Man, Oklahoma plays hard. They went to war with Missouri on Friday night, somehow won, then just a few hours later on Saturday they went to war with Kansas, and somehow won again. Just watching those kids clash and fight, well, you could feel your own bones ache, your own heart pound through your chest.
Every coach talks about playing hard.
Every single coach in every single sport gives pretty much the same speech about teamwork and determination and wanting it a little more than the other guy. Every coach tells the players that the name on the front of the jersey is more important than the name on the back. And the name on the back is in small letters. Yeah, we know, every coach says something like that. Yeah, we know, every coach says something like that too.
