Forecast for cold and wet. Mixture of rain /sleet/snow...Low of 28 degrees on Saturday. Not sure who this benefits. I know that OSU hasn't beaten anyone of note. They did play FSU tough in game one, but since then they haven't looked too impressive. We are no rolling ball of butcher knives either. Both teams looking to get bowl eligible, and this game could be the only real chance to make that happen. They have Baylor and OU left, and we have TCU. It looks like do or die for both teams. Its going to be a night game so it will be VERY COLD.......

1-I think the weather definitely benefits us. If it's cold and wet it becomes big boy football. Our offensive line isn't great but there offensive line is atrocious. Our defensive line vs their offensive line might be the biggest mismatch of the season. The only way Oklahoma State wins this game is on the outside, they aren't going to beat us on the o-line and d-line. 

2-Playing Florida State close really doesn't tell me anything. Everyone plays Florida State close, until Florida State actually wants to play. It's called boredom.

I agree with #1 - if the weather is cold and or wet it should benefit UT more.  Our DL & OL are definitely better than osu and that is where it starts and that is where the game will be won.  The Horns can run the ball in poor conditions better than the Pokes IMO and I think those conditions will affect their O performance / passing game more than ours.

I think the Horns will come into Stoolwater with more momentum but with a bye last week, Okie Lite has had 2 weeks to prepare for us.  I think the Horns win a semi close one - maybe by 7 - 10 points.

Hook 'Em and Beat the Hell Outta Okie State!!

OSU will have had 2 weeks to practice, rest, and heal......and they will be at home.

 
Confidence and momentum are game changers, and we should be coming in with both. Hook'em!

 
Or perhaps there's something to the Jameis Winston point-shaving allegation?

Interesting, coincidence at best.  Damn near impossible to prove point shaving. It is far easier to prove he has an association with an individual of a dubious nature. I'm betting that FSU just wants out of the Jameis Winston saga at this point and the season can't end soon enough.

Agreed

NCAA doesn't need a scandal of this magnitude either.  Unless a blabbermouth mobster of Henry Hill's ilk steps forward, they can't prove anything.

But they sure are enabling him to try and win another NC first! Win at all costs, no values or morals...nice policy Jimbo. Stupid name Jimbo.

 
Meh. Portland weather. Toughen up a bit boys.
