Well, one thing for sure, if Texas is fortunate to win the thing, golf will be just another non-revenue sport nobody cares about.
Still a lot of stroke play to go, followed by match play I believe.


I call them "that's nice" championships.

But to me...golf is so weird because it is the only sport where the players are like regular frat bro looking dudes of normal size.
There are guys with fully punchable faces... Beck has punchable eyes.

On occasion you see dudes with eyes like his and they are usually pretty high on the jerk scale.

Softball should be the only women’s sport we discuss here. Everything else is a men’s sport that women suck at.

Softball is their own unique sport with a field built for girls. The games are quick and entertaining.


Totally agree with this. It would be like if they used a nine foot goal for women's basketball.

Softball moves way faster than baseball. Softball has more action in it than baseball due to the reduced field dimensions and the fact that the ball carries so much slower than a baseball.
Maybe Stein will get a cigarette lighter for his efforts.

It's not often you and I agree on anything, but I have said this for years. I don't understand why Missouri State doesn't get the recognition it deserves.



A lot of Missouri State's problem is that it was a directional school for so long and wasn't D1.
It seems like Willie Martinez worked a lot of places and everywhere he worked... the fans bitched about him.

I wonder if their is an archive on the rant where you could see what LSU fans were saying on here before there was any inkling he would move over to LSU.

It would be funny to read some of the posts from LSU fans then compared to now. :lol:

Both 10-8 in conf, 5 way tie for 4th


It is hard to believe... but depending on how the weekend goes. A team in that 10-8 log jam could end up tied for first in the conference... or end up in 13th place after next weekend.

QB and big players all have put on 20 lbs of steel and are much quicker.


That is one of the funniest things I hear during the spring...

All the podcasts say "so and so looks huge compared to last year"....

And then you look up their spring weight... and they might have gained two pounds since their pre season weight from last year.

And I think the fans of every P4 team thinks they has the best strength and conditioning program in the in the country every spring. Then in the fall... they complain about it if they start losing games or have guys get hurt.

Not reading all that.

LSU outplayed Oklahoma. Period.



OU must embezzle money from Catholic hospitals to pay off the judges...

I don't think there is any other explanation.

Notice Georgia's dominance before the full force of NIL went into effect and the major shift when it did. Even former bottom feeder Indiana rose to the top once everything became equal.


I love the inference that Ohio State and other Big 10 schools didn't have rogue boosters who paid players before NIL. Just the SEC.

You do realize that back then everybody cheated but Texas... :lol:

QB Baker Mayfield
RB Adrian Peterson
RB Billy Sims
TE Mark Andrew's
WR CeeDee Lamb
WR Hollywood Brown


I might take Keith Jackson over Mark Andrews at TE in terms of sheer ability.

Old school guys like Tinker Owens, Billy Brooks and Eddie Hinton probably could have competed for top receiver honors in a modern offense. Probably not Cee Dee or Hollywood level...but they deserve a mention here as does Tommy McDonald and maybe Lance Rentzel based on their pro careers as receivers.

Bud Wilkinson has GOT to be on any OU list...if not at the top.

And Billy Tubbs has got to be in over Kelvin Sampson. He was way more popular with the fan base than Kelvin.

Gym?... as big a deal as it is for OU and as good as they are... your average T-shirt OU fan probably doesn't even know who the women's gym coach is...

No one cares about the red river shootout, those fanbases root for each other when they aren’t having a circle jerk at the state fair


You guys had something slightly similar when you played at Legion field.

And you traded it in for a typical home and home.

And the ONLY reason that OU and Texas are friendly at all is because we joined the SEC together. We are like two kids from the same neighborhood who hated each other who ended up both moving to a different neighborhood across town and are taking crap from the kids in the neighborhood.

It will take a few more years for that to wear off...
quote:

This is how Texas fans see OU fans, and Texas a&M is the Auburn in the equation. I never knew this, pretty interesting.


Not going to argue the "equation"... but the reason for it being the way it is is because of the fact that there are more Aggies(or Auburn fans) around to rub it in if they beat you than OU (or Tennessee fans).

I'm a little different on it simply because OU plays Texas IN Texas every year.

The experience in Dallas is different for OU fans than it is for Texas fans. If Texas loses... their fans just blend into Dallas or head back to Austin.

When OU loses... you catch a ton of grief in Dallas after the game because your Oklahoma plates make you a target. And Texas fans harass OU fans with signs on overpasses or sit by the road and flash you the Hook 'em as you drive back to Oklahoma.

I'd rather catch grief at the office from OSU fans or OSU family members than go through that. Although I have many times.

The harassment and the pro Texas bias in DFW in the media and around town are the two things that kind of suck for OU fans playing down there... but it is to be expected.

I've known Thad Balkman since he was on the city council thirty years ago.

The NCAA never had a chance. Guy is a hard core OU fan.

Interestingly, he is also LDS and he has helped OU get a few LDS athletes to come to Norman. He is like a big shot in the stake or ward or whatever the call it and he is one of the guys they meet when they take the recruits over to the LDS place of worship or LDS student center on campus.

OSU threw their ace at OU... OU threw their #2 and never did relieve her with their ace.

OSU hit OU's second level pitching better than OU hit OSU's ace pitcher.

Simple as that.
