Because the resident powers in the East were all down. And you got crushed both times.

Just like when you made it to the BIG XII Championship game a couple of times because Nebraska, K State, and Colorado were all down in your division, and got crushed.

Same/Same

Kansas was the true national champion in 2007-2008. Best overall record in NCAA.

Well…the SEC East was dog shite for that entire decade so…the point stands. lol.

Like how much research did you do to make that argument? It’s dumb. Who cares. Nobody would know those stats, nor would they care unless you had enough time to dig it up. Did you know OU lost their bowl game the year they won their first national championship? No? Right, because nobody remembers that, they just remember the AP awarded the title to them before the bowl game.

How about this argument for why the SEC was dog shite and OU would’ve walked you like a dog that entire decade? OU made the playoffs four times…actually, before the NCAA became a welfare system and allowed 12 teams this year, the sec east didn’t have one representative in the playoffs..ever lol. Now THAT’s something people remember.

Memphis is a dump, Knoxville is meh, Nashville is what it is because of the talent and money from Oklahoma.

I'd say about .00001 seconds. Have you ever used a search engine? Talk about dumb.

LINK

This was akin to analog research. You're definitely gonna struggle with AI. Are you really old or something?

The SEC East was only dogshit during that time frame if you believe the AP is not the arbiter of college football rankings and champions, in which case you're going to have to question all the pre-playoff times the AP said OU was worth a shite! The AP concluded that teams in the SEC East were better than OU in the 2010's more often than not. Fact. Is AP only right when they like you and wrong when they don't?

...and before you jizz all over the summary rankings in that link, READ! The summary rankings are just CFN's arbitrary point system. CFN is not and has never been a nationally recognized ranking outlet. It's essentially a college fantasy football group sitting around a table tossing out arbitrary point values:

"Take all the AP final rankings and use our CFN scoring system – the AP national champion gets 25 points, the No. 2 team 24, No. 3 23, and so on down to the bottom." emphasis mine

Hmm...There is lots to do in Nashville, so maybe that correlates.

Let's compare with, say, the big 3 sports.

In baseball, Vanderbilt is ahead of Oklahoma, but we still have postseason left.

Basketball - pretty comparable, but, Vandy was ahead of Oklahoma.

Football - well, lookie there. Vandy was better than Oklahoma.

I guess that means that Oklahoma sports suck as bad as Oklahoma does.


We took 2 of 3 in baseball.
Beat you by like 100 in basketball.
F'off with comparing the football programs.

Does Mizzou have an easy schedule or all the tough games at home?

I love the arguments of testicle void eunuchs claiming when a team wins it's because the other team was "down"....or "injuries"....or "officials"....etc.

Man up girls....

Not sure what the rest of you guys are paying for away game tickets, but this seems off? Out of our 4 SEC Away Game venues next year, Oklahoma is certainly the least desirable to attend....so why double the ticket price?

Travel to a dumpy place to watch us biatch slap a dumpy team like last year and pay twice the price for the experience?


Well... my suggestion is that you stay up there in Missouri rather than put yourself out like that. Maybe some other Tiger fan will come and take in the atmosphere of a game in a place that has seven NCs and seven Heisman winners.
