Mizzou, A&M, South Carolina, and Arkansas are not national championship caliber teams.

If they were, we would have seen them either win or lose in a national title game, which neither has happened in our lifetime. I'm not sold on the Arkansas, Mizzou, A&M bandwagon because these teams fail to bring home the trophy from a historical perspective.

It took the perfect storm and the ultimate choke job by A&M, Kansas State, and Florida State for Oklahoma to win a title in the 2000 season.

Here's Oklahoma's scoring average in BCS title games:

15 points per game

That INCLUDES their championship win.

This is what I love about some fan bases. They get spoiled and think things could never change.

Just because OU won a NC 15 years ago, you thought that OU would still be the who's who and still command national attention.

Did you know that Princeton University has the most NCs of any other program in the NCAA? What happened to them? What happened to Army and Navy? Georgia Tech? Minnesota? Yale?

As you probably know, it's called a paradigm shift. What worked before does not work now, and likely will never work again. The dynamics of college football have forever changed, and not in a good way for the Okies. You needed your overload to keep a thumb on Daddy A&M for you to remain relevant. They did it for many, many decades until A&M just got too big. It had to happen some day. The fricking longhorns couldn't be the 800 lb gorilla forever.

OU, like Princeton, Yale, Minnesota, Navy, etc, is the guy who was the all-district quarter back in your high school who owned the place, had all the girls, drove the nice car, had all the great parties. Dude thought things would NEVER change. He would always rule, right?

15 years later, he's a bald, fat douche still wearing his letterman jacket, working at Walmart. OU, just like baldy, is a has-been program that is squirming and fighting to get bevo's nutless dong out of its mouth so it can try to salvage mid-major level exposure. OU is a Texas-dependent program that has been completely marginalized with no upside, stuck in a shitty conference with no way to leave and nothing to offer.

The program suffering the most from Bowtie Loftin's 100 year screw-job is OU. We destroyed sooner football, and it makes me smile. You deserve it for attaching your mouths to bevy's cock.

Get another past-time, cuz A&M will win 10-20 NCs before OU ever wins another.
