Oklahoma Prevails Over Texas, Heads to Big 12 Championship
The Daily Oklahoman ^ | 11/30/08 | Jake Trotter

Oklahoma is Kansas City Bound

The Sooners survived Texas’ furious political campaign to finish ahead of the Longhorns in the BCS rankings and advance to the Big 12 Championship.

Because OU, Texas and Texas Tech all finished in a three-way tie atop Big 12 South, the tiebreaker was decided by the team ranked highest in the BCS. OU will play Big 12 North champ Missouri on Saturday night in Kansas City.

Oklahoma vs. Florida would be a great title game matchup. I don’t think Alabama will win the SEC. Missouri has really faltered lately - I don’t give the Tigers much of a chance against OU.

Kind of sad that both teams in the Big 12 Championship lost to Texas. And Texas’ only lost was due to a dropped interception by freshman. How much longer are we to accept the BCS system?

When you can shell out enough coinage to change college president's minds... good luck with all that... unless you're Warren Buffett &/or Bill Gates.

This was a 3 way tie. BCS takes out feelings and looks at facts. Facts like OU beat OSU at OSU by 20 points while Texas barely beat OSU by 4 at Texas.

As my husband says, “Just remember, that is someone’s daughter” ;^)

While I agree with your husband's sentiments and probably his reasoning as well, my father use to say something similar, "Even the prostitutes and whores have parents." (meaning everyone has someone who loves them).

I must say that while these girls are quite beautiful, not every parent raises their children with high moral standards, in fact, many have standards that are quite low. Just look at the cheap women spattered across the Internet.

By the way, I have two pre-teen daughters. My worrying days are coming ... although they are currently very involved in church and school.
