If practical sensibilities did not matter, it would be difficult to find a more perfect intro than Pantera's 'Yesterday Don't Mean S***'

Aww, come on, there was a Save awarded in the game. Obviously rigged by Warner Brothers. Mr. Coyote kept receiving inferior stuff from Acme. Well, it was actually a meteor, but hey. To add injury to insult, the last play of the game was when Bo Jackson received the blow to the hip that would start the premature end of his career.

Come on Cerebus, just do the campfire scene. That's it. As for mine how about this from 'Up In Smoke'.... Police Officer: Sir, may I see your license ? Pedro (Cheech): Awww man, it's back there...on the bumper

Get paid to not play a bad game for visiting fans (2nd worst only to LSU) ? That would be great. One down, one to go. Mr. Villareal, please keep us the hell out of Baton Rouge. Surely there are other "Marquee Road Game" venues available.

What's long and hard on a Sooner ? The third grade.

OU's scout team is probably running the Mizzou offense to prepare for our game.

How do they separate the men from the boys in Oklahoma ? With a garden hose.

On a kickoff that goes out of bounds without being touched, the receving team has 3 (that's right, 3) choices: 1. Take the ball 30 yards from the spot of the kick (which will be at their own 40 if kicked from the other 30) 2. Take the ball at the spot it went out of bounds (useful if an onside kick goes out of bounds untouched) 3. Make 'em kick it again from 5 yards further back. You might see this happen if the kicker hasn't been kicking off very well. The biggest impact of this rule will probably be less trick-kicks. The only onside kicks will likely be obvious ones.

Or does he.....not always a given with OU.

Stoops isn't planning on more than 12-14 or so passes in this game.

Move over, Abercrombie Roll over, Fitch 2 years in a row is gonna be a Bitch !

"Pony Up"......isn't that how they originally got into trouble ? The arrow part is funny, too...especially when they try to refer to others as "directional" schools

4, if you count the New Orleans Bowl

I'm happy to see the SBC coaches are overlooking this team.

Great suspense....Quoner, do let us know if Schloppy takes it all the way or if someone manages to lick Bush in '07.

It looks like The Baja Men have finally been answered.

Awww...we've missed Ol' Blue Raider. I would say he's getting a bit long in the tooth, but that just doesn't seem right.

A 2-step process: 1 - Incentive for entry - All SCANNED student ID's will be entered into a drawing for something worth having. No scan, no win. Drawing at end of 1st quarter. This won't stop a student from comng in, getting scanned, and going right back out, but they count as a butt-in-seat, so the joke's on them. 2. - Disincentive for loitering - Police sobriety patrols through the tailgating area beginning about 15 minutes after kickoff. High visibility, someone getting jacked up for being too drunk will send a good message: Don't be in the tailgate area drinking during game time. Most will learn to come in, the leeches will leave.

So, the QB(s) will throw 24 TD's, but only 15 of them will be received ? Does Scrappy catch the other 9 ?

except the Pacman stuff, that was lame. He's a Tennessee embarrassment, nothing but.

1. They used to have UT/OSU/TT/aTm smack threads. Now they have UNT smack threads. 2. We've beaten Boise State. 3. Unlike IOU, more than 5 % of our fans actually went to school here. 4. Our season doesn't end after one loss. I do expect a lopsided loss, though, the combination of the first time out in the new offense plus IOU's desire to get the Bronco taste out of their mouth will be hard to overcome. The best thing is that the following week SMU will like they're running in slow motion in comparison.

I overheard a guy on a plane saying he was going to learn how to watch soccer because there are no fat slobs in soccer.

They have to go inside the nine-yard mark, which is usually where the yard-line numbers are, hence the nickname of "visiting the numbers". All offensive players must visit the numbers before the snap, the huddle satisfies this requirement for most players.
