appear a helluva lot slower on the natural grass in Norman than it did on their home turf? Their players looked tenative all night, and I'm sure playing OU has a lot to do with that, but it sure wasn't there against an equally as talented Texas team.

This wasn't the same team that faced Texas and Oklahoma State.

They had a great year, but picked the absolute worst time to throw up a dud. Late in the season, with the whole nation watching.

I've seen a fair share of Oklahoma home games on TV...often rooting against them

I've never seen it as pumped up as it was last night...I think alot of teams would have lost last night

What stood out to me the most was the way Oklahoma was able to physically dominate Texas Tech, but its not surprising at all

Texas Tech has gotten better on D, but they still aren't getting the top notch huge D-Linemen you find at places like LSU or USC...those are the guys you need to stop a physical running attack like Oklahoma

I had a feeling Texas Tech would get blown out, because I just don't think they can match up physically against heavyweight teams like Oklahoma, and it showed
