No predictions on winner and loser here but I THINK we will see a lot more run game (like 60-40 at least) this year than last. If CM is cleared to play, and i suspect he will be, the OL COULD control a game from start to finish like we did in the late 90's and score/control the clock in the fourth quarter (especially against a high octane offense) . Of course not having a spring practice and a normal summer work out schedule for that bunch to really gel will probably negate that some but I fully expect the QB position to be ask less of this year than in the past. And obviously - there's always that absurd notion I could be totally wrongTheir offense was top 5 their defense was top 30 at best. Our defense is probably the same level as their offense this year. Both teams return 16 starters 8/8. Problem for us is our offense vs their defense. We got slightly better last year as compared to the year before. We need a QB that can throw to the receiver in stride. I fully expect our offensive line take a leap forward and that will help out our run game. CJP will not be looking ahead to the Oklahoma game this year bc of what happened last year. And Oklahoma is breaking in a new QB. It'll be nice to see an Offensive head coach vs a Defensive head coach go at it in Norman.
