Post spring SEC rankings have OU in top 5 and some in top 2. I’m sure that upsets Wichita because he thinks we suck and have no talent. I think this team is gonna be very good and compete very well in the SEC.

Wow, we are (potentially) top 5 in post spring rankings -- in our own conference?? Has OU ever attained that level of success before? Forget about national titles and conference championships. This is truly big time stuff.

Also, isn't it funny that in order to take a shot at me, you have to lie in your post?

No lies in that post but keep moving the goal posts. Top 5 in the SEC will be top 12 in the country, competing for the SEC title and in the playoffs. Top 2 in the SEC will be top 3 in the country and in the playoffs. We are gonna be very good and competing for everything, much to your disappointment.

Sure you lied. I have never once said we have "no talent." I said we need more top 2-3 round players.

And pardon me for not believing that being in the mix for top 12 in the country is/should be our standard. At no prior point in history would OU fans have been excited about that. People were upset Riley's last couple years when we didn't make a four-team playoff. There was some frustration when Bob went a few years between title game/playoff appearances.

And you act as if we have already achieved top 2 in the SEC status, whish isn't remotely true. There is a big difference between that and what we actually did, which was finish tied for 5th (with a head-to-head loss to one of the schools we tied with). We were realistically out of the mix for the conference title game before the end of October.

I don’t lie and you know it. Once again, you’re moving the goalposts. You constantly complain about all things OU. You constantly run down the players, the coaches, every aspect of the program. It’s almost as if you hate OU the way you comment on it.

This OU team is gong to be very good and we will be competing for the SEC title, the playoffs, and the national title. That’s the standard at OU every year since forever. So, whatever you’re crying about is just nonsense. You constantly crap on all things OU and when called OU on it, you claim I’m lying. You’re a pathetic fool.

You blatantly lied. Go find a single post where I said we have “no talent.” That is the exact language you used. So you’re either lying or too dumb to understand that there is a huge difference between me saying we need more early round picks. Either way, you deserve to be called out on it. If you have to lie or exaggerate to moan about what I post, it says a lot about the (lack of) strength of your argument.

And I can’t wait to see how you’ll spin it if they don’t compete for the conference title or come close to competing for a national championship. I’m sure you’ll have excuses. Injuries likely will be at the top of the list, as always, as if every team doesn’t deal with those. I actually think we have a chance to be very good if Mateer doesn’t suck as much as last year, and if we can run the ball. But I think our offensive line lacks depth, and given our recent injury issues there, that puts us in a bad spot if even one or two guys miss time. And I’ve said for four months that we will regret not upgrading the RB room in the portal. Better blocking doesn’t mean our returning RBs will suddenly be able to make guys miss in space. I heard a stat the other day that our yards after contact ranking last season was even worse than our yards before contact ranking. That is on the backs. I hope one of the two freshmen lives up to the hype, but after all the talk the last few years about Tatum, Hicks, Smothers, etc, I’m not counting on a freshman being a game breaker for us. Smothers has/will have the best career of all the newcomers we have had in the past few years, and we essentially didn’t play him.
