    Oh man. That sounds way out of my range. I want to be at the game, but where I sit isn't as important. :eek:

    According to the hub of stubs, these are about 200 a pop.

    Probably too rich for CF blood.

    Minus bigtexxx of course.

    Maybe he wants to come root for OU?

    24 hours from now. All they will be talking about is how much of a beast Ed is.

    He is incredible. I focused on him for several plays..
    1) shoved down a guy that's probably about 350 down like he was a plush toy
    2) lifted a guy that's again, about 350 towards mayfield along for the ride.
    3) ran from one side of the field to the other to sack mayfield

    I can't wait to see him in the middle of the season...your first game since high school you play a big school like OU and you're dominating these big fellas?

    In his first college game, he had 5 solo tackles, including 2 sacks against a major program.

    How often does a DT do that, ever?

    OU was forced to send double teams his way. That's ridiculous. Oliver is the real deal.

    And how does this 18 year old who just ascended to national prominence handle all the hype?
