Daily Bullets (Aug. 16): 1,000 Days Since OU Beat OSU in Football

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

Three Thoughts

• Yesterday marked 1,000 days since Oklahoma has beaten Oklahoma State in football – what a gift (HCS)

• I don’t love anything about the University of Oklahoma but charging for fans to attend the post-game football presser is brilliant (CBS Sports)

• Michigan was fined a ton yesterday for the sign-stealing debacle and PFB’s Marshall Scott rightly pointed out the unfairness/inconsistency of this punishment compared to OSU’s postseason ban – a great example of the NCAA pulling punches for a blueblood (PFB)

Two Quotes

• Bill Self had more health issues recently and here’s what his doctor had to say about him continuing to coach: 

Self described a moment in his recovery when he asked his surgeon if retirement should be on the table. The doctor’s response was simple and direct: if he loves what he does, he should keep doing it. For now, that remains Self’s path forward. [HCS]

• Themed games for the fall:
