Football News

To clap or not to clap on snap counts. Good, interesting post from Thomas F. [PFB]

Berry Tramel: “Chris Carson led OSU in rushing last season with 517 yards. Raymond Taylor was next, with 297 yards. Perhaps it’s time to officially strip the Cowboys of the Tailback U. designation.” [NewsOK]

Projecting the depth chart at safety. Tough to beat a Tre Flowers/Jordan Sterns starting combo. [PFB]

Ashton Lampkin on missing his classmates: “You come in with those guys and you don’t leave with them. It’s kind of awkward. There’s a friendship there. You learn to play with other guys; you’re trained to keep moving, but as a friend thing … I just talked to (Emmanuel) Ogbah last night andKevin Peterson the night before that. But not having them here with you is different.” [NewsOK]

So what if lawsuits like this keep happening? [Yahoo]

I keep forgetting this Baylor guy is in the mix to play defensive line. [Tulsa World]

The most efficient offensive teams of the Mike Gundy Era. [PFB]

Marcus Arroyo on Jeff Carr: “[He’s] probably one of the top five guys that you’ll see and go, ‘Wow, his body looks different.’” [NewsOK]

Dez, freak show. [PFB]

Gundy says Barry J. is nothing like his dad. [PFB]

Also, this.

Four star PFB names OSU in his final five along with Dayton, Tennessee, Pitt and UConn. [PFB]

Expansion News

A LGBT advocacy group is trying to prevent BYU to the Big 12. [Yahoo]

Also, this is probably true.

If Houston talks its way into Big 12, it'd be one of the biggest coups in CFB history. Gigantic, valuable move for them. Awful for league.

It'd basically be like OKC trading Westbrook to the Lakers for Jordan Clarkson and draft picks.

Carson made this, and I’m biased, but it’s pretty awesome.
