For the third year in a row, the Sooners will get to take their frustrations of a high-profile loss out on the Cyclones. Hide the kids and pets.
After Vanderbilt’s first victory since 1988 against Florida (and first since 1945 in Gainesville) on Saturday, ISU-OU moves up a notch in active streaks. The 14-game post-1990 winless streak is now the sixth-most among BCS teams by attempts* and fifth-longest by year among BCS teams who were conference mates before 1990.
For a full recap of this storied-in-all-the-wrong-ways series, I have updated my long piece from last year.
Somehow, next year’s ISU-OU game is the one on a flex schedule where it could be on a Thursday, like this year’s Texas game. That would not end well.
*Counting Alabama’s 1993 forfeit to Vanderbilt and vacated games there and elsewhere as losses.
