Those unis were one-off for the 2008 season. We wore the same threads from 2003-2007 (designed by Kelvin) and then Nike worked with us to come up with a bespoke set for 2008 that we kept all the way to 2014 (I think). If you think the pic above is bad, we actually wore a gray set against...
I'm going off memory here (not going to cheat and verify with SoonerStats) but I believe the contest in question was played at the Georgia Dome against Stephon Marbury's Yellow Jackets. The '95-96 team also had a tough road contest against a really good Purdue team in West Lafayette. OUr squad...
I think a lot of that has to do with the type of sports fan one is or isn't. For me, looking at our schedule, I was expecting 8-4 and hoping for 9-3. To go 10-2 has me more or less frolicking in daisies so I'm willing to let most anything go. I don't think Mateer's been very good, I remember...

I must've been asleep. Did the criteria change recently? When we played up there on NYE 2009 it was considered neutral because it wasn't inside "The Kennel". That was the night Tiny Gallon busted the backboard. Same thing a few years earlier when we played WVU in Charleston.
I'll be very surprised if we don't drop. I've been watching CFB long enough to know that either ND or Texas will always be the highest ranked 1-loss or 2-loss team.
This is such a big game. All of our goals are right there for the taking with a win today. So many foundational boxes are checked for us if we handle our business this afternoon. I've got the butterflies......what a wonderful feeling!

Bud's first great team beat the brakes off the Bayou Bengals in the Sugar Bowl following the 1949 season, 35-0. Leon "Mule Train" Heath ran all over LSU and Darrell Royal also found paydirt for the Sooners. Both of those dudes were from Hollis, OK!
