Will Oklahoma once again ruin Missouri's chances at a National Championship?

Question

OU beat Missouri twice last year and its looking likely that they will meet in the Big 12 championship again what do you think

Answer 1

They don't play Missouri this year. They won't make it to the Big 12 championship game because it will be Texas.

Answer 2

Great question. Well, both teams obviously have a bundle of talent. You look at players like Sam Bradford, DeMarco Murray, Juaquin Iglesias, DeMarcus Granger, Chase Daniel, Jeremy Maclin, Chase Coffman, and William Moore. These guys are all absolute studs. However, both teams have also lost key players, like Allen Patrick, Malcolm Kelly, Reggie Smith, Curtis Lofton, Tony Temple, Will Franklin, and Martin Rucker. Both teams are two of the best in the nation, but there are things that seperate them as well. OU has the better running game, MU has the more promised QB, OU has an amazing O-line, MU has Jeremy Maclin :), OU has an NFL sized D-line, MU has a great linebacking crew and a good secondary. All of these things go in favor of each team. I do believe that they will both take their respective divisions in the Big 12, and will meet once again in the championship. Unfortunately for me (Mizzou fan), I think OU is just too tough to beat for us. We will come back hungry and angry about the last time, but OU is just to big and tough for us to take down. Hopefully one of these teams represents the Big 12 in the national championship game though!

Answer 3

If Mizzou gets past the Illini opener under the Arch they have a shot at going all the way to a match with OU.  OU's defense is better than MU's offernse.  OU has a strong leader on its offense.  Nod goes to OU.

Answer 4

GOOD QUESTION; Um lets wait and see if Oklahoma gets past Texas as well as Missouri getting past Kansas. A league that has 11 solid returning qb's, translates to a whole bunch of upsets. That Freshman qb from Baylor Griffin III , that kid is going to be electric

in the future, strong arm, and I mean STRONG, and he just glides when he runs that ball, Baylor under Art Briles and that young qb sensation Griffin III, if it all goes well ,going to do some very positive things for Baylor, I was very impressed with Griffin, extrememly impressed, Baylor has something special.

Answer 5

They both are loaded with talent and it is a hard one to pick.  I'm going with Missouri because I am a fan and I know what this team has.  Everyone knows what they can do on offense.  But people don't realize that they had a pretty good defense last year and they have 10 starters returning on D.  The Big 12 lacks quality defense and Missouri just might have the best D this year. I think Missouri has the edge when it comes to talent.  Both Ou and MU should be undefeated going into the conference championship which means they could be 1 and 2 in the rankings.  What a game that should be and it was a good question.

Answer 6

they dont even play missouri this year

Answer 7

Oklahoma is going to win the Big 12. Missouri is going to stumble during the season (I am looking at Texas and Illinosis as possible spoiler games). Missouri will still win the Big 12 North, but get owned by Oklahoma in Big 12 Title game.

Oklahoma goes on with a 12-1 record to play in the National Title Game against WVU. Missouri does make it to a BCS game and plays Florida in the Fiesta Bowl.

Answer 8

Who cares, I'm tired of the Big12.  They are all overrated.  GO PAC-10!

Answer 9

I think it will be the other way around.  Everyone is talking about OU for the National Title...the problem is they might have to face a Missouri team that will have revenge on their minds and are loaded with talent and experience.  I think you may have it backward.
