Official Holiday Bowl 2008 Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Oregon

[osubroncos86]

This is a bit late, as the game is already into the 2nd quarter, but I wanted to discuss it and try to take my mind off of my "OMG Coach Shanahan is gone" Depression. I'll miss you tremendously, Coach.

Back to the game at hand, though. Pokes already lead it 17-7, but Oregon is currently threatening to cut into that lead. Pokes scored 17 in the first quarter, Ducks scored their 7 in the 1st as well.

Pass *almost* picked off!!!

[osubroncos86]

Masoli goes nowhere!!! Field goal unit coming on for the Ducks.

Field goal is on the way.........BLOCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S BLOCKED!!!!!!!!!!!

That's Perrish Cox, folks. Get to know him!!

OSU is just the same as always. One of the best Offenses in the nation, but their defense always loses them 3 or more games every year. If they can find a defense to go with their awesome offense, I just might start attending some Cowboy games, considering I live just up I - 35 40 miles away.

I like Gundy, he is my favorite College coach after Bo Pellini!

[osubroncos86]

Dez goes down. Uh oh.

EDIT: He's walking off the field with some help. Hope he comes back.

Pokes are going for it on 4th down!!! Gundy either looks brilliant or stupid here!!

And the Ducks get a stop. Crap.

[osubroncos86]

With all the OFFSIDE CALLS!!! Get yer head back into the game!!!!!

[osubroncos86]

2nd down: Pass caught, but dropped for a loss!!

3rd down: Masoli gets the 1st on a scramble. STOP THEM ON 3RD DOWN!!!!

[osubroncos86]

1st down: Pass incomplete

2nd down: Pass incomplete again, good defensive play by the Pokes.

3rd down: Pass complete, but they're stopped short of the first down. Announcers saying they're going for it with clock running.

4th down: Complete, got the 1st. We have to STOP THEM!!!!!!!

[osubroncos86]

1st down: Short pass complete, gain of 1. Timeout Oregon.

[osubroncos86]

2nd down: Pass incomplete.

3rd down: Incomplete, ref says he bobbled it out of bounds. Probably field goal time here.

4th down: Field goal is on the way.....up.....and missed to the right!!!! Score remains 17-7!!!

[osubroncos86]

Cowboys ball, 1st and 10 with 20 seconds before half.

1st down: Pass incomplete to Hubert Anyiem.

Oh wait...they're reviewing it. Might be an interception. I can't tell for sure...

EDIT: After review, they call it an interception. So Oregon has an extra 14 seconds to make something happen. Come on Defense!!!

[osubroncos86]

1st and 10 for Oregon: Hail Mary way overthrown. 9 seconds left.

2nd and 10: Short pass turned into a big play, he runs out of bounds, clock down to 1 second.

Final play of the half: Masoli gets chased out of bounds.

I'll be back shortly. I'll provide a summary of the 2nd half when it starts!!

I apologize for leaving the score off. I'm back now. The score, which has remained the same from the 1st quarter till now:

Cowboys: 17
Ducks: 7


3rd quarter about to get underway.

[osubroncos86]

Cowboys: 17 Ducks: 7

3rd quarter.

Holy. Crap. Walter Thurman nearly takes the 2nd half kickoff to the house!!

Oregon will start, 1st and GOAL from the Cowboys 3.

[osubroncos86]

Oregon ball.

1st and goal: Jeremiah Johnson stopped short of the goal line.

2nd and goal: Masoli plows into the endzone. Touchdown Oregon.

Extra point attempt: Good.

14:15 left in the 3rd quarter, and the Pokes still lead it 17-14. We'll see if the Cowboys can respond to that.
