• One of ESPN’s three Big 12 predictions for the year is that OSU will win the last Bedlam:

The Sooners and Cowboys have played 117 times since 1904. OU has a whopping 91-19-7 advantage in the series. The Pokes will get the last laugh in Stillwater with a 31-28 victory on Nov. 4.

The billboard said I was a sellout. The billboard was right. I’ve joined https://t.co/RyzmymYiT3. We launch Sept. 1, with Jenni Carlson, Guerin Emig, Eli Lederman, Brett Dawson, the Hutchens twins Sam and Ben, Ed Murray, Sam Mayes and Todd Lisenbee.
