NAAAAAAAHHH!!!

And wait until we hoist the big one!

Oklahoma State has a proud tradition in "minor" sports... 34 national championships (and counting) in wrestling (OSU is The Wrestling U), 10 national championships in golf, 1 national championship in baseball (and should have been another if not for Georgia) including a record 8 straight trips to the CWS and 17 straight conference championships, 2 national championships in basketball. Football success is the one thing that has eluded the Cowpokes. Being in the same state with the dirt burglars has hurt. Financial and fan support has always been poor. Facilities were the worst in the Big 12, but that is changing rapidly. I say all that to say this... and I said this last summer... Georgia is what Oklahoma State aspires to be. Excellence in all sports across the board, and especially including football.

I truly believe with all my heart that Mark Richt is going to hold up the Crystal Football. Maybe this year. Athens is TitleTown USA.

RxCowboy -

What you reminded me of and what I should have said in my initial post is that we better hoist the Commissioner's Cup this year. We are the best athletic program in the SEC and I love taking that trophy away from the stinking lizards down in Gainesville.

I always thought Iowa was wrestling U.
A couple of my buddies were wrestlers in high school and all they talked about was the Iowa program.

Oh, and let's add 2008 NCAA Tennis Champions to that list....

And by the way, here are the totals:

35 team National Championships

28 NCAA-recognized team National Championships (NCAA does not recognize ANY football national championships and five of our men's/women's NCs were ITA indoor rather than NCAA outdoor championships)

165 total NCAA recognized team and individual National Championships, beginning with Spec Towns' 1936 performance on the 120-m high hurdles and ending (for now, at least) with the 2008 Tennis Dogs' National Championship in Tulsa.

Athens = Titletown USA. Tell HYPESPN to go straight to Hell!!!
