Winning is fun, losing isn’t. That’s a pretty easy notion to reconcile, especially in sports. When things are going your way, it’s easy to flip your mullet back, chomp on a smoothie straw and crack jokes during a press conference. When you’re losing, things are much less jovial.
“No smoothie tonight. Just water when you get your ass kicked,” Gundy said in a slightly self-deprecating manner after his team was embarrassed 41-17 by Texas Tech.
I’ve seen several comparisons made between this current OSU season and that mostly forgettable 2014 campaign since the loss Saturday night, and I’ve seen even more similarities between the two off the field of late.
