How Oklahoma Can Lasso Themselves a Big 12 Championship Berth: A Guide for the Sooner Faithful
Howdy, Sooners! It's that time of year again. College football season is still a ways off, but a champion's mentality starts simmering early, right? So, let's address the elephant in the room, or rather, the crimson and cream elephant wearing a fancy championship hat: how do the Sooners get back to the Big 12 title game?
How Can Oklahoma Make The Big 12 Championship |
The Straight Dope:
Let's be honest, folks. The path ain't exactly paved with Sooner Schooner confetti. Our rivals over in Stillwater are lookin' mighty feisty, and the conference is only getting tougher with those fancy new additions from out west (sorry, Utah and Colorado, but brisket doesn't magically appear on grills, you gotta learn!).
Tip: Look out for transitions like ‘however’ or ‘but’.
But fear not, Sooner fans! We've overcome adversity before (remember Tebow's magical shoes?), and with the right plan, we can be hoisting that championship trophy once again.
Operation: Big 12 Boot Scootin' Boogie
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
- Become BFFs with the Texas Longhorns (For Now): Look, we might not always see eye to eye with those burnt orange folks, but this year, we need them to channel their inner bulldozers and knock down Oklahoma State in their head-to-head matchup.
- OU Offense: Unleash the Fury! We all know the Sooners are offensive powerhouses. Time to dust off the playbook, channel your inner Baker Mayfield swagger, and light up the scoreboard like a Sooner Schooner parade.
- Defense? What Defense? Okay, maybe we should shore up the defense a tad. But hey, a good offense is the best defense, right? (Disclaimer: This tactic may not be endorsed by all football analysts)
- Sooner Magic: It's a Real Thing, Y'all! Don't underestimate the power of crimson pride and a little bit of Sooner magic. Sometimes, the football gods just favor the bold and the orange.
Bonus Tip: Stock up on antacids. This season's gonna be a nail-biter.
