Would love to be 38-0 at the half in Still Water. One of the worse games and worse feelings as a husker fan watching my team down 38-0 at home at the half. Not only so, I think it was homecoming or some other event where we had invited back many alumni including T.O. Definately one of the memories I wish I could forget.

I don't think that score is likely without a few defensive touchdowns, but given that OSU is going to a Texas Tech style of offense and our defense is made to shut down the pass, I could see something like that. It also helps that Mike Gundy is no Mike Leach and OSU doesn't have as talented quarterbacks or wide receivers as Tech does.

I cringed a little when I read that :facepalm:

We were celebrating the anniversary of our 1997 national championship. The whole 97 team and staff was there for that game. I normally hold players accountable for not making plays and not winning games, but during the Callahan era we were so poorly coached that I find it very hard to be critical of the players on those particular teams. I felt so badly for the guys that day. How embarassing was that? I was embarassed and I didnt even play. It was after this game that Callahan and his staff erased all doubt from my mind of what needed to happen.

I had a few doubts before this game. But this game erased them from my mind.

I was still in high school when the OSU debacle in Lincoln. I live in Oklahoma, so all of my OSU friends were mouthing off prior to the game and I had a few bets going on. I was at an academic team tournament during the game and had a friend texting me the score. I thought he was joking with me for the longest time until I got to a TV and saw the score on the bottom line. I got the sickest feeling in my stomach, like when we lost to Mizzou and nearly lost to Ball State in 07.
