As we learned last week games aren't played on paper unfortunately.  If they were you could expect the Kansas offense to move the ball better than the Oklahoma offense.  Problem is the Sooner offensive unit has been tested this season where the Kansas one really hasn't.  The other problem is that the Sooner D is a little bit scary in case anyone noticed.  #4 in the country in sacks and TFL's, #8 overall and #3 scoring defense as well. 

This game will test Kansas offensive line, Kansas running game and how crisp Todd Reesing really can be.  Sure there are reasons to say Kansas can win this one and sure they can, but make no mistake it will take one hell of an effort.  I just hope they get fired up for this one because if you can't get up for OU coming into your stadium then you've got problems.
