I just read it's up to 38 to 40 M and that Nike is willing to pony up to $100 M for Oregon
I think at that point you will lose motivation. Kind of like you do with NFL, NBA, and MLB. We will see though.
I mean what do you expect, don’t really know any fans out there for any sport that want to jump online and talk about a loss.
Until you posted in this thread looking for crap the last post was in January lol. Lust much? I've posted in the other threads. OU got whooped and lost to a better team. KState has been able to do something that osu and texas can't do and that's beat OU regularly.
Especially when they talk alot of smack preseason about how great OU is lol.
There are a couple of other threads about yesterday's game.
Expectations for OU are still pretty high. It's possible that expectations were a little too high for a new coaching staff and significantly different team, but yesterday was a little dose of reality. I think OU is going in a good direction, and maybe they'll learn that no one is going to lay down and roll over for them. It normally takes a couple of years to get the players that fit your system, I think four games into the BV era they are not in bad shape, although yesterday was painful to watch.

So, I’ll throw this out there. I didn’t tune in till almost half time, was watching Arkansas-TXAM. First thing I hear from the commentators is all about OU’s “ELITE” defense. Them Martinez, who hasn’t done 
in his rather long collegiate career, puts up his record numbers. 5 TD’s, over 500 yards of offense, with an UNRANKED team that just lost to another UNRANKED team. Somebody please explain where the “elite” comes from?

You'd probably have to ask the announcers, since they are the ones that used that term. But OU's defense had looked pretty good in the first three games. So that's probably why.So, I’ll throw this out there. I didn’t tune in till almost half time, was watching Arkansas-TXAM. First thing I hear from the commentators is all about OU’s “ELITE” defense.

Martinez is a good player, and if I remember right gave OU trouble last year with Nebraska. Vaughn is a small but tough runner, reminds me of Quentin Griffin but maybe #22 has a little to do with that. OU had no answer for the run game, maybe the defensive game plan assumed KSU would try to pass more?
But you're right... OU did not play up to their potential, and KSU played their best game by far. Maybe they underestimated Martinez? Who knows?
FWIW, OU typically has one or two games a year where the defense just collectively loses their mind. I was hoping a whole new coaching staff would not adopt that tradition, but that's kind of what yesterday looked like.
