Well that’s a bummer.  I guess Ohio State is pretty bad.  Oklahoma is definitely no better than mediocre.

Texas is gonna kill us next week.  They have a much better defense.  We probably won’t even get 10 yards rushing.

You see that's the fun thing about college football.  Your team can look like the '85 Bears one week and unbearable the next.

So the Sooners looked like crap today?  It's not like they forgot how to play football.

Course if I were a Sooner fan, I'd try to mitigate future risk by acknowedging, but not inciting the ECFGs.

And if I were a Texas fan, I’d wonder what I (and all my fellow shaggy bevoids) did to piss them off so mightily since about the time of the 2009 mnc game.

If I believed in the ECFGs that is ... winkie winkie

ISU is not my team, but I was amazed. Iowa State just improved their all-time series record against the Sooners to 6-74-2. 

Iowa State is on the rise.  I believe this is a trend.  Enrollment is up, and it is now bigger than the U of Iowa. 2nd largest stadium in the Big 12, I think. Matt Campbell is a good coach. Their recruiting seems to be picking up. Iowa barely beat them in OT this year.

Iowa State has some good receivers. I had no idea they had a pretty good 3rd string QB, did anyone else? Take notice Big 12, Iowa State will challenge.

Close.  After recent expansion, Jack Trice stadium in Ames is the 3rd largest stadium in the B12.

UT, Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium 100,119
OU, Memorial Stadium 82,122
ISU, Jack Trice 61,500

I like ISU's football program, they're the prototypical lovable underdog.

I tried to tell everyone Iowa St was good before Texas played them.

I was given the skippy treatment, and assured that nothing but a UT win would be accepted.

And that hasn't changed.  Losing to ISU would have been just as unacceptable for Texas fans, as it is for Sooner fans right now.

That's unfortunate because Sooners were ranked #4, while Texas was coming off three 7-loss seasons.

You're behind the times.  OU is up to 86,112 with the recent expansion.

Ironic.... given the fact a horn listed the stadium capacities.
