I'm confident that Texas will win this year's red river rivalry as well so if anyone wants to lose another 5er to me, I'm in!



Yes it is, but OU are just a bunch of girly men anyway... :


Well I am going to go back to my original thoughts here since some people dont seem to get it. OU has more national championships then Texas and Florida...COMBINED! Isnt that what you play for? Yes I would have loved it if OU would have won all three of those games...but they didnt. The fact is, no matter how down they end the season they come back every year with a good team. OU has won more games since WWII than any program. They won titles in the 50s, 70s, 80s, and 2000s...indicating a tradition that does not die out. OU is not some school on a hot streak that will probably be out of the picture in 10 years, they will be there, playing in the big game. Will they lose some? Yes! Will they win some? Of course. The Sooners are on a bad bowl streak, but guess what? In 4 years you could be talking about how OU went on a tear and won 4 in a row. So I would not laugh...especially at a team who has played in 4 NCs in 10 years and won one.

I am very passionate about Oklahoma football as you can tell, and laugh at the fact that some people talk so much about the losing streak. It wasnt long ago that Stoops beat Tejas several years in a row (2000, 2001,2002, 2003,2004) but lately Tejas has played the better games. The same can happen to OU w/ bowl games. This year is the first year Oklahoma has had a very experienced QB at the helm since Jason White (with 2 bum knees). Since they we have had Bomar (the Freshman), Paul Thompson (a receiver turned QB), and Sam Bradford (an underclassman). Do not count OU out. Could we lose a bowl game? Yes. Could your team? Yup.

Enjoy!
