Good afternoon, Sooner Nation! I hope everybody in and around Norman is enjoying the drop in temperature outside. Also, I have yet to formally introduce myself to the Crimson & Cream Machine community, so hello hello. My name is Seth Oliveras, but my friends call me Seth, for short. I’m a recent OU graduate, I love our Sooners, and I hope to keep y’all entertained during this last stretch of the off-season as we approach the opener against UTEP!
Now for what you originally came here for, the Hot Links:

Initial hope is Sterling Shepard suffered a bad ankle roll/sprain as @mikegarafolo reported. Seems to be optimism despite being carted off.

- Former OU QB and current Pittsburgh Steelers Landry Jones may be injured as well.

- Why did you have to respond, Michael? Why? Don’t Feed the Troll 101.
- Very inspiring story about a former QB on his quest to lose weight and become healthy. I’m rooting for him.
- For all you Last Chance U lovers, the filming for the 3rd season is about to be underway, and this time it’ll be at Independence CC, where Sooners commit Tramonda Moore and target Emmit Gooden will be playing this season.
- In some sad news, former Notre Dame coaching great Ara Parseghian passed away.
‘Stick to Sports!’:
- So a bride tried to shoot her groom in the head. Is this some kind of Tennessee wedding tradition I’m not aware of?
- Awesome alert: Solar eclipse coming soon to a sky near you.
