With all that said, it is the rule so it isn't any knock on OU. However, it would be very interesting to see the human votes over the past two weeks revealed to see how much changed with the vested interests at stake.

Based on what I've heard the rule will be changed after this year.

Yeah it most likely will. And next year, OU will beat Texas, lose to Texas Tech, end up in a three way tie, and beat out Texas and Tech for the Championship, just because that's how things go.

But yeah, OU didn't do anything wrong (if you look at the Horn Fan websites they did) But they had nothing to do with the outcome or the votes. Bob Stoops gave up his Coaches Voting chance. Mack Brown (Tx Coach) had his coaches up late sat, early sunday sending out Emails to try and sway the vote which I don't agree with, I also don't agree that he agreed to call during the game (OU-OSU) and do an interview nor do I agree with their silly Banner. But whatever

On a side note Bob Stoops was also asked to call in during the Texas-A&M game and refused.
