As OU gets ready to face Oregon in the Alamo Bowl, we look back at the last time these teams played.

15 years ago, the Sooners were an onside kick recovery away from clinching a win in Eugene, but the officials awarded Oregon the football, even though the ducks never recovered the kick.

Oregon appeared to touch the ball before it went 10 yards, but replay didn't see it that way. OU's Allen Patrick even came out of the pile with the ball.

On Monday, Bob Stoops reflected on the whole situation.
