It is kinda hard for me to find the point of this LA Times article. Anyone? http://www.latimes.com/sports/printedition/la-sp-dufresne7-2009jan07,0,111714.column

I am looking forward to the performance of Nic Harris.

it sounds like he wants to slam OU, but then did (a little) research to find something out. i think the last 2 pages were fairly positive, but the first page made him sound like a southern cal loving dooshbag.

I think it is a positive article overall. The first page is just a setup to hook the reader with exaggeration of what they have already heard and read. The meat of the article is that maybe numbers don't tell the tale. Remember, this is a SoCal paper for readers who think the USC defense should have gotten their team into the title game.

This was obviously written by someone who does not have children....


and the editor that allowed this to be written should be fired! [hairGel]

Dufresne usually likes OU. I think it was a decent article, but it started out very strange.

I think there have been around 11 phloridian traffic cones on this board lately.

They have tried to slow stuff down around here.

Thing is...your gonna need more than a cone on your head to stop a Sooner.

Nice look fellas. Probably time to feed the cat to your reptiles.

I thought it was a good article. Am I missing something or did some of you guys not read the whole story?

I bet some people didn't see it goes to page 2 and three. He gets more fair later...
