LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Matt O'Hanlon had three of Nebraska's five interceptions against Landry Jones and the Cornhuskers squeezed enough production out of their struggling offense to upset No. 20 Oklahoma 10-3 on Saturday night.

The Sooners (5-4, 3-2 Big 12) failed to score a touchdown for the first time since a 29-0 loss to Texas A&M in 1998.

The Cornhuskers (6-3, 3-2) won despite getting just seven first downs and 180 total yards. They were able to get a yard when they really needed it, after Prince Amukamara returned an interception to the OU 1 in the second quarter. Zac Lee threw a short pass to Ryan Hill for the only touchdown of the game.

Oklahoma's last two possessions ended on interceptions, including O'Hanlon's third.

O'Hanlon ran back his first interception 30 yards to set up Alex Henery's 28-yard field goal.

Roy Helu Jr. ran for 138 yards on 20 carries for Nebraska.

I'm not a fair weather fan and I realize that the Sooners have been hit by a string of bad luck/injuries that is probably the worst in Sooner history! That being said, we cannot continue to ignore the pathetic showing we've had in recent bowl games, big games and now this, just an ordinary regular season game against a very average (at best)Nebraska team. The coaching that these kids have gotten is atrocious. Kevin Wilson is the worst offensive coordinator in Division 1 football, bar none! No one does less with more talent than Kevin Wilson. Why the hell do you run a no huddle-hurry up offense only to take the play clock inside of 5 seconds ON EVERY SINGLE PLAY! Where is the creativity? We get 3,4 & 5 star recruits and in this offense they look confused, stagnant and uncomfortable. I understand Sam has been out practically all year but this has been going on for years now. KEVIN WILSON HAS TO GO!!!

Why is Kevin Wilson still employed by OU??
Kevin, Dallas - Nov 8, 2009 at 12:23 pm
My bigest concern is the play calling. I understand that Jones had a bad day, but I don't see any adjustments at half time. You have to work with what you have. It is easy to work with a great offensive line, but when you don't have one, you have to be creative. Seems like we need a change!!!

Most of you are a bunch of hypocrite Sooner fans, throwing redshirt freshmen under the bus and calling for the coaches head every time we lose. The fact is Landry Jones is no Sam Bradford. No one else will ever be Sam Bradford, so stop comparing Landry to Sam. The offense is gutted, this is as bad as it can be for Landry. Next year, or linemen and receivers will be more experienced and we will be alot better.

Maybe OU will get the Poulan Weedeater Bowl, or the Taco Bell Nacho Bell Grande Bowl

OU is 14-16 on games outside of Oklahoma since the 19-55 USC loss since Jan 2005

What kind of idiot wears an ou t-shirt to a Texas A&M versus Colorado?

A stupid ou fan.

I know, I know....it's a big club.
Danny, Vail - Nov 8, 2009 at 8:05 am
That was a game ou had no business in losing.

Nebraska is terrible. Even in Lincoln.

But your swooners swooned once again...make that 4 times already with more tough games to come.

Look at the silver lining -- Swooner fans won't embarrass themselves in a big bowl this year.
And Shreveport is an easy drive.

Time for another raise for Stoops, isn't it?!
Danny, Vail - Nov 8, 2009 at 8:01 am
I thought Tenell was out - why is he in the game? His only play is to call for a pass interferrence call. Hello coaching staff????? Jones is forcing the ball and lucky he didn't have 8-9 interceptions - horrible game - do we not have another quarterback to try out? The hail mary pass at the end of the game was pathetic! OU should have punted the ball on first down and waited for their defense to score - the offense was the worst I have ever seen even under Blake. No doubt some credit goes to the Nebraska defense, but OU looked really really bad. Losing a game to Nebraska is not the end of the world but this game was embarrassing! I am not looking forward to next year anymore - we may be in for a drought in the W column..........

was a sight to see ol' landry....trying out for the nebraska quarterback position. oh, and janice, i had to smirk when i read your comment about "how many big 12 championships" statement. it's funny you fall back on that when the national is out of grasp. i'm even surprised you put them both together, as normally, if the national is out, then you folks naturally brag on the big 12. new school record! landry throws for 5 interceptions! wonder if osu has that one yet?

You want to try that again Snakey Lights, Norman!!!

OU may be big for the State of Oklahoma but they pale in comparison to any of the SEC or BIG 10 schools (being originally from Edmond that hard for me to say because its going to cause this board to flame up) but neither of the state schools in Oklahoma are even close. I'd love to know your logic for this. The Sooners just choked and lost to a number #39 ranked Nebraska Cornhusker squad and will probably be lucky if it gets to watch a bowl on TV let alone play in one. Anybody notice a pattern here. Thats what 3-4 years in a row that the Sooners have started high in the polls and collapsed by seasons end.

Now you have the audacity to call yourself an elite program. Its bad enough that the Big XII commissioner is out that pleading for 6-6 teams to go bowls, but the Sooners have made a mockery of the entire BIG XII today

No shit, Barney. Why can't we, as the most prestigious football program in the country, recruit a f'ing kicker????
Snakey Lights, Norman - Nov 8, 2009 at 12:58 am
Kevin Wilson has the play-calling ability of a pair of scissors.

Trent Williams is a disaster. Adron Tennell is worth of Louisiana Tech. And Landry Jones just proved to be the return of Patrick Fletcher. Lastly, our coaching is absolutely horrendous. Just horrendous.
Snakey Lights, Norman - Nov 8, 2009 at 12:56 am
I'm placing an ad in the OU Daily. "Attention all foreign students and Soccer players, free scholarship if you can kick a ball, report to the football office please."
Barney, Mayberry - Nov 8, 2009 at 12:55 am
How much longer are we going to put up with Stoops?
2010 needs to bring a new era in rebuilding the program!
And I'm sorry to say it, but yes, we need to rebuild this program!
OU has given Stoops enough money, and for what?
Bob, please move on! Please go! Just go, and take all of the other joke of a coaching staff with you !!!!!

The perfect weekend is when the OSU Cowboys win, the UO Gooners lose, the Dallas Cowboys win and I get laid. All I need is for the Boys to beat Philly and it will be a perfect weekend.

Can't even score a single TD against Nebraska? Love it! Please bring that same game plan to Bedlam. Poooor Soooonneerrss!

So, tell me......how many "Big-12 and National" football championships do the Tractor Tech Cowboys have in their trophy case?

Since you live in the land of fruits and nuts, I would venture to guess you won't have any trouble getting laid - by anyone of the same sex.
Janice, Oklahoma City - Nov 8, 2009 at 12:28 am
one of theradio commentator on the local radio station, who embarrassmently has made excuses after excuses for this very overrated coaching staff, said that we have been getting beaten by good teams. the same "good teams" that lost two home games to lower quality teams, texas tech and iowa state. if tech can put 50-something points on this so called great defense of nebraska, why can't the sooners score at least 11 points? the local media IN OKC is an embarrassment.
