Bobby Knight responds wrote:OKLAHOMA CITY -- Texas Tech basketball coach Bob Knight, whose Red Raiders lost to Oklahoma on a controversial call three years ago, said he knows how fans feel about wanting a forfeit after OU's loss to Oregon on Saturday.
Knight called for Oklahoma to forfeit its basketball game with Tech on Jan. 20, 2003, when the Sooners won 69-64 in overtime at Norman after two clock controversies in the final seconds of regulation. Video replay later showed the game clock started late after OU in-bounded the ball on the game-tying drive.
"Maybe now those people at Oklahoma understand what I was talking about," Knight told The Oklahoman.
"Had Oklahoma forfeited that game against us like I suggested, they would have gotten far more positive publicity out of that than if they had gone to the Final Four that year. Now I guess the 'duck' is swimming in the other pond."
Oregon scored two touchdowns late to beat Oklahoma 34-33, including the game-winner that came after the Ducks recovered an onside kick. Video replay showed Oregon touched the ball before it went the required 10 yards, but the replay official did not overturn the call.
The replay official, Gordon Riese, who was suspended by the Pac-10 for one game, requested a leave of absence for the remainder of the season, the league announced Wednesday

The bolded part is the big difference there. As I've tried and tried to stress throughout this thread there is a difference between a questionable call later seen to be bad and 3 god-awful calls within seconds of each other all of which were at the time reviewed and despite very obvious proof to the contrary shot down due to convoluted explanations that really few people could even possibly dream up.
As I've said a bazillion times in this thread, I've seen a bazillion bad calls cost teams games, and never has there been one like this and that was this easy to get right at the time.

Look at the ego on you. It takes more than one person to constitute a flame war, but I wouldn't expect that you could understand such a complicated issue.
And I never said all Husker fans are arrogant. Just two of you.

The idiot...I mean official who blew that on-sides kick call will be suspended.....later. There's an official shortage, so it's a suspension to be named later.

As for top back, you say I am ranking Stewart highly because of his #1 ranking (not true) and not because of game experience, and then you throw out Moody (Gable is better) and Chris Wells, who are both true freshmen and have played in 2 and 3 games respectively?
If you had seen Stewart you would know he is the real deal.
Irons you can argue (I am a big fan), and possibly Slaton (although he has to play somebody) but Moody and Wells are not in the same breath as Stewart.
I said long term when I ranked the backs. Sure Stewart is better than those 2 at this point. Like you said they have to prove alot, yes, but on talent alone I gotta give it to them over Stewart even though it is really close.

We'll have to agree to disagree, I could maybe see Wells in Stewart's league, but Moody isn't close.
