The Sooners are fresh off of a dominant victory over the Alabama Crimson Tide, but the oddmakers are still favoring the Bayou Bengals in Tiger Stadium.
Brian Kelly's Thoughts:
Different Energy, Keeping the Program Together:
"I think I have a pretty good pulse of our team all the time because if you do not, then there is a disconnect there somewhere. I would say that we felt like we had a great week of practice. Our preparation was outstanding. Our guys really stood up and said, look, we have got to play better."
Simplicity Wins the Day, Coaches Make Key Adjustments:
"As coaches, we took our responsibility and said, listen, let's keep putting our kids in position to make plays. We would have liked to make a couple more. We made it a little bit harder than we had to. But again, I love the way they competed. And this week in particular, I knew that this football team was going to be ready. And they have been ready.
"We did not close out three games. We had three games that were in the third and fourth quarter that we had a chance to close out, or the narrative would have been much different around here. Everybody would have slept better. I would have slept better, and you guys would not have anything to talk about."
The Tigers will return to action on Nov. 30 against the Oklahoma Sooners in the regular season finale with kickoff set for 6:00 p.m. CT in Death Valley.
