Thread on OU board about the Hogs future, Nutt, and Petrino

[ToddW]

I tell you what.  I'm not one for talking smack, but to think that OU is some God's gift to football is a mistake.  There season was piss poor this year.  They are in a conference that doesn't have a lot of top tier teams.  As far as Arkansas goes, we have been building something up for the past ten years that will all come together. We are going to become one of the best football programs in the country.

With that being said, go back to your trailer park Sooner.  What the hell is a Sooner anyway?  I mean come on your mascot is a covered wagon pulled by two [CENSORED] horses.  How lame is that.  You guys should change it to a wide load double wide being pulled by two Peterbuilts, one names Sooner and the other named Boomer.  I think that would fit your state a lot more.  The only place worth living there is Tulsa, and I think there are more hog fans in Tulsa then there are actual Sooner fans.

We may not be an "elite" football team, but we are still better than the state of Oklahoma!

I know 2003 was a loss to Ole Miss loss because that was the O for October catastrophe.  I looked it up, we lost to Ole Miss 7-19, the score was NOT 20-48 Arkansas.  Where did that come from?

My point was made, was it not?  Mississippi schools have not had much success against us recently.  And they're definitely not "rising above Arkansas".  A Mississippi school has beaten us twice out of the past 8 years.  Arkansas is 14-2 against Mississippi schools over the past 8 years.  I'm sorry I messed up, but I'm pretty sure everyone could get the gist of what I was saying.

Oh and how far away is Arkansas from being top tier since you all got your butts handed to you by Missouri? BTW, Missouri lost to OU two times.

Yeah, OU is not elite. LMFAO@these tools.

MISSouri had a dream season. Great.  They beat up on us when while we had Ole Miss's coaches and a team that was in disarray.  I'm not taking anything away from MISSouri, they were up and we were down.  They wanted it more. They should celebrate along with the rest of the Big 12.   With that said, I still wouldn't trade programs, or the direction each program is headed, with the stepchildren to our north.

A cheater.  A fitting mascot for OU.

[OklaU]

You guys are so cute! 

[hawgfandude]

OU - you tha man.  Your awesome,  you are so Elite that your picture is in the dictionary under elite.  Now, go back to the Sooner Nation Board where you have kindred souls.  Or to the Bama Boards where you both sound identical.

Hey, I was born and raised in Oklahoma and still have family there.  I have lived in Arkansas since 1974.  I am very fond of both states.  The truth is that there are parts of both states [southern part of Arkansas] [west and panhandle of Oklahoma] that most people would not choose as their first place to live. There are some real arseholes in both states and there are some really great people in both states.  This thread is getting to be absurd.
OU has some really great fans---they also have some arragant fans [those who probabaly don't have a real life].  Arkansas has some really great fans--and when they start winning a great majority of the time you can bet that some arseholes will jump right on the bandwagon.  The truth is that Oklahoma and Arkansas have a lot more in common, both geographically and as a people than say--Arkansas/South Carolina.  Let me close by saying that both states also have some areas that are just breathtakingly beautiful. more so in Arkansas, but the northeastern part of Oklahoma is just as nice as the northwestern part of Arkansas.  If there wasn't a state line you wouldn't know when you went from one state to another.

LOL,  wasn't it the GOVERNOR OF ARKANSAS that put a doublewide on the mansion grounds and referred to the state as a "banana republic"?

Fans like those at that board are ones which make my OU alum husband feel grateful to be a Hog fan now.

The Ouachita Mountains in SE Oklahoma are even more stunning.  If you ever get the chance, drive OK 1 (Talimena Scenic Drive) from the Arkansas line to Talihina or US 259 from Page to Broken Bow.

I've read that the Arbuckle Mountains in south central Oklahoma are very scenic but I've only driven through them at night.

This cracks me up. Some Hog Hommer goes and finds something (usually under the guise of stirring the pot) about OU and then complains when the Sooners come over and talk about their superiority. I've got an idea; let's keep the homers over here and off the Sooner boards. If we keep sticking our toes on the boarder and telling them how great the SEC is (something most Sooners are aware of anyway) then don't act shocked when they hitch up the Schooner and remind us of the 7 national titles and a history most of us would kill to have.

And what exactly is the difference between an elite team and a tier 1 team? I'll tell you, perception. Notre Dame is in the gutter right now but they draw a large audience, have a giant fan base and a rich history behind them. Same with Bama. Michigan is considered elite and they've one 1/2 national title in 50 years. Yeah, I don't get it either but tradition plays a big role in college football and as long as the fans and the media gravy train national championships won while the Kiser was still in power in Germany then there will be a big chasm between elite and top tier.

[OklaU]

Good point. Horn killer.  I'm over here at Hogville, but I usually don't even mention the Sooners, unless it's provoked.

[zeke]

someone should remind those goobers that  they lost to freakin colorado this year ..elite as ou is and alll...

I love it when fans from Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, etc. trade insults about people living in trailer parks.
