This is something I didn’t see coming and that makes it even sweeter as Skip Johnson’s Sooners only need one win in the next two games versus the No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs to punch their ticket to the championship finals opposite the winner of North Carolina vs. West Virginia.
This is like an epic movie such as Field of Dreams or The Natural. I mean…this run by the Sooners has been close to what MJ would describe as semi-biblical. OU Coach Skip Johnson has evoked the name of God several times and I’m with him on that.
I know…I know….that’s not how God works. But still. There’s so many acts perpetrated by Trump that God would deem more worthy to address than the fate of a baseball team. The Sooners fate pales in comparison, but its hard not to take destiny and fatedom into account on this incredible late season surge.
We all have our superstitions in baseball. Our spiritual rituals before the next huge game. I certainly have mine.
In about two hours… I’ll start my game preparations for my exclusive okcthunderground.com coverage of tonight’s game versus the heavily favored No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs who have a NIL roster/payroll more like that a professional team than that a group of overacheiving kids from Norman.
Don’t back down guys…dream big.
