The Oklahoman featured an article on April 5, 2009 that discussed the University of Texas and their apparent Big 12 victory in 2008. Of course, the actual victory was awarded to the University of Oklahoma, who beat both Texas and Texas Tech for a spot in the Big 12 Championship. However, UT still claims that since they beat OU in a head-to-head game, they should have deserved to win the Big 12, despite their loss to Texas Tech. UT even added the year 2008 to their list of Big 12 Championships that is displayed on their training facility.

It is amazing to me that Texas still refuses to drop this issue. Yes, I believe that the three way tie between OU, UT and Tech was a difficult and abnormal situation, but I think that claiming the year 2008 as a championship is going too far. I personally believe that UT should accept the situation for what it was. They lost much later in the season, which ended up putting OU in a better situation. You have to face the reality that OU won the Big 12. Boomer Sooner!
