Nice, plenty of time to rest up and get ready.

Thanks for the info.

Not looking past SJ's by any means....it's a 50/50 game in my mind. But I can't find the schedule for Sunday's potential game anywhere. Normally, it wouldn't really matter, but remember, it's EASTER this Sunday, which means many of us have unavoidable family plans :)

Our plans wrap up around 2:00 or so....so I am REALLY hoping we get the 2nd slot on Sunday in Birmingham (this would make sense seeing we have the 2nd slot of games on Friday). If we play 2nd on Sunday, the earliest tip-off could possibly be would be around 2:00. If that's the case, then I'm safe. I keep checking CBS, but they don't have ANY times listed yet.

Still no answers for sure, but from what I can gather from the arena website, the games on Sunday start at 1:00, which would put the tip-off of the 2nd game right around 3:30-- which would be perfect. Fingers crossed :)

From what I can gather using this link, it looks like we're heading for a 3:30-4:00 game if we make it to Sunday...

If you couldn't guess, this is a big deal to me.....:)

Anyway, called the OU AD office and they confirmed that tip-off would be around 4:00 if OU is to advance.

Good news for those of us with morning/early afternoon plans on Easter.

this will be the first year since 2004 that i will have been able to watch a full ncaa tournament ou game. though in 2006, i watched ou get beat in the 2nd half from a tv in paris. it was an actual ou watch party and it was beautiful!
