Nobody Gave Em a Chance!

Question

I am so proud of the way my Boys stood toe to toe and traded punch for punch with the SEC bad Boys of Bama. I heard for 2 weeks how Bama was going to make a statement against OU and how Saban was going to punish Stoops for his comments about calling some of the SEC stories "propaganda" and taking jabs at the SEC defenses. He acknowledged that he thought Bama was the best team in the country and that he looked forward to the opportunity to get play them. Even the announcers before the game gave OU no shot. I watched the line climb and climb and climb again. I won't lie...I gave OU a very slim chance at winning this game and thought often about betting on Bama but I just couldn't bet against my Boys. I went as far as to watch the Auburn/ Bama game again and I couldn't get over how easy Auburn moved the ball on the unbeatable Bama defense. Over the years Stoops has been under alot of criticism for not winning the Big game and I have defended him relentlessly because of his ability to get the Sooners into a BCS Bowl game, which he has more times than any other coach in the country. I told many that if OU could pull off this upset it would be the 2nd biggest win in his tenure at OU next to his 2000 upset of Bowden's FSU squad for the National Championship. Like him or not fellas you have to take your hat off to what he accomplished tonight having his boys ready to play in the Sugar Bowl and beating the SEC's best.. I couldn't be more proud of my Sooners!

Congrats to all who backed the

Boomer Sooners!!

Hoyasaxa · Answer

I called it right before kickoff-your boys are like the Cowboys-great dogs, poor favorites in big games...if Stoops could ever prepare with the best teams better, you&#x27;d have a few more trophies...

Congrats buddy!  Loved seeing that tonight!

buttnhelmet · Answer

Not taking anything away from OU, congrats for play and out coaching But Bama is spoiled , all they care about are title games.For a redshirt knight he was nasty good.

Crusher13 · Answer

Underlying message.....all those rumors of SABAN taking TEXAS job, I really feel motivated STOOPS to take this personal. His game planning, preparation and play calling was absolutely stellar

Love to see the BIG 12 smack down the mighty SEC(ie..southern dummies)

Congrats and totally agree with that 12(13?)-0 win over FSU as his biggest victories

Enjoy the moment..

PS That QB Price played lights out, future looks much brighter with him at the helm than Belldozer

PandaFade · Answer

Congrats to your boys!! Glad I was on them and the ML :D . Perfect set up to expose the weak ass SEC as my NOLES will do the same thing Monday night!!!

TREE88 · Answer

Thanks fellas.&#xD;&#xA;Just a great game between two traditional powerhouse programs and a great win for the Sooner Nation..&#xD;&#xA;Stoops will enjoy the moment but I can assure you he&#x27;ll be humble in doing so.&#xD;&#xA;Much respect for Bama.&#xD;&#xA;  .

BOOMER SOONER BABY!!!

I actually came came out dead even tonight with the OU ML hitting. I bet the UNDERS and went small on OU. So zero complaints from me.

I said aid it after the Bedlam game and I'll say it now.....the best coaching job Stoops has done since he has been at OU has happened this year. Now the pressure mounts for next year with his team being so young.

Everywhere is young on OU. And this win will absolutely help with recruiting, which was Stoops main pitch playing this game against Bama.....no doubt.

I dont know if Knight is the real deal although he looked it this game. But I do know Eric Striker is the real deal.....if he adds 15lbs then he'll be a 1st rounder (only a true sophomore)

I will also say that I've seen 2 games so far where the team didn't seem like they cared to be there: Arizona St and A&M.

I dont think Bama was disinterested to be at this game. OU just played a better game than most expected.

Me and you seem like 2 realistic OU fans (which being from Oklahoma is hard to come by).....so I'm sure we could have plenty to talk about.

Boomer sooner Tree!!!
