It is now Friday, we're one day away from OU-Texas. This week has been a crazy but good one, people instantly becoming Texas Longhorns fans just because they know that I'm from Oklahoma and to get under my skin, they go the other way. Cool, I get it.
But understand this. Its a big deal. Truth be told, Texas scares the crap out of me. They have 5-star talent across the board, and Mack Brown is a great coach. Realize that The Mack was at North Carolina winning 10 games a season regularly. So, I think he has an idea of what he's doing. Its funny though to hear some of the commentary about the Sooners. Small Game Stoops. You how you get the name "Small Game" Stoops. By getting to the big games. Yeah, OU's run into some bad luck. But what's the difference between them and USC, Ohio State? USC's been losing to STANFORD and OREGON STATE over the last 3 years, yet they don't lose at the big game so they get a pass? Ohio State? Well...they're not getting a pass at all, they're getting it worse than the Sooners, so I feel bad for them too.
Look, we played Boise State who was a great team, with a WR Paul Thompson who was now our #1 QB, Adrian Peterson was not 100%, and we lost our #1 WR in Malcolm Kelly in the 1st quarter. But no one mentions that. We lost to West Virginia when Rich Rodriguez was there, that's not easy to stop and Oklahoma saw nothing like it in the Big 12. Not making excuses, but on any given day you can take that L.
Trust that this game has national championship implications, but its more than that. Truth be told, I like kicking it in Texas. Cute women, great food, and lots of opportunity in the Lone Star State. But they can't play college football better than us. As a matter of fact, Missouri can't either. Don't say Ed didn't warn you.
Oklahoma State 45, Missouri 42
Oklahoma 24, Texas 14

At this point, I'm simply ready for kickoff tomorrow morning.
I am going to go ahead and say good luck on the game, it is no secret that i am a Texas fan, but i can admit that OU is a huge threat. No matter the outcome i plan on enjoying my weekend and the game in Dallas. Hope you have fun too and be careful!
OMG yes Ed bruh you are definitely making excuses. When it comes down to it, if Chokelahoma is as good as you THINK they are then injuries shouldn't be a factor. If the mighty sooners have a better brand of football than in Texas (BLASHPHEMY) then you boys should have had some depth. Saying you had Paul Thompson at QB as an excuse doesn't cut it neither because he was the quarterback to get you up to that point. Rhett Bomar wasn't that much better but still...... and Adrian Peterson played his whole football career not at 100%....believe me I played against him a couple times. Face it when yall played Boise ya'll got DOMINATED up until the end of the 4th quarter. If that was an actually BCS school there would have been no double overtime. And Rich Rodriguez technically was not the coach during the fiesta bowl Bill Stewart was. And again you all got dominated that whole game. You Jokelahoma fans have lived in the past all week lets take it back to Jan. 2005 when you all got BLASTED by USC...notice a trend? And you all wonder why you get a bad rap. Jokelahoma and the OSU Suckeyes are a waste of valuable BCS time. And with that said Meet me at the CB I'll be there BBQing Turkey Legs and drinking my Lone Star Brew.
Ken - just tell me how confident you are in Missouri's defense? Then tell me if you don't think Oklahoma State doesn't have a punchers chance...I'll wait.
Princess - Be safe down there in D-Town, get a deep-fried cheesecake for me when you get a chance :)
hookem63 - You've been going in on me with Texas, and I understand your sentiments. But let there be no doubt, I do RESPECT Texas. Definitely do, but how can anyone talk as much sh*t about how much better they are when they are 3-6 since Stoops got there. Advantage Sooners. How can anyone feel like someone doesn't perform in the big game when you've only been to ONE BIG GAME? Oklahoma's been to 3. I'd rather get there and fail trying, then sitting at home watching and thinking how we could've done. Advantage Oklahoma.
Let me be clear, YOU CAN'T TALK SH*T ABOUT SOMEONE GETTING TO THE BIG GAME AND LOSING UNLESS YOU GET THERE AS MUCH AS THEY DO!!! You can't do it. Not possible. Texas got there one time with arguably one of the greatest college football players of all-time in VY10. I was even rooting for Texas when they played USC because I hate USC. Obvious reasons.
Oh, and I want a bottle of Stoli Elite Vodka when Oklahoma wins, thanks.
Ed, maybe I didnt acknowledge the fact that we haven't been to the big dance enough times. Congrats but BEYOND beating us in october how does oklahoma end up? They lose. And I as well respect the regular season play of oklahoma even though I think Jason White was the beneficiary of an offensive line similar to that of the Dallas Cowboys in the mid 90's. But honestly do you really think that Oklahoma plays better football than in Texas. And I gotta disagree Michigan/OSU is a better rivalry....except this year. 2006 The atmosphere of #1 OSU and #2 Michigan was the greatest thing I have ever seen in my life.
I definitely will! you know i had an extra ticket, didnt you?
I have to disagree. Not about OK State. I think they upset them because of their ridiculous special teams.
But I have to disagree with Oklahoma by 10. Oklahoma will run up the score. Sooners by 3 touchdowns.
