Future

I look forward to the day that I can be like Sooner fan Saturday, grumbling about how ugly a win was, how the team played 3/4 speed, lost the TO battle 0-3, was held scoreless for the first 36 minutes, and was generally outplayed and still managed to win. What a luxury.

The word is that 27 of somebody's Top 100 recruits were in Ames Saturday. They were the guests of ISU, too, and generally liked what they saw. I'm not used to hearing news like that. Gene isn't setling for whatever ends up at the kid's table for talent. Good for him.

I wonder if the Time Out at the end of the first half was used to jaw at the refs for their mornic timekeeping or to make Stoops run one more play in a "We aren't done here until I say we're done here" kind of statement.

If the Cyclones had taken steps back against Tech and UTA, they made a huge leap forward against OU in execution and effort. Score TDs in the red zone and things will get interesting.

Again, the season ticket requirement for the SUI game paid dividends Saturday. About 15 thousand more people apeared than should have. When you already have the tickets you find a way to Trice. Genius.
