I thought of this earlier. If we beat tOSU will we move up as Houston did? And will tOSU fall to 15? I doubt it.....

I'd bet if OU wins a close game, they both end up at 8 & 9 or 8 & 10. I wouldn't be surprised if tOSU were a spot in front, either...

Houston's win was not an upset. As much as I hate to admit it, they had the better coaches and team.

Well it may not have been in some eyes, but it was billed or called an upset by many sport outlets such as ESPN and others. Including the local affiliates here in Houston.

Considering OU dropped 10-11 points in most polls, I'd say that it was an upset. In hindsight, Houston was underrated at 15 and OU was overrated at 3.

You're all winners, unless you're a loser.... Then you're a whiner...
If you lose but identify with the winner, aren't you a winner in the Progressive way of thinking? If one does poorly statistically but identifies with the one having the better stats, do you legally claim the higher/better stats? If so, would we have to eliminate the need for stat sheets?

Frankly, I view any coin toss as discriminatory. How far does the left take this to satisfy their lust for "justice"?

I am easily confused.

Isn't the concept of winning and losing discriminatory?

Stay on topic.

You think too much. :rolleyes:

Are you sure? One can make the argument that virtually everything is discriminatory. How far does the Left take this crap?

You haven't thought enough about this. You are now discriminating against your own brain, which in turn makes it feel inferior to itself. Once you get to the point of no return, you will then feel the urge to be a different gender, making you depressed from the oppression of the MAN!!!

Back on Topic. Any time the favored team loses, it is an upset.
OU was favored by 12 points. Houston won. It was an upset.
Ohio St is favored by 3 points in Norman (5-6 neutral site). If OU wins, it is an upset.

humble, Thanks for getting us back on track.

I can probably count on one hand the number of times OU has been the underdog at Owen Field.
