How I miss Oklahoma teams like this. Particularly on defense when they were so physical. Josh Heupel, the best OU quarterback of them all by far and didn't win the Heisman. How rigged.
This was my favorite game to watch... I thought beating Fexas in that way was great, but this win in Bill Snyder's house made me believe this team was great!!!! The best play that game was that slip screen to Curtis Fagan for his first TD of the season!! But OU's defense was amazing the entire year. I love watching OU 2000 just for that. Imagine having Brent Venables and Mike Stoops as D Coordinators and all that talent!
This was the day I remember it all changed. The day we realized the Texas game wasn’t just a fluke… The Nebraska game was after this… Texas A&M and OSU nearly defeated OU later that year.
People don’t understand how good KSU was that year . I personally felt like if they was in another conference we would have played them in the nc game … KSU prob second best team in the nation that year .
Watching OU games for Bob Stoops. I wish him as good of a time in the rest of his life as he had at OU. His retirement announcement just plain shocked me, but I guess when your passion for life exceeds that of football, it's time to leave and that's what I got from what he said.
With all this COVID I think I’ve watched every one of these old games - weird how hard it is to watch the 80’s games with all that running- already acclimated to the throw it around game..oh n thanks the for the eight is enough blurb around 2:00 mark- lol - have enjoyed it
killcasualfan killcasualfan if you think that's ridiculous what do you think of the upcoming Big 12 championship game? The reason they played it when there were 12 teams is because you had the possibility of 2 teams going undefeated in the conference because they didn't play each team. Now it will be pointless. Just imagine if the 1st place team goes undefeated in conference play and the 2nd place team has 2 or 3 conference losses.
Listen to one of the commentator's "Oh no!" at 1:34:32. I remember this being the year I woke up to the fact that the sports media didn't like the Sooners and would usually go against them. But man, was that season absolutely magical!
I was there too TheBlackScyth, sitting in the student section of K-state as my nephew went there and got me the ticket. You bet I had my OU gear on and you are right, they were rockin!!!!
