OU with a healthy Sprague will be able to move the ball on NIU, question is how consistently? NIU also only gets six days to prepare which may be a factor...we'll see.
I'm rooting for a Toledo rematch. I posted in another thread that another NIU/BG MACC isn't appealing to me.
If it was in Athens, maybe. But, I would be shocked if OU beat NIU. NIU hasn't lost in November since 2009. That's one of the more incredible stats in college football.
Fleck rowed the boat backwards this year. After Toledo beats them they'll finish the year 6-6. Row on , PJ. Row on.
I have to admit I don't like watching the Western Oarsmen. From Fleck's expressions, the antics on the sidelines of the team, to play calling. And that sudden 'sprint to the coach' at the end of the quarter is high schoolish.
I hope someone hires him away and the Bronco returns to the uniform.
As much as I believe we win a rematch, especially indoors, I never want a rival to win anything.
And the toodle edoo marketing club will turn a west division victory into a national championship video.
