1) Oklahoma State University, located in Stillwater, Oklahoma with branches in Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Okmulgee. Its official colors are orange and black, as opposed to colors picked by OU matching the blood on their white away-game uniforms. OU fans would resent this.
2) School that jealous OU people and OU fans hate for its superior academics and 43 national championships.
I went to OU instead of OSU because it was cheaper, there is no other logical reason.

I wish I had went to OSU because the dorms at OU are shit.
