Football Forget conference pride, I will never cheer for Oklahoma

1. Tebow gets tons of attention, but he's a gamer.

2. An Oklahoma win does nothing to help the other Big 12 teams, for which I cheer for one of them.

Totally agree that rooting for Oklahoma is out of the question. My niece goes there, and I told her that even that wouldn't bring me to support those bastards. Every time I see the football team, all I can think of is Barry F'in Switzer.

Same goes for Kansas, but then I'm a Mizzou grad.

Go Gators!

There's the Switzer stuff, and Stoops said he didn't know about Rhett Bomar's job at the car dealership. Oklahoma has a bad reputation.

I also find it interesting that you dog Stoops for Bomar but Osbourne definately knew Lawrence Phillips threw his bitch down a flight of stairs and let him play in the National Championship game. In fact, Osbourne was ALWAYS under fire for not suspending troubled players. Plus, Osborne was considered the coach who couldn't win the big game in the 80"s. I find your view a bit hypocritical.

You can look at any major program and they have shit like this going on sooner(no pun intended) or later.

Nebraska has no in state talent and hasn't been able to recruit nationally since Osbourne. They may never be at the level they once were. I like Nebraska as much as Oklahoma to be honest. I just find it a joke that people are considering Oklahoma a failure. The tide will most likely turn for them if they keep getting in those games.

As a KU fan I'll take 4 title games and 1 BCS title every ten years all day long.

You are entitled to your opinion though. Enjoy your 6-6 to 8-3 seasons while Stoops continues to fail with Big 12 titles and BCS championship appearances.

Nebraska has never been on probation for violating NCAA rules. Go ahead and point to Lawrence Phillips like everyone else. He was suspended for the first half of that game, which was costly in a close game. OU has almost as many probations as national titles.

And welcome to Chiefs Planet, a place where you get ripped when your team loses. I suggest you get some thick skin or leave.

If I don't root for OU, who am I gonna root for? An SEC team?

If OU wins, Bradford declares which is, a) good for the Chiefs and, b) good for the big12 north since OU will have to break in another QB next year.

I think Bradford and the rest will declare if they want too, regardless of tonight's results. They may have already decided but haven't gone public.

I'm not rooting for Oklahoma for the simple fact that they shouldn't even be in the ****ing game to begin with. You lose to Texas you shouldn't move ahead of them it's that ****ing simple.

How is this OUs fault? The Big 12's rules are obviously reeruned.

So according to your philosophy who should be there? Texas Tech? They beat Texas, right? But wait. Oklahoma absolutely pounded Texas Tech. So they all had a claim to it, right? So then who gets to go to the show? What is the solution? Thats why there is a tie breaker a la the BCS ranking. It could have gone either way, but that is how the VOTES fell.

I agree the results of this game don't dictate go or stay but they may have an influence on the lions.
For that reason I would like to see bradford light it up so detroit takes him which I think is best for the chiefs.

The only downside to Florida winning is that DAKC's head will swell even bigger than it already is, and it's already so big that Phobia's head looks small by comparison, but I assume that at this point he couldn't really get much more annoying that he already is, so it probably wouldn't make that much difference anyway.

**** Oklahoma. I hope they get slaughtered.
