And OU just didn't play that day.
Of course, when a college team plays a pro team, what else do you expect?
*snicker* Of course, I'm not impliying anything about the University of Spoiled Children... But they should be aware of what happened to other schools that did that...

In case you missed it (or should i say "were too dense to pick it up" le sigh), I was using "big 8" as a perjorative, kiddo. Cute though, I loooooooove the insinuation of impropriety at USC, because obviously the GREAT OU FOOTBALL PROGRAM (c) has never been accused of such things. There's never been large-scale car-and-money programs there in the 70s and early 80s. Never.
OH, and a good friend of my family's who works in a major college athletic dept never lost a recruit to OU because, in his exact words, "we couldn't afford him." Funny, the only other school that ever happened with was Nebraska . . . go big 8. You are not a unique snowflake - almost every major football program has problems with booster money, whether they like it or not. Knock off the apologist garbage.
You got your asses kicked - don't act like USC is doing something wrong to cover it up. Take your medicine and shut up - the big8 (or should i say "XIII") has been overrated for years. Stoops should have taken the Florida job when he had the chance.
