After the effort, or lack there of, put out in fort worth do the Mustangs stand a chance against OU?

Stand a chance? Of course.
Do we need to play better? You bet.
But OU isn't Ohio State. There's no reason the Ponies can't beat them.

It will be from the stands for sure.

We are bad....I am as happy as anybody that we are 9-1, but we are not a good team...clearly coaching has helped us get by....defense is winning games for us.

OU is not that great of a team this year, but mark my words.... We will lose by 15. All they need to do is expose our horrible guard play (Killen).

yes, dbb, It will all depend on turnovers. I would probably let Dez start and see what happens. Maybe get Roberts to bring the ball up. He seems to have better ballhandling skills than either of those two from what I have seen.

Teams will watch video from the last game and use traps and yes, expose Killen if he continues to turn it over and get picked.

However, we seem to be a better road team (aside from the TCU 1st half). And our 3 point shooting has improved a lot.

Duke is going to have a long year....not enough athleticism and UNC is going to kill them I'm afraid.

I will be there!

Norman is a tough place to play. I think they have won 40+ straight out of conference games at home. Anyone have the stats on that?

They lost to Villanova at home this year to end the streak. It was a very long one prior to that.

Our big guys have controlled these early games, but we will struggle with OU’s size and athleticism. Unless Roberts or Epps find a hot hand, I see us having a similar offensive output as TCU, who scored 35 pts against OU – only 12 in the second half.

On a side note, Dayton received 2 votes in he AP poll this week.

Pretty surprising that Dayton still got a few votes after the thrashing they took against Pitt. That game still helps our RPI though, saw we're back up to 18 in the CBS Sportsline RPI.

A win over OU would keep us up there for now, although it will start to slide after that (win or lose), as only Memphis remains as a "quality" opponent, and even they're struggling at the moment.

where does anyone get that roberts has better ball handling skills than killen or willingham?

I should have been more clear, I just mean bringing the ball up, then he could pass it off to Dez or John. He did it on several occassions against TCU.

I am sweating bullets, everytime Killen handles the ball. Bless his heart.
