Let the OSU-Georgia trash talk begin

By Scott Wright

There’s a story on Rivals.com in which college football writer Olin Buchanan lists teams he believes might be overrated going into 2009 and some that might be underrated.

He lists Oklahoma State first on possibly overrated teams, and ironically, he has Georgia, the Cowboys’ first opponent on Sept. 5, as the first team in the possibly underrated section.

But more interestingly, here’s what a Georgia blogger with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution says about the situation. Cowboy fans looking for extra motivation for facing the Dawgs should be sure to read the comment section.

I'm with Bill and the SEC's Power! I'm a Gator fan as well and would love to see OSU win, but I think you got a whole world of hurting coming. I still expect a good game whether they shake hands or not. and P.S. Mike... You'll respect Tebow too when you see the Gators kick it this year with him at the helm. Mark MY words!

Look at it this way, UGA wins just another win, OSU wins its tear down goal post. Yes UGA will be in a bowl game this year, just which one. OSU ?

After looking at the 2 conference's history, I notice that the Sooners own the Big 12 conference. That said, I need to retract from what I said in my last post. Oklahoma has a very good program in a decent conference. Here's a list of national championships in the Big 12: Oklahoma..7 Nebraska..5 Texas.....4 Texas A&M.1 Colorada..1 Arkansas..1 (present, SEC) Total....19 Here is a list of National Championships in the SEC: Alabama....12 Tennessee...6 Florida.....3 LSU.........3 Ole Miss....3 Georgia.....2 Auburn......1 Kentucky....1 Total......31 Both conference are very good, but the SEC is stronger.

John Helsley grew up in Del City, reading all the newspapers and sports magazines he could get his hands on. And Saturday afternoons, when the Major League Game of the Week was on, he'd keep a scorecard for the game. So the sports appeal was was deep-rooted at an early age.

Mrs. Jackson, an English/Journalism teacher at Del City High, plucked him for the school paper, The Eagle Beacon, and John was hooked. While he detoured through a brief accounting career, John returned to college (Central Oklahoma) for a second degree and a second career that has seen him cover everything from the preps to the pros at The Oklahoman.

John lives in Edmond with his wife Roberta and two daughters, Sarah and Jillian, who are keeping the family tradition of cheering for the baseball team with the birds on the bat.
