Think its just a coincidence that we have not had one Sooner win any sort of award for their defense for nearly seven years?? No Nagurskis, or Thorpes, not even a Butkus!!

Things that make you go hmmm....

Also just heard that the NCAA has contacted OU about exceeding OUr quota of screen passes, and its only November. After hearing this, Kevin Wilson looked at his calculations in his Ed Hardy trapper keeper and was reportedly seen slapping his forehead repeatedly. When Bob Stoops was questioned about exceeding the limit for number of screen passes thrown in a season, he flatly denied that there was any such rule as throwing too many screen passes and things were all good. Brent Venables was nowhere to be found for comment. Rumors were that he was still lost in College Station.

There isn't any. We haven't won any since 2003. Teddy won the Butkus, Tommie won the Lombardi, and Strait won the Thorpe. No defensive awards since then.

doesn't this speak more to individual talent/timing than defensive philosophy?

GK would have won every award there was if not for suh

I wish we had Curtis Lofton on this years team. That guy was awesome.

The whole team got up at 5 and ran this morning. Stoops not happy.

i've got it all figured out:

our defense hasn't huddled all year (much like our offense). if we can convince them to huddle prior to every snap, we win.

YWIA, BV.

reminds me of the worst phrase i ever heard in the navy:

"Ya'll f-ed up, and now you're gonna pay."

too bad stoops can "work 'em" for 12 hours.

KW exceeds the limit on screen passes every season 'cause he's the 'genious' of east-west football on a north-south field. ;)

Mr. 38 Posts is coming in here and evaluating our questions. Thanks Mr. 38 Posts!

For the record, I highly doubt Stoops had players getting up at 5 am, which would be irresponsible. But this is a message board, and wild rumors fly.

But he knows somebody, who knows somebody on the team...

Exactly. It's not doing our defense any favors and it's not doing our o-line any favors.

Leroy - I am very certain they got up at five. As wonky/trite/incredulous/dooche as this sounds, I work with an accurate source of information, one that went through two-a days this year.
