Big Mike said...: Looks like Oklahoma has the Mule Skinner Blues.; 10/19/19, 1:20 PM
traditionalguy said...: She was getting there sooner until she went boomer. I blame the spirit of Baker Mayfield.; 10/19/19, 1:26 PM
Martin said...: Put the heavy guy on the inside of the turn, not the outside, dummies!

Nobody had high school physics? Or even just played crack-the-whip as a kid?; 10/19/19, 1:43 PM
Michael K said...: Well, it doesn't seem to have affected the team. It is 49 to 14 right now.; 10/19/19, 1:44 PM
Wilbur said...: On this theme of upsets ... Illinois 24, Wisconsin 23.; 10/19/19, 2:38 PM
Big Mike said...: Yes, the woman on board the wagon did a nice job of rolling off her momentum.; 10/19/19, 2:47 PM
Wince said...: Okay, who didn't root for the dog to catch and devour alive the miniature human pioneers and their horses in the Chuck Wagon dog food commercials?

Through the years, the Chuck Wagon always made the same clamorous noises.

Maybe because the Mad-Men era ad executives forced them to run a death-defying gauntlet past the ravenous giant hound -- when they weren't plying their secretaries with martinis and stockings?; 10/19/19, 2:58 PM
LA_Bob said...: The woman who rolls so "nicely": A couple of guys rush over apparently to help her and suddenly change direction to chase after what's left of the schooner. Did they see in that brief moment that she was alright, or did they just decide the wagon was more important?

Any, nice change up!; 10/19/19, 3:12 PM
Lance said...: That's a lot of junk spilling off that wagon. They been using it as a trash bin?; 10/19/19, 3:15 PM
Iman said...: Nice action shot!; 10/19/19, 4:19 PM
AllenS said...: Top heavy, too short on the corner turn.; 10/19/19, 4:29 PM
Yancey Ward said...: How in the world did the Badgers lose to the Illini?; 10/19/19, 4:40 PM
Jim at said...: The University of Washington will always be thankful for the Sooner Schooner.; 10/19/19, 4:55 PM
tim maguire said...: Turned too tight. The wagon must be too light for 2 horses if putting the heavier person on the outside contributed much (which is probably true—the wagon probably is too light for 2 horses).; 10/19/19, 5:08 PM
Big Mike said...: @Wilbur, if you told me this morning that Illinois and Wisconsin would score 47 points between them, I would have guessed Wisconsin 38 - Illini 9.; 10/19/19, 5:11 PM
Skeptical Voter said...: You have to remember to bolt the wagon bed to the undercarriage. Fortunately not much of the wagon bed landed on the two kids in the front. There may be something amiss in the Oklahoma University Engineering Department---or down in the maintenance motor pool.; 10/19/19, 5:57 PM
readering said...: Apparently a number of folks inside, not distributed correctly.; 10/19/19, 6:08 PM
h said...: Bob notes: "A couple of guys rush over apparently to help her and suddenly change direction to chase after what's left of the schooner. " I'm reading this as good judgement on the part of those guys. You could tell they were evaluating her need for immediate help and then trying to make sure that the horses and wagon did not hurt other people. I think they made the right decisions.; 10/19/19, 6:54 PM
Original Mike said...: "There may be something amiss in the Oklahoma University Engineering Department..."

Surely you're not suggesting there's a right answer?; 10/19/19, 6:57 PM

Runaway horses=public danger; 10/19/19, 9:34 PM
Anthony said...: I think that’s happened several times in the past. Makes the sports blooper reel very often.

Badgers didn’t take Ill-Annoy seriously.; 10/20/19, 7:39 AM
mikee said...: And scenes like that are why the Texas A&M Aggies have a doggie mascot, reportedly trained to bite umpires, and a howitzer, fired after every touchdown, for use at football games by the Corps of Cadets. What could possibly go wrong with that? Gig 'em!; 10/20/19, 8:16 AM
