Auburn has itself to blame for scheduling teams like The Citadel. Texas could have even been in the mix for that one had they been able to score a single point on Oklahoma. Auburn's own choices for its out of conference schedule made far more of a difference than Stoops voting them down.
Stoops felt he belonged, and has on many occasions stated that he supports making the coach's vote public.
If we're talking Big XII coaching douches, you have to mention Leach, Franchione and Callahan as front runners.
