Still think we can't get into the playoffs if we win out?

What sorcery is this that keeps changing B---E---D---L---A---M to "OU-OSU?"

Personally, I also find B-E-D-L-A-M-B to be acceptable.

Several years back one of the Admins that no longer post here, went into the Boards settings and changed it where it automaticly changes it to OU-OSU from B.dlam

Starting this season, no more split Championships in the Big XII. This was a direct result of the fiasco from how last season ended. Only 1 of 3 teams can now be declared Big XII Champion, but we are the only one that doesn't need help.

If Conference Championships are so important to the committee, why don't they just skip ND over and force them to join a Conference? If the B12 got jobbed last year because there was no single Champion recognized, ND needs to be judged similarly. Better yet, they're part of the ACC in all sports but football. For playoff rankings, treat the football team like they were in the ACC since I think they have to play 4 ACC schools each year. They lost to Clemson, so they wouldn't even be in the ACC Championship game. Hell, why do they deserve another shot at Clemson over other 1 loss teams that haven't been able to play them? As Bob said many many years ago about Missouri. This ain't golf. You don't get to take a mulligan and try again.

It's like 6 games, and they have some sort of deal where it's ACC team or Notre Dame when it comes to the bowl iirc.

But yeah, they should be treated as an ACC team.

Yup, figured that. But why? Did he think it was such a cliche term he was tired of seeing it?

[TAFBSooner]

The justification is that the term originally applied only to OU-OSU wrestling matches.

The reason is that giving the football series a name be-upgrades the series and through it the opponent, beyond how important said opponent is to us on their own.

The importance of the game to each team is inversely proportional to the number of wins that team has had in the series. When we win, it's one out of 80-something. If they were to pull it off, it would be one out of 19 times in all of history.

Ha! Now that I think of it I remember when it referred to only wrestling.

Thanks for the explanation and the history of the black magic.

There are several words that auto change cant remember who it was . But years ago we all got in a habit of sayin ****** *******s
He got tired of that and changed it also. know er about ers is the phrase . we would say that when needed info about a subject!
LOL

Pretty much just whim and winsey

[Mazeppa]

That name was extended to the football series to give that team up north relevance in the series. It only benefits them, so real OU fans will not use that term.

MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

We are IN!
