DUCKS4OUUO No. 1 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I grew up in Oklahoma a Sooner Fan. Became a Duck fan when I moved here 30 years ago. Been to every OU UO matchup except this one. 2004 in Norman I showed up not knowing who I would root for. Rooted for Ducks ever since. I've been to 5 National Championship games 3 loses for OU, 2 for UO. So something has to give. i just want a fun game. OU has a real stud at QB, smart, fast, & can throw. My take: Best Band OU Best Mascot UO Best Coach OU Should be Stoops vs Bellotti Best QB OU OU 31 13 U0 PALINDROME BOWL 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deciding factor may be the qb, which doesn't seem fair on the surface. I will say we have the best coach, by subtraction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 4 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Though the biggest question really comes down to... Oregon's run game v Oklahoma's run defense... With brown Oregon is one dimensional or at least close to it. Oregon has won pretty much every game this year by saying we are going to run the ball and then challenging anyone to stop us. Really only Utah had managed to do so and they sold out to stop the run and dared Brown to pass ... Turns out Brown couldn't pass. Yes... The Stanford game was a loss but that one still has some weird things that don't concern the run game formula. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosgrove Computer says Oklahoma by 5.6, the same computer said Utah would win both Duck games. I hope we do not lay a Duck egg on the national stage. Feels like this will be another Utah type game, Oklahoma by 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
