"Illinois State played in the FCS national Championship game. @john9williams True. But OU did see Illinois st Temple and Kent on their schedule. Plus they got lucky to get Auburn SC Mizz and LSU in arguably their worst seasons in years. @john9williams True. But OU did see Illinois st Temple and Kent on their schedule.

"@mzenitz @CBSSports @CBSSportsCFB @KimGrinolds @Chris_Fetters @ScottEklund @BrandonHuffman @bmarcello @chris_hummer @TomFornelli Go after the highest scoring OC from FCS preferably in a talent rich recruiting footprint. Fisch needs help scripting plays against better defenses in the conference especially on the road. Having a young innovative mind on staff will only help this team moving forward"
