OSU is drastically undermanned at every position on the field. Either of us could coach LSU to victory over OSU.

The talent deficit isn't any worse than it was when they played and beat Miami in 2002.

Uh, that official was standing about 15 feet from Dingle and blatantly refrained from pulling out his flag.

That shouldn't matter. Live ball as soon as he muffs it. Then Oklahoma recovered in the endzone, and ran it out the back. Safety. 8 point turnaround. If OU wins by less than that, the refs just ruined the game.

Wrong. If the WV guy forces the ball into the end zone, which he did, then at that point an OU touch makes it a touchback. If WVU had never touched the ball, then you'd be spot on.

just checked the NCAA rules:

ARTICLE 1. It is a touchback when:
a. The ball becomes dead out of bounds behind a goal line, except from an incompleted forward pass, or becomes dead in the possession of a player on, above or behind his own goal line and the attacking team is responsible for the ball being there

On second thought, the onside kick call was stupid. Down by 5 with 20 minutes left to play and the second half has been going all your way. No need in it.

I've got to see where this is stated in the rulebook... so let's say the offense fumbles at the 5, the defense knocks it into the endzone trying to recover it, the offense recovers and runs out of the back of the endzone, so they get a touchback?!?!

It was actually the correct call, possesion was never established in the field of play.

Wow, so if you interpreted "responsible for" in the same way they did in this game, the scenario I just posted would be the proper call. :eek:hmy:

That's a horrible rule. Seriously.

Again, doesn't matter. When the ball just hits a guy on the receiving team it becomes a live ball. Possession isn't established, but the kicking team can recover.

Well things were turning around till that onside kick Mr. Stoops.

Very true. Looks like what I think is a stupid rule (I concede that it was called as indicated in the playbook) didn't really hurt WVU like it may have.
