Big Monday Prediction Thread: OU/Saxet

[BigTime]

Their students are still gone so that helps but this will be really tough.

I have a cautiously optimistic feeling that the good guys will steal one!

OU: 71
Texas: 69

ehhh...We won in Austin last year and this longhorn team is much better. Frank Booker also had arguably the best game of his young career

Anybody have a link to some highlights from last years game in Austin? I need my memory jogged

 

[JBaker]

Need Thomas and Spangler to play solid defense while staying out of foul trouble. Their bigs are a handful.

Tyler Neal had a great game in Austin last year

I think we get beat up in Austin then our offense is clicking when they return the trip to Norman and we smoke them.

OU wins 76-73

OU wins 74-64

Tossup. The team with the most fire wins.
I will pick OU because I am more impressed by their win over Baylor than Texas' opener. Our losses have been on the road against some decent teams. Texas has a loss at home against a good team. Close. So, why not pick the Sooners.

OU 71
Texas 64

Texas 72, OU 68.

Typical Big 12 road game, we'll win everywhere but the scoreboard, I imagine.

This OU team is much better than last years also. Will be a close game.
Texas 66
OU 64

If either Thomas or Spangler get into foul trouble I think we're in for a long night. Even with a healthy Isaiah Taylor playing I think we have a decided edge in the backcourt.

Texas 67
OU 63

Texas 69-61. Too big and deep in the post.

Buddy had a pretty big game against Baylor. I think he had 20 points and 10 rebounds if I recall correctly.

Texas 69-61. Too big and deep in the post.

I am somewhere in this area. I think the 6-point spread is about right. I think we'll stay in it and have a chance but I am also very worried about post play. I went to the Texas game in Norman last year and I thought Texas good a lot of good looks in the post that they missed. We need more of that tonight.

And, I thought a seven-point win might be tough.

OU wins 74-64

I picked the largest spread... What do I win Bob barker?
