I believe this one was the week before ND ended our streak:

After further review I discovered I have all those magazines EXCEPT the CT in Handcuffs issue which I DO NOT own and will NEVER own.I consider that to be a classless move on the part of SI to chose that as a cover.Where was the Nebraska cover with Phillips or Peter?Where is the ND cover with their dorm rapists?For SI to single out OU like that was an outrage.It has been 20 years and it still pi$$es me off.

If you haven't heard the story, you might be interested to know that Barry Switzer (then an Arkansas Razorback) was reading this issue of Sports Illustrated on the team plane, when the captain announced that OU had just lost at Notre Dame.

They missed this one of Allen Patrick - can be viewed here. (http://www.soonersports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081407aac.html)

You will also see that there was a Josh Heupel cover left off the loop. Thus, please keep this in mind if you're trying to do a cover competition with another program (ie Bammer)

I believe they're counting national covers, not the recent regional ones.
