West Virginia goes down to A&M

Has a bowl team appeared less prepared to play than OU? Goodness...why show?

Bowl games have wild swings...but the OU kids looked like they wanted to go home from the first play.

Wow OU looking like Austin Peay

Losing is one thing.
Losing badly is one thing.
The other team playing great is one thing.

Not trying after so many alums and fans spent a lot of money...is another.

Wow...OU. Owe it to your fans to you know, try, in the second half. Doubt Clemson will let up knowing they have tail Tuckers against them.

Maybe they rally and have a classic late bowl game comeback in a game that already over early...but looking like a movie night at this point.

Good news is we're not going to the Big 12 anytime soon in the next decade according to Big 10 Commis.

They are happy having their butts handed to them

Oklahoma has no interest in this game.

Also might not use the championship game waiver they're requesting.

“We expect it’ll take place in the next six months. … Honeslty, I don’t know that we would play a (championship) game if we got it changed. ... We could certainly take our two highest-rated and have them play each other again, but one of those teams would’ve won during the regular season. You have to question whether it’s fair to have one of those teams beat the same team again to get past them. I could capably argue either side of that.”

OU is in the same place Alabama was last year when these two played in a bowl game. Bama didn't care, and OU doesn't care tonight. It happens.

So what Bowslby is saying is that even if they get the waiver they might elect to leave 25 million on the table because "You have to question whether it’s fair"

WTF? This commissioner is a clown

Alabama played like they cared last year...they simply got beat. It happens.

This effort by OU is one of the worst I have ever, or at least had before switching to Shark Tank, seen. Ever.

Yes it is a bowl, and yes, sometimes a team may give a sub par effort, and maybe that is what an a Alabama did last year for example. But I am hard pressed to remember a worse A to Z performance...ever.

But yes...game one next year...for OU....all will be forgotten. Their alums in Orlando have to be pissed though.

Gotta agree, the Big 12 has been suck today. Hope KSU, TCU and Baylor pull out the wins. As I type this, UT is not doing so well.

Considering Bowlsby's quote that the Big 12 might not play a championship game even if they are allowed to with 10 teams --- how much revenue does existing P5 championship games generate? Anyone know off hand? Multiple that number by 10 and that's how much I DON'T believe Bowlsby.
