Same. Try living in Oklahoma where you see OU crap at Dollar General and hear "Boomer Sooner" on the radio. I just want to let them know.... Oklahoma State #9 Oklahoma #18

No, really?

They tried to get George Michael

Fins fans... lol

Not going with my formula this week, just making picks. Oklahoma -12.5 USC -6 Wyoming +21.5

I don't like it. Stand when it's a big play, seems to make the play that's happening "bigger" for the guys on the field. I go to mostly college games, because I'm in Oklahoma and only students stand the whole game. You're 18-21 years old, go for it. When you're 45 years old, it not as much fun to stand for 3 hours. Nothing annoys me more than my entire section sitting and two or three jerks standing causing everything behind them to have to stand.

Okay Francis

You'll never get a straight answer... and later, he will make up what you've said to him. Good luck!

Would Alabama play Oklahoma State and USC the same season non-conference? How about Michigan and then play Oregon? Same year. OU left for the SEC, I don't blame them AT ALL. If Oklahoma State had that chance (which they probably eventually will when we go to like 4 super conferences), I'd bolt in a heartbeat. Why should OSU bend over backwards to schedule OU along with our future games? We have 4 of the next 5 seasons set with non conference. So lets pretend we do add OU every year when our schedule isn't full... here's the non-conference foes: 2025 Oklahoma Oregon Tulsa 2029 Alabama Oklahoma Tulsa 2032 & 33 Arkansas Oklahoma 2034 @ 35 Nebraska Oklahoma 2036 & 37 Oklahoma Colorado No thanks. Does NOTHING for Oklahoma State to schedule Alabama and OU the same year, or Arkansas and OU. Gundy said he could see it happening in 2030, when we only have Tulsa right now. This was a great analogy for this whole thing (and don't get me wrong, I don't want Bedlam to end, but I get why OSU isn't going out of their way to please OU. How it's on the OSU program, it's comical): OU: I'm leaving you for someone else OSU: Fine, bye. OU: Maybe sometimes we can hookup.. like on weekends? OSU: No, bye. OU: I can't believe you're ending this relationship.

Saw the first 3 episodes.... might be the best live action Star Wars show thus far. Pacing isn't very fast but they are developing a story line that seem to be amazing. Can't wait to see more!

I didn't have any issues the past couple of weeks other than every so often, it would give me some weird error. Just had to close and open the app again. BTW: I have the Sunday Ticket via my oldest daughter's college account for $40 a year

Growing up in the late 70's/early 80's... I'm a massive Star Wars nerd. In fact, I still collect the vintage toys (mostly MOC's). Being a HUGE fan of Rogue One, I can't wait until Wednesday when Disney releases Andor. LucasFilm/Disney has soooo many talented writers/directors (Dave Filoni, Jon Favreau, Tony Gilroy)... makes no sense to me why they put out junk like Obi-Wan and the sequels. Yes, there were parts of Obi-Wan I really loved, but for the most part it was boring.

I love a nice cold running brook. Geez dude, not for that. BTW: No gun type is mentioned in the 2A... "Arms". You're just playing dumb right now.

He's for abolishing the Bill of Rights.

The picks that stood out to me didn't do great this week, 2-5. The one I bet on that really stood out was Texas -11, so I managed to win money. Game looked so easy before it started, not so much after! Should have put money on OU and USC as well.

That's too bad. I really like the guy, thought he'd do great at Arizona State. He's had a winning record every year (minus the short covid season where he went like 2-2) but this season. Not sure if ASU would ever be a powerhouse program. Only 5 seasons of 10 or more wins the past 40+ years. Watched the ASU v OSU game in Stillwater a week ago and they looked decent in the first half.

Not a good week for my formula system... my favorite game that I bet on did cover, somehow (Texas). Didn't look that way for a loooong time. Week 4 will be posted soon. WEEK: 9-10 FEATURED WEEK: 2-5 SEASON: 18-17-1 ATS FEATURED SELECTIONS: 6-7 ATS

If Oklahoma State can build a program that went 0-10-1 (1991, I was there every home game) to a team on the cusp of the CFP (10th most wins in college football since like 2007)... Nebraska can come back to be a dangerous team. Just takes the right coach with the right mindset for the program (Saban, Gundy, Dabo, Fitzgerald, etc.)

Maybe... if our team had another tragedy take place the same day of the game like we did before the Iowa State game. OSU lost 2 coaches (head coach and assistant basketball coach) in a plane crash the DAY OF THE FOOTBALL GAME. I know Justin Blackman's family pretty well. His sister graduated with my oldest daughter at Plainview (OK). I know Warren (his dad) and mother, who teaches at Ardmore public schools (I'm a school counselor at the HS). That seriously hit the team, hard. They were VERY close to the basketball team and the coaches. So sure, it's possible. But that year, the OSU snub, was a main reason we have the 4 team playoff today... and it's why I'm 100% fore an even more expanded playoff system. LSU averaged 37 ppg that year, had a sub-20 points against Miss State as well... but they were two TOTALLY different offenses. OSU wasn't a run first offense like LSU. We threw it. A lot. We had the two time Biletnikoff Award winner (IMO, the best WR to play in 25 years in college) and our offenses put up scores of 70, 66, 61, 59 and 52 that year. The biggest issue (besides we will never know) is there was a chance to see a team who was a "in the trench" team (LSU) vs the Big XII "Air raid" team and they put another boring game... a rematch... in the final. No, OSU would have played Alabama in the semi-finals. We were barely 3rd place... 0.086 behind Alabama.

Yes, ND scored 28 points in the first half. They were practically shut down in the 2nd. And they wouldn't have beat UGA last year. I'm not saying that, but they would have been able to hang with them. Both teams would have put on a defensive show.

OSU and UGA having the top 2 defenses last season... that's not an opinion. That's a fact. In many of those "2nd half shutouts", teams struggled to score anything in the 1st half. In fact, OSU didn't allow a TD in 3 of the final 6 games of the year. At all.

Since there is no NCAA trophy awarded, no real playoff... it's been called "Mythical" for decades. You new to college football? As for the 2011 team, we will never know. That's why we needed an expansion of the BCS or a Playoff. That's one of the MAIN reasons why we have it now... the 2011 season and OSU getting screwed over. You clearly didn't watch much of the 2011 OSU season if you think we wouldn't be able to move the ball. Near 50 points per game and the last half of the season, was closer to 60 ppg. Alabama didn't win their conference, Alabama didn't even win their own division. Alabama had a crap resume compared to Oklahoma State that year. We've talked about this before. TEAM A Beat #10, #11, #17, #22 and #25 during the regular season Beat 7 total bowl bound teams with winning records Jeff Sagarin's Conference Power Rank: #1 SOS: 6th Won Conference Championship LONE LOSS: On the road in doubt OT TEAM B Beat #8 and #21 teams during the regular season Beat 3 total bowl bound teams with winning records Sagarin's Conference Power Rank: #2 SOS: 29th Did not play in conference championship LONE LOSS: At home in OT Take team names out... only a Alabama homer would say "TEAM B! TEAM B!"

My team... the Golden Taints. I'm fairly weak at RB and Mike Williams has me so confused and scared to start him again. QB: Josh Allen RB: Antonio Gibson RB: Cordarrelle Patterson WR: Tyreek Hill WR: Gabe Davis TE: Dawson Knox FLEX: Ezekiel Elliott D/ST: Tampa Bay K: Tyler Bass BE QB: Daniel Jones RB: Rachaad White WR: Julio Jones WR: Mile Williams WR: Russell Gage WR: George Pickens WR: Marquez Valdes-Scanting Looks a lot like my team (just posted it)

But it's not just about last year. Look at the Final AP top 25 going back years. We usually have the same 3-4 teams in the top 4, but there are times (more often than not) a team was a "almost in" or "we will never know" outside looking in. 2018 Ohio State 2017 UCF 2017 Wisconsin 2015 Ohio State 2015 Houston 2014 TCU 2013 Michigan State 2012 Oregon 2011 Oklahoma State I just don't see how more football is in issue. We can reduce meaningless non-conference games for power 5 programs v FBS teams all together. Reduce it to 2 non-conference games for each program. Max. You're only then adding another game to a team who wins the NCAA Championship... and again, we can crown a TRUE NCAA championship, not just a mythical one. I agree completely about schedule and conference reform. We can do all three.
