Re: Sounds Like "Super Conferences may be Coming Soon!"
Back when I used to follow realignment on the edge of my seat, Swaim's name used to come up as though he was someone in the know and he was ALWAYS wrong. No offense Wishbone. I haven't followed it that close for several years now but I have to think if Swaim called Washington and Oregon it was along...

Re: Stupid Football Questions
I’ve always thought of football as the ultimate ‘role player’ sport. Most sports, you really need to be blessed with a certain body type or certain gift first before you can even be considered a possible competitive candidate, and then coaching, attitude, and work ethic come into play. But with foot...

Re: Crazy day for me yesterday!
Bald eagles are some beautiful creatures. I don't think I ever saw one in OK, though I know they exist there. Spent some time in Alaska when I was young just a bit over 20 years ago. Bald eagles in Alaska are like pigeons in NY. But unlike the pigeons, the eagles will eat your cats and steal your ca...

Re: I had to share this with you!
lol
I would like to see some of the replay review of that. Two of the laterals looked like they might be forward for one, and also would have liked to see the 'fumble/tackle/recover/nonrecover' thing where everyone stormed the field.

Re: I said I was not going to watch the super bowl I lyed
Except for the Super Bowl, I don’t really watch NFL. Football is more fun with a rooting interest so for years now my blanket policy is to root for the team with the most Sooners, real Sooners… not the ones that list their HS or some other college. So, KC was my team of the night. Wouldn’t have hurt...

Re: Who was the most accurate recent QB
Rattler also ran for his life when he didn’t have to and actually created some of his own pressure. But that’s not really related to just accuracy. He did have an incredibly fast release and a strong arm. That fast release is what I remember the most from Rattler. I’ll still say Bradford was the mos...

Re: Who was the most accurate recent QB
Id have Bradford first if all we’re talking about is accuracy.

Re: How Does The NCAA Stop This and When?
Ironically, if college football is to retain any of the characteristics that separates itself from the NFL, it will have to institute NFL-like mechanisms. Restrictions on free agency and something that resembles a salary cap are two items I can see coming in the near future. Well, there WAS restric...

Re: Predict OU record 2024 regular season
I would like to point out that LSU was 81st in scoring defense and 108 in total defense and lost their Heisman QB Jayden Daniels. I dont see why people are so high on LSU. :confusedplus: :confusedplus: :confusedplus: In the same tune, I don't understand why some people are so high on Texas. They wo...

Re: Michigan was the first team since......
I didn't get to watch much of last night but I did watch both the games last week and I thought Michigan's lines looked clearly much MUCH more physical than the other three. I kinda figured due to that Michigan would pull away sooner or later and win comfortably last night. I wonder what the four ye...

Re: Crazy portal question- not OU specific
I kind of think of it the other way. With the portal, if you're a major brand, why would you sign ANY high schooler who wasn't 5* caliber, or at least 5* caliber per your own talent observation? Take THOSE players from high school. Take the rest from the portal... the 5*s that don't fit where they w...

Re: Tim Brando
College football has been corrupted into a pro sport. Saying it’s not corrupt because it’s a pro sport misses the point imo.

Re: College Football Playoff Thread
Best vs Deserving. How do we measure “the best”? Eye test? Why play the games then? Results on the field? Isn’t that a measure of “deserving”? I’ll go with most deserving every time since it respects results on the field which is some order of Washington, Michigan, FSU, and Texas. I’m sure committee...
