Second Quarter
Texas was not able to score on that drive and they punted the ball to Oklahoma, who began their drive on their 32-yard line. It was the first of four consecutive combined punts for the two teams and during this time the clock wound down to 6:54 remaining in the first half. Texas snapped the scoring drought with an eight play, 32-yard drive that culminated in a 38-yard field goal. The Sooners punted on their next possession, giving the ball to UT on their 30-yard line with 0:55 remaining. Vince Young rushed for eleven yards and a first down, but the next play was called back because of a Longhorn penalty. Young then completed a pass to Billy Pitman who ran 64 yards along the left sideline for a touchdown with 0:17 in the half. The extra point made the score OU-6, UT-24 and Oklahoma took a knee to end the half.

Famous quotes containing the word quarter:
“American family life has never been particularly idyllic. In the nineteenth century, nearly a quarter of all children experienced the death of one of their parents.... Not until the sixties did the chief cause of separation of parents shift from death to divorce.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
