where they dominated their rivals on and off the field (recruiting, revenue, exposure, etc.) and enjoyed an easy path to the playoffs every year. That's all gone now and their move to the SEC has not worked to their advantage. And they're having a down year at a time when Texas and A&M are gaining all the momentum. If they don't turn things around soon, they could very well end up going the way of Nebraska.

No, what we’re going through is a much deserved wake up call for our Admin.

Their entry was not at the best time.

This OU team would not have competed in the B12 either. Their woes have nothing to do with the SEC.

Reverse TX and Ou's schedules this year and how does the narrative change?

They made their bed when they let Dillion Gabriel walk,

I don't think much changes. OU's problems are bigger than what conference/schedule they have.

This move will be better for Oklahoma in the long run than several big win seasons where y'all get blown out in the first round of the playoffs.

I don't think y'all are the next Nebraska. I think y'all needed the step up in competition to drive you to use your considerable assets to build a modern championship program.

It's like Oklahoma when Stoops took over. Everything was there but the person to make it all happen.

GTF out of here with logic that requires more than 5 seconds of thinking. Some of these jackwads think we'd still be winning like we've always done, had we just stayed in the Big 12, especially the aggs and Mizery fools

They had three losses in the B12 last year.

They were 6-7 in 2022.

They just need to go through a coaching change and make the right hire. They’ll be fine eventually. They’ll probably never enjoy the consistent success they’re used to but they’ll be competitive in the SEC from time to time.

Jeezus, Aggie...why start a thread like this? All you are going to do is get some LSU jack-off to say something like "Yes, and so should have Texas, Mizzou, and you."

Ya that Houston game was definitely my “oh shite” moment. It was obvious they had no talent and we barely survived.
