Thankfully, Al Franken will have nothing to do with counting Heisman Trophy ballots. If, however, record-setting Oklahoma Sooners quarterback Sam Bradford isn’t named the winner of college football’s Heisman Trophy Dec. 13 in New York City, the joke is likely to be on voters. In Saturday night’s Big 12 Championship at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas [...]

Things worked out for the Oklahoma Sooners after all as they leapfrogged over the Texas Longhorns (now #3) and Florida Gators (now #4) into the #2 spot in college football’s BCS standings released this afternoon.

Oklahoma Sooners Deliver Message to the Nation
November 23rd, 2008 · No Comments
Bob Stoops’ fifth-ranked Oklahoma Sooners delivered the #2 Texas Tech Red Raiders football program its worst defeat ever — that’s right, EVER! — a 65-21 drubbing Saturday night at The Gaylord Family Memorial Stadium in Norman.* More importantly, however, the boys in Crimson ‘n’ Cream sent a strongly-worded message to the rest of the college [...]

Utah Ranked Above Oklahoma State in BCS?
November 2nd, 2008 · 14 Comments
I’ve been so busy writing about politics during the past few weeks that I haven’t had time to cover college football much. Tonight, however, I had to share my disgust with the latest BCS rankings. Somehow, those rankings place the Utah Utes above my Oklahoma State Cowboys. My question is, “How?” A comparison of the [...]

It’s Time for John McCain to Wage 4th-Quarter Rally
October 13th, 2008 · 3 Comments
As a college football fan and political junkie, I see similarities in the seemingly-disparate activities which lead me to believe John McCain can succeed by waging a fourth-quarter comeback over Barack Obama. Twice this year, college gridiron fans have seen three or more Top 10 teams fall during a single weekend to squads that were [...]

Stepping away from politics for a moment, I had to point out one of the best graphics I’ve seen online in quite a while — the teaser that appeared on the front page of ESPN’s college football section and points to the College GameDay Final report about the battles between four Big XII Conference “unbeatens” [...]
