Okay, I'm gonna use this thread for all future questions on the games (channels, stations, time, etc).

I seen the schedule saying the game starts at 7:00pm. I'm online at COX to order PPV of this event and the time of start says 6:00pm. Which is it?

its at 6 pm
I have an extra ticket in Sec. 35 that i'm trying to unload for what I paid, $49.
PM me if you're interested.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

I saw a schedule somewhere that said 7pm. Today, I asked COX why they are showing it at 6pm. I was told.....PREGAME SHOW. I come in at 6:55pm to find the game already in 2nd quarter, 27-0. Now it is halftime, 50-0.

I'll contact COX to seek a half refund.

sheesh rain delayyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Yeah, it totally ruined the event. A lot of people abandoned their loyalty to the team. The Sooners didn't play too well after that. The score of 2 for the other team was embarrassing.

Just got back from the game. It's the first game I've ever left before the final gun in more than 25 years of going to games in NORMAN. I've sat through snow, rain 105 degree stinkfests, 10 degree windchills, and games OU DIDN'T EVEN SHOW UP TO PLAY. See TCU. The lightining was intense, and the game should have either never been played, or at least given a run rule after the first half. OU looked great in the first half, and thats all they needed to do. The second half, which I didn't stick around to see due to the lack of competetivness and bad weather was nothing more than a scrimmage. All in all OU looks impressive....but its hard to say til they play someone who can stay on the field with them. And BTW....for anyone that was at the game. Have you ever seen a storm like that come up so fast..CREEPY

McDonalds, Jani-King, OG&E, The Oklahoman... those are the reasons the game was played until the end.

That storm also ended as abruptly as it began also.

Scoreboard is pretty nice, they need to fix the kinks with the sound though.

I was at the game (last year in the student section!) and it was very obvious people around me were not "in" it. After we score or make a big play, people usually are high-fiving, celebrating, wooping, getting loud, etc. After getting a touchdown only 4 minutes into the first quarter, the excitement quickly drained away. A total mismatch and everyone knew it, which made the game unusually uninteresting. I will save my judgment about the team until we actually play someone although I saw nothing that concerned me.

As for the storm, it was no surprise to me. I left four minutes before halftime when I started seeing lightning strikes to the southwest. I knew it was going to start pouring and I got back to my place just when it really started coming down. I just felt sorry for all those people who got soaked only to go to their cars that had sunk in the mud. Oh well I guess the tow trucks made a lot of money.

I have to ask because I've never seen OU on PPV? For the people who got it what did you think about the quality, how they handled the game delay, etc?

I, too, went to the game. We stayed just long enough to watch the "10 Year Anniversary" of Stoops commemoration during halftime, then booked it on out of there.

We got to our car, which was about 2 blocks west of the stadium, and by the time we got to Flood and Main the waters came a'pourin' down. Took us almost half an hour to get up to Robinson because of the rain. It didn't let up until we got up to about I-44 on the Broadway Extension.

All in all, it was a pretty good game - well, the first half. Obviously, we have some chinks. I felt kind of sorry for the Mocs. I could tell near the end of the first half that the team - and certainly the fans - were getting complacent. Team kept making silly mistakes, and at one point, we ended up sitting through an entire series while OU was on offense - and our section NEVER sits down.

Saturday, September 6th, Cincinnati at Oklahoma, 2:30pm and station channel unknown.

OU is still ranked 4th.

Looks like another easy win for the Sooners.

Actually the PPV was pretty good, they had a pre-game with deano and curtis fitzpatrick, and te game was called by tim brando and spencer tillman they did a fine job.hopefully this is not a trend though I would like to watch them from home for FREE!

This was a PPV game because the big network/cable guns had little to no interest in it. When the conference games come along, ABC and the ESPNs will air several games, especially as the stakes get higher.

the ou/cincinatti game will be on abc.

-M

FSN played a baseball history show (which I need to record sometime) while running a scroll about the weather delay.

This link gives you all of the games scheduled and where they air: Football On TV
As previously stated, it is a regional ABC broadcast.

We didn't get the pre-game here in Austin on Directv. As previously stated, there was no interest in broadcast, every other game should be available OTA or cable/sat and not PPV. The UT- Smellsofbourbon game was PPV as well, I knew a few who bought it here and the Texas Tech game was not not even available on PPV.

They came out uninspired for the second half, which is understandable. They played pretty plain vanilla, when they did try to do something they were successful. Overall a good performance, the second half would have been better if it was a normal halftime break. I know my dad got soaked at the game.

Thanks. I'm still crushed about that score of 2.

Remember, that is all Florida State scored in the Orange Bowl game. It almost looks worse since that was given to them as well.

I didn't watch the game vs Cinittiati <<< can't spell it. lol Had to work 10 hours in Yukon that day. How was the game? Is the Sooners getting better?

they definitely looked better or improved IMO. 2nd quarter the defense was a bit soft but Venables probably had a nice heart to heart with 'em. Came out blazin' in the 2nd half.

It was nice to see Ryan Broyles make some great plays.

That is good.

Here goes... OU at Washington this Saturday at 6:45pm, our time.

OU still stuck at #4 in the BCS standings, but moved up to #3 in the AP and Coaches' Poll standings.

I pray LSU have at least one screw-up game, as they did last year with 2 games going into multiple overtimes.

It is nice to see USC being below OU in the BCS standings, but not nice to see USC #1 in the AP and Coaches' Poll standings.

This could be another year of standings chao for National Championship.

Ou looked much better this week except for the special teams....I cringed every time we kicked-off the ball to cinncy. Which was often. Chris Wilson has some work cut out for him this year.

Sam threw great all day with the exception of two int;s but only one of them was a really bad throw. I was hoping hed hit 400 passing yards. Defense was excellent. Although they need to watch the penalties....the dogpile that led to the UC QB breaking his leg was really rough on the replays. We dont need a Miami type reputation.

Its early but I see USC, Florida, and LSU as our biggest threats for knocking us out of the championship game. Provided we take care of buisness in the regular season. Texas is good, but not great. OSU is always a dangerous roadtrip in late November, and Missouri looks really good again this year.

USC was my favorite team when I lived in Socal, but I really don't want to have to play them in the Orange Bowl again....bad bad memories. My biggest fear is falling just short of the championshp game and having to play ECU in the Fiesta Bowl. YUCK.

We missed the final quarter down here because ABC switched to the Ole Miss-Wake Forest game...I was none too happy about that, I was stuck listening to the final quarter on Sirius. There was a replay of the ABC broadcast late that night on the FSN Ohio channels that I recorded. I still haven't watched the last quarter yet, watched the F1 race yesterday morning before all of the NFL games all day yesterday.

What BCS rankings are you talking about? Those won't be released until October 12th.

Don't worry about LSU...They only bother to go to the Natl Champeenship when it's a home game for 'em

Football Rankings - NCAA.com

That should take you to the Football Rankings page.

If not, then go to NCAA.com - The Official Web Site of the NCAA and navigate to the Football section and click on Rankings.

That is not the official BCS poll. If you click on the "View Complete Poll" link at the bottom, you will notice that that poll has not been updated since February 2008. You can also tell they aren't official because no team has any poll points

The official BCS polls aren't released until mid-season.
