is better than not winning it, I guess. But it's getting to be a pretty lame consolation for otherwise disappointing seasons, especially when the conference can't even field enough teams to live up to its name. Say what you want about injuries and overrated talent; there is no excuse for our 2 losses or for a defense that gets screwed doggy-style more often than a wild b*tch in heat.
The team I hate, LSU, doesn't even have a real QB, but they show up to play every game and every play. They had many chances to let down but never have. The team I love is another story: It's even odds every week as to whether they will show up to play or just show up. Fire or character or focus or "want-to" or whatever is the responsibility of the top guy, and he's just plain failing at it. Face it, sunshine pumpers, Les Miles IS a better football coach than Bob Stoops.
Fortunately, I have learned to lower my expectations, so I am not crushed by inexcusable losses like I might have been when I was young.
So, win the Big nearly-XII if you can, but pardon me for not being impressed.
