Re: FSU to the BIG???

I guess that's why undefeated ACC champ FSU didn't make it. They didn't have any quality losses. :D

Re: Big 12 to SEC Transition

I look at Nebraska, & wonder, did they gain a thing in leaving? How about Colorado, same with them? We shall see, but I do know it will be a much harder road to travel to another NC, than it has been in the past over all. But on the other hand we should be able to recruit a bit better Well, we'...

Re: Big 12 to SEC Transition

Been feeling a little strange lately thinking about this conference change. I was thinking about which bowl games I was most interested in watching. It's still the Big12 teams. I've been an OU fan since probably 1951 or so. It was the Big 7 then. OU has really never changed conferences in all that ...

Re: Sooner qbs in NFL history

I always thought when Hurts was here he wouldn't make it in the NFL. Me too. After being used to Baker and then Kyler, Jalen didn't seem to be quite as good at OU. But he's on a good team, and the Eagles do a good job of using his running ability. He took his team to the Super Bowl last season and ...

Re: Great Coach Venables Interview

"What's the pitch to come to Oklahoma?"

Not 7 national championships or 7 Heisman winners or an NIL payday or the NFL or anything to do with football, but rather come to Oklahoma and you'll find a place to belong and people who willl help you learn to win at life.

That's my coach!

Baker had himself a day yesterday

22-28, 381 yds, 4 tds, 0 oskies, perfect 158.3 QB rating - the first visiting QB to ever do so at Green Bay's Lambeau Field (out of 424 games) I hope Baker has finally found himself a home in Tampa.

Re: OU Hires 2 QB Coaches

I suppose it's supposed to keep the wealthier programs from hiring 30 coaches. I'm not sure it's worked. OU's official page ( https://soonersports.com/sports/football/coaches?path=football ) currently shows 12 coaches and 30 support staff. Now, most of those support staff seem to be in administrati...
