We need to run some screen passes where you are not required to block the D linemen. There. That's positive. I really hope to see one or two or three of the O linemen to step up and show some fiery leadership.

I don't know about all the players, but I want it really bad. Saturday evening Sark will either be 3-2 and 3 of the last 4 vs. OU or with a losing 2-3 record vs. OU. OU sucks and Will Rogers never met Barry Switzer.

I cannot think of an adjective that properly describes this performance. Offensive line play is where football success builds from, and this season I'm not seeing it. Right now, I'm not at all worried about what the playoff committee thinks.

I was also at the 1984 monsoon tie game. Ranked #1 before the game and it felt like a complete loss to me. Fred's conservative play calling was on display that day, or maybe our offense just wasn't up to rain game against a good defense. A forgettable game in my book.

Firing head coaches in September, it's a brave new world. Were these schools really expecting something different in August?

Is Dabo finished?

Did OSU's competitive days die with Boone Pickens? Or did they fire Gundy because of his stance on NIL?

I remember the Sorry Bastards thing. It was true unfiltered hate and those of us that lived it have never forgotten it.

Very true. I think it contributed to Royal's early retirement.

Regarding OU spying: As I recall Royal accused Switzer of spying on his practices and offered Switzer his yearly salary if Switzer could pass a lie detector test. There were reports of the coaches seeing a man watching practice from a distance. Switzer refused the lie detector test and called Royal an old man that spent too much time listening to country music. Their feud came to a head in 1976. Gerald Ford was running for president, and somebody convinced him to appear near midfield during pregame alongside Royal and Switzer. The entire stadium booed loudly, and Ford's pregame move backfired largely. The game ended in a 6-6 tie, and it sucked for everyone involved. Any of you old farts with a better memory feel free to add corrections.

1972 the land thieves had our quick kick figured out before the ball was snapped.

I am verklempt! Now watch out for those trick plays.

Faking out the cameraman is a desirable trait.

Count me as not surprised. There was flagrant DPI by OU that went uncalled also.

Home games are better at night. The crowd is more into it. 11:00 o'clock games not so much.
