The next time you read about a BCS team pouting and refusing to step on to the campus of a gritty, young mid-major squad, you need look no further last night's Oklahoma-VCU game as to why.

Jeff Capel returned to his old home last night, and was slapped in the face by the Rams, who led from start to finish in an 82-69 win over the Sooners. Yeah it was buried on a Saturday night, behind college football's rivalry week, but a loss is a loss and don't think we aren't catching this on the ticker.

Willie Warren cramped up, Larry Sanders chipped in with 17 and students stormed the court, topping off quite the embarrasing day for those Boomer Sooners
