next 5 what is OU's record

I can think of one other glass-half-empty type who has gone awfully quiet since the opener. It might well be him.

I think we can all name a handful of no-shows who haven’t been around lately. The one you may be thinking about hasn’t posted since the Wisconsin game, our only loss of course.

I’m sure he’s been busy.

Ill take my medicine. I thought before the season started we would look a lot like the 2016-2017 team. I have been pleasantly surprised by how well we are defending.

Max, you’re not one of the posters I had in mind.

Truth is, I think this team has been a pleasant surprise for the majority of posters on this board. I believed in them early on because I was convinced they would be a lot better on defense. But, no way I thought they would be this good or go 8-1 at this point of the season.

If you were the 1 and 4 predictor then someone else has a knife dislodged in their human structure.

I was thinking the same thing.....where is that clown? I think it was LeRoy. He needs to come take his medicine.

That will be tough since Leroy has been banned. Besides, he is in mourning right now having to digest the fact Polla scored 6 points today...6 more than he would have predicted.

As for me, I went with 4-1 when the poll came out...and hopefully we'll get one more win than I predicted!

This team is a whole lot better than I ever thought they’d be. It’s amazing how much better they play defense. Long way to go, but couldn’t be more pleased with the way they play. So far, so good.

I think they are better than SC. I worry about Creighton though.

 

[Salt City Sooner]

Speaking of the Jays, the Huskers are putting it to them in Lincoln, 72-56 @ the 10 minute mark.

 

[coolm]

the bugeaters are supposed to be pretty good. I havent seen them play yet.

 

[Soonerinkc]

Nu ranked, won by 20...

I went with 4/1 I think. Creighton will prob be the tough one.

I voted 2-3

Loses to Norte dame, usc, creighton was my thinking at the time

 

[stormspencer]

These are the projected lines for each game (approximated) using Kenpom, Sagarin, and Torvik:
OU -10 USC
OU - 7 Creighton
OU - 1/pick'em @Northwestern

I believe OU has covered every game this year except Wisconsin. Vegas hasn't quite caught up to how good OU actually is.....hopefully that continues.

All right, who was the joker who picked 1-4?

All right, who were the two jokers who picked 2-3?

 

[Max Power]

I already owned up to voting 2-3

I hope to call myself out the next game.

 

[Jeopardude]

All right, who were the fifteen other jokers besides myself who picked 3-2?

It may eventually come down to all of us bowing at the altar of the one person who picked 5-0......hopefully.

 

[coolm]

my hat's off to the 5-0 picker. I thought I was going out on a limb at 4-1.

My poll pick was 4-1. I posted this later:

My guess is 4-1, although 5-0 is not out of the question, and 3-2 would not be too bad.

Notice how I covered my rear end in that post?
