I miss the dominating defense. You remember, the kind you could count on?

To bad the wishbone offense is not used like it was years ago. It was a team oriented offense and not suited to the Me The Star egos of today's players.

Okies had what amounted to a pro defense in 74, eight or nine of the eleven starters were starting in the pros two or three years later. They said that the only team which was able to move the ball against them at all was their own (wishbone) offense in scrimmages.
