Joel Klatt recounts Dan Cody warning during 2004 Big 12 championship game

Analyst Joel Klatt recently discussed a pre-game interaction with former Oklahoma defensive end Dan Cody before the 2004 Big 12 championship. Klatt, then the starting quarterback for Colorado, recalled Cody approaching him during the coin toss to offer an ominous warning. The exchange preceded a dominant performance by the No. 2-ranked Sooners, who defeated the Buffaloes 42-3. Klatt finished the contest completing 8-of-26 passes for 52 yards with one interception as the Colorado offense struggled to generate first downs. The Oklahoma defense, led by Cody, held the Buffaloes to just three first downs throughout the game. Klatt noted that Cody reaffirmed his defensive intensity by delivering a significant hit on the first third-down play of the contest.
