32 Things I Would Rather Do Than Lose To OU
NewsOK

Oh, college football. No football team (or anybody else at the university) likes to lose, but that fear of losing is multiplied when it is somebody you have a rivalry with. In 1917, the word "Bedlam" was first used to describe the rivalry between Oklahoma State University and University of Oklahoma. The word was then put on the back burner until 1943 when it was revitalized in another newspaper.

Bedlam 2015 put the Sooners ahead 85-18-7. In 2012, the first Bedlam game that resulted in overtime occurred, with OU beating OSU 51-48. This rivalry has been a prominent one for many years, and students/fans from both schools have strongly supported their school through it all.

As a student of Oklahoma State University and a long-time Cowboy football fan, I hate to see OSU lose. Here are 11 things that I would rather do than lose to OU.

1. Re-live 7th grade

2. Fall down the front stairs of Morrill in front of 1,000 people

3. Swim in Theta pond

4. Get back with my ex

5. Run a marathon with no training

6. Fail every single one of my finals

7. Get a championship 70 years late

8. Get knocked over by a long boarder

9. Stand in the middle of Kansas with a lightning rod in the middle of spring

10. Show my family my grades

11. Give up coffee

12. Swim with sharks while bleeding

13. Get braces for 10 years

14. Get charged for printing in the library

15. Have all 8 am lectures for the rest of my life

16. Sleep through all of my finals

17. Get rejected by my crush in front of both of our friends

18. Step on a lego

19. Step on 50 legos

20. Lose my keys

21. Get a(nother) parking ticket

22. Live in the Insidious house

23. Like my crushes picture from 88 weeks ago

24. Never watch Netflix again

25. Shave off my eyebrows

26. Lock my keys in my car at 2am

27. Take Organic Chemistry 4 times

28. Not study for any of my finals

29. Not study for anything

30. Take cold showers for the rest of my life

31. Attempt to survive "Naked and Afraid" in Antarctica

32. Read my history text book for fun

There are many things that I would rather do than lose to OU at Bedlam. Go Pokes, y,all.

Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
