I CAN’T GET NO…………..SATIS-Faction
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on January 7th, 2010 under Football
It’s not the “MNC,” it’s the National Championship. The only National Championship. The conference’s signed up for it, so it is so.
That said,
• Of course I rooted for Alabama. Texas winning national titles is bad for Oklahoma. But, they way this went down was unsatisfying.
• No way am I going to say that if McCoy hadn’t gone down, Texas wins. You can’t say that. McCoy’s injury changed the whole complexion

Sun Bowl wrap and Season Post-Mort

Sun Bowl
I’ve been very critical of Landry Jones play and future prospects all year, but he was very good in this game.

Urban Meyer NOT really stepping down, sort of….
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on December 27th, 2009 under Football
Meyer has had a "change of heart." He will take a leave of absence for 2010 and Steve Adazzio (sp?), the offensive coordinator will coach the team next season.
It's hard to spin how this is good for their program. You can virtually write off the 2010 season this minute.
Are recruits going to buy this? You can bet they'll lose a couple. This is going to be a tough sell

How McCoy lost the Heisman (and not because of an interception)
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on December 14th, 2009 under Football
I’ve been debating myself on what to write about the Heisman outcome. I thought McCoy was going to win, but mostly as a “lifetime achievement award” type of thing.

BCS and Bowl Thoughts
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on December 7th, 2009 under Football
DAMN, did Alabama look good on Saturday. Nobody plays their “best” in every game. But if that’s Alabama’s best, and they can do it again, they’ll beat Texas, and handily.

The gods (point spread makers) Must be Crazy
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on November 27th, 2009 under Football
Everyone agrees that Zac Robinson will play and Oklahoma (not State) is a 10 point favorite? Huh?
Honest to God, I thought OSU would be a two touchdown favorite.
Why?

Does playing in a bowl game REALLY matter THIS year?
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on November 22nd, 2009 under Football
Of course you want to play in a bowl game. It’s important. It’s on national TV. It’s a chance to finish a season “the right way.”
Jesus, NDS, you are one rationalizing SOB!!!!
Lemme be completely f-ing transparent.

Pre Game Thoughts – A&M….What’s left in the tank?
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on November 14th, 2009 under Football
How is it possible that we’re a 20 point favorite? That’s crazy. Can we even score 20 with the number of starters we’re missing and rotating walk-ons on the offensive line?

‘Husker Hospitality
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on November 8th, 2009 under Football
I haven’t been everywhere, that’s for sure. I’ve been to Norman, Stillwater, Austin, College Station, the Hilltop, TCU, Boulder, Eugene, U-Dub, Lubbock, Blacksburg and four BCS title games.

Lost in Lincoln
Posted by NorthDallasSooner on November 8th, 2009 under Football
This is the lowest point in the Stoops era without question.
Landry Jones is not good enough to play quarterback at Oklahoma. You have to go back to days of Eric Moore and Kelly Phelps to see such horrible quarterback play at OU.
