I had a great week-end. OU finally showed me some resolve and thrashed West Virginia. You know…it is what it is, I think if OU can mentally retain this mental focus the football gods will forgive them for their uninspiring performances in Lawrence and Stillwater and perhaps allow the Sooners to backdoor their way into the Dr. Pepper Big 12 Championship Game.
The fact O State lost at UCF did not surprise me in what was a classic trap game. But the fact UCF beat them 48-3 shocked me given UCF has pretty much a porous defense.
Given Mike Gundy’s performance to date this season…I think I’ll keep those thoughts to myself and see how O State responds this Saturday at Houston.
As Bush 43 famously once said, ” Fool me once…it’s on you you, fool me two or three times…it’s on somebody else or maybe me.”
Sigh.
I watched the Thunder play last night at Phoenix and was very impressed.
I mean JDub is a Bad, Bad, Smart Dude. Whereas…Russell Westbrook was a Bad Little Dude who never came to terms with making the smart play in critical time and score situations.
My TSNS Meter hit 9.5 on JDub’s performance.
I mean… whoa. I know Devin Booker wasn’t there and Bradley Beal appears to be washed up pretty much. But, whoa.
I’ve now changed my mind for the third time on the upcoming OKC Bond Vote on the arena proposal.
Pay the billion you Oklahoma Trump suckers. MJ… who lives outside of the voting boundaries on the Deer Creek ranch would love to see SGA, JDub, Chet, and Lu hang together. As for Giddey…he needs to consider the possibility of becoming the Sixth Man and giving this team a stellar bench….ala CP3.
I’ll be covering the first Chet-Wemby square-off tomorrow. Maybe Chet can wear his Steph Curry jersey for me.
