    If you read IDE’s posts in the voice of Eeyore he is actually kind of amusing in that way.

    Feel the same way about you and Pee Wee Herman. Been to any good movie theaters lately?

    I realize it's easier that way, but for the most part, it would be more accurate to rank top-# wins by where the teams ended. Exhibit A: UCLA gets credit for beating a top-10 team when they played Texas in 1997.

    Damn, that coach everyone bad mouths may not be as bad as people ***** about him since Fred Akers was near 85& against Top 20 teams (nearly 30 games) outside of OU, and he was 5-4-1 against Barry

    Beating top 25 teams is not TH's problem. I'd be happy if he could just beat Maryland, Okie lite and the Hillbillies.

    If it included all the teams Texas "should" beat I would.

    I dont think anyone would be happy, including you, if we lose to ou every year + lose every single one of the next two decades worth of Tier 1 OOC opponents + lose every bowl? Maybe I'm wrong, but I just cant see '"well, at least we are beating Kansas again every year" carrying the day.

    Earlier today I happened upon this article: Coaching overachievers and underachievers which among other things says that Herman tends to end up with a better record than you would expect if you just looked at teams' total season statistics and used that to predict everyone's record.

    Anyway, in trying to explain this, he ends with the perfect quote to summarize it:

    Charlie ran him off. My memory is that it was for multiple failed drug tests. Suspended him first, then later dismissed him when he failed subsequent testing. That was a very tough period for the OL after both starting OTs were sent packing -- took a long time to fully recover. Basically all the way until now. Ugh. But I cant recall any assault type issues with Harrison.

    Brendan Frasier? That's giving them more credit than they deserve.

    Are delusionaries similar to visionaries in that they think delusional ways like no other can?

    Then NASA tried to upstage us with that whole "Moon Landing" thing the same year. Pansies.

    Yancy McKnight has his own system --

    According to his "explosive testing" -- the three most "explosive" freshmen are Tyler Owens, Jake Smith and Kenyatta Watson.

    His "700-pound squat club" consists of Marquez Bimage, Samuel Cosmi, Ta'Quon Graham and Gerald Wilbon.
