    With uw's front 7 they won't have to commit extra people to the box to stop sanders and the ok st rush attack. I am worried about the freshman corners being isolated on Blackmon though. If peters were still here it would be a 34-17 game. Now. Not so much.

    I think Weeden is going to be the oldest QB to start a bowl game @ 37.

    Leave it to Barry Switzer to find a loophole to have a guy like that on the roster.

    Wow, really excited to play the Sooners again. Hope someone has the opportunity to go on the OU board and tell them about the Fighting Doogs! I remember all the classy Okies back in 1984 giving UW a standing ovation.

    I know you guys are being sarkastic but Norman OK on game day is a great setting for a fall afternoon

    I remember Thurman Thomas running all over Husky Stadium in the 1985 opener after the Sooner fans gave us a standing O at the Orange Bowl. Big loss

    UW won at Stillwater a couple years earlier.

    Do you remember who sang the national anthem that day? Extra points for the right answer.
