Talk about a get-right game. Oklahoma is on a three-game losing streak and needs to catch its second wind before diving into a three-game finishing stretch against No. 25 Missouri, No. 14 Alabama and No. 16 LSU. I mean no disrespect to Maine here — I’m the only person in this space who’s actually been to Orono, more than once, and I have great memories of the Black Bears going to five straight College World Series in baseball in the early 1980s. I adore Maine.
If OU doesn’t dominate, it’s further evidence the Sooners don't belong in the SEC to disbelievers. If they do dominate, it means nothing to the outside world. It’s still Maine. So, how about just avoiding being laughable? Even if they show strides in all of their most questionable areas — turnover margin, passing offense, run game, quarterback protection, big plays — it’s still Maine, but at least winning these small battles can build some momentum ahead of three challenging games.
