oh happy day...

it's going to be 85 degrees in dallas today. it's friday. and OU was just named the #1 team in the prestige rankings. nevermind all the talk, ESPN has spoken, and in turn, made me a very happy little girl.

1. Oklahoma Sooners
Total points: 1,968
Positives: When you look at the big picture of college football since 1936, no program has achieved greatness as consistently as Oklahoma. We didn't even count the fact that Oklahoma owns the longest win streak in FBS history (47) or leads the nation with a .765 winning percentage since World War II. The 1956 Oklahoma team catapulted the Sooners past Notre Dame to the top of the Prestige Rankings, and it's been in the top spot ever since. OU's seven national titles have spanned four decades. The Sooners have finished in the final poll's top 5 an astounding 29 times. But the real fuel for OU's rise to the top of our rankings has been its conference dominance. The Sooners finished the regular season with at least a share of their conference's best record a stunning 39 times, seven more than any other program in the country.

today is a good day. or as my friend, jay said, "It's official, all is forgiven and I'm ready for August. Bring on the Mormons*."

BOOMER SOONER!

*(for those of you that may not know, we play byu the first game of the season at the new stadium in arlington).
