So, lets make more excuses for OSU. According to your logic, Mike Gundy is 0-1 in big games this year. Since the ISU game against a 6-6 opponent kept OSU from playing for a National Championship.

I thought it actually was closer to being inside the uprights than dead even on top of them. I really never understood why they don't just extend the uprights higher.

Even worse, why isn't that play even reviewable? You have cameras catching the flight at different angles. It's a dead ball after the play one way or the other. It seems dumb to be able to review one form of scoring but not another.

With all that said, it is what it is. OSU lost but went on to win their first BCS bowl. I'd rather celebrate the positive than dwell on the negative.

See. The Pickers picks don't matter as long as his columns are always dead on.

It feels good to be the Champs. So proud of the Pokes.

The Pick has already written off the NBA season as boring & uneventful, Miami beats the Thunder in 6 is his astute determination & that no one needs to watch a game until the last few minutes....

I was informed that the Pick isn't a sole entity & that this column is a conglomeration of TW sportswriters & to me, that's so very sad that they view a PROFESSIONAL basketball league unworthy of TW print space.... But I'm not suprised as this column does it's best to trample on the WNBA team that Tulsa has....

This column loves to write about so-called amateur sports, Sooners, Pokes, TU & ORU & I guess going outside the boundries of amateur sports & into the world of professional athletics ais a frightening pilgrimage that would expose the TW writers as the local yahoos that they really are....

I find that sad because their lack of vision ensures that their readers are as uninformed as they are....
