OU has also won 10 games for 4 seasons in a row and I believe they will win 10 games and finish in the Top 10 every year Stoops coaches there. Bud Won 3 titles. Switzer Won 3 Titles. Stoops has Won 1 so far. But he did it quicker than Bud and Switzer did. Not to mention his program has leaped to the top quicker than the ones they ran. Stoops record at OU is something like 65-11 in 6 years and only ONE loss at home in 6 years. The guy is amazing. Add to all that the fact that he's a great recruiter. I don't see how OU won't be at the Top every year with this guy. The only time I can think we're going to have a bad season(under our standards) is next season when we lose 18 starters. Our entire wide reciever core, half the offensive line, half the defensive line, most of the secondary, some of the linebackers, and the QB. All we'll have left is AD. But then again he'll probably carry us to 10 games and a BCS bowl.

Actually OU was dominant as well b/c of Wilkinson and Switzer until the 90's then Stoops picked back up and started winning titles again. So while USC may have only not been good during the 90's....so was OU. And I gurantee you that OU will have more titles than Alabama before Stoops is done coaching.

Well cabbage if you can't be convinced then you're beyond help. Also if you can't accept a broken hand, foot, and bad knees as a reason for falling flat on your face then you must demand superman like qualities out of all athletes. I don't think any athlete can put up Heisman numbers when his throwing hand is broken, his foot is broken, and his knees are so bad that it's physically impossible for him to start under center. Wow I don't think any athlete could fight those odds! Does superman play in every game you watch? Please I already detailed why White deserves the Heisman and why he deserved it last year. It's pretty hard to argue with the numbers the guy put up and what he fought back from. Not to mention with his broken hand he still threw for 300 yards against KSU. However when you're sacked over 10 times in a game your vision gets a little blurry. Oh and For Arguments Sake was very good this week: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?page=argument/1118

I'm still all on top of the world after my meeting today. Now I have to meet AD and Bob Stoops and I can die a happy man. That and 2-chicks at the same time......

Do you think you get that high when you're running from an Emu like you do from a dangerous animal. You know the one where your brain overtakes your body and says "Run fucker! I don't care if you're tired!" and then you have like amazing stamina?

Ya know Bored there was a certain twinkle in his eyes when he looked at me......maybe it was the concussion maybe it was something else......
-
I've said that about 1000 times. Actually my real name is Jason Ryan, but I go by my initials.
-
I'm not saying he's the best college player ever. In my post I detailed why he deserved the Heisman Trophy the first time and why he deserves it this year. And why he's the best QB in OU(keyword here OU) history and possibly the best player in OU history. And I'm not saying OU is the most elite team in history. If I said that earlier I apologize. What I'm saying is they are ONE of the most tradition ridden and ONE of the most elite in history just based off everything I said they've done and will continue to do thanks to Bob Stoops. Also I would like to say that I met Jason White today. I was talking to an old professor in the hall at school and White walked up and said "You know you're the only teacher's class I've gotten less than a B in?" and I turned around and said "Don't feel bad I got a D in his class." and he just started chatting with both of us. He introduced himself to me. He held out his hand and I was like "Nice to meet you. JR O'Dell." and he goes "Nice to meet you too. Jason White." I had to resist going "No shit dude." But he stands about eye to eye with me but that dude is ripped to hell. He's skinny in the stomach region but his arms are f'n muscular. Another funny thing......they had a cartoon in the school paper today that had a guy standing in front of a map of Oklahoma and he said "Oklahoma is in the great plains region everyone! That's right the plains. So next time a coach from Nebraska calls you an f'n Hillbilly inform him that you're a redneck." It was kind of funny.......b/c it's true......hillbilly's live in the mountains. There's no mountains in Oklahoma!

They're fast becoming that way. Don't deny it. I don't think I've ever met anyone in between about OU. People either love them or hate them at this point. And most people hate them. That's a sign you've reached big time. Not to mention everything I just laid out. Longest winning street in NCAA history, 7 National titles, more wins than any team since WWII, highest bowl winning percentage ever, 4 Heisman Trophy winners, 38 Conference Championships, 23 Bowl Titles, 138 All-Americans, 51 National Award winners. That resume is staggering. They may not be the most elite program ever.....but they are ONE OF THE most elite programs in history. One of the most storied and tradition ridden. And one of the most elite. There is no denying that.
-
Cases can be made for all of them. But a case can be made for OU to. Sure they don't have 12 National Titles. But they have 7 and will have about 10 by the time Stoops is done coaching. It's like Sass said. They've become the NY Yankees and LA Lakers of College Football. They're good and are tradition ridden and they will remain that way for as long as we can see. I mean the programs only had one down period(the 90's) and then it took right back off.
-
Hmmmm... Do you have every post I've ever made logged? Scary...... That was before I knew jack about football. You all know I only hardcore got into sports last year. I watched off and on and knew a little bit. But then I quit watching wrestling and whenever I get into something(anything: wrestling, comic books, video games, and now sports) I put A LOT of time and energy into it and a lot of emotional involvement. So while I may not have been a hardcore sports fan very long at all I'm probably more emotionally involved in it than most fans. And when I said I don't think I was wrong I meant in relation to Auburn and the National Title game. Oh and OU may have lost some bowls but they still have the highest bowl winning percentage of all time. Couple that with 7 National Titles, 4 Heisman Trophy winners(probably 5 after this season hell 6 before Peterson is gone), and the Longest Winning Streak in History and you have a pretty damn impressive organization in Norman. And Sass I get your point about Earl Campbell. What I'm saying is that Jason White is a really good player and he deserved the Heisman last year b/c of his ungodly stats. And he was the MVP team of his team. When he went down the team went down. He was basically the heart of the team and when he turned into a statue with a bad throwing hand standing in the backfield b/c of injuries his team's heart was basically ripped out. This year without him OU wouldn't be undefeated. He's pretty much saved everyone of OU's games save the Texas game. I've only doubted that OU was going to win ONCE this season and that was against Texas A&M. And after White threw his first TD pass I realized that I didn't have to worry. The guy is in complete control of every football game he plays. He's a general on that field. He's calm and cool and he's god damn good at what he does. If you deny that then you have a problem. He is probably the greatest QB in OU history and I know this doesn't matter to ANY of you or anyone else but it does to me in that he's probably the most beloved player in OU history as well. The guy has commanded every game he's been in this season. He's kept his team in every game. He's returned from an ungodly Heisman season and put up great numbers again. He's the leader of an undefeated college football team playing in the 3 best conference in the country. He won the OSU and A&M games by putting the ball in his reciever's hands when he had to. Yeah Peterson helped in the OSU game but White did a lot of the work. He's thrown for over 2300 yards and 28 TD's this season. He's only thrown 4 picks. I mean his body of work this season speaks for itself. He deserves that Heisman. Hell I'll tell you why this guy is so damn good. This is a guy that was a running QB. He was an option oriented running QB. He tore the ACL in his right knee. He was out for the whole season. He came back and Nate Hybl was the starter. He won the starting job back from Nate Hybl. He tore the ACL in his left knee. He was out again. Any normal person would be out for good. He returned with knee braces on his knees at about 75% health. The guys knees were so bad that he couldn't start under center b/c it was nearly physically impossible for him to drop back. Let's not forget this guy was a running QB. He comes back last season with those health problems and not being able to do what he's spent his whole career doing. The guy comes back and throws 40 TD's and 5 INT's all season. He becomes a pocket passer and starts in the shotgun nearly all year b/c he can't start under center nor can he scramble. He has to take sacks or throw it away. Yet he still plays. He leads OU to an undefeated regular season and blows out opponents by an average margin of 50 points per game. Then comes the KSU game. By this point his knees are so bad that he shouldn't even be playing football. But he starts. He's also gained weight by this point b/c he can't even f'n work out b/c jogging is nearly impossible. So he plays that game and he breaks his hand. His throwing hand. He's also dizzy and loopy from being sacked so much. He still throws for over 300 yards. He doesn't throw any TD's however....but that's understandable. The guy has no vision when he's on the field he's messed up so bad by this point. He wins the Heisman trophy which was a given at that point. He goes into the Sugar Bowl with his knees still as bad as they are and his hand broken but NO CAST b/c he was trying to hide it. The OU program as a whole refused to release his injury information b/c as they said "We don't want it to be an excuse." He gets sacked 13 times against LSU b/c he can't scramble. He has to take the abuse. He gets his foot broken in that game. But he still tries. By all means he probably should've been yanked but he would've refused. So he has all those ups and downs. By all means the guy should be on anti-deppressants by this point. But he comes back this year completely healthy. Now he has a run game to back him up and he's 100% healthy. He can scramble and everything. He comes back and still puts up Heisman numbers and leads OU to being undefeated and well I covered what he's done this season above. So to deny how good the guy is is just absurd......I mean look at all he's been through and all he's done. The guy has won 21 games in 2 years. If he'd been a 4 year starter he would've shattered Peyton Manning and now David Greene's win record. So yes he's no Earl......but he does deserve to be a 2 time Heisman Trophy winner and he deserves to be remembered.

Well when your top corner is gone.....the defense got shaky when he was gone. Plus Archie Griffin won two Heismans. Check your factoids bud. And on top of all that I may be a homer but I'm not wrong. And I don't think I ever have been. OU is one of the top programs in history.....sorry it's true.
-
Actually Kentucky ended a long win streak in the late 40's and Kentucky ended that. But the 47 game winning streak was ended by Notre Dame in like 1957.
-
Well there's way less chance of getting run over by cars on college campuses. Plus hippies that want to feed the animals litter every college.
-
Yeah well I don't understand all the OU/Auburn talk anymore either. ESPN should justs come out and say what the board figured out. "We here at ESPN would like to end the Who's #2 talk by letting you all know that unless Oklahoma loses or Auburn takes a huge lead on them in the polls or even jumps to #1 which is likely to not happen then the Orange Bowl is not in doubt. People in Oklahoma and LA need to book there travel reservations now."
-
At OU I get attacked by Squirells as well. I think OU has the world's largest concentration of squirells. It's a breeding ground! They're everywhere and it is almost like they're domesticated. People feed them and they will follow you and walk up to you for a handout. But if you don't have anything they get PISSED. I've had them follow me on my way to class chattering away at me. They'll sit in trees above the sidewalks and yell obscenities in squirell language at you. It's a nightmare.

Prepare for Baylor? Who prepares for Baylor? Anyways he wasn't actually spreading a conspiracy theory b/c he also said that he's no trying to indicate a bias. He and Tubberville have both brought up valid points b/c they both questioned "Why is USC exempt from all this discussion about who belongs where?"
-
Yeah poor Boston College. The Big East doesn't deserve an auto-bid. It's such a terrible conference.
-
Utah, Texas, and Cal can't all play in a BCS bowl. It's 2 out of 3. There is only two at large bids and the winner of the Big East gets a bowl.
-
Big man with the glass in front of you hehe. This isn't really a chase story but when I was at the OKC Zoo I walked up to a monkey cage that had chimps in it. One was sitting up on top a hill looking at me and my friends. He was doing just fine then my friend Lisa walked up. He didn't like her to much b/c he started shooing us. Like waving his hand at us to go away. She just stood there and then he picked up a rock and threw it at her. Since there wasn't any glass there it hit her and she ran off and he was complacent again.
-
Ok so if OU gets shut out of the Orange Bowl(which at this poinit is looking very bloody unlikely) then where the hell does Texas go if they get into a BCS bowl?
-
I knew there was a mastermind behind it all.
-
Is it just me or do a lot of people get chased by giant birds?

Yeah someone has an Emu farm out near my grandparents land. I thought it was weird at first. I was like "this is Oklahoma. You'd think there'd be farms everywhere. I've never seen one and when I finally do they have freaking EMUS!"
