Should a heck of a game. I am lifetime Gator fan (and grad) and I fired up to play Stoops. He is great coach and a talented team, should be a great game. Seems lots of people think OU is gonna roll in their and score 60+ on thier way to easy victory. That is fine, everyone told me that in AZ in 06 too. You keep thinking Tebow and Harvin is all we got and your gonna blow Florida out. Now anyone have any ticket connections? Geez I am dieing down here trying to find two for reasonable $$.

Not sure that everyone here is thinking easy OU win. In fact I can guarantee ya that. We have been here enough to know better. Gators have the line by 3. Believe me, everyone here, including stoops and the entire team is well aware of what happened in the USC game.
There is one HUGE difference this time, however-- we lost the horrific CHUCK LONG. That guy single-handedly lost one, and MAYBE two national championships games. Much of Stoops' failures in the last 7 years can be attributed to keeping that guy around TOO LONG. That guy couldn't call a play to save a life! To prove it, look what Big-boy Mangino has done at Kansas since winning the national Champ with OU!! And Long's record out in California as a head coach was horrible...he just got fired. So, yes, OU has a great chance!!! Stoops, if you are listening, PLEASE don't make any of your now signature, but rare stupid calls. Like going for it on 4th and 3 on your own 40, etc... PLEASE!!

Sooner schmooner. Check out MY alma mater...UNDEFEATED. Ok...so it's a once-in-a-lifetime deal, but MAD MAD props to the mighty Cardinals of BALL STATE UNIVERSITY! Unofficial motto....we'd rather Ball U than IU....or OU as it were.
I'm bustin' out my letter jacket.

Geez that's hideous.
Do you actually wear that in public? And NOT get laughed at?
Of course, I guess if it's on your middle finger it's okay.
