After tonight, do not be suprised if this coach that is coaching ends up getting the head coach position. He should just get an award for best team comeback.

This is his team and his offense still........it didn't happen just because it's WVA.

That being said, they are dealing with it well on the field.

For themselves and their school.

I think the SEC has been knocked down a peg big time by yesterday’s results. OU is in the same position as Floriduh was last year, highly motivated and better than advertised. Just ask Tennessee and Floriduh about how “slow” the big ten is........

Correct. In John Cooper's first season, too.

I’m not watching, I am not in good health and I put SoreLoserMan to shame when it comes to OU.

At least I did tell everyone a month ago that we don’t do well in post-season. Oh, and half our D didn’t even suit up, but that’s neither here nor there.

AD (Peterson) is doing well in the NFL, tho!

I was at the first 1985 game on that link. The first night game ever played at Ohio Stadium.

Peterson is going to have a prolific NFL career. Amazing he 2nd in the league in rushing only behind Ladanian Tomlinson.

I still can’t believe John Cooper was hired at OSU almost 20 years ago. Time flies...

Yeah the SEC got knocked WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DOWN Yesterday....

I hate to break up the Big East Love Fest/SEC Hate fest, HOWEVER ... the SEC is 6-2 in Bowl games, this game will make the Big East .500 (2-2) --- OF course that is better than the Big-10 and ACC, who both have losing records.

Also, Oklahoma has not exactly been spectacular in Bowl games under stoops -- this will be 4 losses in thier last 5 bowl games. Including losing to the WAC champion last year - the same WAC whose UNDEFEATED champion was absolutely Stomped last night by one of the HORRIBLE SEC teams.

Yep, the SEC had gotten a BIG WAKEUP CALL yesterday when two teams in their conference that should not have gone down, went down bigtime to teams that the SEC had considered to be too slow themselves became bigtime suprisers. Wonder how LSU is thinking when it comes to OSU going for redemption and taking down another SEC team.

Yeah they beat absolutely nobody except Wisconsin (wasn't Tennessee # 2 SEC and Wisconsin #4 Big Ten?) that went to the last play, which the convicts were allowed all sorts of cheap shots in, plus the SEC won all their overmatched games.

What a great conference huh?

The most recent touchdown, which gaved the 41 points is the dagger touchdown.

Agreed. Although having seen Boise State play in person last season, Florida would probably have been the one that would have beaten them decisively. You could also make a very solid case for USC doing the same last year.

OH yeah --- FOUR LOSS ARKANSAS without thier coach or coaching staff should have beaten a team that was ranked NUMBER ONE a few weeks ago and has only one loss. What are you smoking?????

Michigan had everything going for them against Florida -- they were playing thier hearts out for a BELOVED COACH in his final game. Michigan would have beaten or at least played to a stand still ANY TEAM in the nation yesterday.

That and I’ll never figure out how UGA ended up losing to Tennessee this year. Complete mystery even to me.

Oh please...Tennessee was the 4th best SEC team and you know it.

GOod to see Purdue really represent the powerful Little 10 so fantastically against a MIGHTY MAC team.
