Bob Stoops is the supposed genius and former Steve Spurrier disciple that is the head coach for the number two ranked Oklahoma Sooners.
Bob Stoops has everything going for him: an undefeated record, a ridiculously easy schedule, and voters who clearly are demonstrating an anti-Auburn bias. So what does he do now that Auburn has closed the gap a little?
He blames ESPN, stating that because they have a contract with the SEC, the network has a vested interest in the Tigers making the Orange Bowl.
Hey Bob. You may not have noticed this, since you clearly have your head shoved very far up your own ass, but ESPN is owned by Disney, and they also own ABC. You’re familiar with ABC…right? You know, the network with a contract with YOUR conference, the BCS AND THE FUCKING ORANGE BOWL???
I can’t believe that if this clown had just kept his yap shut, he’d have probably gotten into the Orange Bowl on his own. Now, he’s attracting even more attention to Auburn by voters who may not have given the Tigers a real look.
So now, Auburn goes into it’s final game of the regular season against it’s in-state rival, knowing that if it wins, it will gain even more votes on the Sooners.
Not so fast though. Remember, Oklahoma still has to play mighty Baylor and then play the winner of the Big Twelve’s Northern division. That team will have either four or five losses, many of those losses to BAD schools. And NONE of this is going to help Oklahoma’s cause very much.
So you see, it’s not about Auburn vs. Oklahoma or anything else. This week is all about Auburn vs. Alabama. Period. I fully believe that if the Tigers take care of their own business, the rest of the stuff will fall into place.
And if Auburn wins out and moves to number two in the polls thanks to two coaches in the northeast who didn’t give a shit until Stoops started running his pie hole about all of life’s inequities, then I will be happy.
War Eagle everybody.
p.s. Look for my Auburn - Alabama preview either today or tomorrow…
What say you?
