#8 Oklahoma at #3 Kansas State - 2000 - Football

[@cedriclovesaaron]

I;ll never forget that season!

[@idriveadodgestratus]

I was there, as a 5th grader (wow). The Texas win was great, but this win was the one where our title hopes became very realistic. And I've never heard a louder stadium than when KSU blocked our punt...

[@theSparkyWatts]

I was 11 :) Best year ever

[@tonyrollman3991]

I was there that day antwon savage play 3rd and 26 was electrifying !!!

[@jakecantrell5542]

as a Oklahoma fan k state is my second favorite team in the big 12 beside Oklahoma good luck k state and boomer sooner

[@cryhwks]

I wish i could get this full season

[@jobu88]

Wow how in the world is this 20 years ago??? What a great season. It's funny to think that of the 4 teams Bob Stoops took to the national title game, I would probably rank the 2003, 2004 and 2008 teams as being better than the 2000 team, but the 2000 team won the title. Oh well who cares. Great memories.

Was very much a Bud Wilkinson/Jim Greshem(sic?) fan. The latter was all-american fullback. I was all-state tailback/lb in '67 and had offers to walk-on to NU, KU and OU. I patterned my running style after Greshem. Cant tell you how much I loved the game. My family is purple and I didnt pursue fb.

[@cdzmo1972]

@gregtangney its important to know when dealing with KSU fans that according to them, football history begins in 1993, was suspended from 2006-2008, then begins again in 2009.

[@poodook]

Hope you’re enjoying your OU football season this year 🤣

[@Acts-ms6vr]

Coach Snyder looks the same in 2017...

[@ruscopcoltrain]

Another stellar argument. You rag on us for sucking in the 90's, which we did, and then brag about beating us. So in your words, the best thing about the OU-K-State series for K-State is that you were able to beat us when we sucked and weren't when we didn't. Yeah, you guys really are awesome. The only reason K-State ever was any good was because OU sucked for a decade, and a lot of Oklahoma players became K-State's best players.

awesome photo

[@calvinmcbride9781]

it was sooner manic that year when they beat these guys I knew they was for real

[@TheDmsooner]

Slimy Barry Switzer??? You are appearently new to cololege football history being a K-state fan. Switzer is one of the pioneers in recruiting of and giving oppurtunities to the african american athlete which I think shows alot of humanity and class during a time where that was not a popular move. He is like a father to many of his players. Some of the things he got in trouble for were buying airline tickets for players who could not afford to go home for holidays.

[@jydaflyest]

your dislike for Obama finds its way to an OU vs K-State thread. This is hilarious!! You should try stand up comedy in your spare time.

[@TheDmsooner]

He also got in trouble for buying clothes for some players that came from poor families so they would not have to wear the same worn out clothes day after day and have coats to stay warm and this was done after these players were already SOONERS. So it wasnt recruiting violations where he was buying players. The man is a humanitarian not a slime. As for heritage in Okie land just look all over college football and the NFL for the last 60 years. Snyder should take lessons from Bud, Barry, and Bob

[@christophercottrell8227]

Josh Norman was such an important piece of that offense. He made so many big plays that season. I’m hoping OU uses Mikey Henderson in a similar way in ‘21. They remind me of each other, and not just the #3. Similar size, both could also play running back, and both are match up nightmares for db’s and lb’s.

[@soonernutty]

@gregtangney You go boy!!! You know there are a lot of OU Hater fans out there.....they are JEALOUS of Oklahoma's success. That's all it is....their teams suck, so why not let out there insecurities and frustrations out on a SUCCESS....SUCH AS OKLAHOMA SOONERS...Voted by ESPN as the MOST Successful and Prestigious College Football program of ALL TIME!!!! Not KST. Not Alabama..Not USC..But Oklahoma!!!

[@ffxiftw1234]

@PVcat1 Kansas state has had 11 all americans. Oklahoma has 52 and counting you should be envious

[@cdzmo1972]

@peepee225 except you followed that loss in the Big 12 title game up with an absolute choke job against Purdue in the Alamo Bowl.

[@PVcat1]

Well then, based on your unbiased recommendation, I nominate Barry for sainthood. Believe it or not, I was an OU fan until Wilkerson hung it up. I regret calling you a "punk" and I apologize. I don't begrudge OU anything and I am not a bit envious. K-State fans are still put out by Stoops antics when he meddled with our coaches during the Big 12 championship week. There was a fight between some of the players and the defectors that wasn't pretty. You saw the results of the game.

[@PlaysWithSqurls]

@SenorDali KC is in missouri

[@ruscopcoltrain]

There are literally 100 teams, including K-State, who wish they had half the success we have. Sure, we've been beaten in some big games lately, but you know who wasn't there? You. Of course I'm embarrassed about Boise and WVU, but ask yourself this: What are you more embarrassed about, the fact that before Snyder came, you were the worst team in college football, or the fact that when he finally leaves for good you'll go back to being the same? There's a reason NO ONE wanted you in realignment.

[@Zach4OU]

Boomer Sooner!!

[@Crankinstien]

Horrible picture. Couldn’t watch it

[@ruscopcoltrain]

@JoeBob246 Hello pot, meet kettle. One game? You're apparently forgetting that OU also beat K-State in the championship the same year. Yeah, you guys got us. Congrats, you're officially 1-7 against Bob Stoops. Which is why you have to bring up OTHER teams' success against us. You have NONE of your own. You have never won ANY BCS game and never sniffed the NC, and you want to say OU sucks because they haven't won MORE? Dude, you need to take your medicine. Reality and you aren't co-habitating.

[@ruscopcoltrain]

@JoeBob246 So your point is that K-State was better than OU. So much better that they couldn't make easy tackles or cover receivers? Great logic. At the end of the game, you look at the scoreboard and that tells the story. Grow up and grow a pair. As far as the coaches, from what I could tell, they ran to OU to get away from slave driver Bill S. All they did was go to a better school with better recruits and more money and win an NC. Why not coach at a school with 100 years tradition, not 10?

[@spud2ooo]

exactly dude ksu fans are like osu fans

[@PVcat1]

@oukurt Why don't you go and hire coaches with an OU history? Let's see two Stoops, Venables and Mangino, all learned from the master, Bill Snyder. The last time OU had class was under Bud Wilkinson. Of course, you are too much of a young punk to remember him. You like slimy Barry Switzer, et al. Yeah, I'm so envious. Lest you forget Lon Kruger and Steve Henson were all-americans at Kansas State. Where is all the great heritage in Okie land?

[@oklahomasoonersfootball]

Shootout

[@ruscopcoltrain]

Does it bother you that OU has sucked for 10 years in its history and K-State has only been good for 10 years in its entire history? It should. And I continue to love how you talk about us pissing away chances. YOU HAD NO CHANCES. Your one shot was in 98 and you lose to Texas A&M! Seriously, you need to sit down because you're way out of your league. OU will win 5 more NCs before K-State wins 1. And I'm done with this. You don't have the game. It's a blowout just like the next time we beat you.
