Published November 22, 2006 12:01 am - Horning: Is Stoops feeling the Bedlam? Commentary By Clay Horning The Norman Transcript No doubt about it.It’s Bedlam.Really. Listen to this.
“Big week,” Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said. “The last regular season game. Excited again,” said Bob Stoops. Just listen to these guys go. “We want to be eligible for postseason play, we want to win the South and we want to beat OU,” Gundy said. “I don’t think there’s any secret in that.” “It’s just another rivalry,” Stoops said. You can almost hear the blood boiling. Which of course is a big lie. Bedlam Schmedlam. Not that a fan here or there won’t trade a punch or two Saturday afternoon at Boone Pickens Stadium. It’s still Bedlam to them. But Bob Stoops and Mike Gundy have taken the gloves off and not because bare knuckles deliver a harsher blow. Gundy is just downright playing nice. “Am I a bold comment guy?” he said Monday. “You’re wanting some good dirt, aren’t you? Doesn’t Bob have his media day tomorrow? He’ll give you some dirt, won’t he? Well, only if you look really, really, really deep. Asked about the possibility the Pokes might have priced themselves out of a Saturday sellout, Stoops reserved comment on the wisdom of Oklahoma State’s ticket prices, but added his desire Sooner fans gobble up any remaining seats. Asked about Gundy’s comments that Sooner running backs have overcome their coaching to perform so well this season, Stoops even played along, saying, “I agree with him,” getting his own jab in at Mike’s younger brother, Cale, who coaches the Sooner backs.
