    @Ben_Jones88: I can confirm that Penn State quarterback Matt McGloin was knocked out after practice today during a fight. More to come.

    lol.... I was just going to come on here and post that. That douche probably deserved it.

    Bad start for OU ball slips out of qb's hand for a USU safety. USU driving but picked at the OU 5. Looks like a nice day in Boise.

    Typical OU after Dec. 1.

    Win the MAC East, then blow the MAC Championship and the bowl game (see 2006, 2009, no East title but blew bowl game in 2010)

    They are down 16-10 and are lucky to be down only that. Let's just say they look rusty.

    23-17 with 10 minutes left.

    Utah State is incredible at losing as time expires. Fully expect OU to score the winning TD here.

    LOL this ref is a retard. Our resident mouth breathers will appreciate the fact that it's an SEC crew.

    What a stupid play call by Solich. If you are going to run a QB sneak, do it under center not shot gun.

    It drives me fucking nuts. We take fucking victory formation knees from the pistol (and have almost fumbled them).

    it just irritates me how coaches try to get all fancy when they are at the 6 inch line. QB sneak right up the middle will work about every time.

    First bowl win ever for Ohio! 24-23.

    Nice day for the MAC, that's crazy OU had never won a bowl game.

    To be fair, had he lined up under center, the D would have known what was coming, putting him in shotgun might stretch the D a bit. IIRC, that would have been one of the few times(maybe only time) that TT lined up under center.

    They had only been in 4 bowl games ever prior to today (1968, 2006, 2009, 2010).

    2 wins for the MAC today basically matches their number of bowl victories in the past 3 years combined, sadly.

    Did they ever show when he did it? I am assuming it happened from head butting the players while they had their helmets on but I changed the channel right after he showed it and forgot to go back.

    Good day for the MAC for a change. First 10-win season for Ohio since 1968 I believe.

    Bobcats! 1st bowl win!
  • gerb131
    Congrats to OU they showed a good bit of heart last night. Tettelton played strong after some early troubles.

    Somebody tell Brady Hoke that Ohio won its bowl game!
