I am just incredibly happy.

I was too nervous to watch and listened on the radio.


Same here, buddy. I'm 62 and this was the most fun I've had in a long time.

He was showing signs of slippage the longer he was in, so it may not be a bad thing if they have to use him.

There's some kind of twisted off person on here that down votes everything about OU 24/7. Nutbag. Guarantee she's a MO or Aggie fan. At least she's consistent.
There's 2 other brothers in that family also. Younger boys, maybe 17 and 15? Will be interesting to see where they play. Might already be recruits, not sure.

Yes.

The broadcast booth has been the most anti-OU group in the history of sports.

*how did ou whip georgia tech, this can't be real
*are you telling me this out team is still hanging around?
*alabama will crush this ou team, so funny.

I'm as conservative as they come on most issues, but despise Paxton, a dirty, dirty politician. The hardcore MAGA voters apparently don't care, they just vote for whoever Trump tells them to.


Paxton has skeletons in his closet on a personal level, but until now, he's been solid as a rock on conservative positions. He stepped all in it on this one.

Sorry you have TDS.
My list would be:

1. Mark Ingram
2. Greg McElroy
3. Matt Leinart
4. Joel Klatt
5. none of the rest bother me.
Georgia could dang near hitchhike to all their games this year. Except for the Razorback game. They actually have to jump on a bus or a plane. :lol:

I don't see why. Your first 6 weeks include playing absolutely nobody. Maybe State will get you, but they had a losing record last year. Other than that game, tell me who you're losing to by mid-season?

And to think the national media is not even covering this. Unbelievable.

Prayers from OK for all of you.
I'd like to know, too.

I think with a healthy Mateer, the upgraded receivers, plus an upgraded TE roster and coach, and a healthy XR and Blaylock - this team could make a run and surprise people in 2026.

Texas side. This was him. Looked a little like Jerry Reed.

By the way, your area is about to get inundated with new growth, as you know. New condos, Hard Rock Casino, all kinds of crapola.

I just remembered, I hunted ducks one time not far from where they're building that casino. A flooded flat on the Oklahoma side. Sad to see that area blow up with people.

I live within spitting distance from the Red River and Lake Texoma.

Lake Texoma is unique in that it is the only reservoir in the country that has a self sustaining striper population. Because they are a saltwater fish, they require very particular circumstances to be able to reproduce in a freshwater reservoir.

But this section of the Red, including Lake Texoma has a relatively high salinity due to the salt flats in the upper tributaries.

I'm on Lake Texoma 3-4 times a week busting stripers or going after big blue cats.


I've fished it about 3 times. Man I love it. The last time was with a guide that had a cabin next to his main residence where clients could stay overnight. Get up the next morning and he drives you to the ramp, which is about 1/2 mile or less from his house. Wish I could find that guy again.

re: Ou roster in 2026

The offense is upgraded on paper, but it still has OC benarbuggle.

His QB serves as the primary rusher, as this held true with Mateer in his first year at OU and his last year at Wazzu. In back-to-back seasons, his QB led the team in rushing attempts and yardage. Not the running backs.

So, it doesn't really matter who the RB is. He isn't utilized very often. Nor is the tight end position. Some are hoping BV will, or already has, modified the offense to include a bigger role for asst. coach, Kevin Wilson.

There was a company out of Oklahoma that made great mayo called Griffin's. Not sure if they're still around.

1. Griffin's
2. Duke's
