grrrr.... :brad:

Not to beat a dead mule, but if there had been instant replay in 1998, the call ruling Gonzo out of bounds in the back of the endzone would've been over-ruled and ol' horseface woulda' never been in position to win his first SB.

At least that's the way I choose to remember it.

horseface, heh.

Just to go on record...

"MiketheangrydrunkenCUfan" is no doubt the best nic ever devised by mortal men.

It doesn't hurt that his takes don't suck, but still... he gets a free pass for life for that nic.

actually, losing to Miami wasn't ever tough. they were good. and you knew it. plus, they had that whole "forward pass" thing going (which was mysterious for OU fan inna day).

i'll go with Tisdale and the Sooners losing to Memphis State and Keith Lee in the Elite 8, 1985. or 2002 OU losing to Indiana in the Final Four.....when OU had wins over both Kansas and Maryland on the other side of the FF.

2002 Indiana in basketball is the toughest loss for me. If Quannas White doesn't get injured in practice the week of the Final Four I am still convinced we win the title walking away. Nobody to distribute the ball to Ace and Selvy in the in lane and Indiana only had to lock onto Hollis and Ebi on the perimeter and it was game over. Jabahri was a defensive juggernaught the last half of that season. OU hadn't lost a game since the beginning of February and that was a road game in overtime against a 12th ranked Oklahoma State squad. Missouri was the only team who had even put up a fight on us and stayed within double digits in the tourney and even that game wasn't as close as the 8 point margin showed. Maryland got ran off the mother fuckin' court by the Sooners in December. Quannas was the best PG Oklahoma ever had at distributing the ball (yes I even count him above Ricky Grace) and was a true leader and floor general. :(

1988 Oklahoma vs. Kansas in basketball. Mookie hit that mother effin 3 pointer at the end of the first half; let go of the ball with almost a full second on the clock. Under todays rules that play is reviewed and we go to the half with the lead.

1986 vs Miami in Miami in football. Everyone always remembers the Orange Bowl losses to Miami but if we only would have wrapped Vinny Testicles up in this regular season game we go undefeated and win the National title. How many times do you need to hit a QB in the backfield and he bounce off and toss a 13 yarder down field before you learn to JUST FUCKING WRAP HIM UP!

Good lord that was a beautiful day to be in Norman! My ex-wife and I had copious amounts of drunken celebration sex that evening!

And he's also a great guy. I don't think I've mentioned this on the board, but Mike sent me a PM back in December asking if I'd like an Insight Bowl T-shirt and, when I said I would, he mailed one to me for no charge. It's now autographed by a number of players, including the MVP of the game, and is framed and hanging in my basement. Thanks again, Mike.

Mace,

Not that my Aggies have had much success in the past decade+ (especially in bowls), but framing a t-shirt from the insight.com bowl for a 5 loss team? That’s a shirt that should be worn to cut the grass not hanging on a wall, autographs or not…

It's my son's collection of autographs hanging on the wall, Indy, and since he's a student at Iowa, I don't blame him. They're his college days and memories, not mine. The only autograph he's collected in the last three years that I treasure is Ed Podolak's, and he probably didn't win 5 games in his three years of varsity football at Iowa. Five losses or not, he's got some current and future NFL player's autographed pictures and T's hanging on the wall.....Clayborne, Stanzi, Dallas Clark, Pat Angerer, Chad Greenway, Shonn Greene, and enough others to cover a wall in my basement.

IMO, if you're a true fan, you don't care if they lost five games or went undefeated and won a national title. In fact, I'd prefer having a Marcus Coker autograph to Cam Newton's hanging in my house.

When you said that it was hanging on the wall in the basement, I assumed it was in a social area like a bar or pool table area. I didn't take that to be your son's room. Makes a little more sense...I guess.

88, where does the home loss in '98 to MSU rank on your list? If I so much as reference that game around OSU fans they get pissed. OSU was on a clear path for the MNC and had no business losing to a .500 MSU team at home. Not just losing the game, but the way they lost had to be devastating, especially since they went on to crush Iowa and Michigan.

MGO...that 98 loss takes all 3 spots for me...up 24 to 9...that team would have STEAM ROLLED anyone in the Natty...

fuck that shit...fuck MSU, FUCK NICK SABAN...fuck...yeah it haunts me to this day...FUCK

88...I see what you are saying...but when you think of the collective talent on that team...they would have steam rolled Tennessee, FSU, whomever...that year surely was a case of who loses early, oh and Tennessee getting that gift from Clint Stoerner...
