*****GAME THREAD: No. 1 Texas versus Oklahoma*****

One thing that does sit well with me after last weekend's game is the traitor getting shutdown.

Well for arguments sake let's compare. The first rank for each team will be scoring defense. The second ranking will be total defense.
Ohio St. 9th, 19th
Tenn. T19th, 30th
OU 24th, 5th
A&M (Elko) 37th, 38th
Ole Miss (Golding) 117th, 115th
Honestly, LSU looks like the hardest defense we will play in upcoming games. They rank T19th and 2nd.
Teams stats come from NCAA.com

Good points. But I was responding to this part of your statement "There aren't many better than Patricia, Knowles and Venables."

I concede OU may be the best defense we will play all year.

I have an OU buddy whose kids went to the game for free.... because OU big donars didn't want to go.

Not often in my lifetime can I remember feeling like we were clearly better than OU.... we squandered this rare opportunity away with terrible special teams, and turnovers.
