Welcome to The Replayables, where The I-5 Corridor’s Traffic Report hosts Tyson Alger and Justin Myers revisit one classic game in Oregon history every month.
Well friends, we sure hope you didn’t leave this one early.
Yes, Oklahoma was up 10 points with four minutes to go. Yes, the Sooners had the ball, in the red zone, with quite possibly the best run-out-the-clock running back in college football history — Adrian Peterson — in the backfield.
And yes, the No. 18 Oregon Ducks looked tired, beaten down and all but cooked in a matchup against a No. 15 Oklahoma team that would only lose one more game the rest of the regular season.
And while the Ducks managed to force the Sooners to kick a field goal to go up 13 with 3:16 to play, that was just a consolation prize. Right? Right????
Wrong.
In this episode of The Replayables, Tyson and Justin do a deep dive on what might be the wildest three minutes of football in Oregon history.
Then, we bring on Jason Kersey, formerly of The Oklahoman and The Athletic, to break down just how much this one stung for the fans from Norman.
Thanks for listening, everyone. Let us know in the comments what game we should replay next.
— Tyson Alger, The I-5 Corridor
