All right, Bob Stoops has retired from the University of Oklahoma, so let’s look at the damage he did against Oklahoma State.
Stoops posted a 14-4 Bedlam record, which was good enough for fourth among every Sooner coach. Only Bennie Owen (17-2-2), Bud Wilkinson (17-0) and Barry Switzer (15-1) were better. That’s insane …
Here are Stoops’ five best (and our worst) Bedlam moments over the past 18 seasons. Warning: This might be painful.
5. Debut Done Right
On Nov. 27, 1999, Stoops made his Bedlam debut. OU won 44-7.
With more than 75,000 people in the Norman stands, Cowboy quarterbacks threw three interceptions and allowed 23 fourth-quarter points while scoring none.
