While your comments about donors in Memphis is an interesting one...
That might affect UT's donor relationship, but I'm not so sure that's true. They always have the Vol Caravan that comes to Memphis and with the primary medical school being in Memphis, they have a solid anchor here for support. Lots of docs in Memphis are big supporters. But Memphis also has a large Ole Miss alumni base. I see as many if not more Ole Miss alumni.

frick it, I’ll play. Just based of my opinion that doesn’t mean shite tbh.
1. Bama (a truly elite coach + bama= multiple natties)
2. UGA
3a. LSU
3b. Texas
4. Oklahoma
5. Florida
6. Auburn
This is about right. Texas wins for resources, but Alabama still has that "thing" that makes it the elite job in the conference. Sark and Kiff would have both been happy to have that job given the chance.
And for all our historical success at OU, I think most people would consider it easier to build a championship program at LSU, Georgia or Alabama. That makes it a better job, and their recent titles bear that out. And Texas, simply because of the money and their in state talent base. We still depend on kids from Texas to make our program successful.
I can see why Alabama fans hold the Saban years so closely to their hearts. It was a magnificent run that will likely never happen again. Looking forward, however, isn't nearly as fun right now. There's a lot of trepidation in Tuscaloosa.
Everyone loves this lady. She's doing all the right things the right way, and she looks damn good doing it!
We did gassers with leg lifts. After one particularly bad loss, we did them for damn near an entire practice. Goal to goal ten times. Leg lifts. More gassers. Leg lifts. On a Monday. Parents were waiting for us in the parking lot with the their headlights on.
Teddy said Stone clearly looked like the best player on the field the other day. Can't wait to see him ruin some people.
Who wouldn't want to be coached by that guy? Such a major win for OU to have him with our TE group.
Look for Kyla Keffer to have another big season. Really a fine player.

The Corn has a pretty special program. The place is always packed. A lot of people think they are the dominant program, but they've only won 1 title in the past ten years. Same as Kentucky. Stanford has 3. Texas has 2.

I was thinking the same thing.
Probably Baker, but I could also make a case for Steve Owens or Tony Casillas.

Bama doesn't have 16 national titles, lol.
They claim 18. I think 16 are recognized.

My concern is that over use of the aquifer under East Arkansas and Memphis is already a problem. The more water that gets pumped out for data centers the worse the situation is likely to get.
It's a valid concern. Musk has reneged on a promise to build a wastewater facility in Memphis, but has announced more data centers are coming. Memphis was an easy target, because the city has almost no economic development and is in a fiscal hole. Desperate people, low utilities and a lot of water. Of course he picked Memphis.

There is poor and then there is Delta poor.
As cotton declined, so did the Delta. This accelerated in the 1940's as mechanization in farming took hold. People simply could no longer find work.
And now another major change is taking place. Gaylon Lawrence, the billionaire that bought Wilson, Arkansas, is converting most of his cotton producing land to solar production. Google is buying up 80%o of the energy for a data center in West Memphis.
This is a significant development. Not so much because it's going to create jobs (it won't), but because it perhaps signals the end of an era in the Delta. Cotton will never be "king" again.
Love it, OU Guy! You're the MAN.

OU has a great history and program but frankly, it’s not close between Alabama and OU. And no one is very close at the moment to OU for #2,
Well, OU does lead the series in head to head games. Alabama is ahead in most categories, but it's closer than you're suggesting.
Alabama-OU
.733 to .721
16 national titles to 7
81 to 59 in bowl games
988 to 968 all time wins
429 to 429 in NFL draft picks
87 to 83 in consensus All-Americans
4 to 7 in Heisman winners
908 to 922 weeks in the poll
34-50 in conference titles

Being a Memphis fan and a nearby resident, you should be a Cardinals fan. Are you on the LA bandwagon?
I don't think there are 8 teams better than us. We can beat every team ahead of us. People are always bearish on OU because we haven't won a title for over 25 years, past defensive woes, lack of a running game last year. There's always something holding back voters. I think all of that changes this year.

Texas v OU should be on the list
Definitely my favorite. The venue, the Texas State Fair, the bitterness of the rivalry. It goes back over 100 years and to things that had little to do with football including the Bridge War. It just seems to be the most culturally colorful of the rivalry games.
