The dude picked the TU "Golden Eagles" to beat us earlier this year so take it for what it's worth.
Chris Brown: Kansas (+7) over Oklahoma.
This is the part of the season where OU is supposed to wake up: All three of their losses have come on the road against ranked opponents, they've had time to digest their injuries, and their offensive and defensive lines should be able to dominate against lesser opponents. Kansas, on the other hand, squandered goodwill and a perfect record to previously dysnfunctional Colorado; we always thought the Jayhawks were pretenders, and now we know. Or do we?
I see this game playing out differently. OU is still emotionally dealing with the status of Sam Bradford, even if by all rational accounts he is gone for the year. And Kansas's look-ahead loss may have just been that: Todd Reesing and his head coach, former OU assistant Mark Mangino, know that if they're ever going to have a chance to beat Stoops, this is likely it. I think OU makes enough mistakes and squanders enough opportunities in the red zone for Reesing to register probably the biggest win of his career.
Some interesting and valid points in there obviously, but I just don't see it. Unless a full on implosion/meltdown is underway in our camp that we know nothing about. The way this season has gone I wouldn't doubt it.
