well lets see he was an underdog in 2000 and beat FSU in the title game.... Beat texas 5 years in a row , this year beat the number 2 team in Texas Tech , did what no other big 12 team did and beat a ranked big 12 opponent on the road ( oklahoma state) So he lost to FLorida tonight cause they breaks didnt go their way and went FLorida's so now he cant coach big games?
Yes he made a bone headed move going for it on 4th so early.... But the int on the 1 yard line was a fluke int getting knocked in the air 4 or 5 times, and the 2nd OU int was pretty flukey too , like i said the Defender didnt know he had the ball til he got up and saw it in his hands.... thats a 10 -14 pt swing on just the 2 int's could have been a 13-21pt swing if we convert the 4th on a td of FG...
Sure he has lost what 4 or 5 straight BCS games.... Hey maybe this is a mantra for the losers but it look like he lost more title games than everyone else has gotten too.... He has to be doing some form of coaching to get his team there and has prob won some big games in the process. I m sure you agree that home field advantage means a lot , just like the Flames of a couple years ago won almost all of the games at home and coudnt win on the road. They played LSU in 03 or 04 ( i cant remember) in New Orleans, basically making it a home game for LSU and tonight they played FLorida 300ish miles from Gainsville and the florida fans outnumbered the OU fans by more than 3-1 so it was a road game.
