The Sooners rally from behind to win a close one in Dallas, despite OU QB Nate Hybl throwing ducks to the white jerseys all day long. (from Oct. 12, 2002)
I dont mean to be offtopic but does any of you know of a method to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
This was one of my favorite OU/Texas games. It was where we really began to have a dominant run game again. (Part of me does miss the i formation from time to time.) But man, I always forget just how many times Hybl threw to the other team. It was crazy.
Of all the great running backs OU has had over the yrs Quentin Griffin is my favorite without a doubt. One of my all-time favorite players period. He was just a joy to watch. Little dude packed a punch.
@@stevenwillow2525 Yeah, the "what if" game. What if DeMond Parker had decided to stick around in '99? He would have been a beast under Stoops in that Leach offense and his draft stock would have sky rocketed. Most importantly, Q would have redshirted in '99 and would have been there in '03 and there's no doubt in my mind, we beat LSU with Q. Hands down. I was at that '03 OU/LSU game and it's the one loss that really stings. That and the 2017 UGA loss but I wasn't there for that one.
Quinten Griffin was one of the most under rated running backs of all time. It's to bad that the Denver Broncos didn't keep him. He may not be big, but he is tough, elusive, and agile. And in this game, he carried the offense on his shoulders when Hyble couldn't.
He was like Sproles a couple of years early. Or maybe Napoleon Kaufman, if anybody still remembers that name? I don't really care what he did or didn't do in Denver though, he was a terror while at Oklahoma.
Even though my team lost, this was one of the most entertaining games I ever saw. Quentin Griffin was so frustrating to play against I think he had over 200 yards in this game.
Watching Quentin Griffin run all over Texas in this game just makes me think 🤔 how in Quentin Freshman year he was REDSHIRTED but they had to pull him out of REDSHIRT because of all the injuries at Running Back.... What a difference he would have made if he had been around in 2004 Sugar Bowl for the National Championship VS LSU.
No discredit to Hybl here, but the emergence of a strong running game didn't leave him as exposed as he was the previous year, helping take the burden off his shoulders after Jason White was lost for the season. The lack of a running game back in '01, added to the fact that OU was defending champion, put a kind of pressure on him that he was unable to bear.
Eddie Hixson your comment was 8 years ago but I don't care GOTTA LOVE THE 8 YEAR DOMINATION OF THE LONGHORNS. HOOK EM! (don't remember the dates of those eight years)
That was a good game! This is the game I want to see between these two teams not one team just constantly getting the points and the other just giving up.
As talented as Texas was back then, Oklahoma just always worked harder and wanted more (TX fan here). Matter of fact, that's usually how it is 90% of the time.
Uh, OU had its share of "talent" on those rosters as well. Including two Nagurski Award winners, an Outland Trophy winner, two Butkus winners, two Thorpe Award winners, and loads of 1st round NFL talent.
Hyble may have thrown 4 interceptions in this game, but everyone forgets that he was the QB that took the Sooners to a Rose Bowl and WON it! Yea, I know, a lot of that had to do with OU's defense and star players, but give the man some credit, he could throw and probably would have gotten better had he played a few more seasons.
"That trash was undefeated vs texas" One game in which he led the offense to 0 points and went 4-10 passing for 35 yards, and was benched for Jason White after playing barely more than a quarter. One game in which he threw 4 picks and was carried by the defense and running game.
So true, I literally could not agree more (I'm a TX fan too). And where does all of that want and hard work start? The coaching. If Texas and OU are coached up the same and during the game it's 50/50 split, Texas would win most of the time, but Bob Stoops is just that much more prepared than Mack in the beginning of October. If there was any year for Texas to win again, 2013 would be it, but if Bob Stoops comes out on top again (which I think he will), Mack will probably never beat Bob again.
After late first-half score, OU squib kicked and Texas got the ball, up 14-11, at the 50 with 3 seconds left. What do you do? You throw it in the end zone. What did Mack Brown do? Down the ball and go to half.
I love the comment in the description, that OU wins "...despite OU QB Nate Hybl." Hybl looked downright brilliant compared to Chris Simms. Well, okay maybe that's not quite true....but Hybl wasn't the "blue chip" that Simms was supposed to be, and Hybl looked at least AS GOOD as Simms did on this day. And since Texas couldn't respond to Griffin, the game was over long before OU even took the lead.
"and Hybl looked at least AS GOOD as Simms did on this day" Disagree. It's a wash at best - 4 picks vs 3 and all 4 of Hybls were on him (and he should have thrown a 5th but it was so bad that 2 UT defenders knocked the ball away from each other) and 1 of Simms' was a deflected ball that hit the receiver in the hands. The difference in this game was the running game, not the QBs. Stoops figured out that the Texas defense couldn't stop the draw to Quentin Griffin, meanwhile the OU defense shut down both Cedric Benson and Selvin Young. The Oklahoma DL and OL were dominant this game (and OL was an issue for Texas all year - they gave up 8 sacks to North Texas).
@jydaflyest Way to be two years late on my reply. GG is terrible, but everyone here in Austin thought he was going to be phenomenal after that 09 NC game against Alabama. I expect Texas to win tomorrow though.
Nate Hyble didn't suck, he needed more work on reading the defense but he could throw pretty accurate. One thing I noticed watching this video is how uneasy he seems to be in the pocket. I guess he didn't trust his O-line. But however bad people might think Hyble was, Simms was GOD AWFUL!
more national titles, more big 12 titles, more heismans, better qbs, better rbs, better wishbone, better coaches, more thorpe awards, more butkus, outlands, o briens, better defense, superman, etc. etc. etc. theres only 1. THE UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA! TUCK FEXAS!
59-40-5! OU SUCKS! This was good game, but Texas lost a top 5 showdown. 2008 similiar game except this time $5 Texas beat #1 OU. 05-09 4 of 5 FOR TEXAS.
Can't believe how fast the years go by, I remember watching this game like it was yesteday. Thank god for the internet and all the old Sooner footage.

He was really really good in Denver, blew out his knee.
JT. Thatcher and Anthony Perkins....what game changers!

As a Texas fan I still have nightmares about Quintin Griffin
Kevin Miller same but they are scared of Vince young my dude🤘🤘

Man sure do miss having a defense like that .
Quentin Griffin turned on the "BEASTMODE" in this game.
Thanks for showing both teams' highlights. I hate watching a highlight video and all they show are big plays from their favorite team.
I agree, these highlights are the best - plays from both teams, and all in chronological order.
Weather you a texas fan or a sooner fan you have to admit, this game was entertaining.
Gotta love the 5 year domination of 2000-2004. BOOMER SOONER!!
Eddie Hixson your comment was 8 years ago but I don't care GOTTA LOVE THE 8 YEAR DOMINATION OF THE LONGHORNS. HOOK EM! (don't remember the dates of those eight years)
The hype to this game was unbelievable.
That was a good game! This is the game I want to see between these two teams not one team just constantly getting the points and the other just giving up.
Dang. I love OU
Lance Mitchel was a absolute beast! Wish he hadn't gotten hurt probly gone down as the fucking best.
Hybl couldn't read a defense or control a safety with his eyes to save his life. Four *horrible* picks. And we *still* won by double-digits.
As talented as Texas was back then, Oklahoma just always worked harder and wanted more (TX fan here). Matter of fact, that's usually how it is 90% of the time.
Uh, OU had its share of "talent" on those rosters as well. Including two Nagurski Award winners, an Outland Trophy winner, two Butkus winners, two Thorpe Award winners, and loads of 1st round NFL talent.
Yeah they were as talented as anyone in the nation.
How often will OU commit 4 turnovers in a BIG game and still win by a comfortable margin?
Was it only 4 pics? Felt like 10 watching it that day. OU beat Neb. in the mid-80s with 9 turnovers.
hopefully we see these types of rankings again
This video every 30 seconds always stopped and therefore made me wait to watch it.
Hyble may have thrown 4 interceptions in this game, but everyone forgets that he was the QB that took the Sooners to a Rose Bowl and WON it! Yea, I know, a lot of that had to do with OU's defense and star players, but give the man some credit, he could throw and probably would have gotten better had he played a few more seasons.
That trash was undefeated vs texas, whats that say about the horns? Oh, yeah, I know...its 2:47 pm... and texas still sucks lmao
"That trash was undefeated vs texas"
One game in which he led the offense to 0 points and went 4-10 passing for 35 yards, and was benched for Jason White after playing barely more than a quarter. One game in which he threw 4 picks and was carried by the defense and running game.
@Statalyzer agreed Hybl was trash and I'm a Sooner fan
Imagine if those OU teams HAD a QB. Stoops, Griffin, defense- Hybl was a liability.
@joshkhs AMEN...... it really was
That play at 8:05 just sums up how things went for Texas back then.
So true, I literally could not agree more (I'm a TX fan too). And where does all of that want and hard work start? The coaching. If Texas and OU are coached up the same and during the game it's 50/50 split, Texas would win most of the time, but Bob Stoops is just that much more prepared than Mack in the beginning of October. If there was any year for Texas to win again, 2013 would be it, but if Bob Stoops comes out on top again (which I think he will), Mack will probably never beat Bob again.
What a crazy game
How many interceptions were thrown in this game? lol
7. 3 by Simms, 4 by Hybl.
The Horns almost hung half-a-hundred on us today, but our freshman QB making his first start STILL beat 'em! Boomer.
OU-Texas should be played at night starting next year
At the Cotton Bowl???? Nice hood
Is this the same Simms speaking on Jalen hurts
After late first-half score, OU squib kicked and Texas got the ball, up 14-11, at the 50 with 3 seconds left. What do you do? You throw it in the end zone. What did Mack Brown do? Down the ball and go to half.
Damn that sucks I was born that year and after that game I was born about a month later

Ou has won two straight 2010 and 2011!!!
Same can also be said for Hyble
H~
If Chris Simms is your QB you have no luck!
Should of ,could of ,would of.
I went to this game as a kid. Geez I forgot how bad both QBs sucked! Hybl was a liability to OU and Simms was in way over his head.
I agree. I would always cringe when he was signal calling for the Sooners.
@jydaflyest Way to be two years late on my reply. GG is terrible, but everyone here in Austin thought he was going to be phenomenal after that 09 NC game against Alabama. I expect Texas to win tomorrow though.
So many interceptions.

No, he really wasn't, if you look at their entire careers.
Oklahoma won three straight, 2010,2011,&2012 lets hopeithappens this year, BOOMER SOONER
@jimtex10 And they're 4 of 10. Whatever. I'd rather have more NC's and Conference Titles.
more national titles, more big 12 titles, more heismans, better qbs, better rbs, better wishbone, better coaches, more thorpe awards, more butkus, outlands, o briens, better defense, superman, etc. etc. etc. theres only 1. THE UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA! TUCK FEXAS!
And the only good things about OU is there football and softball teams everything else Texas pretty much dominates y'all in so stfu
Oh yeah and about the defense idk about that anymore
Lol still not easy to watch the first half of that game
i was at game ut had it rw was playing great pulled(hamstring) hurt ut ou pulled awy late
loud loud loud experience
gotta love our domination from 05-09...oh wait we are 1-4!!! HAHA and I look for Garrett Gilbert to go 3-0 against OU and I expect him to win 2 NC...
How did that work out?
This didn’t age well....
I don't hate TX, but I don't like them when they play OU!! So, I hope when the play Bama for the National Championship, they WIN!!
Quarterback wise, this game was incredibly sloppy.
What Derek? Your statement doesn't even make sense!!!
Garrett Gilbert??? lmaoooo!!!
texas is tha shit all day all night
Uhhmmm...WHO (OU) won this game? LOL :)
Q!!
@tmlink74 Hybl can beat texass, but chrissy simms couldn't beat OU!
Boomer Sooner!!!
59-40-5! OU SUCKS! This was good game, but Texas lost a top 5 showdown. 2008 similiar game except this time $5 Texas beat #1 OU. 05-09 4 of 5 FOR TEXAS.
Texas!!! Big whoop.. want to fight about it?
If you hate texas add me.
Hybl was awful
