Why can't he win the big games? This is a list of the last 5 bowl games they've been in
2003 National Championship: LSU:21 Oklahma:14
2004 National Championship: USC:55 Oklahoma:19
2005 Holiday Bowl: Oklahoma:17 Oregon:14
2006 Fiesta Bowl: Boise State: 43 Oklahoma:42
2007 Fiesta Bowl: West Virginia: 48 Oklahoma:28
So they've lost in every BCS Bowl (05 being the exception game since 03........
They haven't been prepared to play in the BCS Bowl games...... IMO, Stoops just doesn't prepare his players right.
Don't get he wrong he's a great coach but why haven't they won the biggames? Are the players really that nervous? Another possibility is that there are too many players brought in because of theirmeasurables, but they can't convert it into success on the field when facing a well-prepared opponent. To me it's no surprise that the teams that playthe Sooners well are the better coached teams - the other coaching staff realizes that the back seven plays very aggressively and can easily be caught out ofposition, especially the safeties. Part of the blame lies on the Sooners coaching staff, but at some point you also have to blame the players because they arethe ones that have to go out there and get the job done.
Based on whatI've seen they've lacked intensity almost looking robotic on the field at times
