NCAA: Oklahoma must forfeit 2005 season [ESPN].
Herban, is it good to be Chris Rainey? It might suck having to give back that Sears Trophy. It will suck worse is to repay all of the money from the Bowl Game. The Dumb-ass Gators managed to lose money winning the National Championship. Somewhere Barry Switzer is smiling.

OKLAHOMA CITY — The Oklahoma football program must forfeit all wins from the 2005 season and will lose scholarships as a result of players being paid for work they had not performed.
The penalties, announced Wednesday by the NCAA, stem from a case involving two players, including Sooners starting quarterback Rhett Bomar, who were kicked off the team for being paid for work they had not performed at a Norman car dealership.
Oklahoma permanently dismissed Bomar and guard J.D. Quinn point when it was determined they had knowingly and willfully been involved in receiving payment for work not performed. A third member of the team had been previously dismissed by the university for violations of team rules.
