2. You can see Mike Gundy’s antics

Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy is known by many college fans for many reasons, mainly his sideline antics and sharp quips.

We can all rehearse the “I’m a man, I’m 40” rant, but this is old news around Stillwater. Gundy’s latest includes an even longer, flowing mane attached to the back of his head in addition to dry, sneering comments about today’s society and funny dealings with the media.

Gundy, who has compiled a 120-59 record as head man at OSU in 14 seasons, is one of the most beloved football coaches in school history. Critics have pointed to his ice-cold calm demeanor on the sidelines this season, alleging that he brings the team to play to its opponent’s level on many occasions. Gundy has also courted offers from other schools in past offseasons such as Tennessee and Arkansas, ostensibly for a raise at his alma mater.

Either way, the Liberty Bowl is a chance to see Gundy patrolling the sidelines and an opportunity to hear another classic Gundy-ism when the interview cameras roll around. Don’t miss out.
