Excuse Me But: WHAT ABOUT THE OU GAME NOW?!!!!!

Good enough for the bowl game, but not for Bedlam.

Granted, Alabama has no quarterback, no offense, no coach, no enthusiasm, no receivers, no prospect for the future: BUT IT DOES HAVE A DEFENSE!

And Oklahoma State ravaged it, savaged it, threw on it, ran on it, pounded it -- basically stomped it into the Louisiana sod.

Granted, the Big 12 is lame. If Texas A & M played anywhere else, coach Frannie would have been fired by now. The Aggies actually run a rinky-dink, pitiful, embarrassing, option game. Texas A & M's offense should be under Friday night lights, not Saturday sun. Given the military nature of the Aggie nation, it has started running an offense like Army's or the Coast Guard's.

Getting back to Oklahoma State: It scored more points and covered more yards against Alabama than did anybody in the revered SEC!

OSU quarterback Reid played every down.

SO WHY IN THE NAME OF COWBOY FANS EVERYWHERE DIDN'T HE PLAY THE WHOLE GAME AGAINST OU?

Talk about a lapse in coaching concentration.

Our bowl record against the pointspread going into the weekend is 9-3.

OU minus 7 is no cinch.

Somebody made the good point that after layoffs and at the beginning of seasons, Stoops' offenses appear routine.
