Best wishes for a safe & joyous holiday...

from a Sooner on the Texas Riviera.

... figures this shittt was coming from texas

* Can L.S.U. stuff O.U.'s running game & make us totally one-demensional?

... LOL ... better question, can Baylor stuff the OU running game again

* Can O.U. protect JW & give him time to throw?

... muahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

* Can L.S.U. establish a physical, assaulting running attack that negates our team speed on D?

... hehehe ... everyone "in the know" knows.

* Both teams must tackle well. Open field tackling is somewhat of a lost art & with the skill talent possessed by both teams, open field, one on one tackling is imperative or YAC's will be huge.

... NO ZONE DEE PLAYED BY LSU ... go back to Big 12 Romper Room ... LOTSA YACS THERE

* Oklahoma must have put the Big 12 Championship game completely out of it's mind & L.S.U. must keep it's mindset on an even, businesslike keel & not let the emotions of the moment make them too fired up.

... truly ludicrous

* Field position & the ability to take advantage of it will be critical & there's a direct relationship between field position & turnovers. Whichever team wins the early field position battle must exploit it & not let such opportunities slip away.

... now, those are beehives, grandson ... don't go in there with that stick and stir 'em up. Did you get this cliche from Trev Albert?

* I don't see the crowd being a factor, one way or the other. Both squads are seasoned & have played regularly in bigtime, hostile environments.

... what! ... say what! ... I can't hear you ... they're screaming too loud ... Teddy Kruger, please make them stop, wah, wah, wah!

*Finally, look for an unexpected occurence & or unexpected player to be pivotal. One team will do something or let something happen that will be totally out of character & ultimately decide the outcome of this game. Making plays is the key & both teams have big time playmakers who must step up. This will be contest of big plays that will decide the outcome.

... White's 3rd pick should do the trick

I will be back to give some incite on this Sooner squad & it's strengths & what we must do to win & what it'll take to beat us.

... WHEN YOU "INCITE" THIS ... will this entail a Sales Pitch between Bullshitt like Mutual Of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and Marlon Perkins ... please come back and SELL US A STORY ON HOW YOU HOMER'S WILL WIN #8 ... that'll INCITE us enough.

embrace the moment & live in the pageantry of this great game.

... I'll watch the live Paris Hilton video off my balcony at the Royal Sonesta celebrating the LSU win ... you can EMBRACE THE MOMENT, watch reruns and polish old tarnished #7.
