"...while the Sooner secondary will erase the awful UNT receiving corps."

"OU can beat North Texas without throwing a pass..."

"...against a ridiculously overmatched Mean Green team that won't get a chance to see what its new offense can really do until the fourth quarter."

I wonder how this guy really feels about North Texas?

I don't read that as putting down the program. Pete's calling it like it is! Trust me when I tell you the guy knows a lot about EVERY 1A team in the country including North Texas. We've talked Mean Green before. I probably respect him more than any other CFB writer in the country.

BTW, Central Michigan is the best team in the MAC with a really good QB, might not happened, but not a huge upset if it does.

I agree. I usually enjoy Pete's columns very much. He doesn't mince words, and a lot of times, isn't afraid to give insight you might not hear from others. I liked his column last year (or maybe 2005) where he referred to himself as "Pete FIUtak". Pretty funny.

I enjoy reading their takes on the games as well. They don't get all of them right as no one does, but they are usually pretty good at getting them close.

We should start the season with teams like

Nicholls State

ACU

Southeast La.

Right because the most awesome players will be demanding to play against those type teams. Should really help with recruiting. :rolleyes:

I'm honestly hoping to just hold them under 50; if that happens, then I'll be more optimistic about our season. In reality, this season won't really show what Dodge can do for us, imo, b/c he won't really have had the opportunity to bring in his players yet. I guess I'm just in a wait and see mode after the past couple of years.

Fiutak may be right but he's taking it to the extreme. He's definitely putting us down when he uses words like 'awful' and 'ridiculously overmatched'.

Historically, OU hasn't scored more than 37 in the last three tries and with a suspect offense (for their ranking) who won't be at full strength, coupled with what should be a decent defense for us, I just don't see them putting up 44. Patrick may not play and Brown definitely won't.

No doubt about the fact that we are going against one of the best defenses in the nation and six points is possible. I think that there will be some surprises that may give their defense some problems and I'm looking for 10 or perhaps 14 from our offense.

At least this time I'm expecting an outstanding effort on our part with no defeatist attitude going in.

      in the new world of NIL coaches contracts should not be signed for more than three years. There is no longer the luxury of building a team.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I just hope Jared has been working the phones trying to gather up the money to get rid of this guy. We need to cut our losses before he tanks us like Mac did and we end up getting pummeled by some FCS program again.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      Regarding the guys with no FBS HC experience, I personally have no issue with that. If we pluck a HC from a lower level, it needs to be somebody with extensive HC experience. There's guy who spend almost 10 years as a lower level HC. Examples include Lance Leipold of Kansas who went 109-6 over 8 seasons at D3 Wisconsin-Whitewater before being hired at Buffalo. Bob Chesney of James Madison went 111-46 over the course for 14 seasons at various D2 and FCS schools. There's guys out there to be plucked. My choice is to promote from within with Cobbs. Cobbs may not work at HC and I know it's a huge leap in responsibility but you won't know unless you try and others haven't worked out. He's worked wonders at RB and he's been doing it for a while. I'm sure he's made connections over the course of his playing and coaching career and would surround himself with experienced winners. My biggest thing is he loves this school and would want to succeed for the love of the school and not just for his own career. I looked back at Boise State head coaches since 2001 and found every single BSU HC spent time coaching at BSU prior to becoming HC and a few played at BSU as well. Several were promoted to HC from within, some went and became coordinators elsewhere before returning as their HC, and only 2 had prior HC experience, Bryan Harsin and Dan Hawkins. Harsin actually left to become Texas's co-OC and then Arkansas State's HC for a 1 year before returning to BSU as their HC but he'd been a coordinator there prior and played at BSU. I believe he's currently on the market and only 48 if we wanted somebody with experience though poor recruiting was a complaint at Auburn. Boise State kind of debunks the whole "prior HC experience" requirement, though.
