So, what do we have to do to beat OU . . .
« on: October 23, 2011, 04:28:40 PM »
it's really kind of a watermark/benchmark game for both programs.

I admit, I really wish OU would have won against TT.  It's a little scary to think how  :chainsaw:  they're going to be.   Thankfully that rage gets offset by the game being at K-State.

Well . . .

Oh, I really wish this game was at night.

First, if this was Mizzou, and they had just lost their shot at a National Championship, then we'd be in great shape because they'd fold up like clockwork.  However, I don't think Stoops will let them give up.

So, our best chance for victory is that they all catch legionnaires disease at their hotel.

this seems like an element we can control.   :dunno:

I wish it was a night game as well. I don't like how me match up against OU. Don't think Klein has the arm to hurt them. Hopefully Snyds still has a few more wrinkles to unfold.

I actually think K-State will match up pretty well with OU. It won't be easy, but K-State can certainly win the game. Probably 40-45 percent chance.

I won't be surprised if we are a 10-12 point underdog, but I really think we can win the game.  I was not impressed with OU and I think their loss actually helps us...mentally helps us and hurts them.

Same thing we've done to win all of our games.

Win the turnover battle.
Minimize big plays.
Control the clock.
"Special" special teams.( ;) )

We can go toe to toe with OU.

Have we ever won a Gameday game? I can't remember doing so. We have that going for us now.

I agree with Dlew12, just do what we have done all year. Scheme the piss out of them. Hopefully we have some plays we've been saving for this game.

first of all, the "i really didn't want them angry (losing to Tech)" is stupid.  They lost.  Different game...perhaps they will be more focused and who cares?  Bring it.

The key is the key to our entire season....make their offense one-dimensional by shutting down the run.  We can do this with 5 or 6 and cover with the rest.  Run the ball offensively and play well on special teams.

We'll be fine in this game.  OU is soft on offense.  OSU will match up with us better in the "physicality" aspect of it.

Academics is a stupid word.

Academic schools are synonymous for being rich, powerful and exclusive, three things Kansas State is not.

So when people throw the word "academics" around, that's really what they are referencing.

This.  I fully expect Bill to open up the offense this week. 

Mark my words- we beat the Sooners in a route.

I'd rather shutdown their passing game.

OU doesn't appear to be good at stopping the run or the pass and they appear to suck at tackling.  This should make it easier for our offense.

Keeping their offense off the field will reduce their chances of scoring.  Landry Jones has looked like Rex Grossman throwing the ball the last few games.  Shut down the run and let the big xii's ghost of Garrett Gilbert chuck the ball around.

Also, don't let Finch or Broyles run around, eventually they will get in the endzone.  We do this and we will win, but a comfy margin.

Stills is more dangerous than Broyles at this point, imo

Stills looks like Chris Tucker's bisexual character from the Fifth Element.  He drops more balls than he catches, which is something you wouldn't expect a bisexual to do.  Maybe he should use his mouth.  :dunno:

I expect us to hit landry jones so hard his face mask breaks and his entire face is smashed in and his whole offensive line pukes when they see his mushed up face.  Then Lockett runs a Wildcat for 99 yards and Collin Klein puts the game on ice.  12-2 cats
