4:01 pm
to die, right there. >> todd: this is where you want demarco murray to be the guy to secure it for oklahoma. he has had great plays. that was a huge play right there by him. >> brad: yeah, it was. texas still has all of its time-outs. 1:39 remaining in the fourth quarter. we put it that way, instead of saying in the game, because you never know. we have seen enough of this game today with some strange twists to think that it might not be over. high backfield again. this has been good to them today. miller, the lead man, for demarco murray and that will be the case again. murray tripped up, though, and lands at the line of scrimmage. time-out texas. mack brown sprinted over there to get a time-out called. 1:35 remaining. >> todd: take a look at the allstate good hands play.
4:02 pm
it was the touchdown to james hanna. now here he is right here. watch the movement, the shifting and the motion. they start him on the right, then they move him and the other tight end to the left and that creates some confusion. then they bring hanna back in motion. some more confusion. and the result is hanna finds himself all alone in the back of the end zone for the touchdown that made it 21-7 and really oklahoma has not looked back since then. >> brad: now texas can only stop it twice more. you see josh heupel in that offensive hulged. heupel, a quarterback that led oklahoma to that national championship we talked about. second down and ten for the sooners. jones, again, calmly goes up to his offensive line. and somebody went the wrong way.
4:03 pm
jones -- the ball is out! the ball is out! did it get out of bounds, though? murray might have gotten over there or it went out of bounds before anybody had control. boy, you talk about a busted play! that was almost a busted game! >> todd: landry jones had one bad play last week against cincinnati. this would have been his worst play of the season. if it stays inbound. i think jones hit the ball at the very end and knocked it towards out of bounds. he knew he made a mistake. let's see if he doesn't swat it out of bounds. >> brad: he did get a hand on it, i think. back to live action. watch out! demarco murray, he might save the day yet but that last play did save texas a time-out because the ball went out of bounds. now they take one here. >> todd: oh, my goodness. how close was that play? are you kidding me? i mean, think about it.

4:06 pm
>> todd: i mean, can you imagine? as good as landry jones has played all day, if that game ends with a fumble recovery for a touchdown or at least -- wow. unbelievable. oklahoma likes to make it interesting in the fourth quarter, i guess. that is their m.o. this year. >> brad: there is the feeling on the texas side. jubilation on the sooner side. oklahoma wins it. it went right down to the finish. >> todd: 5-0 is 5-0. >> brad: two guys with a lot of respect for one another. they shake hands at midfield. oklahoma, aaron williams is going to feel bad. he played a great game and the secondary was in on a million snaps it seemed like. the one snap he'd like to have back, he'll never get back. let's go down to holly. >> holly: coach stoops, what went through your mind when your quarterback dropped the ball there against the goal line? >> that was my fault.
4:07 pm
we should have called a time-out. mix-up in the play calling and we got lucky. fortunate. >> holly: a crazy fourth quarter. what were you thinking? a lot of ups and downs. >> we had a good defensive stop when we had to have it. and, you know, offensively, it just -- at the end there we just didn't execute as well as we did most of the night. fortunately, we got away with it. >> holly: you about execute in the first half well. what was the key to take over the game in the offense? >> ability to run the football and big factor in the game and took care of the football is the other part. >> holly: thanks, coach. >> brad: nice to see a senior demarco murray to go out with such a bang today as he helps the sooners win it 28-10. that 5-0 feels a lot better than for the sooners than a year ago. final score, 28-20. that's going to do it from the cotton bowl. for todd blackledge and holly rowe and our entire crew, this
