Why do I have the feeling that if that quote had been the other way around
and attributed to someone like Bill Callahan that people would be saying
'Right on, brother!!'?

BTW, people weren't laughing at CU when they pasted Nebraska a few years
back, and more than a few people were quite happy to see Nebraska's
consecutive winning season and bowl streaks end.  I suspect more than a
few people will be rooting for OU on Saturday, too, just because they're 
NOT NEBRASKA.
