I hope that we get blown out in every game remaining. Only then will Yurcich be gone for sure. (CRFF)

OSU has fallen to 81st in the country in total defense and 111th in pass defense. These numbers aren’t as bad as they look because of pace of play but it is true that OSU’s defense hasn’t been as good as we thought it might be. (Tulsa World)

Uni Roundtable. At least we’re still pumping great combos! (PFB)

We already have a wonderful system of evaluating football teams. It’s called points. (NewsOK)

Since 2008, every team but one (Oklahoma State, 2013) who led the Big 12 in turnover margin also won the Big 12 title. This season, TCU has a turnover margin of +15, which is seven more than any team in the conference. (Fox SW)

Adrian Peterson will not go to jail. (Big Lead)

We aren’t ranked in the College Football Playoff rankings. (CBS Sports)

MSU’s Egg Bowl unis are weird. (CBS Sports)

Odell Beckham doing Dez-like stuff at receiver. Insane. (Big Lead)

It’s pretty stunning that there’s a lot of drama surrounding RG3, isn’t it? (Sports Illustrated)

More stuff I’m reading

Ira Glass on Car Talk is good. (Vox)

When mass culture meets public health, change that once seemed unfathomable can occur pretty rapidly. Also, well-educated Obama voters are more likely to not let their kids play football. Fascinating article. (NYT)

The digital asset that matters is trust. (Godin)

How one meeting can cost a company 300,000 hours. (99U)

If you want to increase the number of people who sign up for something, give it away for free. If you want to increase the number of people who show up and are invested in what you’ve created, consider charging. (Acuff)
