Calmer than you are.
I really hate playing Oklahoma. They gave me problems in my bowl game last season, and their defense gave me problems this season in Norman. I won 52-2, but I had 4 picks six. This is how my first few offensive drives went. First drive, 3 plays, a first down and a fumble by my RB. Next play is a pick six by my starting CB. I kickoff, stop their offense on 3 plays. First play from scrimmage is a fumble inside my own 30 by my running QB. A few plays later I pick off their QB again. One play later, I throw a pick. A few plays later, I pick off their QB in the endzone, I see an opening, run it out, and get blown up on the two yard line. One play later is a safety where none of my linemen blocked anyone. The entire front 7 went untouched to my RB, despite fake snapping like a madman and getting called for a false start myself, pushing me back to the 1 yard line.
My run game was awful. Their LBs were doing that skating on ice thing, where it doesn't matter which way you go, which cutback you take, or how many OL you have in front of them, they will slide all over the field, and land a big hit on your runner. I think that their pass defense was suspect, but the pass rush got there fast, and I was so pissed off by my lack of run game that I wasn't reading the defense very well.
I'm really glad that my defense stepped up like they did. It's hard telling if I could've pulled out the win if they hadn't.
