Just think if we would have picked off just one pass in first half and not dug ourselves such a deep hole or not had so many penalties. The game and every game has been there for the taking.

Never fault them going for 2, just like Neb back when. Besides don't want to potentially rely on kicker in OT.
I like the going for two call since I don’t think we could have stopped them in overtime.
Hell of an effort, a 21 point comeback on the road in that environment. 3 losses by 4 points hurts like a MF’er. Love this team and all of those guys, so close. Loyal forever true.
Going for two was the wrong call.
Iowa State held Oklahoma to seven points in the second half. Trust the defense in overtime.

I'll take this nutcup type loss. I love watching a team that never quits. They screwed themselves with a lot of mistakes, but they never quit.

I like the call by Campbell. Don't want to give jalen hurts an opportunity to win the game.
Still should have played for OT. Our momentum of Offense would have worked better with a larger field with a time out to work with.
Also, let’s kick Texas’ ass next week!!
Just huge missed opportunity, really no excuse to punt 5 times in this game, normally this would be a close miss, but Iowa state should have won this game.
Ou defense was pathetic and really can’t stop anything and instead we duck around for a half and bake mistake after mistake.
This looks like a “valiant effort” but Iowa state should have won this .

This is going to be 2005 all over again. A LOT of could've, should've and would've's. This team is so close to being a very good team. They are a good football team that just needs to do a few more things better and they will be there. It just hurts we can never seem to get over the hump.
Penalty is a penalty, regardless of when it occurs. The officials are pussies who don’t have the guts to do the right thing.
Can somebody ban this ******* idiot? Seriously, what does it take?
Yah. Would have thought the TEs would have been the primary targets. OU wasn't going to get called for a PI in that situation. The big physical guys may have been able to absorb it and still get the catch. The pass was perfect, it's just hard to catch the ball when the defender is draped all over you.
I can't believe some of you wanted to go to OT with our FG kicking issues.
I didn’t trust our kicker to make the PAT to tie it. I sure as hell wouldn’t trust our kicker to make a field goal in overtime.
I guess this is better than getting blown out.
I can’t believe we almost won going for 2.
Amazing.

Hindsight is always 20/20. On the road, one play to beat a Top 10 team... You get it and it’s over.
but we had the momentum, tons of players on OU’s defense hurt and tired, stadium pretty much had more Cyclone than Sooner fans at that point, Overtime might have been the better option.
