It takes good fortune to be successful in college football. Most of that good fortune is due to the talent on the roster, but some of it can be related to the uncontrollable factors in a football game.
The Sooners might have played in the Big 12 title game if not for the injury to Danny Stutsman or the defensive pass interference that went uncalled against Drake Stoops against Oklahoma State. Sometimes, you’re just unlucky.
Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports identified a group of teams that are out of luck heading into 2024. Two of those teams are on the Sooners’ schedule...

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Ohio State football has seen a number of players transfer out and have success somewhere else, even in the NFL. Two come to mind immediately in Nick Goings who transferred to Pittsburgh and had great success in the NFL with the Carolina Panthers. Another one is Mike Furrey, who was a walk-on that transferred to Northern Iowa and also shined in the NFL playing on both offense and defense for multiple teams. Perhaps no one has been more successful than Joe Burrow, who left for LSU and won a national championship and Heisman Trophy. In my opinion, once you are...

I walk every day at Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Park Hill. A few days ago, I noticed for the first time what appeared to be exceptionally large hornets, or dragonflies, buzzing between the trees. These beasts can fly up and down or left and right and are extremely fast. They will whiz past your head as you walk past the trees they are buzzing around. They seems to be roosting in the pines.

A legislative working group on Tuesday drafted fortifications that tweak and clarify penalties regarding treatment of the state’s predators. The actions come in the aftermath of worldwide outrage over a Wyoming man who only received a citation after he ran down, muzzled and paraded a live wolf in a Daniel bar.

I believe this may be the earliest surviving structure of the Douglass School. The original school, with five classrooms, stood at this same intersection, but I’m not sure at which corner.

After weeks of anticipation, four-star linebacker Jonathan Cunningham committed on Friday. The Texas native chose the Longhorns over TCU and Utah. After missing out on a few top recruits recently, Texas had a reason to celebrate as their defense improved.
The Longhorns have added a talented player at a premium position in Cunningham. Rivals ranked him as the No. 56 player in the state and the No. 24 linebacker in the 2025 class. With Cunningham now in the fold, Texas has two linebackers in its 2025 class.
In his junior season for North Crowley, Cunningham recorded 38 tackles, including nine for a...
