Open Thread: Stanford Cardinal vs. Oklahoma Sooners

Sitting on a plane at DFW, reading this on Blackberry, the surreality of this thread is, shall we say…..substantial.
A robust sooner loss would bring in the new year nicely.

I have never seen anything like OU’s injuries this year.

Landry Jones is fucking terrible. Wide open TE for the first down and he throws a high-risk pass 7 yards further downfield.

How could anyone not root for Toby Gerhart…
Does Toby know he is at the Sun Bowl or does he think this is another Special Olympics event?

I’d like to quiz every announcer who refers to Toby as a throwback.
“So why do you refer to him as a throwback?”
“Well um you see it’s really um because um what I’m trying to get at is um you see…”
“Because he’s white?”
“(sighing) yeah.”

I’m not sure, but I think every Stanford player on the field for that touchdown was white. Hard not to score with 11 coaches on the field.

Houston hasn’t played defense since they had Lamar Lathon, Craig Veasey, Alfred Oglesby etc.

Jeez….I caught myself leaning having sympathetic feelings towards the sooners based on national perception of our conference and that nasty leg injury, but after Stanford scored I instinctively celebrated and snapped back to the reality that I innately despise them. OU sucks and I hope they continue to do so.

Ghost,

I believe the large black man on the left end of the line might have actually been the TE in the jumbo package. I suppose that would make more sense, given the additional athleticism required of a TE.

Soonerspy, were these the same boosters that threw the party that inspired this McFarland whopper?

"I will never forget the excitement amongst all participants," McFarland wrote. "Alcohol was all you can drink, money was not an option. Girls were acting wild by taking off their tops, and pulling down their pants. Girls were also romancing each other. Some guys loved every minute of the freakiness some girls demonstrated. I have never attended a party of this magnitude."

He continued: "The attitude of the people at the party was that everyone should drink or not come to the party. Drugs were prevalent with no price attached."

He compared that with a house party hosted by a sorority at Oklahoma.

"Drinks were plentiful, but not to the extent they were" at the Dallas party, he wrote. "Some people were tipsy, but in control of themselves."

He described the atmosphere as pleasant and added: "Some people who attend the University of Oklahoma seem to represent different values than some people who attend the University of Texas."

Wow. The coaching staff for Standford is even dumber than Stoops. 4th and 2 and you don’t get the ball to your Heisman candidate? You let your shitty back-up QB make a terrible throw? Allsome.

Congrats to the Dirt Burglars on finally getting a bowl win after half a decade or so!

On a side note, is Broyles eligible for the NFL Draft?

OK – So in defense of my original call, I claim sloth and gluttony. I completely spaced, forgot, never knew that Andrew Luck wasn’t playing. That fucking QB they had out there couldn’t start for Nebraska.

I think if Luck is there, they win it.

Fair enough. I did know Luck wasn’t playing and STILL took the points.

Well, it looks like Small Game Bob was back in his element today, squeaking out a win in a non-BCS bowl game over a mediocre Pac-10 team lead by its backup quarterback in his first start of the season. Impressive!

Texas fans will spend needless energy taking away credit from Oklahoma but this was a good win for them. A well coached, physical team that came to play and got the lead on them was unable to put them away. In games past the Sooners have had a tendency to fold when someone punches them in the mouth.

Today they stayed in the game despite nothing really on the line and won. The fact that they are celebrating an otherwise meaningless game is more pride than those seniors have ever shown, IMO.

Not without Luck it wasn’t.

Well, the Sooners sure as shit showed more pride than UH and Missouri did today. They had a number of chances to lie down like dogs and they didn’t.

Hey, if OU loses, we get to celebrate.

If they win, we might get a little reflected benefit of the doubt for our win over them.

Until, of course, Bob Fucking Stoops and his Fucking Coaching Tree and Childhood Best Pals start their back-channel media campaign trying to let everyone knows that Texas is soft, Texas is overrated, and here are a few tips we’ve come up with on how to beat them this year (but didn’t use).

“Not without Luck it wasn’t.”

They have no control over that. The end result is they demonstrated an ability to do something they have not been able to do in recent years. This does not mean they are preseason favorites to win the South. It simply means a good win today for Oklahoma.

For maybe the first time ever, I agree with newy. Only the dumbest of dumb motherfuckers would look at this game and say “With Andrew Luck in, Stanford wins this game.” Ripley, I have an enormous amount of respect for you, but that’s the kind of ignorant shit normally reserved for me (or CloseToJumping) to say.

Yes, OU would’ve lost if Andrew Luck was playing.

OU would’ve won by 50 if we’d had the following players healthy for the entire game:
Auston English
Jarvis Jones
Brian Lepak
Ben Habern
Sam Bradford
Jermaine Gresham
Adrian Taylor (and)
Brody Eldridge

Anyone referring to Stanford’s one major loss to injury as the difference maker in this game can go ahead and die in a fire. We were starting our left tackle at center.

The one card you don’t get to pull on OU is the injury card. We’ve got the royal flush on that game.

Side Note: If my memory serves me correctly, this is the first time since 2006 that OU has come from behind at halftime to win a game against a ranked team.

At what point does “die in a fire” jump the shark for you? Just for that, I’m putting ice in my Crown Cask.

Nate -

Context, hombre.

I was not saying that if the Sooners were at full strength and Andrew Luck had been able to play, he would be the deciding factor in a Stanford win. We all realize that had you had all your guys this year, you’d be busy getting ready to lose a BCS bowl.

I was discussing why in my initial post, way at the top of the page, I had picked Stanford in today’s game. I already knew that half your team was on crutches, in a splint, or on penicillin. What I didn’t know about TODAY’S GAME was that Luck was out. Had Luck played TODAY, I think Stanford would have won.

Capiche?

Nate’s quick post game thoughts are here and he and the rest of the Boomer & Sooner crew promise a more thorough break down in the next day or two.

You can say “I am stupid” to the tune of “Boomer Sooner” without missing a beat. Fits perfectly (rhythmically, substantively, and logically).

And I strongly prefer Johnny Walker Blue to Crown Cask — which preference may explain why I just typed that.

Wow, Sailor is much more diplomatic than I am. If we want to engage in pedantic masturbation excercises by refuting the Luck aspect with a laundry list of Sooner injuries, let’s take this motherfucker to its logical conclusion. Talent acquisition. One team on the field does it the right way, the other, well not so much.

Gerhart’s jaw is such that I believe he might be able to chew through a bank vault. That cannot be natural.

I"m know they don’t have any control over Luck’s injury. Stanford without Luck probably doesn’t make any bowl game period. That is why OU fans shouldn’t consider it a good win. We’ve been making fun of them for losing BCS bowls. They’ve won the other ones like the Holiday (Oregon) and Cotton Bowls (Arkansas) in the past 10 years. Them winning a shitty bowl game over a shitty team (with no Luck) shouldn’t mean shit to a program like OUs.

I think Harbaugh and Stanford have a lot to play for and will win this. I can see the handful of non-injured Sooners who have NFL futures, thinking more about that.

Nice call.
