Oklahoma State has now matched Oklahoma in at least one statistical category.
OSU now has the same number of losses in the Big 12 Championship Game as the Sooners.
Oklahoma State (0-1)
Oklahoma (11-1)
USC has played San Jose St, Nevada, and Stanford.
They are 126th in plays allowed over 20 yards.
They are all alone, dead last, 133rd in plays allowed over 50 yards.
OSU: "I can't believe you are leaving and killing the series"
OU: "Oh, we would love to keep playing!"
OSU: "All that history just gone"
OU: "But...we just said..."
*OSU slowly walking away*
OSU: "Just so sad. Can't believe it"
OU: "WE STILL WANT..."
OSU: "What a shame"
In Norman, no food, and my roommate and I had about $8
Dug around outside until I found a couple of worms
Went to a pond in a park there in town
Caught a perch with the worms
Cut up the perch for bait
Caught a few catfish, cleaned them and ate them
Spent the $8 on beer
Venables recruiting to OU:
"I have 3 titles and OU has 7. We will employ a fast, explosive and diverse offense, combined with a punishing, relentless, suffocating defense. I’m going to coach my players really hard. But I’m going to love them more"
Riley recruiting to USC:
In the ’99 Red River Showdown, OU offensive coordinator Mike Leach planted a decoy play script during pregame warmups. The Longhorns found it, used it and fell behind 17-0 before realizing they’d been duped. Inside how it all happened:
Sam Ehlinger has lost more games in his two years as UT's quarterback than any Oklahoma quarterback ever lost in any two-year stretch over the last 20 years.
*Oklahoma plays close game against 8-2 FBS Army*
"Oklahoma is just not very good"
*Alabama plays close game against 4-5 FCS Citidel*
"Schematically, the option is just so hard to prepare for and defend against."
For all y’all bringing up stats for
#KylerMurray
against
#TuaTagovailoa
keep in mind tua has only played 1 4th quarter. No game has been within reach at halftime. He’s faced better defenses all year than Murray has. Just stop it

@AlabamaFTBL
In 2018, OU gave to me:
12th B12 title
11th 1k-yard receiver
10 players w/ a sack
9 players w/ 20+ pts
8 players w/ 4+ TDs
7th Heisman Trophy
6th 4k-yard passer
5th straight 6k-yard season
4th No.1 draft pick
3rd CFP
2 1k-yard receivers
And the best offense in the country.
No team in CFB history has started a season ranked in the Top 15 and finished the season unranked more times than Texas.
No team in CFB history has started a season ranked in the Top 5 and finished the season unranked as many times as Texas.
Texas A&M was in the Big 12 from 1996 to 2011.
In those 16 seasons, there were four Big 12 teams that lost 4 or more games at least 15 times...
Kansas
Baylor
Iowa State
...and Texas A&M
In the 72 five-year spans going back to 1945, Riley's 5 at OU ranks...
T-28th most National Titles
T-61st most Top 3 Finishes
T-56th most Top 5 Finishes
22nd best winning percentage
T-18th most conference championships
T-50th most bowl wins
Don't tell us our history, donkey
Lincoln Riley tells Scott Van Pelt that he first spoke with USC "very early Sunday morning."
"Honestly, Scott, that's the first conversation at any point in my time at Oklahoma that I'd ever had with another football team."
The Oklahoma offense could go out and take a knee, losing 2 yards each time, for the next 75 plays in a row and they would still lead the nation in Yards per Play.
Wouldn't it be cool if we had a college football game today?
Like, something big...
Like a championship game or something...
Saturday...tailgating..."Super Bowl"-style parties...a big celebration that feels like the rest of the college football season...
That would be cool...
Joe C told the Big 12 to fix it.
Bowlsby told Joe C to get bent.
MONTHS LATER Joe C said we're out in 4 years.
Bowlsby stood slack-jawed.
Riley says he's happy then bails hours after coaching a rivalry game.
Miss me with this crap about these being the same.
Thank you
@BUFootball

That's exactly the number of times Oklahoma State fans have gotten to see a Bedlam win in Stillwater.
It's kind of poetic actually...
If it makes a ~100 yard round trip, then Lincoln Riley's offense has put about 19.7 miles on the schooner since arriving in Norman.
This is really his fault.
No FBS team has had more 1,000-yard rushers than Oklahoma since Lincoln Riley took over the offense in 2015.
OU has had 7...
2015 Perine
2016 Perine
2016 Mixon
2017 Anderson
2018 Murray
2018 Brooks
2019 Hurts
...and Brooks is 24 yards away from making it 8
If you only consider Oklahoma's winning percentage AFTER World War II...
...then Clemson could go 15-0 for, not just 30, but FIFTY straight years, and Oklahoma would still have a better winning percentage.
You didn't think this one through, Kenny.

In Baker Mayfield's career at Oklahoma, he leads Grier in...
Yds/Att
Adj Yds/Att
TD/INT
Cmp %
Att/TD
& Pass. Efficiency
If Grier throws 400 passes this season, he would have to be...
320 for 400 with 5,380 yards, 54 TDs and 0 INTs
...to pass Mayfield in those categories.
Alabama QB Bryce Young said he received his 1st scholarship offer on his last day of 8th grade from then Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury. "It was amazing,” he said
"The committee made a mistake by putting in a team that is going to get blown out by Alabama, and should have instead put in a team has already been blown out by Alabama" is one hell of a take...
Notre Dame and just like every other year ND is going to get blown out by whoever they play and the committee with realize they’re wrong. It’s a tradition like no other watching ND get blown out in big time games but it’s time for change.
After Jimbo Fisher was announced at A&M, he finished 9-4 with a Gator Bowl win.
Four years later, he is going into the Gator Bowl at 8-4.
He really turn that program around...
Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray together have more touchdown passes than every Texas player that has ever thrown an NFL pass over the last 60 years combined.
Eli Drinkwitz on the speculation that Texas and Oklahoma want to join the SEC:
“Like I tell recruits all the time, we are the best league in college football and everyone wants to play there… It’s an exclusive club and not everyone gets in, so good luck”
