Boomers gettin’ boomed

The Boomer Sooners are gettin’ it handed to them, 21-10 at the half, by the boys from the blue turf. Couldn’t happen to a nicer Big 12 team, if it has to happen to a Big 12 team. I was glad to see Tech win, and just a tad sorry to see Nebraska lose, but Oklahoma? I really don’t mind if I do see them get run over–even by a WAC team.

The Fat Guy has the right attitude:

"I’m kinda happy about having Boise State bust up the Usual Suspects of New Year’s Day. That should be fun to watch – I hope they ruin the Boomer Sooner’s day; not because I don’t like OU, but because I think the Blue Astroturf guys winning creates some chaos and drives water-cooler talk."

True. All true. But it also doesn’t hurt to see the Longhorns’ nemesis get shellaced, either. 

UPDATE  The Sooners got WACed, 43-42 in overtime, on a faked pass. Quite a game.
