I'll never forget how loud it was when we came back from 24-0 to take the lead on Oklahoma in 96 or so..and then the Sooners won it at the gun on a long FG and you could hear a pin drop. Never heard a place go from rocking to silence quite so fast and quite like that. Maybe the Tennessee game...
That was a long drive home.
I was living on South Campus for that game, my roommate and I didn’t say a word after the FG all the way home - and were just stewing on our couches (there was a BS excessive celebration call on the TD which allowed that long field goal try to even happen). Our neighbor came in and said “man, what an exciting game - where are we going out tonight!?”
It’s still mildly amazing my roommate and I aren’t just getting paroled for 2nd degree murder. We showed a level of restraint I didn’t know was in us at that moment.
