stetson with Meth Mouth, "Well man we beat the #3 mizzorouh tigers in their back yard"!  Yes you did however those Tigers were and still are a shell of their 2007 self.  Oh, by the way, thse types of losses is what Big XII North teams get when they play real teams as opposed to the cream puff schedule they had last year. Yes Ma'am, you the attractive one in the South by Southwest t-shirt and the 'Keep Austin Weird' hat, "Well, I will remind you Sir that not only did we beat Oklahoma but we pasted those Missorouh Tigers in front of a prime time national audience." Yes you did both.....and.

Everyone calm down and let me explain.

Texas beat a very good Oklahoma team.  Everything that the Sooners threw at you was answered back until you went ahead for good on the backs of outstanding QB play and championship caliber defense.  You then turned around the next week and rode shotgun over the Tigers which did not validate you as a good team, The nation already knew that after the OU win.  What that win did was show just how good mizzou is not!

Okie state, you guys are a good ball club and will score some points on saturday and your running back(s) will rush for over 100 yeards combined, but you wont win.  You wont even be close.  Up to this point you have been able to keep teams like Houston and St Marys mother of the blind off balance because you could run and pass with effectiveness (is that a word).  I have heard on ESPN and other news outlets that Texas has never faced a team like ya'll.  Will let me say you have never faced a team like Texas.  Mr Robinson, I predict, will be throwing off of his back foot for most of the day and he will get a nice view of the Txas sky for most of the day as well.  Your EXPLOSIVE offense will become very one dimensional very fast.  Mr Dez Bryant is ging to do his best T.O. impression by throwing his helmet in frustration and mouthing in the OC's ear about getting him the ball.  He will be tired from running down the field and trying to get open but alas no ball in the Manos (Spanish for hands).

Okie State, you guys have a good football team and us sportswriters love seeing good games but you are not ready to challenge for the Big XII south much less the title.  I havent even begun to talk about the Texas offense and i wont here because the scoreboard will speak for itself.  I wish I was a gambler tomorrow and less of a family man because I wouldn't count on OKST covering on.  Texas will do score and a lot and I would take the overs too.  This one is gonna be over quickly and it wont even be close. 

SNAP

Okay, hypnosis is over.

Texas' body of work is much better up to this point that Oklahoma State's.  Yes, they both played weak non-conference schedules but the teams on the Texas schedule were more competitive than Okie States.  Texas fans, dont even worry about tomorrow....this one is gonna be sick!   You are about to see a better than usual OKST team tommorrow but their best wont even be enough to make a show of it...even if something catastrophic happens to a player or a big play on special teams happens.  The Marine predicts, "Texas 52-Oklahoma State 28"

(editors note: 2 of the OKST touchdowns will come in the 4th quarter. If I am right, Peter Bean is paying for my wife's ticket to Miami.  I have already sold my soul for mine so I'm good!)

Awesome post

As for that ticket to Miami…. hmm… I’ll require more than just the two OSU TDs in the 4th quarter.

Tell ya what—Here’s a prop bet for you and you alone: If you nail the final score (52-28 as indicated above; feel free to revise) and

you reply to this comment with the correct answer to the question below… I will buy your wife’s plane ticket to Miami if the Longhorns make the BCS Title game.

Q: How many carries and yards will Fozzy Whittaker have on Saturday? I’ll give you a 1-carry margin on the rushing attempts (e.g. you’re right if you predict 10 and he gets 9, 10, or 11 carries) and a 3-yard margin on his rushing yards (e.g. if you call for 90 yards, then you’re right if he picks up 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, or 93 yards).

So whatcha got, soldier?

Mizzou is good

They happened to catch us at the wrong time. The game didn’t show Missouri was bad; it simply showed how good we can be if we’re clicking on all cylinders.

PB; you just lost a bet!!!

PB as in Peanut Butter,
Thats what I will refer to you as from now on because thats all you will be able to afford to eat after you lose this bet with this Marine…not soldier! It’s alright, all kiding aside, it’s a common mistake and not really a mistake but a term of endearment. Folks who don’t know refer to anyone in the service as soldier as a default. But I appreciate the call out….

as for your proposition…..I accept your offer but I need tickets more than plane fare.

I will take the bait on your offer but I will offer YOU something. So here is my final score and Fozzy carry/production Prediction:

Final Score: 56-28, Texas wins
Carries: 11
Yards: 49

So there you go. Now her’s my offer:

Since I travel quite a bit here in South Carolina, I have accumulated numerous Hilton Honors points. which basically means that my hotel stay in Miami is free that week. When (not if) we go to the BCS title game, I will cover your hotel room stay in Miami, FL if you can get me two tickets. This offer is good for you and you only! I mean that…you provide 2 tickets for my wife and I; I will provide 1 room for you and a guest for 3 nights in Miami, Florida.

You are gonna be broke! Semper Fidelis and Hook’ Em

OSU - good on paper

Like OU and MU, OSU will crumple when hit hard in the mouth – which has yet to happen to them. Look at their schedule so far!

My thoughts exactly

Dude, I agree. Look at their first 4 compared to our first 4. Sure, all 8 are weak but when you compare them against eachother…not even close. Also, Mizzou aint that good man I am telling you and everyone else out there. The only conference team they beat was a mediocre Nebraska team. They are now 1-2 in conference play. Mizzou is not that good. Dont get me wrong, I am glad we validated our #1 ranking but it really proved they were below what everyone else except me expected from them as opposed to showing the country how good we really are. even though we are very good but the oklahoma showed that, not the missuruh game. Now, I will say that tomorrow will show how good we are but again, Oklahoma state is weaker than everybody thinks. They are gonna get blown out tomorrow. Yeah yeah, i am being cocky but they wont hang against our defense. Cant wait for tomorrow.

okay so I was a little off

oops. Mack brown, talking about people who expected a blow out were stupid; he was talking about me. WOW….I didnt expect this. I will say this though; I will gladly eat all of the posion cheese so the team doesnt have any to eat. I will be the sacrificial lamb. Hey we won. My hat’s off to the Pokes; they played great. Next week will be even tougher. Semper Fidelis and Hook em’.
