re: Where did all our Oklahoma friends go?

I'd agree that the attention level is different. No pun intended.

Starting after the ace woopin in 05 by USC, the Sooners national prestige took a sharp hit. When I lived in lower Alabama (Fort Rucker) from 04 to 06, Jason Campbell, Cadillac Williams were the thing in Bama. Back then, at least in Enterprise-Ozark-Dothan, Alabama sports radio down there didn't exist. Can't speak for today. SOONER!
