Gundy's System???

So, how do you become one of the Have’s in college football? You go out and find a billionaire who wants to make your football program the primary benefactor of their philanthropy. We are a little fuzzy on the exact numbers, but it’s safe to state that T. Boone Pickens has donated or pledged to donate several hundreds of thousands of dollars to making Oklahoma State football a Have.
The second thing Oklahoma State did right was to hire a quality coach in Les Miles in 2001. In the five seasons before Miles took over, the Cowboys had one winning season and won 46.43% of their overall games. During Miles’ four seasons at the helm, the Cowboys had only one losing season, won 57.14% of their games, and had a nine win season for the first time since Barry Sanders’ senior season in 1988.

NCAAF 2013 PLAYED OUT LIKE THIS
Game 1: #23 Oklahoma State 48 – Savannah State 14
Cowboys’ record: 1-0
Real Mike Gundy went with true freshman Wes Lunt, so Virtual Gundy did the same thing. Didn’t matter that Lunt (ranked 68) is fourth on the depth chart behind Clint Chelf (ranked 86), JW Walsh (ranked 74) and some other random quarterback EA just made up. Virtual Gundy showed confidence in his guy and it paid off in week one, with Lunt (378 yards, four touchdowns) leading OSU to an easy win over Savannah State or, as the game refers to them, the FCS Southeast Cobras.
Game 2: Arizona 20 – #22 Oklahoma State 3
Cowboys’s record: 1-1
Not exactly the kind of offensive output OSU has become known for the past two years. Lunt struggled to complete passes (15-37 for 108 yards) and the team struggled to move the ball. But at least Quinn Sharp thrust himself into the best punter discussion. Sharp boomed nine punts for an average of 49 yards.
Game 3: Louisiana-Lafayette 35 – Oklahoma State 16
Cowboys’ record: 1-2
That sound you hear? Oh, that’s just Virtual Todd Monken taking a bat to every non-living object inside the OSU locker room. The loss at Arizona is understandable. But Lafayette? At home? With your offense throwing for 98 total passing yards and going 2-14 on third downs? No, Virtual Monken not too pleased.
Game 4: #19 Texas 30 – Oklahoma State 24
Cowboys’ record: 1-3
Just three games into the season, as Big 12 play was about to start, Virtual Gundy pulled the plug on the Wes Lunt experiment. Going with JW Walsh against Texas, the Cowboy offense ran a little smoother. He only threw for 118 yards, but the rushing attack worked well, with Walsh scoring on a nine-yard run to put OSU up 24-20 in the fourth quarter. But Texas scored 10 unanswered and the Cowboys’ tough luck digital season continued.
Game 5: Oklahoma State 31 – Kansas 19
Cowboys’ record: 2-3
When everyone else is beating you up, it’s always nice to get a brief role reversal. For that, there’s no better victim than Virtual Charlie Weis and the Jayhawks. Justin Gilbert had two interceptions and the OSU running game got three touchdowns, two from Joseph Randle. But the passing attack remained terrible, with Walsh producing only 83 yards on six completions, one less than the number of times Virtual Monken bashed his head on the desk in the coaching box.
Game 6: Iowa State 28 – Oklahoma State 14
Cowboys’ record: 2-4
Leading 14-13 at halftime, the Cowboys looked poised to avenge last November’s unforgettable loss. But in the gamer world, redemption never came. Iowa State won the second half 15-0, shutting down the increasingly anemic OSU passing game (103 yards). After the game, Virtual Gundy yanked his second quarterback of the year, pulling the plug on the JW Walsh era and naming Clint Chelf his starter.
Game 7: #11 TCU 42 – Oklahoma State 37
Cowboys’ record: 2-5
Another disheartening home loss, making the Digital Pokes a brutal 1-4 at home. But at least in this one, the offense showed some spark, led by Clint Chelf (287 yards and two touchdowns). The defense, solid most of the season but missing Caleb Lavey to broken ribs, was torched by TCU.
Game 8: #5 Kansas State 42 – Oklahoma State 27
Cowboys’ record: 2-6
Facing an imploding team, Collin Klein dismantled the OSU defense for a second straight year. Klein, one of the leading candidates for Heisman, threw for 323 yards and four touchdowns, while running for 71 and another score. Virtual Bill Young contemplated retirement following the game.
Game 9: #12 West Virginia 34 – Oklahoma State 30
Cowboys’ record: 2-7
The disastrous year hit a new low point. Digital Dana returned to his old stomping grounds, broke OSU’s heart on a last second touchdown and eliminated the Cowboys from bowl eligibility three games before the season ended. I mean, not even the Pinstripe Bowl will take the 2012 Fiesta Bowl champs.
Game 10: Oklahoma State 48 – Texas Tech 13
Cowboys’ record: 3-7
The NCAA ’13 Cowboys claim to fame: They beat the team (Tech) that beat the team (OU) that went on to win the imaginary Fiesta Bowl. Not the proudest moment for Virtual Boone and crew, but in this forgettable season, they’ll take it. Joseph Randle and Jeremy Smith combined for 192 yards and three touchdowns.
Game 11: #5 Oklahoma 42 – Oklahoma State 7
Cowboys’ record: 3-8
Maybe this was the Sooners answer to 44-10. En route to an eventual 12-1 season and Fiesta Bowl title, Oklahoma routed its in-state rival in front of a rowdy home crowd, sending them on an embarrassing 90-minute ride home. Sound familiar? Landry Jones torched the Cowboys for four touchdowns and Clint Chelf continued the OSU theme of the year — awful quarterback play — throwing for 119 yards and committing three turnovers.
Game 12: Oklahoma State 34 – Baylor 7
Cowboys’ final record: 4-8 overall, 3-6 Big 12
OSU took out its year-long frustration on a terrible Baylor team, using a combined 247 yards and three touchdowns from Randle and Smith to blowout the Bears in Waco. Overall, not the greatest season for Virtual Gundy, starting out the first year of a lucrative eight-year contract in miserable fashion. Good thing in the gaming world, you can always click reset.

I love T BOONE PICKENS ENTHUSIASM..I HOPE HE PAYS PLAYERS AND THEY FIND OUT...HE WOULD IF HE COULD -100%
He PAID 165 Million in 2005 and his investment didnt pay off LOL!!!!! Back to the MIDDLE for you T Boone!!!!
-- T. Boone Pickens' monetary gifts helped Oklahoma State build facilities that put the Cowboys on a path toward a Big 12 championship.
What’s next? He might pay for an investigator, if necessary.
“If we don’t get in the BCS (championship game), I’m not kidding you, if I have the power to do it, I’m going to have an investigation,”

From the newspaper
Not only did Gundy say Monday that he wouldn't politick for his team, he seemed to endorse OSU's major foe in the battle of one-loss teams that are campaigning to play LSU for the BCS title.
Gundy doesn't vote this season in the USA Today coaches' poll, which is a major factor in the BCS standings. If he did, Gundy said he would place Alabama ahead of OSU on his ballot.
EPIC FAIL!!!!!

I don’t type good enough, (so) I’ll have somebody type and email them back, and then they can catch me up the next day.”
Backfired on him because someone did it!

Phil steele is LOONY
Phil Steele: Cotton Bowl vs. Arkansas
Analysis: Steele picks the Cowboys to finish third in the Big 12, with the Sooners in the national championship game and Texas in the Fiesta Bowl. Again, this would be a great offensive showdown, featuring veteran signal-caller Tyler Wilson (one of the top NFL prospects heading into 2012) and young gun Wes Lunt.
