I watched the first half of the NC game the other day. It still amazed me how much OU dominated that half – except for the goal line plays. You have to give Florida credit – and I dont think enough people do – they came up with some big plays, its a fine line when two great teams play each other – and that was definitely the case in that game.

Scared or not, OU still lost when Florida and Tebow decided to take charge
of the game. There have been public schools do the same as private on
“jockying” their enrollment for classification purpose’s. Ada was most guilty
of this for years. Recruiting is the bigger issue, especially in 6 & 5A. I
remember when Edmond brought in Che Foster from MWC area, Blankenship’s
big “transfer”. Tulsa area schools thrive on “transfer’s” and what is the
underlying factor, besides promise’s, $$$! It’s a fact of life in big time HS
Football. Some of these kids come up on it their whole career and when they
get to college old habits are hard to break. Like ‘Roids in Texas schools, or
holding grade school kids back because of size. Their are some sick coach’s
and parents out there.

Berry, OU’s running game is just fine. Florida has some pretty darn fine defensive players. And there has not been one Florida fan I have spoken with after the game since I live here in Florida who has not said OU had the crap scared out of them in the first half. Most followed by saying, we were lucky to hold on long enough to get our offense moving….are the the UF fans smarter than ours? To read this blog we got blown out….-greg
