Football misc.

That should impress the football committee. OU, or Texas, or OSU, or Kansas State, or Baylor, could bust its buttons and tell America, “they drew our name out of a hat.” (NewsOK)

Mike Gundy quotes are the best. “What I’ve learned in this job is, for a certain extent, they pay me to think.” Well, they don’t pay you to construct proper sentences. (ESPN)

Todd McShay has Emmanuel Ogbah going No. 5 (!) to Tampa Bay in next year’s NFL Draft. I’m probably slotting him too early here, but Ogbah has an intriguing skill set and was highly productive during the 2014 season. (ESPN Insider)
