While most of the country was undoubtedly celebrating UCF’s victory over Memphis to capture the CUSA East title, Oklahoma State was playing to move one step closer to the school’s first-ever Big 12 championship. Unfortunately, the Cowboys had to get through Oklahoma first and that didn’t work out well in the end. The Sooners won a 47-41 slugfest, as both teams traded late touchdowns for an exciting finish, but the Cowboys’ title hopes are dashed as the Sooners moved to No. 9 in the BCS rankings and will play No. 13 Nebraska for the conference title on Saturday.
OK St. played valiantly, but ultimately a loss is a loss is a loss, so they don’t have much to be happy about, except for what will possibly be remembered as the play of the year in FBS college football this season. With 5:26 left in the second quarter and his Cowboys trailing by 11, Brodrick Brown fooled the cameras when he tipped an overthrown pass by Oklahoma QB Landry Jones into the waiting hands of Shaun Lewis for the interception. Enjoy Brown’s perfect form and execution now before this play is ruined by 30,000 frat boys trying to pull off similar plays in intramural flag football games next year.
After the jump you can relive Brown’s awesome interception, as well as a collection of almost-as-impressive interceptions (feel free to remind me which famous interceptions that I egregiously omitted)…
