You are probably right. ESPN hasn't done a 30/30 episode on the OU/osu rivalry before. Plus we have had the fortune of dominating osu through the years, and we have never had to stomach them winning a NC like Bama fans have with the Barners.
OSU needs to talk to the Razorbacks about Alabama (and LSU). I am pretty certain that Bama and LSU would have beaten OSU even worse than they stomped the Hogs.
+1 I'm fairly certain that if both teams were playing playing to the best of their ability Arky would stomp OSU. Arkansas's defense is not great, but it is good enough to stop OSU 2-4 times and god knows that OSU's defense couldn't stop a high school team.
They keep talking about how many points they would have scored on either LSU or Bama they forget a couple Years ago OU was scoring 60 on all the Big 12 teams and got 14 on UF
So, they are admitting OU will get the chance to play an SEC team, in the BCSNCG, before their team, at any point in the future?
Ok, I was right. Awbarn of OK, destined to roam the wilderness for the next 40 years.
If they are lucky. Usually, it is around 50 years, for API.
Ah but that only happens once every 50 years or so. Don't look for it to happen again in your lifetime unless you are very young!! LOL
T. Boone Pickens is 83 years old. Will the cash keep flowing after he goes to that great wind farm in the sky?
You tell Oklahoma State that when their defense can go over 140 minutes since giving up their last TD (7:03 left in the GASU game) on defense, then they can talk about belong in the NTG but until then......shut up Cowboy fans.
playing in the big 12 is like playing on 8 foot rims. I'm a dunking fool on 8 ft rim...but I don't throw out my stats and call myself an offensive star.
In football math 200+200 is > than 500+50. 200 yards passing + 200 yards rushing (offense) will always win because the 500 yard passing offense will never get the chance to get 500yards passing.
I do believe that Ok state would have scored...about 10-14 pts however the margin of victory would have been > than 21. At min.Bama scores 45 pts. Note to Ok St - watch your team try to tackle the ISU full back in OT - when your ENTIRE SEASON was on the line and you had every thing to play for. Nothing fancy - just straight up the middle. Those 3 runs for 25 yards were made by a future CPA/Ins agent. Not the best running back in college.

Lol. I like OU more now that I see the inferiority complex they have to put up with, like we have to with the barn. OSU is just so annoying because this high-powered offense argument has been made before by the big 12 and PAC 12. Orange seems to be the color of Bama jealousy.
tell T. Boone if he is really serious, he would buy out one of our OOC games and set this thing up. let's see how serious he is then. otherwise he needs to SHUT UP.
I like the comment on one of the threads that asked ' where is the rematch with Georgia Southern, they scored more points than anyone against Alabama'. To be fair, some of the posters even said there was no way OSU would have beaten Alabama monday night, but would like to have tried.
the fact this will be talked about until spring ball is the reason there will be no playoff. the game stays in the news well after the BCSCG

WBS, I hate lumping your Sooners in with the negative big 12 comments. there has always been a special bond with the 2 fanbases that seems to be souring with the big 12 turmoil. Maybe a mutual good ole fashion hate of an urnge team will help make things right.
They'll probably get it in one big lump sum... and blow all of it on big, orange foam cowboy hats.
You want to know about the dominance of Big 12 offenses? Go take a look at the NFL receiving stats. Based on their high octane offenses, you'd expect the top 25 to be littered with all of that awesome Big 12 receiving talent, right? Well, you'd be wrong. If I'm not mistaken, there are two former Big 12 receivers in the top 25; Wes Welker (Texas Tech) and Jordy Nelson (Kansas State).
Wait... what?
No Dez Bryant? No Michael Crabtree? The multiple Bilitnekoff award winners aren't in the top 25?
Nope. Both (veterans) were beaten out by a couple of former SEC players (rookies). One of 'em named Julio I think y'all are pretty familiar with. How is it possible that a couple of guys from a vastly inferior offensive conference could possibly translate to the next level better than a couple of can't miss offensive phenoms? Well folks, it's pretty simple... Julio Jones and A.J. Green never got to run patterns unmolested in the SEC. Julio Jones faced an NFL caliber defense every time he stepped on the practice field.
It's kind of like the guy you know who's a really good golfer. He always shoots in the low 70s or better when y'all play on Saturday, but when the club championship rolls around, he blows up into the 80s. Why? There are no gimmies or mulligans in the club championship. Every putt must be holed and no poor tee shot goes unpunished. Same with the SEC. Jones and Green had spectacular rookie seasons because they were used to tight coverages and understood that a half a step meant that you were "wide open" in the NFL.
And, while we're on the subject of offense, what about quarterbacks? Surely there have to be a lot of really great Big 12 quarterbacks at the controls of some high powered offenses, right? Off the top of my head, I can think of two - the Bucs (Freeman) and the Jaguars (Gabbert) and neither of those would be what I call "high powered", since neither of the head coaches that were in charge when they were drafted are still there. Electric scooter? Maybe. High powered? Definitely not. There are two SEC quarterbacks (E. Manning and Tebow) still alive in the playoffs, along with two BigTen (Brees and Brady) and Pac 12 (Rodgers and Smith) quarterbacks, one from the ACC (Yates) and FCS Delaware (Flacco), but all the Big 12 quarterbacks are apparently on the golf course.
I saw that Justin Blackmon is listed in the top 10 on Kiper's big board. I just hope my Bucs don't wind up taking him. Sure, he plays big against the little sisters of the blind, but how is he going to do when it's time to play big boy football? I see him being one of the colossal busts in this draft for the reasons mentioned above. He was utterly frustrated against Stanford until some sort of change came from upstairs. He went from unable to get open to completely uncovered, so I have a feeling that someone noticed a hole in the coverage and they exploited it while they could. He was utterly unimpressive against Iowa State, and if you can't impress against a 6-7 team in college, I can't see you doing much in the NFL.
