    Head Coach Doug Gottlieb (2-11; 0-3)

    Game 10 - OKC AT PAYCOM #13 OKLAHOMA (9-0) vs. OKLAHOMA STATE (6-2) 7pm CST on ESPNU

    The box score says there were about 10,300 fans inside the 18,000 seat arena. In years gone by, OSU would typically have the headcount advantage in games like this. Question for those that attended the game. Was the attendance in OKC about a 50-50 fan split? Or did one team have a noticeable...

    Remind me: the true story of the "donor program" from 40 years ago

    Remind me: the true story of the "donor program" from 40 years ago

    Yep. Those comments bring back more memories. Over the years OU has made significant efforts, but OU fans have been vaccinated against large scale basketball support. I sometimes drove home depressed by the lack of support. The LNC is a blast when it is full of Sooner fans. I have doubts...

    Remind me: the true story of the "donor program" from 40 years ago

    My experience. I became a season ticket holder for OU basketball in 1978 and continued to be one for about 35 years. I was never a big dollar donor but was always able to afford good seats (First 4 Rows of Section 104). I had three season tickets, as my father went to the games with me, and I...

    Reading a Game Thread reveals a bit about the character and competitive spirit of individual posters. The young men on the team fought to the end it is wonderful to see them rewarded. This has been a fun weekend to be a Sooner fan.
