Imagine if the Seahawks made as much of a fuss about loosing as the Sooners are making? As a Sports Illustrated columnist noted, it is not as if Oklahoma had a snow-balls chance of winning the national title, and the loss has not bearing on the Big-12 championship.

It is difficult to watch the Sooners cry so hard!
