    The Big XII is just an all around hateful conference (not the only one mind you), but the fact that Oklahoma St is a tiny program that managed to hang around with the big boys incited some reputation by rivals that it was because Miles allowed bad apples etc.

    Substitute Saban for Miles and it kinda reminds me of some of the talk around here this time last year......

    I can't comment on the hate because I don't what you're talking about. I think you are right on in that Okie Lite, a "have-not", has been able to beat the big guys once in a while. That never makes you popular with the "haves".

    And OkieTiger, I've always liked OSU too....

    I know a few aggies & texas students, and when we talk football - they usually resort to attempting to downgrade the other team/coach, especially if they lose to them. I've also visited a few Texas & Oklahoma boards and got that same general impression.

    Gotcha. I live here, I've run into that too. But really, most years, no more so than anywhere else. It has been worse over the last 5-6 years although it's hard to argue with success. Now if Okie Lite would just beat 'em both..........:thumb:

    I'd like to see what Xavier Carter can do at CB...

    Thanks, Deek. I forgot about Francis.

    He's blazing fast, but I just don't think he's got the quick transition step (backpedal, etc.). Corners need a low center of gravity to change directions quickly. Xavier might be too tall, no?

    Nick Child was a fantastic player at Rummel. He and Craig Steltz were a heckuva tandem for the Raiders. I remember when Saban was here that Child was in his doghouse and there was some question whether he was going to be back.

    Did it ever come out what Nick Child did to get kicked off the team? Did he end up playing anywhere else?
