DALLAS -- For a moment there late in the fourth quarter Saturday, time seemed to stop as the football lay on the turf at the Cotton Bowl after Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones fumbled it on the run.With the Texas Longhorns trailing by eight points and time running out, the Longhorns wanted somebody -- anybody -- to just fall on the ball as it lay still near the OU six yard line. UT coach Mack Brown, however, had grander thoughts as middle linebacker Jared Norton hovered near the ball just before Jones reached out and, with just enough force, shoved the football out of bounds with a little over a minute to play.
"I actually thought -- I'm not sure whether it was Emmanuel (Acho) or Jared -- I thought we were going to pick it up and run it back in for the touchdown," Brown said. "I was just thinking about the two-point play very honestly. Then it just kind of sat there and sat there and rolled and, like the rest of the day, it rolled out of bounds."
