After nine nights and eight days in New England, a 32-hour round trip to Fort Worth for the OU-TCU game seemed on the puny side. But trips to Fort Worth always are fun, even though they’re quick, and this was a memorable time for many reasons.

1. Driving through the Arbuckles on Friday afternoon, I got the strangest sensation. As in, what’s wrong with this place?
Usually when I drive through the small mountain range, I get a sense of pride. I’m a child of the prairie, born and raised in central Oklahoma, so I always have gotten a charge out of seeing the other elevations of the state.
