Does Arnett expect OU's plane to go down? Their cheerleaders can score 10 points. I'm guessing his projected 3 points by OU is a typo?

Dugan's 3 points is no typo. He's pissed at OU for clobbering his beloved Tigers.

I can't believe the number of people who are picking Oklahoma. They have not seen the talent and speed that will be coming at them defensively. Say what you want about the SEC this year, but they still have the most individual talent of any conference in the country. Oklahoma has only been hit in the mouth once this year (Texas) and look what happened. Now they will get hit in the mouth my an SEC team. I think Florida will win by 10.

I don't think its a typo... he just knows that OU chokes in BCS games. I hope they don't make us (The Big XII) look bad, again. I don't want to see our conference champs get beat by more than a touchdown.

Dugan has completely lost ALL his faculties. Geez Woodling is also a Misery grad but never homered quite like Doogie. Though one would think if he REALLY loved the black and mustard...he would pull for OU to clobber the Gators....it might make the tiggers look a little better.
