Oklahoma Sooners Lose Another Tight Game, 10-3

All's not well that doesn't end well. The Oklahoma Sooners, unable to overcome five interceptions thrown by quarterback Landry Jones, three field goal attempts missed by placekicker Tress Way, and bungled timeout management by head coach Bob Stoops, lost to the Nebraska Cornhuskers, 10-3, in another tight game Saturday night. The problem with Oklahoma's games for several years now is that they must be wound up.  In that process, most end in victories, but the tight ones seldom conclude memorably.  Unless bad memories are your thing. "Great is the art of the beginning," wrote Thomas Fuller, "but greater the art of ending." Held without a touchdown for the first time in the Stoops era, Oklahoma still seemed to control the game.  The No. 20 Sooners outgained the Cornhuskers, 325-180, secured 23 first downs to Nebraska's seven, and ran 87 offensive plays to Nebraska's 57.  But in the only statistic that finally matters, Oklahoma fell short.   The three points was the fewest in Stoops' realm. ...
