No excuses – time for Sooners to get tough

Well crap. Not much to say that you probably haven’t already heard from the talking heads and around the water cooler at work.

Just a crappy night all around.

I guess we should have seen it coming when we started to hear about all the injuries during the week. Four starters out by the time the game kicked off.

That’s almost 20% of the starting 22. (Reminded me alot of the West Virginia Fiesta Bowl).

On top of that you add a hungry Tech team, a Sooner team that might have read too many of their press clippings, and a 90 minute weather delay and you get the perfect storm. Perfect for Tech anyway.

And, oh by the way, when he ran back on the sidelines in the fourth quarter? The team doctors had given him the ok to go back in the game.
