GAME 15 - #16 OKLAHOMA (13-1) vs #10 TEXAS A&M (12-2) 8pm CST on SEC NETWORK

for about 20 years every conf home game had 10k + ... and ranked OU home games were pretty much always sold out ..

When was that? Attended almost every home game in Blakes years. Average actual butts in seats was not close to 10,000.

A family member attempted to buy season football tickets during the first few years of Krueger and were told by sales person that basketball tickets would need to be purchased to improve their chances of getting better seats. - Based on this I don’t trust sold tickets for basketball games as a attendance stat.
 
Did you expect this team to go undefeated? Some of you give no room for error. I get the past three years, but this is a completely different team for the most part. We weren’t favored at all to win @ bama and I get it, we got blown out, but it can happen in b-ball (look at Tenn). So some of you are basically giving up on this team based off of the result of one game, a home game against a top 10 team who had a dude go off in the 2nd half and hit 6 3’s (he’s a career 26% 3 pt shooter) and several of those were with a hand in his face. I get it, we were up 18 in the 2nd half, but a 18 point lead with 15+ mins to go isn’t at all a done deal. Turnovers killed us amd 4 of those were by a kid who should be a senior in HS. You’re already to give up on that kid for one game? Wow…I simply can’t get there. I hate losing as much as anyone, and we’re all entitled to have an opinion, but you’re not a true Sooner b-ball fan, it’s as simple as that. I haven’t missed a min of a game in 40 years. Last night hurt..it hurt bad. I woke up still thinking about it, but come on! I truly hope our team has more resolve than many of our “fans”.

It’s easy to be a “fan” for a team that always wins.
Yeah.. that's def been the case under the pm years.

basketball seats giving you 1 extra donor point that is it .. same as buying a baseball ticket .. the link between the 2 doesn't exist ..

I can tell you that is not how it was explained to my family member. Maybe sales person thought they could double up, but they were told to get into next level of seats at football games, they would need to purchase basketball tickets.

Funny thing about it. They ended up wait listed for football after not buying basketball.

Someone smarter than me should put up an actual butts in the seats comparison at LNC pre and post okc thunder. I would be very surprised if there wasn’t a significant correlation there.

Also wonder corporate sponsorship and attendance. Like loves had several corporate seats at OU before thunder. Do they still have? We know they are tied into thunder for sure.

Thunder have ruined OU and lil bro hoops
 
Nah the ncaa did
No, would not have been an open seat if thunder weren't playing on Wed at the same time. I have many friends and family who quit caring about Sooner hoops when thunder came here. Way before unlimited transfer and nil bull****
