Your mascot mishap for today

OK, so not mascot, technically. But ... well ...

Well, this little mishap. The Sooner Schooner goes Boomer, or something like that.

Fortunately no one was injured when the schooner driver (pilot? wrangler?) missed his line going into the corner, and, uh, over she went. Back end got loose, as they say in NASCAR.

This could have been taken as a bad omen for unbeaten, No. 5 Oklahoma, but it wasn't on account of the Sooners were only playing West Virginia, whom they disposed of the way they were supposed to, 52-14. Jalen Hurts did not tip over rolling out to pass, and no Sooners were otherwise harmed in the making of this rout.

So all was good, except for the poor schooner. But as one of my friends and former colleagues put it, "At least the horses are OK."

To make the most important point.
