Yeah, as much as I hate OU, Michigan looked beyond awful.

The two things I loved seeing was how calm and confident Arch was hitting on all levels of the field and also Wingo's hands.

We need to make sure the B1G is not in charge of officiating when Michigan comes to Austin next year.

Just beat Ohio State

We don't need that now.

Texas and Ohio State flip spots after Week 1. Texas to 1, Ohio State to 2. https://www.espn.com/college-football/fpi/_/view/resume

Hell it could be like the 2024 Bama-OU game but in reverse.

Michigan had 9 penalties for 80 yards and 3 turnovers. I think Kyle is a good coach and will do what he can to help them fix things. Their QB had a terrible game. If they can't establish the run, I'm not sure they do better than 7-5 or 6-6 this year. You make a good point about the injuries. Michigan has a good defense, but so does OU. I could see more turnovers for UM against OU being the deciding factor, and think both teams will struggle to run the ball against each other (with the OU OL injuries you mention). I still think it's double-digit win for OU.

Easton Royal was not thrilled to be at LSU: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc7tHxfiql6/?stkn=dzhhMnhsdnhqMm8z. Actually, this should not go in this thread because I'm not overreacting at all. 😅

OU will be playing this weekend without Fodje, maybe Maikkula and maybe Fasusi. Three starting OLs with significant injuries. They’ve been poopooing Fasusi’s shoulder injury all camp and then he had to be pulled against UTEP because he was ineffective due to the pain. The other two guys both have knee injuries. OU always talks up their health heading into a game and then multiple guys are out, strangely. Okoye has an oblique injury and will also be out, leaving them playing either the 5 star bust or a true Freshman against the Michigan tackles. OU has OL and running game issues. People are overreacting to Michigan’s outlook due to a bad game against a good G6 team.

Honestly even if it’s closer than the public thinks, I think the 6 (and moving) spread is an easy OU bet.

Wingo is going to be a problem for other teams this year

I have no clue about Arizona States roster talent but I can’t help but think they’ve got a real shot this weekend after seeing how a&m performed against Missouri State

Just this morning?

There are going to be games this season that Coleman takes over.

3rd honorable mention to Smothers imo. Dude looked great

I’m calling it right now- that OU Michigan game is going to be a lot closer than people are anticipating. WMU team was really tough. Very well coached team. Bad team to play week one. Just look at what Wisconsin did to Notre Dame in the first half. Literally outplayed them. WMU is a better team than Wisconsin (if not on par). With the near loss and emotional win for Michigan, that gives them both a wake up call and a shot in the arm. Michigan’s defects were exposed. That’s good maybe for OU, but it’s also good and maybe better for Michigan. They’re gonna have a great week of practice. OU might very well beat Michigan, but it’s not going to be a dominant affair. I’m calling a single digit win, maybe even a loss with some heroics by Underwood. My gauge right now is that Michigan is a fringe Top25 team (8-4) and OU is a good not great team (9-10 wins). If OU does dominate, they’ll earn more respect in my eyes. But their performance so far and the eye test imo shows good not great

🤘🤘🤘🤘

1. WR Ryan Wingo How about Ryan Wingo!? Steve Sarkisian only reminded us all offseason about the talent Wingo possessed, and it showed up in the opener. Seven catches, 121 yards and a touchdown. 2. QB Arch Manning Over 300 yards passing, four passing touchdowns and a completion percentage a tick or two under 75%. That's the Manning we saw at the end of the season, and the start to the year was fantastic. 3. LB Rasheem Biles PFF did not grade Biles well, but you force two turnovers in one game, you are just fine with me. HM: DL Maraad Watson Watson played less than 20 snaps, but forced a fumble on a sack and had multiple run stuffs. HM: WR Cam Coleman Only three catches, but two went for touchdowns and the other was a 44-yard connection. Can't wait to see him as a fully featured option with Manning.

Interesting stat further down that post under heading of Lots of Good Teams Can't Run the Ball: "The first eight carries for No. 1 Ohio State's Bo Jackson against Ball State netted 18 yards with a 12.5% success rate until he finally broke free for a 65-yard touchdown in the third quarter."

Does camara have the potential to be a 1st team all American type player?

I’m happy I’m not a Okie Light fan this morning

I think that's fair to say. Michigan was horrific and the quarterback was even worse.

OU is about to destroy Michigan but am I overreacting….

Thanks to Stance for grading the results! Congrats to OTF12024 on your free month!
