The question this week is not whether he no. I ranked soon cars will cover a 55-Point spread Over wingless Kansas stale but How Long it will take. One Quarter probably not since the record for Points in a period is 49 by Houston against Tulsa in i960 and Davidson of All people against Furmanik 1969. A half perhaps. In that 1968 game Houston scored 76 second half Points in crushing Tulsa 100 6, three quarters for sure. Even Barry Switzer who claimed he feared Texas can t make Chicken salad out of Chicken feathers. Instead the sooner will make mincemeat out of the wildcats their receivers can male some plays is the Best Switzer can say for a stale before confessing no one has scared me. I can t make someone out to be something they re not. I think they be been disappointed with How they played in losing to teams they should have won against Kansas state lost to division 1-aa aur in Peay which lost to division 11 Tennessee Martin which ton to Murray state which lost to Western Ken Tucky which last to division i Gardner Webb.
