As I have said many times, Lubbock isn't exactly my favorite town. Despite that, there are several spots you need to go to (and steps you need to take) in order to maximize your college football Saturday. WeatherAs of Thursday morning, we are looking at around 60° and partly cloudy for kickoff with the temperature …
Over my years here at OU and traveling the Big 12, one town in particular stands out to me as the clear favorite: Fort Worth. Yes, yes, I know it's a city. And while it might be cheating to put a major city as my favorite place to visit in a conference full of one …
Oklahoma sports has taken me amazing places. I've seen the Sooners play from coast to coast, from the Rose Bowl in Pasadena to Pro Player/LandShark/Sun Life Stadium in Miami. I once watched a basketball game on the floor of a football colosseum. I've witnessed Baker plant his flag in The Shoe, three bouts of Bradford …

There really isn't anything quite like Oklahoma and Texas on the second Saturday in October. Everyone will tell you that until you are blue in the face, but seriously there is nothing quite like it. That being said, after 10 of them, I might be starting to wear out on the game. At least, until …
The road to hitting every game on the schedule isn't fully paved with classics. This weekend in Waco, certainly wasn't one of them. This trip was handled a little differently. Instead of staying Friday night and Saturday night in the game city, we actually did something a little differently this trip. We just drove to …
“Alright folks, it’s time to get out!”, an Ohio state trooper bellowed out to the few left in Ohio Stadium.
