Stanford Band- Covered in another thread...I had no strong feelings one way or the other...In the pre game, their announced said something something and then the band spelled out TEXAS....the halftime show was supposed to be some kind of duel between OU and Stanford..they formed a tic tac toe formation that Stanford won...they then formed a pong game which Oklahoma won and bowling which Stanford won..really kinda got bored with them...
The Game- I DVRd the game and haven't watched it but the guy next to me had his binoculars on Adrian Taylor when his injury happened..His reaction alone caused me to turn my head until they got him carted....terrible officiating in the game....usually the person throwing the flag was the official furthest from the play...On Madu's big KO return, the flag was thrown from an official at least 35 yards away while one official was about 5 yards away.....same thing happened on a PI call on the stanford D....just a sorry crew....
Stanford's pass defense was one of the worst I've seen this season..probably I would equate their secondary to Tulsa's.....just not a talented group....A lot of the big plays ie Ratteree's big catch was just busted coverage which they did over and over again...awful...They did good against the run, but who hasn't stopped the OU run game....
Stanford's offense was totally fluky....pass plays where he just chunked the ball, but OU secondary guys were nowhere to be found.......
The OU defense did OK but had a hard time getting a good pass rush at the beginning....Also a lot of confusion about what personnel was supposed to be on the field..they had to call a timeout I believe because at one point they had 13 men on the field...just major confusion in the first half with the D guys with their hands in the air looking at the sidelines...It was irritating watching the mess from behind the bench....WHen the stanford O went big, OU was trying to match up with them....Ronnell played a lot in the big D sets....Everytime they came to the sidelines, it seemed Venables was ripping into Reynolds in the 1st half...
Broyles...wow...Miller had some good catches...We've turned into the TT offense except not as good at it....can't run and have to pass 50 times to get 400 yards...cept for a few bad passes, Jones played exceptionally well, especially on 3rd down...
Toby Gerhart- I read the other threads here giving him props, but I wasn't all that impressed with him...a guy getting 130 yards on 32 carries is like a guy shooting 40 times and scoring 40 points....with that many attempts he is gonna get his yards....take away that 26 yard run and he had 31 carries for 106 yards...not impressive...reminds me of a slower brandon jacobs....I m less on his bandwagon now than I was before the game.
The Crowd- Seemed to be about 1/3 Stanford, 1/3 OU, and 1/3 locals...the locals where all the losers wearing the shorthorn stuff....and I will say I've never seen so many people kicked out of the football game by the police...A lot of the locals where cheering for Stanford and mouthing the Sooners...they were selling pints of beer for 8 bucks and many of those fools had so many that after halftime, the fights began....I personally was getting tired of them, and called about 10 of them in front of me idiots for not knowing the rules of football and brought up memories of 77-0 over UTEP and how much they sucked...
Anyway, I personally saw 12 people kicked out in our section and about 8 in the next for fights...bunch of morons..
One guy leaving the stadium had on a OU SUCKS shirt that had F OU on the front...wearing a horns hat...Me and him started mouthing each other for about 10 minutes til my wife pointed out this bitch shaves his legs...Needless to say after about 5 minutes of me making fun of his legs, he shut his mouth....
I also managed to get a ROLL TIDE chant started at the end of the game for the horn fans sitting in front of me..Then stuff about Saban sticking it in uterus and making Pony McCoy cry while he pounds it.....
