The 2OT: Red Raiders will need a 2008-level performance to beat Oklahoma
The Thought.
Thursday marked ten years since Michael Crabtree’s famous touchdown to defeat the No. 1 ranked Longhorns in the final seconds of the game. The 2008 season was an exciting one for Red Raiders. The chemistry between Harrell and Crabtree was undeniable. The no. 7 Red Raiders had remained undefeated through the first eight games of the season, but so had the Longhorns. The Longhorns needed this win to for a chance to play in the national championship game. Crabtree’s touchdown brought down those national championship dreams and Even took the Big 12 Championship from their grasp. It was a glorious play that will forever live in the hearts of Red Raiders everywhere.
