Heupel.\u00a0 They cannot get over the fact that the former offensive coordinator at OU under Bob Stoops was fired and that Coach Heupel had hard feelings toward the situation.\u00a0 Well, let it go and be happy for the former great player that brought your Sooners a National Championship.\u00a0 A person does not have to be all fricken elated in getting fired, does one?\u00a0 Heupel has developed in one of the best coaches in football and the Vols improvement and win yesterday against the Alabama football team proves it.\u00a0 Again Sooner fans, if you hold anything against Coach Heupel you are the problem.\u00a0 Good game Tennessee.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It was a very cooperating night for me to see the USC Trojans go down to a defeat in Utah last night.\u00a0 Could not happen to a better program and coach in USC and Lincoln Riley.\u00a0 Trojan fans, you to got what you wanted in Coach Riley.\u00a0 He is a winner, great offensive mind, and and I might add, a West Texas scumbag deluxe.\u00a0 Enjoy it while you can as Mr. Riley will be out of LA soon when the NFL jobs open up and the dollars come a calling.\u00a0 This coach\u00a0 chases the money as well as any coach.\u00a0 Good game Utes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9837\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9837\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a

Oklahoma State played a classic in the Metroplex as the Toads took a\u00a0 43-40 double overtime win in a sold out Carter Stadium.\u00a0 Two facts to point out.\u00a0 The OSU defense, having played over a 100 plays last week, were worn out by the secod half and that overtime proved it as much as the final quarter where TCU came back from a two touchdown deficient.\u00a0 As a local sports writer (Berry Tramel) pointed out, Coach Mike Gundy should have gone for the win with a two point conversion for the win but he went the kick extra point too.\u00a0 I think that was a mistake.\u00a0 TCU and OSU are my favorites to play in the Big 12 title game in December if the Pokes can take care of business this Saturday in a home game with Texas.\u00a0 I think they will.\u00a0 Good game TCU.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>My faith in the Oklahoma Sooners and head coach Brent Venables improved a thousand percent in their win over the Jayhawks of Kansas in Norman.\u00a0 The Sooners with Dillion Gabriel are as good an offensive team in the league and they can beat anyone still on their schedule.\u00a0 Yet with a defense that can go south immediately, they can also lose to any.\u00a0 Winning six games will still be a bitch but I think they can do it.\u00a0 Good game Oklahoma.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9835\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9835\" style=\"width: 750px\"
