Sooner Fans: Letter to the Editor (Toledo Blade)
Posted: Fri Sep 17, 2004 4:36 pm
Oklahoma in a league of its own
We have followed the BGSU Falcons for many years, including football games at Ohio State, Michigan, and Purdue. We have never experienced the kind of respect, kindness, generosity, and good sportsmanship in those places like we did on our recent trip to Oklahoma.
What we experienced was unbelievable, and it came from people everywhere - hotels, restaurants, airport, and at the stadium. The entire community epitomized the true meaning of friendly competition and sportsmanship.
Hopefully, the Mid-American Conference and the Big 10 can strive to treat opposing schools and their fans in a similar manner.
