An ND fan riding the coattails of Indiana! Awwww, how sweet.

Florida, you’re up next….

to pull an Auburn and claim the 1984 and 1985 national titles. If not for conference title and postseason bans, Florida can make a claim to being the best in those two years. I know in 1984 they were crowned SEC champions but months later had it taken away.

Florida was AP #1 in early November before losing to Georgia. Had they won and won out, they could have stayed at the top.

1984: 9-1-1
1985: 9-1-1
OKLAHOMA

Lee Roy Selmon
Baker Mayfield
Brian Bosworth
Roy Williams

Honestly, this is hard to think of but I believe any OU fan most certainly would have Lee Roy Selmon on their list.

They do but I mean increase the number of those games to where it replaces the meaningless bowl in the same venue at the end of the year.

College Football history isn’t relevant? It’s a valid topic of discussion that has no relevance on OU being 0-5 in the CFP; two completely different discussions.
What does this have to do with the topic?

I used to think this was lame but then I compared it to basketball playing in off-campus early season tournaments. This would also eliminate pathetic non-conference/OOC games.

Pop-Tarts Citrus Classic Kickoff - would generate more publicity with the current antics they do to promote the silliness surrounding the game while having two quality power four teams.

“Big Name Sponsor” Kickoff In Paradise (where a majority of the Las Vegas strip is located) - big name power four matchup in a world class NFL stadium.

“Big Name Sponsor” Music City Matchup - power four teams from the region from different conferences.

“Big Name Sponsor” Battle At The Alamo - power four team from Texas vs. power four team not from Texas.

Each Power Four team plays one off-campus game, one G5 game at home, one home/away game on campus against P4, then open conference schedule.
TexAgs and SurlyHorns are basically the same. You have to be a homer, otherwise you will be banned.

Us Oklahoma fans don’t live on this board 24/7 like you do. Also, every thought in your brain doesn’t have to be a thread topic. Some of us were at the game and also posted on here during and after giving out congrats to real Alabama fans.
I was 13-15 during the Blake years. I remember well. Tickets were cheap. The only highlight of those three years was defeating eventual Big XII champion Texas in 1996.

Someone mentioned Gary Gibbs earlier. He had to follow a legend. He went 44-23 and wasn’t that bad.
I’ll go with John Blake since that disaster lasted three seasons.
Indiana winning the title would be the equivalent of 1984 BYU winning today just on name alone. Indiana would be a worthy champion because of who they beat en route to the title. They would be the first ever 16-0 national champion.
I’m a logo/graphics guy and I’ll admit, that’s quite impressive despite the negative connotation. But this loss was not a choke. Oklahoma wasn’t supposed to be in this position unlike 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019. The loss hurt but it’s not like this wasn’t expected. There was no disbelief when Mateer threw the INT for a TD. He was turnover proned. But he also played a solid game besides the one mistake.

Zipfizz > Celsius
Oklahoma’s 11+ win seasons that ended in a title:

1974: 11-0-0
1975: 11-1-0
1985: 11-1-0
2000: 13-0

Fewer games in the fifties:

1950: 10-0-0; title won before Sugar Bowl loss to Kentucky.

1955: 10-0-0; title won before bowl win.

1956: 10-0-0; title won, no bowl because of repeat rule.

So the SEC is pathetic? Got it. Tennessee and Alabama road wins don’t mean anything. OU played a tough schedule but you say it was nothing. Again, can’t be a fraud when they weren’t projected to do anything to begin with.

Playoff Quarterfinal Predictions

What say you? Here is my take…

It was a great game, even with the mistakes. From preseason projected to not win more than seven games to hosting a Playoff game, I’ll take it. You have to start somewhere.
Jacksonville is the largest city in Florida by population. The city surely has some appeal for people to live there.

Congrats on an extended field that got you those two wins. Just like OU, you’re 0-fer in the Semifinals.
