Returning the favor

Walk-on
Hello All!

First off, yes I am a big time OU fan. Always have been, always will. That being said, I have the utmost respect for Husker football and pulled for you when, of course, we were not facing each other.

Before this gets too corny, I just wanted to say this; A few years ago, I had the good fortune of going to the Senior Bowl. OU was in the midst of some very low years which was really frustrating for the Sooner Nation and myself. I had the good fortune of meeting up with Cornhusker fans during the game. This was during Mr. Osbornes latter years and you guys were racking up the titles. As we were talking, those fans were extremely nice and expressed their belief that it would not be long before the Sooners were back and feeding the monster again. After that we just enjoyed the game and talked of the good old days when our game was IT and usually a chance for all the marbles.

I really appreciated that gesture and just wanted to return the favor. Coach Tom knows what to do and will help right the ship. Here's hoping that it will be extremely quick and order will be restored.

I have to say, it brought back a flood of memories when we matched up in the big 12 championship last year. For that one day, all was right in college football again. And YES, I thought that before the final outcome was decided!

Good Luck! Here's hoping for more head to head matchups and great memories!

Thanks All! Oh yeah I will definitely be dropping in from time to time. I must admit, living in Florida now, I do not get all the news on the Big12. I bet you all can help me keep up. Out here it is nothing but Gators here or Seminoles there. Thank goodness for the internet.

and let's not forget the South Florida Bulls.

I have the same problem trying to keep up with the Huskers while living in Daytona Beach. Thank goodness for SIRIUS. At least that coverage makes me "feel at home" back in St. Paul NE.

Welcome Sooner and thanks for the kind words. I feel it is only a matter of time before Nebraska and OU are in the Big XII Championship game every year. :thumbs
