While I'm here, can we touch on the College Football Kookiness for a moment, mmkay?
"The stars at night!

Deep in the heart...

How does Oklahoma lose to Texas Tech?
No really... how?
At least when Oregon lost to Arizona last Thursday, they had an excuse - Dennis Dixon goes down with a knee injury, Oregon is done. Plain and simple. But you'd think Bob Stoops wouldn't let the Sooners take their eyes off the ball against the Red Raiders. But the fans in Lubbock were partying like it's 1999:
I think it's richly ironic that #4 West Virginia - who was rooting so vociferously for Oklahoma to get punked by Texas Tech in that game - when they DO get their wish and the Sooners go down in flames, now they have to turn around and root like crazy for Oklahoma to WIN the Big 12 title.
Why? Simple - since #2 Kansas and #3 Missouri play one another this coming weekend, so one of them is going to lose and fall a handful of spots - and the Sooners will face the winner in the December 1 Big 12 championship game. 
If Oklahoma can play big brother and give their Big 12 baby brother some noogies, then the Mountaineers would slip-stream right past all of them into position for a shot at the national title game against (presumably) LSU. My head is spinning - I feel more confused than Paris Hilton attempting to complete the 'People' magazine crossword puzzle ("17 Down - Fill in the blank: Talking horse on TV named Mist_r Ed.")---JohnnyUnitas
