Oklahomey

But at least it’s a program that has a history of national championships, unlike Fayetteville.

What Say You?

Historical accomplishments and accessibility over the years to top recruits clearly points toward Oklahoma. But how much of that is relevant today when anyone can pay anyone?

Texas A&M is a flagship institute with a large alumnus and unlimited funds. They are undefeated and their trajectory is strong toward the playoff. As of right now in this moment, Texas A&M is in great shape. Oklahoma is one loss away from essentially being eliminated from the CFP. TAMU could lose two of their remaining schedule and still be comfortably in because their resume is impressive.

It’s one year at a time. As of now, there’s a lot of doubt surrounding OU and into the future. Texas A&M has a great coach who is winning. The trajectory sure looks nice.

Politics outside of football is why Ole Miss didn’t get the nod in 1960. Rebels deserved the title at 10-0-1.

Previously unbeaten Missouri lost to Kansas late but was later awarded back the victory due to an ineligible KU player, but it was too late.

Minnesota at 8-1-0 was awarded both wire service polls before losing to Washington.

USC won their first national title in the poll era in 1962 going undefeated.

Georgia is currently experiencing their best period in their history for sure. But where were they in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 1984-2016? Georgia has THREE national titles which is still ONE less than Minnesota and the Gophers haven’t won a conference title since 1967 and national title since 1960.

Minnesota is used as a metric because they haven’t been relevant in nearly sixty years but still have more national titles than some current winners such as Georgia.

Don’t let facts get in the way of your hatred for Oklahoma.

Oklahoma will always be a top coaching position because of history, tradition, and easy access to Texas players.

Texas should be above Oklahoma. Texas, unlike OU, can come back from double-digit deficits and hang on to leads. Texas also has the H2H win.

Yes, every time you turn around, there is someone yelling, “BOOMER!” I’m glad your friends had a great time. We always show that hospitality.

I’m fine with Mateer. But whatever NFL expectations there were early in the season are far gone for now. He needs an extra year without an injury. A competent offense with some defense is what is needed. I’d take any of Riley’s teams over this current product.
