Might as well quadruple my post count.
We'd truly be the dumb redneck Okies that Texans think we are if we were neighbors with a +26 million populated, football loving state and DIDN'T recruit from it. But I actually have been saying for years that we tend to overlook homegrown Oklahoma talent and go after the Texas and California kids too much. Most people don't know that 4 of our 5 Heismans and the majority of all 7 national championship teams were born and raised in Oklahoma. For a state with less than 4 million people, we do pretty well. I get it though, I'd be a little ticked too if another state came in and snatched recruits away from the Oklahoma schools year after year.

Yes, yall have. Still hold the record for longest winning streak. What is it 46 games? That is unreal. I don't care who you play, it's tough to win 46 games PERIOD.
Can't wait till we play yall in a few years. I just hope it doesn't turn into a Jerry Dome Classic.
