1. Um, yeah...
but I'm a Oklahoma Sooners graduate student. And my quarterback is smart AND awesome. So methinks I'm a bit biased.

4. Hey, michele77. What a win for OU! Congrats!
I live in Iowa City. My wife works for the UofI and I've been a season ticket holder for the 14 years we've been here. Other than that, I'm not biased in any way.

5. It was fantastic!
I'm so happy for the team! Still got one week to go, and we'll see how things shake out this afternoon.

The most annoying thing for me about the game? Watching the Spanish feed on ESPN. I'm learning the hand gestures of the refs and the Spanish words for them rather quickly!

6. I'm just hoping to be ranked for the first time this year.
That would be sweet.

7. You beat me to it!
Edited on Sun Nov-23-08 10:11 AM by Bluzmann57
The Heisman should be renamed "best qb award" or something like that. The four letter network has Ringer ranked ahead of Shonn Greene. And of course, the Big 12 qb's are ranked ahead of Greene. But when it comes to NFL glory and wealth, we shall see who does better. Prediction-Greene will remind people of the greatest running back in the history of football, Walter Payton, while Harrell, Bradford and the other Big 12 and SEC qb's will wash out, like most other Heisman winners.

8. Thank you, Bluzmann.
It astounds me that he's not even being mentioned. 12 100 yard games. That's with our inexperienced QB and defenses keying on him. He was pulled in the 3rd quarter last night or he could of had another 200 yard game. He'll get the Doak Walker but he deserves more attention. It's funny. We'd love to have him back for another year but we realize it's time to take the money and run. Literally.

9. At the beginning of the season I thought Daniels, then Harrell, now I think it will be Bradford.
Damn the Big 12 has some QBs this year. Either that or they don't play defense in the Big 12.

10. I think good defense in the Big 12 is non-existant, Captive.
From what I saw of Texas Tech's just confirmed it.
