Here's what all the experts are saying about the Thunder, past and future:
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Blah, blah.
Blah.
Blah, ...
Who gave Perkins all that money and said he was the real deal?
Who drafted the KU center who couldn't play?
Who ...
OU football coach Bob Stoops had this scoop during his Tulsa campaign stop: The bottom of the SEC stinks.
What campaign ...
Regarding the controversy that kept OSU out of the national championship game: the field goal that could have been good but was ruled bad.
The rule is supposed to be: If it goes over the post, it's no good.
That makes no sense.
If you extended the goal posts up to infinity, a ball hitting a poll dead center could bounce out. Or in. There are laces on the football. Laces hitting posts cause funny bounces. Spin on a ball causes funny bounces. So there's no certainty a ball going over the posts would have bounced out.
Put some lasers on the posts, the kick is good or bad, period. Lasers can tell if tennis serves hit 130 miles per hour are good or bad in a second. Also, put a laser on the goal line. Just like the finish line at a horse race. It's a touchdown or not, find out in five seconds.
The field goal rule is old and dumb.
OSU probably got robbed.
