Didn't Hicks try to improvise on that play?

Had that staff actually RECRUITED a scholarship worthy kicker , the results might have been different, regardless of where Hicks ran with the ball.

1.) @Kansas 21-24 OT (2005) - B12 championship game birth, blew a huge lead, ref's
2.) Missouri 14-17 OT (2004) - B12 championship game birth, laid an egg
3.) Florida State 31-38 (2002) - Seneca was in!
4.) Alabama 13-14 (2001) - Wide right!
5.) Nebraska 30-31 OT (2010) - Chance for B12 championship birth, last chance to beat nebby in a while, etc.

I hope you mean berth. Hopefully there aren't any births on the football field. :jimlad:

The '81 OU game was crushing. I just remember everyone hugging Giffords. They probably checked on him hourly that night.

OU 2002, not because it was close by any stretch, but it crushed a dream of being one of the big boys, ranked #9 at the time

Last year's game against KSU at Arrowhead.

The OT game at Nebraska in 2005ish (where we dropped the INT)

OU in 1981 still hurts.

These would probably be my top 5:
1. KU 2005
2. MU 2004
3. Mich State MBB
4. Nebbie 2010
5. UCLA MBB

I definitely put the Kansas/Mizzou losses 1 and 2 because we had a guaranteed Big12 title game in front of us had we took care of business and beat two inferior opponents. Those 2 games were catastrophic for me mentally. Especially Kansas because we had a chance to redeem ourselves the following year after the Missouri debacle, we were up in the game, and blew it. I remember I had to go to a family Thanksgiving immediately after the KU game and my wife's cousin, who is a huge Hawk fan, told me it was the greatest day of his life. A week later his father died unexpectedly. Karma's a bi+ch, I guess.

I just gotta say this because its been eating at me for some time now.

No one pays attention to anything you say.

It isn't your fault.

It's hers:

This last game was nothing compared to Florida State and Alabama. It makes it a lot worse when you have to drive or fly as long way home after one of these losses.
