No matter the outcome of the OU-Bama game; it helps the Sooners with recruits when you make trips to the Final Four. Everybody can't play for Alabama & Clemson; so that helps Oklahoma who owns the Big 12. Texas A & M, Missouri, Nebraska & Colorado left the Big 12 for the SEC, Big 10 & Pac 12 conferences; let us not kid ourselves--any of those teams make the Final Four yet.

We don't need to get in a 'black & blue' conference where teams beat up one another in a year long battle that's sure to take its toll come conference and final four appearances.

Continue to recruit Texas, California, Florida & Pennsylvania where the biscuits, gravy & collard green recruits resign.
