Its only natural for Kansas State fans to have such disdain for OU. They have won something like 18 of 91 game in the history of the series. The smell KansasStateCat smells when he drives through Norman is the stench left from all the ass rapings Kansas State has taken at the hands of OU over the years. Plus, dude tried to get the mods to ban Austin because he chose to express and opinion in a thread which differed from his own. Vagina much?

in College Football The main thing affecting the bias of BCS (whether real or imagined) is where teams are ranked at the start of the season. Good examples are the Oklahoma team of 2000-2001 and Auburn in 2010-2011. The only way either of those teams could have played for the NC was if they went unbeated............because neither were highly thought of at the beginning of the year. Obviously, South Carolina, Arkansas and Georgia were overrated at the start of this year.............and accordingly, their losses hurt them much less, rankings wise, than a team (of equal or higher quality) that was ranked lower or unranked at the start of the season. This has been going on forever.....long before the BCS. It hasn't always been the SEC, but instead has usually been the elite programs nationwide (Alabama-Ohio State-USC-Oklahoma-Florida State-Florida, etc). Just so happens that, with the SEC dominance of the past 6 years, many of the "chosen" are currently in the SEC. And, having a juicy TV deal with the primary source of NCAA football doesn't hurt either. |

Alabama lost at home. Oklahoma State lost the same day their women's basketball coach was killed in an accident. Alabama didn't even win a division of their conference. Their are valid points on both sides.

The facts show that DUAL is having a much better season picking football games than you are. Your personal attacks on him are as bad as what the haters do to you. Be the bigger man..........even though statments like "Me and Train are here to stir shit up" (paraphrased)........make you look more like a kid than a grown man. Good luck on your bets this week! |

Too fast for the Irish. OU also gets back senior defensive tackle Stacy McGee who should make it significantly more difficult for Notre Dame to run between the tackles. When the smoke clears Saturday nite we will all agree that OU had the best defensive unit on the field.

Nobody is a bigger Snyder supporter than I am, but that wasn't the issue. You (and others) bash the shit out of Stoops and imply that he's getting the same quality of recruits that Saban or Mack Brown get. Simply not true. I'm not gonna dig up Stoops bowl wins and losses.......which ones he was favored in........what defines a big game, etc........thats been debated over and over. He does own is biggest rival (Texas), up to this point has dominated the Big XII and has an overall record of 144-35. I have a feeling that more than a few of the teams you highlited would swap head coaches with OU. Has he laid a few eggs? Certianly Is he one of the best coaches in the country? I say he is......you say he isn't.......somehow I doubt either of us will change the other's opinion.

Young people don't often realize just how bad, historically, the Kansas State program was before Snyder. The school had only 4 winning seasons from 1935-1990.

Auburn, Alabama, Texas, USC, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Georgia, Ohio State and Notre Dame, to name a few, have all brought in higher rated recruiting classes various times over the last 5 years (compared to Oklahoma). Stoops gets a bad rap, and facts do not back up your claim.

The Sooners were 24pt favorites and from what I understand partied real hard the night before the game figuring it was in the bag: The 1978 Orange Bowl was a college football bowl game played on January 2, 1978, featuring the Arkansas Razorbacks against the heavily-favored Oklahoma Sooners. The #6 ranked Razorbacks were coming off a 10–1 season, but were considered to be heavy underdogs against the #2 ranked Sooners. The #1 ranked Texas Longhorns and their star running back Earl Campbell had just lost the 1978 Cotton Bowl to Joe Montana and the Notre Dame Irish, thus giving the Sooners an almost sure bid for the national championship title if they defeated Arkansas. To make matters worse for Arkansas, first year Arkansas head coach Lou Holtz had suspended three players prior to the game for team violations. Two of those players, rushing backs Ben Cowins and Donny Bobo, had together accounted for 78% of the points scored by the Razorbacks that season.[1] On the other hand, the Oklahoma Sooners were led offensively by their future Heisman Trophy winning running back Billy Sims and on defense by their safety Darrol Ray, defensive tackle Dan Hampton and linebacker Daryl Hunt. Although the suspended Arkansas players protested, Holtz refused to back down and the suspensions stood. Already considered a heavy underdog to Oklahoma, with the loss of those starters Arkansas was expected to give little competition in the game. Arkansas was an 18 point underdog prior to the suspensions. After the suspensions they were given as 24 point underdogs by Las Vegas, Nevada odds.[2] The 1978 Orange Bowl would in all likelihood be the game that decided the National Championship. And it did in many ways, but not in the way that most expected.[3] Backup running back Roland Sales started for Arkansas in the place of Ben Cowins. With Sales doing most of the running of the ball, Arkansas out-rushed Oklahoma 126 yards to 116 yards in the first half, with Billy Sims fumbling the ball early in the first quarter causing the Razorbacks to recover on the Oklahoma 9 yard line. That resulted in a Sales touchdown followed by a PAT by Arkansas kicker Steve Little. Another Oklahoma fumble by Kenny King resulted in another Arkansas touchdown rushed in by Arkansas quarterback Ron Calcagni in the first quarter. In the second half Sales would rush for another touchdown, Brian White rushed for a touchdown and Steve Little kicked a field goal. During the fourth quarter Oklahoma scored a touchdown but the two point conversion attempt failed.[1] For Arkansas, in total Roland Sales rushed 22 times for 205 yards setting an Orange Bowl record. He also received 4 times for 52 yards and rushed for 2 touchdowns. Arkansas defeated Oklahoma 31–6. Sales' Orange Bowl rushing record stood for 20 years until broken by Ahman Green in 1998 when Green rushed for 206 yards in the Orange Bowl. Roland Sales and Arkansas teammate Reggie Freeman were named MVPs for the game. Arkansas finished the season ranked #3 in the nation behind #1 ranked Notre Dame and #2 ranked Alabama OU was not a 24 point favorite...............it was closer to 17. Get your facts straight. |
