Re: "Game of The Century" were you there?

... I WAS THERE!!! I had become acquainted with OU halfback Joe Wylie my senior year in HS and the '71 Game of the Century was a tough ticket, but Wylie managed to get two tickets for me & my father. We picked them up at what was the "will call" window in those days. Ironically, Wylie...

Re: Looking into the Future - 2025 Opponents

...the SOONERS might be defending their first SEC Title in 2025.(OR possibly even their 8th Natty.) :dude: 7 home games in Norman. Don't think Michigan will be the same team without Harbaugh. This is what most wanted to see, moving to the SEC! I think the program will be challenged, but ready for it...

Re: Is it a snub?

Not a snub - we didn't deserve a bid. ...I agree! Even with the first 20 win season since Buddy left. Think Moser will be back, but also think he's sitting on a heater for year 4. :cool: The rash of injuries were a factor down the stretch, and can't help but think the relative blowout loss to the s...
