I don't like agreeing on this, because I want to have more Kool-Aid.
I don't see Okie State's offense going crazy. I don't see ours doing much of anything.
31-14 or 31-7 sounds about right.

When Chris talked about Texas Tech seeming to set up perfectly for a Rhoads upset special, I didn't agree because Texas Tech really had looked pretty good, even against mostly subpar competition. In most of the past upsets, the opponent had already shown some chinks in the armor.
I think OSU fits the bill much better than Texas Tech did. However, the state of our OL just makes me feel that it is incredibly unlikely that it happens.
IF it is to happen, the defense is going to need to play big, and we'll probably need some points from the defense and/or special teams.
In the end, I think we suffer yet another heartbreaking defeat. 27-20 OSU.

ISU is running out of O-linemen. OSU is legitimately two-deep on the DL. You'll have no run game up the middle, because we'll just platoon DLs until your OLs wear down.
Our two outside linebackers are both third year starters. It will be difficult to run outside. As such, you have to pass to have any offense. Three of our four starting DBs are seniors.
Good luck tomorrow.
