what are the smptoms to a bad O2 sensor

I got a 2001 EX coupe, 5 speed with 90000 miles
Anyways....i think I got a bad oxygen sensor..
The check engine light came up. I checked the engine and the engine is there =)
I got bad fuel milage...down about 25%
When I shift I hear this rattle coming from the engine like the car is going to die out and stall.
The exhaust fumes stinks like its full of gas.

What do you guys think?
O2 sensor?
