Newsflash

Just as coincidence, I was thinking the other day about how a college like Oklahoma State landed the likes of Barry Sanders AND Thurman Thomas on the same team at the same time. If you've ever been to Stillwater Oklahoma, you'd understand my attitude. No offense to Eskimo Joes, but there's really nothing to do there. We used to say, being Sooner fans and all, "Stillwater Oklahoma on a Friday night, Where men are men and sheep are nervous."

Now we've got this list, dominated by the Big 12, and Texas Tech and Oklahoma come in #1 and #2 as the dirtiest programs ever, using this sites own criteria. Pretty interesting. Take a peek. SHOW ME THE DIRT .
