Yeah, the coaching wasn't the best, and Bo has made some mistakes that
he needs to learn to avoid as a head coach (like Fitz is doing), but OU's 
coaching moves were a bit strange at time, too, they just didn't turn 
the ball over FOUR times, including once by Burkhead, as I recall.  

I know there are folks in Nebraska would would like to see Nebraska dump
its OC, but 10-3 (with one game to go) is still better than what most of 
the experts were predicting for Nebraska in August, and better than
anything they got during the Callahan fiasco.
