The details

OSU just screwed up all Missouri's stats during the game.  Right from the start, OSU stopped Missouri from a scoring initial drive, which they have done all season, and forced them to go for the field goal.  Shortly after that, OSU lead the game for a good amount of time, and Missouri had only been in that position for, I believe, 17 seconds against Illinois at the start of their year.  They were in the trailing position for most of the game.  Then, the Cowboys forced the Tigers to go 3 and out for the first time all season, and the Tigers only made 2 out of 9 3rd down conversions all game.  Daniel, the Tiger's QB, had only had one interception all year...  3 this game.  Our defense has really come out in the past 2 games, and I really don't see it being ranked anywhere near as low as it was previously, we'll see.  If they can keep it up, I honestly see us having not only a good year, but a "where did they come from?" year.  I'm a happy man, especially since my wife just brought home some leftover filet from Mahogany Steakhouse.   Mmmmmmmm...  Go Cowboys!

Elation

I just finished watching the OSU v Missouri Game. One of the best games I have ever watched. The heart is pumping, I have been yelling and cheering, and the kids now bleed pure orange. A majority of the guys at work are Sooner fans, and sorry to say, they didn't fair so well today. This means the office is going to be an awkward place on Monday. I know at least 2 are going to be in a VERY foul mood, which means making sure I don't smile toooo much. ;) After today, I truly believe we can be OU at the end of the season, and, dare I say it, could there be a national championship game in our future? I think I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, but wow, it's a possibility. All I know is that some people will be eating crow for giving me crap about saying OSU was going to beat Missouri today. Truly though, I wish OU had pulled through, it would have made for a much more festive day, and me shoveling a lot more crow.

Getting caught up

I fixed several links to images over the last year's worth of posts.
On a side note, I'm posting again to my philosophical / theological blog here.
