As far as winning with the "Air Raid" offense are you saying that was Stoops and OK? If so I think you need to look to the SEC and a guy called the Ole Ball Coach. He did pretty well with something called the fun n gun. And he was Stoop's boss so he had to do it before OK?

Dang Spurrier!

Are you dumb? Mike leach invented the air raid/modern college offense at Oklahoma..its where it all started...LOL some of you guys.....:lolabove:

I can't tell if this is a serious post or trolling, lol, ,but Mike Leach was running the air raid at Kentucky when Bob Stoops was DC at Florida....so when Bob got the OU job, he brought on Leach b/c he knew it was a tough offense to stop.

You make a good point but if we are talking SEC title math OU has 16 recognized by ncaa. Anyway yea TN is a great tradition and program I was just trying to stir some sheet. lol

I get you lpl
I will say this, both conferences were formed in the early 90s right? Oklahoma get their big coach who turned it on not.long after, while UT started going down hill around 05 and hasnt recovered. So that pads the conference stats while the overall wins are very similar.

Your post is full of nonsense. OU is not hurt by TcU Oklahoma has been recruiting nationally for years now with most of our impact players over the past 10 years being from Florida or California more so than Texas. That being said its all irrelevant because within the next 3 years OU will be on their way to the SEC and will own the state of Texas.

You are so delusional. Anyone can obviously see you're barely hanging on in the recruiting rankings. Your program is on a slow long slide to mediocrity and you're only hanging on because of your coach and an administration willing to allow thugs into the program. It's only temporary though, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see where you are headed.

BTW, how are those stadium upgrades that everyone was bragging about last year going?

OU has never really been in the top 5 recruiting lol they are always a team in the 7-15 range. But here at OU we don't hang our hat on recruiting rankings we play for championships as you well know if you have been alive the past 15 years. Thing is bob stoops is not known as A very good recruiter. Why don't you do some research on John Blake and some of the great recruiting classes he had through the 90s when OU was terrible. Put butch jones, sumlin, jimbo etc at OU and they would have a top 5 class yearly. OU will never go anywhere dumbass they and Alabama are the Crown Jewels of consistency in college football over the past 100 years and guess who's alabamas daddy?? That's right..keep dreaming and enjoy that huge loud stadium that you guys can't fill and we will be selling out games against Akron

You must be a young'un. Early in his career Stoops was recruiting as well as anyone in the country.

Your recruiting rankings have dropped noticeably since TCU was added to the conference. Stoops is barely able to get to #15. Now Baylor...BAYLOR is starting to have some recruiting success. Sorry, doesn't bode well for your program.

You will recruit well vs your conference mates but nationally...your falling behind.

LOL

Actually, OU typically never is a top ranked recruiter(outside of maybe the year or two after the nat title). Other than a few recruits like Adrian Peterson, Tommie Harris, we don't generally land earth-shattering names.
Samaje Perine was a 3 star guy I think, heck Sam Bradford was barely recruited. Norman OK, is traditionally not a destination place for alot of kids...they wanna go to Austin or LA etc. But the ones who come to Norman want to be there and usually love it.

Our strength has always beeen great asst coaching & player development within the system.

We have slipped a bit from where we were in the 00's, but got alot of young talent, new coaches which are the key. the old regime had gotten lazy in many ways.

And just so ur aware, we lost 3 games last year on 1 mistake play more or less in each of them, including our kicker missing a freaking XP. Bad playcalling and putting the talent in minimizing positions are the story of why coaching changes were made. The only games we were truly whipped was Baylor & Clemson.

And we finished 6th in the country just the year before. So that's not too shabby.

And the stadium upgrades are underway and will be completed before the beginning of next season.

No, again.

TCU hasn't affected recruiting until the past season. They sucked before last year. Same with Baylor but maybe the past 2-3 seasons. That happens.

The real key is Texas A&M. Them being successful in the SEC is the real pipeline bomb. So yes, while OUr recruiting in TEXAS now has more competition, we've been going out west to Cali getting players. And snagging a few kids from SEC states. But we still recruit heavy in Texas....and there's always a standout kid from Oklahoma itself.

Incorrect again. Do you like check facts before you type or?? OU recruiting classes: 2010 ranked 5th, 2012 ranked 11th, 2013 ranked 15th, 2014 ranked 15th, 2015 ended up 14th but added another 4star that got released of LOI at Texas ended the year aRound 12th. After OU played for the title in January of 2008 their 09 class was ranked 13th and TcU was still in the conference of the blind. So in conclusion you have no idea what you are talking about.

Wow. Obviously it's a reading comprehension
Issue. All the extra information is cool, but a VOL fan provided the answer early on. I'll stay
tuned, and once y'all learn to actually answer a simple and direct question, I might ask another. So far, a VOL knew more about the OK offense than any Sooner.

So, your retort is OK was barely getting top 15 before TCU. Nifty.

OK, so 2013 you dropped to 15th, when was the last time before 2013 that OU finished that low in recruiting?

Also remember, back in the day (2000s) tu was ALWAYS in the top 10 if not top 5 in recruiting. Your not even competing with them right now or maybe your are...I dunno.

Like I said, once tu gets a coach who can recruit in Tx it's game over for OU.

Watched a bit of the Akron game. Hard to make any definitive statements about OK or UT based on their first game, but it's obvious OK has some great players that will make UT pay if they get loose.

I've seen posters on the OK boards touting the fact their HUNH offense would gas our front seven, and I was hoping to get an idea of how fast they really get plays off. I noted they only got 76 plays off in the Akron game, but we all know that doesn't always tell the tale. It was tough to gauge time between plays on the Fox broadcast because there was no play clock, but it appeared to be more of a TYTNH offense. I know Riley averaged in the upper 80s at his last gig, but it just didn't look fast enough to get those numbers.

Were my eyes deceiving me? Were they actually playing faster than it appeared? Or, is it simply going to take time to get the new system up and running?

Riley said in an interview before the 1st game, we'd go fast when needed and slow it down when we need to.

This isn't Kevin Wilson's offense of hurry, hurry, hurry.

Typically speaking, regardless of the OC in recent years, we'll go fast after a successful play. If we get a screen pass go for 20+, we're prob going fast next play. Quick slant goes for 15-20, we're prob going fast next play.

Every OU fan doesn't know what they're looking at as I'm sure (and learning) some Vol fans don't either.

Dude read the post. OU had the 13th ranked class in 09 after the title game in 08. TcU was not In the big 12. Our point is OU teams have always been 10-15 ranked classes regardless of TCU or any other team or conference. Guess what we still win...Texas isn't ever gonna be game over for OU we recruit nationally and are closer to Dallas than TU is and we are always better coached hence the championships we have and they don't. Not to mention Mack brown had top 3 classes from Texas every single year and OU destroyed them.

Go look at the classes from earlier that got you there. The last time you won the Big 12 south outright was 2007 with a 6-2 conference record. Wow, you guys really underperformed with the recruiting classes that won you all those Big 12 championships in the 2000s.

Again, we play big boy football around here. The kind of classes your getting right now won't win any championships in the SEC. But you are where you've always been, in a crap conference. So add two or three more wins just for that and you get the 9 or 10 wins your fanbase expects. EZPZ.

I find it hilarious that TxA&M came into the "vaunted" SEC with an entire roster full of existing Big 12 kids, including a RS Johnny Manziel(a lowly 3-star Big 12 recruit) and immediately had monster success. Not gonna lie, even us Big 12 ppl bought into the hype a bit thinking the SEC was really an untouchable division. But not after that....

Then Mizzou playing their gimmicky Big 12 offense made it to the SEC title game the following year, led by a BACKUP qb, again with a roster of 75% EXISTING Big 12 players/recruits.

Yet neither of these schools could even make Big 12 title games.

I'm not a conference pumper like many of you SEC folk, but the Big 12, in case you forgot, routinely kept 3-5 teams in the top 10 polls in the mid-late 00 seasons. Mizzou, OU, Tex, OSU, A&M, KSU....all were successful. Even in it's temporary state, the only true weak links are ISU and Kansas. There's 8 outta 10 teams(maybe not Tech) in this conf who can talent-wise line up with anyone on any Saturday.

OU went into the Superdome and beat Alabama. Then TCU flat dismantled Ole Miss in front of an SEC crowd. Worst ass whippin i've seen in a few years.

You're drinking the kool-aid heavy, but consider that most of these kids are all recruited by every conference. They can go anywhere they choose, and they don't automatically become stars by going to the SEC. Now I'm not saying we'll win or lose this Sat., but your "big boy football" rhetoric is laughable anymore.

We play college football.
