I know that's all you have lol...

The fact of the matter is, It's taken the University of Oklahoma almost 100 years to lose 60 football games
quote:Did your quarterback also play on defense? Because that game did not end 14-0... it ended 49-0 (thanks to Texas not running it up more, which they 100% could have)
Congratulations on your squad beating a tight end at quarterback last year!
Guess Venables wasn't "blowing and going" hard enough

They won’t be in our championship game either. Just a couple more has been charity cases. Not really sure why they’re coming here.

He's right about Texas. They've only won the conference championship 3 times. The last time was 2005. Oklahoma has 14 conference championships. They last won it in 2020.
Another way of saying this is that Texas and OU have 17 of 28 possible Big 12 titles and former members Texas A&M, Colorado, and Nebraska have 4 more of them.
So current Big 12 members have won the Big 12 in only 7 of 28 years. Kansas State has 3, Baylor has 3 (1 was a tie w/TCU), Okie Light has 1, and TCU tied for 1 w/Baylor. The TCU title w/Baylor is pretty bullshite since Baylor beat TCU head to head but the Big 12 decided to call them co-champs in a weak attempt at bolstering their playoff chances.

We are so screwed with the refs this season.

'We don't need those two and I'm glad they are gone. The Big 12 will be equal, strong, and compete for titles'.
That's true, you're glad they are gone, they are glad they are gone and you will be playing for titles. Only Big 12 titles dude!

Im proud to be in the Big 12 . It will be interesting how they both do in the SEC since both were non-competitive the past couple of seasons.

Texas won after a fake second was added to the clock
It was the right call. They added a second to the clock for the Kick Six in 2013, they added a second in the Iron Bowl in 2019.
Review shows the ball lands out of bounds with a second still on the clock in all 3 of these, and I'm sure other lower profile games have had this happen as well. They're all the right calls.
I was rooting for Nebraska that game. Suh, individually, might have had the most dominating game from a singular defensive player I've seen in that game. But the call that was made was correct. It wasn't a "fake second" it was a second that shouldn't have ran off the clock to begin with.

While Oklahoma and Texas prepare for their final season in the Big 12, a lot has been made of their pending move to the SEC. A number of opinions were shared during Big 12 Media Days, as expected. But some staggering remarks came from the Big 12's Deputy Commissioner, Tim Weiser, during an interview with KC Sports Network.
The portion of the interview that primarily went viral was Weiser's claim he felt Texas' move to the SEC wasn't based on finances, but affiliation. Weiser said he felt Texas, in his example, would rather 'get beat by Alabama than Kansas State, or Florida than Iowa State'. While this instantly drew out the initial reactions, a comment made afterwards was equally notable. With this decision, allegedly, made by Texas, Weiser then stated he felt that Oklahoma was 'reluctantly' brought into the move alongside a program that has long been seen as an unspoken partner.
"In Oklahoma's case, I'm not as convinced that was the issue for them," Weiser said. "I think they were more of what I would call the reluctant bride, that kind of felt like if we don't go, what happens to the Texas vs. OU football game, basketball game and all the things that we know from an OU-Texas standpoint are really important."
"I kind of felt like if I was in Oklahoma's case, it would've been hard for me not to think about the long term," Weiser added. "Don't we want to be affiliated with Texas and, now, these other schools?"
Bringing this comment up to SEC commissioner Greg Sankey, he started off by saying he wasn't aware of the statement. But, after taking a brief pause, he gave his side. Emphatically denying this concept, the SEC's leader wanted to let it be known each program made the decision to move on their own at the highest level.
"Let me be clear," Sankey said. "That's fiction. Period. That's fiction."
"The outreach was from both, equitably," Sankey added. "It was done at a presidential level, directly and clearly. Joe Harroz and Jay Hartzell were both equally clear about their interest in joining the Southeastern Conference."
Weiser may have felt that one made the decision because of the other or because of a wanted change in perception. But Sankey felt strongly neither were ever the case during the process of finalizing the move. Texas and Oklahoma, in his eyes, simply wanted to join a conference based on the direction its taking.
"They, as I recall, said 'We've watched how you've led', which is a compliment to me, how our group has made decisions and how we function, and they want to be a part of that," Sankey said. "Clear as I can be."

That's all fine and good CharlotteSooner but ... it's all PR and politics and spinning and tap dancing in the end.
Texas and Oklahoma are joined at the hip. We all understand the concept, we all have similar relationships, in one form or another, with various rivals.
Alabama and Tennessee, Florida and Georgia (notice FSU and Ga Tech are not necessarily part of that equation), SC and Clemson, Kentucky and Louisville, Ole Miss and MSU, etc., etc., etc.
They were destined to make the move together.
How did it finally happen?
T. Boone Picket died. It's that simple.

I have no idea what your point is above. I just thought it was hilarious Sankey put the lil Kansas State Wildcat BIG XII commissioner in his place and cleared the record. He didn't have to do that.
The shite he said was obviously just petty nonsense.
