Sports Illustrated Jinx X 4...

[da wiz]

The cover of Sports Illustrated...Oklahoma...

HOWEVER, SI has published Covers with the other 3 Playoff Teams Featured, as well, so, Yep...3 of 'em ARE Jinxed!

At least, they spelled Bob Stoops' name correctly. Not so, with MS's Coach...They called him Mike, rather than Mark Dantonio, and are having to re-publish those issues...

Ha! I love it.
You'd think they'd hockey up the last name. Oh well.

This is a good thing. I must get a copy for the archives, and no, I don't put much stock in the SI jinx either.

We've won after a cover and lost after a cover. It's pure serendipity as far as I'm concerned.

Boomer freakin' Sooner!

I'll buy a copy of the NC issue. They should have Coach Stoops name correct in that one.

Pretty sure that those are regional covers. So if you lived in South Carolina or ACC territory, you got one with Clemson on the cover.

And in Alabama, ..

And in the midwest ....

And on the west coast, you probably got a Rose Bowl cover featuring Stanford. They usually skip a week at the end of the year, so there won't be another cover until after the semi's.

Reminds me of my dear departed Ma.
Every Christmas for 17 years she bought me a subscription to SI magazine.
I miss that too...not as much as her though.
