Well, all those wins, enough to have the 2nd most in the conference, sure. Cool. nice red herring, fun to be able to stand up in the shallow end of the pool. Still, less conference titles than the team 4th on that list. Same number of titles as #3 and #6. Right on. But all those wins didnt do squat for them when it mattered most. Just like how OU has completely dominated the conference for the past decade, winning 5 straight conference titles didnt help much because they are clearly not close to where they really need to be. 73-16 conference record is just a red herring. And all those wins haven't done a whole lot for osu except for trash talking fans of the listed teams who won less osu's 58. If OU, who is completely dominating the big 12 right now, isnt ready to win it all, imagine all the scrub teams below them and where they stand on the national stage.
No one team is consistently getting close to winning the conference outside OU. Everyone takes turns.
OU is super close to putting in 12 rounds with the upper crust elite. There’s only like three of them. Bama, Clemson, Ohio State. If LSU retains Joe Brady, they may join the party. They have the defensive depth. That’s something OU is still developing going into Grinch’s second season. With constant attrition, it’s difficult to stay at that high of an echelon of performance year after year.

I didn’t even really hate OU that much until the Dirty Game.
They call us little bro, but then have a slampiece when we’re rolling, playing for 2 big 12 titles in three years and winnin one because they can’t stand not being the favorite child of the state. Now that’s more little brother, chicken****, insecurity than anything I’ve ever seen from OSU. Gotta lie to keep OSU down

I mean you can call it sniffing territory if you want, but it doesnt mean they were close. Alabama was #2 last year but they werent even close to #1 Clemson. Like osu , 58-31 against the big 12 in the last decade. But 2-8 against the #1 team and 0 for the last 5. How close are they really?
The other big 12 teams would get worked much worse. OU has squeaked by in some games, but their dominance of the conference is a two decade long event, so yes there will be close games.

Actually they won the last 5 straight conference championships, they are in better form than they were two decades ago. Two decades ago, they were just coming off their first winning season in years.
Riley's 24-3 big 12 record speaks for itself. He owns the conference, but that's not a discussion an osu fan would want to have. And it doesnt matter much, they have bigger things to worry about winning. Very exciting.
