Im 22 This is the biggest win I’ve ever seen in my life.

I'm 43. This is the biggest win I've ever seen in my life. Who got next?

Edit: I see a couple of you already beat me on this by a fair margin. Well done !

Man, I still remember my first Big XII game in 2003. Being in the band, we had to stand the whole game for a brutal 7-53 loss. Every time they scored--which was virtually every drive--the clock would stop and it was torture.

So proud to finally see a win in this series. It's been a brutal 14 years.

I had this same thought as well since that was my first game and being in the band as well. That season was A LOT of just kindof standing there in the old south end zone being disappointed and tortured.

Numerous excellent plays and standout individual performances.

Additional fun details.
1. OU ran 2 gadget-plays in first half, at a point when (to that point) Sooners offense was having its way for the most part. Question: Why?
2. ISU forced OU punt at end of first half ... and announcers (plus, many fans, including me) assumed Iowa State would take a knee, thenwe saw play-fake and deep pass to get into FG range (and also with time enough to attempt to score a TD). We've been on the opposite end of that situation so many times.
3. Oklahoma had some foot-shooting penalties along the way.
4. Clock-draining TD drive, after allowing OU's quick score to tie the game.

I'm stoked about this win for a multitude of reasons: Lanning, for his draft stock, Manning, for the unneeded redemption, and myself, selfishly. I hope this serves as motivation for Park, regardless of his situation.

3 penalties for 17 yards and 0 turnovers. That will win a lot of ballgames.

Yep. Also they stuck with the run game too. It helps to have Lanning for that.

A Texas fan on Reddit claims to have donated a gift to the ISU Foundation in memory of Baker Mayfield's Heisman Hopes.

I didn't get to see the game, but this is outstanding!

I thought the Sooners kind of panicked a little and started grabbing guys on defense. The personal foul for throwing punches is pretty automatic. The piling on one was the funniest, because the guy took a leaping jump onto a pile of Sooners.

I really only thought there was one pretty questionable PI call that ISU got. The rest were the Sooners just assuming they wouldn't get called. Still stunned that OU didn't get called for holding once in that game with all the running back and forth Mayfield did.

There is also video of an OU player slamming Lannings head into the ground a few times.

Yeah, that was bull****. I was proud to see our guys act the right way from start to finish.

Is this enough to make the De Moines Register front page?

Or the Cedar Rapids Gazette

Just finished reading 37 pages on LandThieves, and damn if it wasn't enjoyable.

A little disappointed we didn't have Johnson/Klatt assigned. Gus might've had a stroke.

So big 12 champs then? Going to be tough to beat OU twice.

I'm 60 (I saw the very first game in the Jack in '75). This win might be bigger than the '76 & '77 Nebby game.
