The Texas Longhorns are playing the USC Trojans tonight for the national football championship. While I'm inclined to be true to my school, I have the feeling that the steers are gonna get smeared tonight. I imagine both of my readers know that I did my undergrad at Oklahoma, so my loyalties lie with UT's traditional rival. Watching OU choke in the last two national championship games leads me to think that the level of competition in the Big XII conference is not as high as in other power conferences. Of course, my Sooners beat the sixth-ranked Oregon Ducks Thursday night in the Holiday Bowl, so maybe Texas' competition this year has been solid (or USC's has been equally weak.) In addition, OU was a pretty lousy football team for the first half of the season, and considering that OU has spoiled Texas' season for the past five years, I'm not sure Texas is any better than its been in the past few season - it just didn't have Oklahoma to keep it out of championship contention. I'll turn on comments so my UT reader can huff and puff below
