ULL was on the road and we were ranked 25
77-0 was Fran's first year, on the road and against #1 OU - terrible loss, team quit
Arky State was Sherman's first year
Year 5 Jimbo, #6 and losing at home is the worst loss in my opinion
Add some context to the OU game. It was 77-0 in the third quarter. They ran the clock the rest of the game, and Stoops had his players try not to score.
All true, but it was also Fran's first year, on the road, against a #1 team that had already taken several conference teams to the woodshed: Texas 65-13, OSU 52-9, ISU 53-7…
Not saying it wasn't horrific, but there were at least some reasonable excuses for it.
2005 Iowa State was a 5-TD ass whipping at Kyle by an absolute garbage team in Fran's third year.
The more I've thought about it, I think yesterday might top even that loss, given that ASU left 17 points on the field.
