I think we have 97 or 98 weeks at #1 in the AP poll, passing the Domers for the alltime record a year or three back.

The AP comes out on Saturday, we only have the coaches poll so far.

Now, if we beat Tulsa, and assuming we can handle the always-tricky Bye, that will put us heading into Tallahassee with 100 weeks at #1, quite a milestone, IMHO.

That's right, isn't it?

We've had key injuries lately. No telling if they'll leave us up there, even after a W.

True, I guess it will depend on a lot of things, even if we win, but you'd like to think if we can win a few in a row, we'll hit it sometime this year.
Just a cool stat, another "100" for OU.

Tshirt worthy, no doubt!!!

www.soonerstats.com has the following:

Oklahoma 97
Notre Dame 95
Ohio State 94
USC 90
Nebraska 70
Miami (FL) 68
Florida State 60
Alabama 45
Texas 45
Florida 41

kinda surprising the lead we have on teams like bammer. How exactly do you claim 67 national championships if you've only been AP#1 for 45 weeks?

Interestingly, OU has played 79 games as the AP#1. Our record in those games is 71-8.

You only need to be number 1 at the end of the year to be NC :)

Alabama doesn't have 64 national championships, they have 74.

I'm kinda surprised it took us that long to pass Notre Dame. When was the last time ND was ranked #1 anyway???

I though Bama had between 5 and 7 NC's or was it 57?

45 weeks at #1 for Bama, one Heisman Trophy winner, and 79 National Championships... WTF? How does that add up?!?
