1) I think I'd rather play Arizona State than Grand Canyon in this event. Say what you want about their weak conference, but they're dangerous. 2) With both us and OSU going out there this year, I wonder if there's a return event the following year with ASU/GCU playing OU/OSU in either OKC or...

I hope so. Surely they're not going to Spokane for a one and done. Perhaps we'll play OSU in Tulsa and Gonzaga in OKC the next year, or vice versa. And I guess this game counts as a neutral site game for NET purposes.

I don't know if the Sioux Falls people are paying us to go there. They like to bring in big name teams to play in that building. It's small, but they're proud of it. Lots of credit card and hospital money in Sioux Falls. I agree, though: if we're going to play Nebraska in front of a hostile...

Yep. You're buying games in the top half of low-major conferences instead of the bottom. Or, you're buying a game from a basement team in a better conference like the Missouri Valley.

This. If you're going to buy wins, buy them from the 150-250 range instead of the 250+ range. They'll help your NET rankings when the time comes. I know we've lost to teams like Sam Houston in the Porter era...there's no excuse for that. But we should be able to win these games without much...

It's probably not feasible to play them home and home, though a road game against a power conference team would help both of our NET ratings. I'm glad we still play them. It's even better when we whip them. I guess this is technically OSU's home game. Last season, we were the "home" team, wore...

I wonder how much $ Trae is putting in? Whatever it is, it is much appreciated.

Thank you to our anonymous(?) donors who are putting together the big NIL bags.

He already is. I'm excited about the QB and RB we have coming in. Ott, the RB from Cal, is a Nagy find. The guy is a scouting freak. He scouts players, negotiates contracts, deals with families, and frees up the coaches to coach. Great hire by OU.

He is risen, indeed.

I don't know who wrote or created this, but this is awesome.

I loved watching David Johnson play. And Andre Turner indeed palmed the ball at the end of the Memphis State game. The 85 Final Four should have been ours. That would have been fun, especially because Billy loved to rag on the Big East and the other three teams in that Final Four were from the...

Tilman Fertitta has been wise. Sure, they've put money into football, especially moving into the Big 12. But they've invested very well into basketball, with a rebuilt arena/facilities, top staff, and paying top dollar for players. A lot of this money has come from Fertitta himself. He wants a...

We're in the SEC, and Florida's in the SEC. Do we get to claim a piece of this championship? /jk /sarc

It's a different era. You have to do the one and done thing and get into the league as soon as possible. The money has always been good, but it's even bigger now. In my era, guys would stay two or three years just to get the college experience and have fun playing with their friends. Also, the...
