I can't explain it but for some reason this weekend's game really has me worried. Maybe it's the 55-3 win against Southern HS last week, combined with our, "who knows what it's really capable of" defense. The fact that their new HC Kevin Sumlin spent the last 5 years with the gooners doesn't help too much either. It'd make their year if they could come into TBP and beat us and from what I've seen on Houston TV they look really solid.

That said... Pokes 36 - Cougs 32

Nah, I gave up worrying about football a long time ago.

Worry doesnt do anything but turn you gray and speed up hairloss. Im in the middle of both.

I think we will struggle out of the gate, and let them keep it close till mid way through the second. But then we take control going into halftime, and put our foot on their throat the second half.

Pokes by 3 touchdowns.

Vegas had us as 16 point favorites the last time I checked.

To tell the truth, I'm always a little worried, no matter who the opponent.

I'm not worried... I fully expect OSU to win all home contests against non-BCS teams.

If we don't I will be upset, but I'm not a bit worried that it could happen.

Should be a fun game to watch with lots of drama.

Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but you don't get anywhere with it.

I wasn't worried until I heard the voice of the Houston Cougars talk about the team. It sounded to me like they were looking forward to OSU giving them a good fight and they would enjoy the challenge of a loud crowd but it's a no-brainer -- they would easily take care of OSU. I think this will be the best team OSU faces until Mizzou.

So with that in mind, OSU 38 Houston 36.

FEAR NOT Oh ORANGE ONE'S , FOR I come with good new and some bad news . First the bad news , and that is , I have no bad news, now for the good news . as I was gazing into my crystal ball I saw a win over Texas, Colorado , Missouri and a good win over Jim Bob's buddies down in Norman but I predict a loss over Houston and Texas Texh due to the crappy officiating that seems to plauge osu and ou when these teams play there.

I predict that three Osu players will tie up Mike Gundy aka the hair spray Warden JR. and give him a mohawk and he will have to wear a panama hat like AL does .

gas prices will go down until the next huricane .

so fear not my misguided osu fans for Buster T Daddy is on the job. trust me when i say we may just win some , yet lose some.

the ony bad news I have is i must leave and go for a big beer run so I will return here tomarrow , but then again maybe I wont .:cool-smiley-027:

Feels like a huge trap game to me. We usually play well at home though, so I think we'll pull it out. Still worried. Not as worried as I am going to be when we play A&M though.
