OU-Poke game returning to Stilly next season

[badger]

Sorry.

(link fail 1)

This is the end result of the new round-robin schedule we're starting next season. And yes, this is probably making Boonester all giddy that the Pokes will be able to screw OSU fans out of attending this game again unless they pony up for a season ticket.

ok, the article self destructed, apparently :D

maybe the info was wrong?

[Landthief 1972]

and why are we being punished for Nebraska leaving by making us endure 2 years in Rustoleum High School Booger Pickens Stadium, most likely at the cost of a 3-ticket season ticket? I'm sure Holder has a stiffy already just thinking about it.

Meh. No big deal. They had to come here two years in a row in the 80's, and we went to Nebraska two years in a row during the same time frame when they were adjusting the Big 8 schedule. Tech and Iowa State both have to come to Norman next year as well as this year.

[Sooner04]

FOILED by the HMFIC!

Didn't they flop the Big 8 schedule around because teams were griping about having to go to both Lincoln and Norman in the same season?

[badger]

I'm not too terribly concerned... we haven't lost to them home or away in eight years, but they usually play a lot harder against us when they're home.

:P perhaps this will allow them to get their season ticket base up to a respectable number to the point where they'll stop having the most expensive ticket in the country?

[yankee]

well since next year is my senior year, i was actually hoping of GOING to bedlam for the first time....and in Owen Field. damn pokes. i don't wanna go to stoolwater.

Just take an extra year to graduate. Graduating "on time" is overrated.

[Mississippi Sooner]

I know the folks in Lubbock must be thrilled about having to go to Norman two years in a row. :D

Come back as a rich alum. NP and I got tickets waaaay below face for last year's shutout... and we even got to enjoy some of orange's frustration nearby :D

whoooa! cowboys 4ever! :P

Yeah - I'd trade an extra trip to the Stool for missing out on a trip to Lubbock every day. Twice on Sundays.

The difference between us having to play there 2/2 versus when they played us 2/2, is well... Stoolwater. I was hoping we could play head honcho in this new conference and work something like a 4/5 in Norman. :D

i agree. i like to think of it as red-shirting a year. worked for me

[Ardmore_Sooner]

Fun fact, we've lost 2 more times in Norman than in Stoolwater.

[btk108]

I bet the Norman merchants are pizzed!

[goingoneight]

Yeah, but under Stoops... we pwn them in Norman and play down to their level in Stoolwater. What Wilkinson and Switzer did doesn't matter here.

Oh, well... it'll be sweet to pwn them in Boone's Farm 2/2. :D

[XingTheRubicon]

guess who's the only big12 program that does not have to repeat a road game?

take a wild guess

[Ardmore_Sooner]

Texas AND A&M?

[Salt City Sooner]

UT & ISU.

[Phil]

UT & ISU.

ISU repeats at our place. FAIL.

[Soonerus]

I bet the Norman merchants are pizzed!

Why, Norman will still have it's six sellouts a year and frankly I doubt the Aggies spend much in Norman...

[stoopified]

Time to merge these threads

[badger]

Much like OU fans dislike going to Stilly, OSU fans hate coming to Norman... but yeah, a few orange spots will usually show up in our sea of crimson :P

but yeah, they don't spend a ton of money... if the merchants have anything to be upset about, it's the fact that fewer OU fans will show up for Iowa State than Poke State
