I had a dream last night and it was a horrific one.\u00a0 I dreamed the Oklahoma Sooners will be shocked in the 2020 Cotton Bowl as the out maned Florida Gators pull the upset (in Oklahoma only) 41 to 29.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
As in the 1978 Orange Bowl when Lou Holtz had his Arkansas Razorbacks primed for a big game upset, Florida is set for a good old wagon train massacre on the Sooner Schooner.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
OU has set the stage for over-confidence in this tussle.\u00a0 With a gun-slinger at quarterback in Kyle Trask, working with a depleted receiving corps, and a porous defense that has issues, the Gators should be belly to let the \u201cSooners\u201d slice and dice them in this game in Arlington.\u00a0 But that dream was not the way it tells me it is going down.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t look Sooner fans, but this young Big Red will not play the game we expect and the ride back to Norman will be unpleasant.\u00a0 What would you expect?\u00a0 Yes Sooner fans, the same thoughts were had before that Orange Bowl debacle.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
As bad as it was for Barry Switzer and the boys in the 78 game, OU head coach Lincoln Riley will understand that feeling after the game in Jerry\u2019s World.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
This is 2020, right? That sports fans is not good in any which way.<\/p>\n
