Poll question: Has OU ever been dominated like this in Stoops era?

Have the Bob Stoops-coached Sooners ever been less competitive in a game than they were on Saturday in a 41-13 loss to Texas Tech? That's our poll question, and you can vote by clicking on the link below:

Rarely will you see Stoops' team get dominated like what happened on Saturday. Here's my top five list of games in which OU simply was overwhelmed by an opponent in the Stoops era:

1. Southern Cal 55, OU 19: National title on the line in the Orange Bowl. Two undefeated teams hailed as being among the all-time greats. One of them was.

2. Kansas State 35, OU 7: Undefeated Sooners are a 14-point favorite in the 2003 Big 12 title game but get embarrassed by Bill Snyder's Wildcats. OU is so dominant that season that it still gets an invitation to the BCS title game.

3. Texas 45, OU 12: Horns rough up Rhett Bomar and the struggling 2005 Sooners. Texas rolls to a 24-6 halftime lead and holds OU to 171 total yards in the game.

4. Texas Tech 41, OU 13: Hard to believe but true – OU is a touchdown favorite in the game. The Sooners lead 6-3 before Tech rattles off 31 consecutive points. OU's offense can't move and its vaunted defense gives up more than 500 yards.

5. OSU 38, OU 28: Josh Fields and Rashaun Woods torch the Sooners as OSU builds a 28-6 lead by halftime and is up 35-6 in the third. The final score ends up being a 10-point margin, but OU gives up more than 500 yards and never makes a serious threat to win.
