OU has now scored 50+ points

[stoopified]

128 times in the storied history of Sooner football.For grins I looked up how many times we have scored 50+ points vs. teams currently in the Big 12.


Team (# of times) - High score

oSu (14) -75
KSU (12) - 76
Missou (7) - 77
ISU (7) - 63
KU (6) - 71
CU (5) - 82
UT (5) - 65
aTm (3) - 77
TT (2) - 60
BU (2) - 56
NU (3) - 55

I guess there IS a reason that we are the #1 scoring team in NCAA history.BTW Bennie Owen coached all (8) 100+ point games.

To put this 50= point stat in perspective I looked up the other nine schools among the Top 10 winningest teams in NCAA history to see how many times they had scored 50+ points.

Nebraska -132
Oklahoma -135
Michigan -94
Texas -87
Notre Dame -87
Penn State -79
Alabama - 77
Southern Cal -75
Ohio State -70
Tennessee -66

On a side note while OU has scored 50+ points 135 times they have only allowed 50+ points 7 times.FIVE of those occassions were during the tenure of John Blake.

[soonermix]

are there any handy stats for 40+, 60+ and 70+

just curious

[badger]

We're apparently closing in on 30,000 points overall. We were, like, 230 or so away at the beginning of the season. Think we can hang 200 on Cinci to break it this week? :D

I am surprised that state took more whippins than kstate. I really thought the cats had a greater suckitiude for a longer period of time than the pokes.

Go figger.:pop:

Actually 171.If we average 57 ppg(like we did against UTC) we crack 30,00 in our 4th game.
Soonermix there is no such site I am aware of.On Collegefootballdatawarehouse under misc facts you find a listing for 50+point games.To find 60 or 70 point totals you would have to look up individual teams and check misc facts and count up the 60,70 point games yourself.

I don't know for an absolute fact know that the Huskers are the only team with more 50+ point games than us because I only checked the top 10 all-time winningest teams.I haven't gotten ambitious enough to look up all 119 D-1 teams.

One of those was under Stoops. :(

I said beginning of the season, but yeah.

Go figger.:pop:From an ag standpoint it is sad but true.With 79 wins we have also beaten oSu more than any other foe.,although the Pokes say it is only 78 times(they actually count the 1972 forfeit as a W).

Soory badger,my bad. :)

Widescreen that kind of talk is blasphemous.You are just making stuff up,I have no such memory. :)

[fadada1]

One of those was under Stoops. :(

and exactly what game are you talking about?

[soonerpike697]

Baylor only twice? Little weird...

[stoopified]

Baylor only twice? Little weird...
Well we have only played Baylor 17 times which is a lot less than all the old Big 8 teams and UT.

[sooner59]

and exactly what game are you talking about?

SUC...

USUC 55 OU 19 one of the most forgettable bowl games ever.:mad:

I guess you forgot :DIt ain't true,it's garbage.The last score I remember is OU 7,USC 0.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

When did OU play suc?

The weird thing is, other than those 5 games and TGOWWDNS, the only other team to score 50 on us is ...

Kansas State, I think in 1969. I believe Lynn Dickey was the KSU quarterback.

[stoopified]

I was looking for laughs so I checked the stats for our Neon Orange Bretheren.They have scored 50+ points 41 times,on the flip side they have srrendered 50+ points 32 times.

We showed mercy to the KS Aggies...

No reason to do that with our in-state recruiting *cough cough* rivals....

[stoopified]

Make that 129

[stoopified]

130 and now only 2 behind the Huskers for #1.

Those being the "BOWWDNS".:D

[oumartin]

had we not had to live through the 90's and helping ther huskers get a couple of those 50 plus point outings.

had we not had to live through the 90's and helping ther huskers get a couple of those 50 plus point outings.True dat.Hey brother where you been?I haven't seen you on the board in so long,I thought you was dead.

[stoopified]

I was curious so I brokr down OU's 50 + point games by coach(actually I just did THE KILLER B's-Bennie,Bud,Barry,Bob).

Barry Switzer 157-29-4 190 total games,(30)50 + point games.1 50+ every 6.3 games

Bennie Owen 122-54-16 192 total games,(29) 50+ point games. 1 50+ every 6.6 games.

Bob Stoops 100-22 122 total games,(22) 50 + games. 1 50+ every 5.6 games.

Bud Wilkinson 145-29-6 180 total games,(16) 50+ games.1 50+ every 18.7 games

What got my attention first the high number of 50+ games we had under Owen.Bennie in fact is coach of the top 12 scoring games in OU history(including (8) 100 point games).The second that got my attention was the relatively low number of 50+ games coached by Wilkinson.I think the fact that his players played both ways AND he played his second team as much as his first a great deal of his career may have something to do with that.Bob is rolling up big numbers.

[HuskerPower]

To put this 50= point stat in perspective I looked up the other nine schools among the Top 10 winningest teams in NCAA history to see how many times they had scored 50+ points.

Nebraska -132
Oklahoma -128
Michigan -94
Texas -87
Notre Dame -87
Penn State -79
Alabama - 77
Southern Cal -75
Ohio State -70
Tennessee -66

On a side note while OU has scored 50+ points 128 times they have only allowed 50+ points 7 times.FIVE of those occassions were during the tenure of John Blake.

Wow, very impressive for both teams. Just think how much further ahead we'd both be if not for Blake and Callahan. Looks like OU is going to jump out ahead of Nebraska a few games this year.

[stoopified]

OU now has scored 50+ 131 times and trail the Huskers by 1 50 point game .Bob now has( 23) 50 + point games .The thing that bothers me is we SHOULD have scored 50 vs. TCU and Baylor.Not a big fan of the second half RUN-THE CLOCK-OFFENSE.It could have bit us today.

Ou tied the record with a 62-28 win ironically over NU.

[stoopified]

With the 66-28 blasting of aTm OU is now all alone as they have now scored 50+ points 133 times.Bob has now coached (25) 50+ point games,second only to Switzer's 30 at OU.

[stoopified]

The total is now 134 after the 65-21 pasting of TT,Bob has coached OU to (26) 50+ games in his almost 10 seasons.He trails Barry(16 seasons,(30) 50+ games) by only four games so Bob is on the verge of becoming OU's master of HANGING HALF A HUNDRED on OUr foes.

[stoopified]

Make that 135 50+ point games overall and 27 for Bob.When will he tie Barry at 30?

[stoopified]

The 62-21 beatdown of the Tigers brings the total to (9) for the season and 136 all-time.It also brings Bob to (28) 50+ games.I thought I would update the list for the Top 10 all-time winningest teams and their 50+ point game totals.

Oklahoma-136

Nebraska-133

Michigan-94

Texas-91

Notre Dame-87

Penn State-81

USC-78

Alabama-77

Ohio State-70

Tennessee-66

This season with its (9) 50+ games marks the most 50+ point games in a season in OU history.You add that to the 5 consecutive 60+ point games that we finished the year with(Tied 1919 Tulsa with this streak) and the numbers are mind-boggling.In addition the 702 points in one season is the third most ever in Major college football HISTORY (trailing only 1887 Harvard(765),1904 Minnesota(725).I would like to say we have a shot at the Harvard record BUT must admit it is highly unlikely.

[yermom]

1887 Harvard is going down

[Toronto Sooner]

This is a really special Sooners team. Beyond the immense talent and stats, they have demonstrated incredible heart and willingness to sacrifice everything to enable this team to succeed. Nic Harris is a perfect example. I can't remember his exact quote, but (last week, before the Big 12 Championship game - interview was posted on the Soonersports.com site) he essentially said that he is going to give everything he has to ensure the Sooners win, even if it means being carried off on a stretcher after the game is over. People, we have a real special team here. That is why I am so ticked off by the way that 99.9% of the media is disrepecting our team. It's like non-stop - they just refuse to stop (tv, online, print, you name it). In a way, I suppose that is great for motivational purposes. If I could get so ticked off as a fan, imagine how these extremely talented, and highly driven, Sooners must feel. It's one thing to be ticked off and not have the talent to do anything about it. It's a totally different story when you have the talent to go with that passion. I'm sure Proctor, Lewis, Harris, Beal, Alexander, Grainger, McCoy, Taylor, etc., will be introducing themselves to Tebow. Thanks ESPN!! I wouldn't be entirely surprised if that total becomes 137 on January 8, 2009.

[Toronto Sooner]

Naturally, I meant Carter instead of Proctor, but I'm sure Proctor will have his chance one day also.

[Crucifax Autumn]

The recent stats in this thread make me hope for 64 on Florida, and we'll beat the all-time record without playing high school teams like the guys ahead of us in season scoring have done.

We're already the highest scoring in "modern" football. And seriously? Should Harvard hold any records?

[mfosterftw]

As I have said before...

The "records" for #1 and #2 are dubious at best.

Harvard, 1886: http://www.jhowell.net/cf/scores/Harvard.htm#1886

The Crimson played 14 games, including two against 0-9 Tufts and three against 2-6-1 M.I.T., along with three non-D1 games (including one against Harvard alumni).

Minnesota, 1904: http://www.jhowell.net/cf/scores/Minnesota.htm#1904

The Gophers have a high school and six non-D1 teams on their schedule. It's actually two high schools, as Howell apparently doesn't know that Shattuck is a prep school.

Yeah, these other two records are legit. Let's just call OU's offense the greatest in the modern era and call it a day.

[oumartin]

if we get one more 50 point output this season we will no doubt be seeing a second crystal ball in the switzer center
