Goooo Pokes!!

"Rewind; remember cool autumn air walking to class and passing friends, exs, lovers and the rush you feel every time you go back; A lump in the throat, a bitter-sweet graduation in a cap and gown; A desire to stay forever. Although we are gone, we are still there." ~ "Why We Wear Orange"

In case you live under a rock and don't know, my COWBOYS beat the #1 ranked Kansas Jayhawks this weekend! GO POKES!

This is a huge win for us. Just a couple of weeks ago we were in a 4 game losing streak, and were listed as "one of the last four in" the tournament by ESPN. Since then we've beat Oklahoma, Baylor and now Kansas. The big dance is calling our name!

The game took me back to college.....my very first game in Gallagher Iba arena was Oklahoma State v. Kansas in 2004. It was Big Monday on ESPN. We were both ranked. Dick Vitale was calling the game. And we won by 20. There was never another game like that first one for me....although watching the students rush the floor today, sure came pretty close.

There's nothing like going to a school with such a proud tradition and such great fans. You get the chance to be a part of something bigger. And even though none of these players, nor the head coach, was there when I was there, I still feel like a part of this team.....that's just OSU for you!

Those of you still there, enjoy it. The time goes by too fast. Soon you'll be an alum watching on tv wishing you were there to rush that floor again!
