As an OU fan, we needed this. Finally something to cheer for

OU will come out with the big upset, go sooners!

Congratulations to Oklahoma for their absolutely dominating win. I've never been more embarrassed for the Tide than this atrocious excuse for a football game.

BOOMER
Sooners Magic strikes again and high tide couldn't stop it

What a game!! And while you picked Alabama, the first several minutes of this video laid out how dangerous Oklahoma could be, especially defensively, if Alabama didn't execute perfectly.
They didn't, and the Oklahoma D was spectacular.

Josh has on a black tee..what does it mean?

I started my CFB fan journey with Alabama. Moved to Oklahoma 25 years ago and have been a Sooner fan since the day I arrived. Has been an extremely fun 25 years to be a fan of the Sooners.
This year has been a struggle yet I understand the totality of the situation.
I am under no illusion that The Sooners are a match for the Tide this year. Still yet I have hopes. I hope to see a competitive game.
Roll Tide! Boomer Sooner!

Alabama: *breathes*

CFB fans: “And I took that personally”

Kendrick laws size is used most effectively on the outside runs where he’s a great blocker against corners and LBs

[sethvann]

He said “I got Bama winning by 11” and then proceeds to predict the score to be 26-10 lol😂 he covered the spread he thought was too high

[phillipcmiller]

Outside of Mississippi State there are no easy wins in the SEC. Bama had best be playing their “A” game in Norman. The Oklahoma Sooners are not pretty on paper, but they have NFL caliber athletes that can go toe to toe with any team in the country.

[JAaronMattox]

Kendrick Law would be deadly out of the backfield. Unfortunately whenever he is targeted in a traditional WR role it becomes clear why they don’t incorporate him more. Plus when he gets a bubble screen he has Ryan Williams blocking for him so it doesn’t work as well as when he’s the one blocking. Now Ryan Williams is taking more of the gadget/horizontal reps. Caleb Odom is even taking more snaps away from him.

2:22 This was the problem to begin with, OU spent 2 weeks preparing to stop the QB run and Bama gave them exactly that. Bama just made it too easy for the OU defense, they gave OU exactly what they were expecting. I think Bama should've thrown OU a curveball and shoudl've gone out throwing the ball, stretching the defense and attack the secondary. The OU defense looked comfortable all game.

[rizon]

I have to chuckle when you said, you take your strength and don't care about the other team's strength even if it matches up, you impose your will.
Sounds like that's exactly what OU did to Alabama. They took their defensive strength against the run and imposed their will on Alabama's run game.

[Keith-hy]

I think it should be noted, Oklahoma has the 18 best defense rank but they played one of the hardest schedules in the nation.. so they’re probably better than the ranking ..

[jslane]

OU seniors play their final game in Norman this Saturday after coming off a much-needed bye, and their coach is literally fighting for his job. Bama's flyin' high, with folks singin' their praises and already placing them in Atlanta. This is Rat Poison™, folks. We gotta treat OU like the legacy they've earned over the last 50+ years, or it's Vandy all over again. Gimme the Tide by 17. RMFT!!!

[Lexlugr]

Josh, you were on the money on the scheme part. OU beasted on this one

[cbsrockem]

You weren’t super far off with your 26-10 prediction, but you got the teams wrong!

[StripedSooner]

This is one of those games where if you go it’d be a boring blowout, but if you don’t go it’ll be one of the craziest games of the year 😂

[Jacob-ecst]

All the stats heavily favor Alabama in this game, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a dog fight. I still think Alabama wins ugly something like 30-16
