Bomar is going to get his butt chewed in a big way before he gets to go to the party.

Who said that good defense trumps good offense? I don't know why people think the "basketball on grass" type of football is better then a good defensive struggle. I would much rather watch two good defenses knock each other in the mouth.

Boomer would be proud. Wonder how the 'Ol Boy' is doing over there across the 'pond'. Hope the Bobbies don't arrest him for disturbing the peace. Chuckle.

Oklahoma's defensive front dominated the Oregon offensive front .... that's exactly what concerns me about the Georgia defense. If the Mountaineers cannot get those guys blocked it's going to be a long day.

You have to respect Coach Stoops and his staff .... they brought that team a long way since the beginning of the season.

That is the unknown factor - speed. It is hard to really know how you will compare until they get lined up across from each other.

If I know Boomer there are alot of people staring at his drunk *** right now wondering what the hell a sooner is.

I believe it's one of those big covered wagons the settlers used to haul their stuff when they began settling the Oklahoma Territory. :?:

Boomer told us the story one time, but I don't remember the whole thing. It had to do with the homesteaders. I will try to see if I can find his old post.

So much for the PAC-10 being a powerhouse. :lol:

So much for the human opinion polls... :lol:

They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

I'm sure all of you saw how Texas Tech beat Oklahoma on the last play. AP really thought that stretching the ball out would help him, wow was he wrong. That a great game. It's a shame that there has been so much of an importance in how your conference does in bowl games, it made me sick rooting for OU last night.

Why do so many games come down to the wire where the losing team drives down the field to about the thirty, and then throws a pick or fumbles the ball?

Often times it's because the field in front of the offense is shorter.

Picture this in your mind, the closer an offensive team gets to the defense's goal line the less field the defense has to defend and the less field the offense has to work with.

We don't get out much back here in the hills and hollers. :roll:


Oh, bury me not
On the lone prairie
Where the coyotes howl
And the wind blows free ....


We cheat and use the internet ........ :wink:
