I really don't see any OU fans getting fired up about this. It really isn't that big of a deal considering the total games played by each school varies a good bit. I don't know the stats, but I would think winning percentage would be a better mark to compare the schools by. It might end up that they are the same order, I don't know without looking. The NCAA will give 'Bama back their wins, if for nothing else, to justify taking it easy on USC when it "comes down" on them.

Besides, I think that OU beat Alabama during the period that none of this happened and did not play during this period. For Tennessee, or any other program for that matter, to say that they now win the games played against bama is ludacris! It was text books for Pete's sake not performance enhancing drugs. The only book that would matter for the win are the play books. Fans that consider this a win for their program when they were strung out on the field is just sad. BOOMMER SOONER!

Thats what the NCAA did when OU appealed the 2005 vacated wins. Insofar as counting, however, the NCAA does count games, but leaves it to the individual schools to tally National Championships.

I hope we do eventually pass you, but we dont want to do it like this! Bama fans,

I am a Bama fan and have great respect for OU because the team as well as the fan base generally has class and carry themselves very well. I read an article yesterday on a UT sight. It was laughable. It was basically suggesting that UT is basically now the winner of a heartbreaker in 2005. I find it ludicrous that this is doled out as a punishment. To me it means nothing editing a piece of paper. It doesn't change history. I would much rather be told by the NCAA, \you guys didn't really win those games\, then to have scholarships or post-season play taken away. I think it's funny; really.

Alabama will get those wims back. Besides this is nothing to brag about. OU was in this same situation just a few years ago. We all know that Alabama is ahead of OU in overall wins. As an OU fan, this article is a joke, and saying that another programs troubles help OU is an insult to the university, and its football program. This doesnt help OU out at all.
