The BCS gifted Stoops his NC in 2000 by putting Florida State ahead of a more deserving Miami team in the final rankings.

The 2000 Miami team (basically the same roster as the 2001 team that won the NC) would have destroyed Oklahoma.

holy shit.
LMAO

Tough break for all the women-beaters out there who wanted to play for a top program.

Their NFL dreams are certainly still alive though.

Top fight songs:

1 - USC
2 - Ohio State
3 - Texas
4 - Oklahoma
5 - Florida

I know I'm supposed to hold Notre Dame and Michigan in high repute, I've just always found theirs a bit stuffy. Not quite bold and brassy enough. If a damn fight song can be full of itself, ND and Michigan have managed it.

Bittersweet day for my Alma. The 2000 championship run was my first true taste of college football as a student (after two years at Missouri-Rolla before transferring).

Heck of a coach for these last 18 years. Glad he's not stepping away to move on to another team.

Let the Lincoln Riley era begin... Boomer!

My suspicion would be either an affair or some type of Health issue.

Or the Chip jelly to your throat rumors begin.

According to official announcements he's planning on "staying on at the university in some capacity", so it seems unlikely anything that would bring shame upon the OU brand.

The more local rumors are two fold: 1) His health, though he denied this--his father had a heart attack while coaching, and Stoops is known for his blood pressure going up during the games. 2) Family. His wife retired a couple of years back and his sons are seniors in high school with plans on pursuing college football careers. Thought is that he wants to spend more time with family and watch his boys play. Which makes sense, it's not like he's hurting financially or having to work. Other than winning another NC, he's proven just about everything there is to prove in college football head coaching.

*KSU punched Stoops' mouth 21% of the time.
*SEC punched Stoops' mouth the identical 21% of the time (7-26)


Of course that number includes perennial doormats Mizzouche and ATM. Without them, Stoops is still 7-4 vs the legacy SEC teams.

Our beer laws change in late 2018. Finally get cold beer in liquor stores.

People are even fighting to repeal that new law.

Don't worry. We have made possession of all hard drugs misdemeanors as well.

True. Health or scandal coming.

Minnesota finally gets liquor sales on Sunday. Starting July 1

So long Douche Stoops; may the heavens piss on your head daily.

You know you like to come see me!
