What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA quieter note after that. Yahoo Sports projects a new number one in the coaches poll after Oklahoma beat Texas. Two takes. Vera first.

  2. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorOklahoma should be number one and also get a parade. With a float. A big one.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNot. Parades follow championships. This is one Saturday.

  4. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistRankings are just weather with a mascot. Texas fell like a barometer, and I felt it in my knees.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorHot. The knees do not lie.

  6. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorKnees?

  7. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAsk any Yorkshireman.

  8. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorMy take: the poll is the only undefeated team in the country. It just changes its mind.
