KSU - OU is more of a rivalry than anyone thinks. Stoops was the def coordinator for Snyder back in 96 or so and when he left, he took a lot of coaches with him. Snyder wasnt too happy about this and there was a lot of bad feelings between them. As the announcer said, there is prolly nobody that Snyder would've rather beat to win the big xii championship.
You really seem to concentrate on the one loss that OU has.
What about the wins that OU had?
1) 65-13 to a then top 5 and a now top 5 Texas. USC/LSU didnt come close to doing anything like this.
2) 52-9 Okie State. They were a top 20 team then and is one now.
Both are "rivalry" games.
OU had a margin of victory of 585 to 193. 8 teams out of the 13 they played had a .500 or better record.
Who does USC have credit of beating? #15 washington state? (Who will get SMOKED by Texas, who was SMOKED by OU).
LSU's big wins came against #16 Miss (a 3 pt win)
Georgia (7 pts and 21 pts).
