The #3 Texas Longhorns never gave up. Despite giving up a touchdown to #10 Ohio State with less than 3 minutes to go in the game, the Big 12 South squad from Austin kept their composure, marched down field and scored with 17 seconds to go to defeat the Buckeyes in a squeaker in the [...]

Mountaineers Lead Sooners 34-15 After Three
January 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment
Trailing 20-6, the Oklahoma Sooners came out of the locker room as if they had something to prove, putting up nine quick points against the West Virginia Mountaineers. Seemingly unfazed, the Mountaineers answered with back-to-back touchdown drives and things started to look bleak for the boys from Norman. On the ensuing drive, quarterback Sam Bradford [...]
