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 ...
The "anything for money" angle just caught up with the Big 12.
The new game matching conference winners in the Big 12 and the SEC is not a game for conference winners. Can you imagine winning the SEC and not being in the final four? Same with the Big 12 -- the winner will be in the top 4 eight of ten times.
So the new game will usually match the SEC runnerup with the Big 12 runnerup.
That is if they can figure out who finishes second some years. If they can't easily determine who wins, imagine trying to sort out ties for second.
Getting back to the new game, how would you like to face the loser of the SEC title game?
This conference is so far superior at the top to the rest of the country, going up against the SEC runnerup will be pure torture.
The slogan should read: Anything but the SEC for money.
The Big 12 winner is apt to have it easier than the runnerup! Who wouldn't rather play a Big Ten or Pac Ten champ than the SEC second place team!
