OU vs OSU

Submitted by BlueChitown on

Anyone else watching?  Who are we rooting for?  I find it difficult to root for the Bucks, even for B10 pride.  Go Sooners.

Even with that INT, I will wait until the game's over before I celebrate. o$u usually finds a way to slime their way out of situations like this. Although, it's looking good so far!

Sure does. One of those QBs that really has no business being in the heisman conversation, but is lumped in because the program continues to produce and be a powerhouse. Samuels was definitely a bigger factor last year, yet you hear about Barrett all the time. Extremely overrated, and this game just helps to prove how sub-par his actual QB skills are. Reminiscent of Troy Smith. I'll just be happy to not have to hear anymore hype about him. That being said; Baker Mayfield is dropping dimes. PS. Urban has a very punchable face

JT is a much better runner. Speight is a much better passer. Speight threw a couple high balls today. I have lost track of how many balls JT has thrown to Buckeyepants out of bounds. Hey, there is another one.

Honest question. I would have to respectually disagree with the previous poster that said Speight is a much better passer. They both suck at passing, but I don't recall too many of JT's picks resulting in a pick 6. JT is obviously the better runner.

This shouldn't be a shock to me anymore, but Barrett is just not a particularly good passer.  He's just off a lot.  And that was his calling card going to OSU - not the best athlete in the world, but an accurate passer.  But it seems like every QB looks like him in the end; a runner with questionable mechanics.
