This game needs to be played. It needs to be played on Thanksgiving weekend.

We'll never know if Texas would have beaten us. Colt and his father decided playing the Bama D might expose him both as a QB and physically and decided not to play. Okie Light loses to Iowa state. This is not debateable. If they don't pull of this miracle we aren't in the NC game. I would love to see a NC trophy from that season in the athletic complex at ISU. We owe them big-time.

It was a miracle in part because of the tragedy within the Oklahoma State Athletic Dpeartment. And Colin Klein's concussion leading to K-State lose to a terrible Baylor team in 2012, otherwise the Purple Wizard dismantles Notre Dame. You owe the Big 12 for all of Saban's NC trophies at Alabama. Hell he had to play Big Game Bob for his title at LSU. Saban is nothing without the Big 12.

Honestly, do you really believe Colt was afraid? He left college football with the most wins by a QB at any level, he had the most accurate passing season in college football history, and he thumped a lot of talented defenses along the way.

Colt had run a ton in his career, but why the Texas OC chose that game, at that moment, to run an option, where the QB by design will take a hit, will always be a mystery.

Us too, that would have fricked up our shite if Okie State won a national title. I like keeping them in recruiting obscurity (despite nice facilities).

I will be honest TCU makes me nervous for that same reason. Someone needs to hire Patterson.
