This BCS Champ has all the makings of 1995 all over again for OU, except OU is UF in 1995. That year we came in with a high flying offense crowing about 6 45+ point games and routinely beating rivals by 4 touchdowns. We were unstoppable, never mind our defense was suspect, we tagged 60 a few times on some folks and that was ok by us. We swaggered into that game cocky and full of ourselves against a balanced team like Nebraska. We thought, heck our QB Wuerfell can sling it around the field at will. Well the famous line I hear all the time still to this day is ..”Hey can you hear that Tommy Frazier just scored again”. Defense means everyhting and poo-pooing it you do at your own peril. Wuerfell got hounded all day by the Blackshirts and we ran Troy Smith around like a scared rabbit 2 years ago. Keys to winning a championship are solid line play, running game, capable secondary, special teams and depth. I think we got OU on 3 of those 1 I will concede to OU and 1 is a push. Being the contrarian I like the game close like 24-17 going into the forth and the Gators big game experience, depth and conditioning do what they have done 11 times this year..wear them down. Gators win in a walk 45-24.
