Overall: Nobody will stop our offence but our defense is a major concern (cost the Texas Tech game). Overall its been a slow start but after the UNLV game we're starting to hit our strides.
Only wins were 4th quarter come from behinds against cupcake teams. However, the offense posted decent numbers against 'Bama which showed me that if the D could get it's act together they might could win a few tough games down the stretch against the lower tier SEC teams. All in all, they aren't a whole lot worse than lots of Hog fans expected this year.
I'm really happy about our start, too, but what happens when we play a real team? Now I must dig up $1000 so I can go to the OU game.
True but I think Colt is going to have a good game vs OU. Who have they played? Washington, come on. It is going to be a couple of interesting weeks coming up, and lets hope we dont over look Colorado like OU did last year.

Don't you mean who has texas played? OU beat a RANKED team that had the best defense in the nation. Bradford still put up career bests. I'll call it 35-17 SOONERS over the shorthorns.
I just hope we fair well against Baylor, the last couple of years we've sucked it up the week before the OU-texas game.
Next up Mizzou, as much as I hate to say it, they are probably going to end their 30 year losing streak in Lincoln. I think the only streak we have left is our sellout streak. But, things are looking up and hopefully the program will get back to being a power.
I would be pretty encouraged if we get to 8-4, 7-5 this year.
