Oklahoma has a prominent linebacker on its team who is unafraid to rattle opponents and speak his mind. Does that sound familiar?
No, Eric Striker is not related to Brian Bosworth, but he has a few similar characteristics.
The senior linebacker was asked after practice Tuesday about Oklahoma’s upcoming game at Tennessee on Saturday. Specifically he was asked whether he gets “jacked up” to play against an SEC school, given that he’s played so well in his school’s last two meetings against teams from that conference. He delivered a great quote in response.
“I don’t know why people blow gas up their a– all the time,” Striker said via The Oklahoman.
