Overkill with any other Sooner match-up, but some people around here think nothing of humiliating the Longhorns to the Nth degree. Not sure if I should be proud of my alma matter or ashamed.

I have no dichotomy about this at all. I am PROUD of my alma mater.

I was in school at OU when Bud Wilkinson became head coach. I was present at President George L Cross's speech in which he said we should create a university our football team could be proud of.

We had a a five or six year period of wandering in the wilderness under Gibbs and Blake. But the Sooner Schooner is now on an even keel, and all's right with the world.

And to his great credit, David Boren had the good sense to go along with the hiring of Bob Stoops when the chips were finally really down.
