Got a house full this weekend, so hoping to catch a bit of the games.

Happy Easter everyone!

Wonder who the Sunday starter will be??? I am gonna go with Overton. I like his upside.

[bcolston15]

Kind of think we're making a mistake not trying to playing two on Saturday.

There's a solid chance of rain Sunday and it's a lot tougher to wait out rain delays on get-a-way day.

[northspeter]

i dont care who starts sunday... i just want us score about 30 runs this weekend... spread out over the 3 games... we do that and we should sweep...

[Lott's Bandana]

I could see them delaying things a bit tonight, with the dryline sitting right over Norman, firing up some bumpers over my backyard. Alas, no rain.

[soonermike53]

T1-Rocha gets three fly ball outs. B1 with the Sooners due up.

My guess is that we win today and Saturday they will start Overton on Sunday and save Shore for for TCU. If we loose tomorrow Shore will start Sunday.

[soonermike53]

Sooners get the win 9-2!! Rocha with the CG.

[Sooner95]

Awesome! Good start to the series!

[soonermike53]

[soonermike53]

Nebraska scores in t6 2-1 OU.

[soonermike53]

T8 2-1 OU. Smith goes out, Overton comes in. 1 out, 1 runner on first for Nebraska.

[soonermike53]

Overton picks a guy off of first, then causes a fly out. OU 2-1 going into b8.

[bufsa]

So Shore pitches tomorrow and Overton comes back against TCU? If Overton doesn't have to go more than two today.

[soonermike53]

Runners on 1st and 3rd for OU, one out in b8.

[soonermike53]

So Shore pitches tomorrow and Overton comes back against TCU? If Overton doesn't have to go more than two today.

I think they only brought Overton in for the 8th. Duke will come in for the ninth,imo.

[soonermike53]

Bushyhead grounds to 1st in a hit and run, Ellis scores. 3-1 OU with a runner on 2nd and 2 outs. Buechele up. Looks like a pitching change for NU.

[soonermike53]

Buechele singles, scoring the runner from 2nd. 4-1 OU!

[soonermike53]

Ogle flys out. 4-1 OU going into 9th. Duke coming in.

[soonermike53]

[soonermike53]

Duke with the SO. Sooners win 4-1!!!!

[Ohiosooner2]

GREAT news!!

Sure hope they can sweep them tomorrow!

[Sooner95]

yay!! Good stuff!

[oulucas]

Went to the game with my two boys today. B. Smith pitched a GREAT game. Can't remember when he got taken out, but to that point he had given up 2 hits and 1 of them I thought should have been categorized an error on Bushyhead. So basically while he was in he gave up one hit, a double that drove in the guy who got on base on the SS error (officially not an error, JMHO).

Saw Sunny being interviewed by about 10 news people with a few video cameras after the game. I go to quite a few games and usually stay late after the game for my boys to get autographs or run the bases and I don't remember there being so much interest in Sunny after the game. Just wondering if they were digging for more dirt on the "situation" talked about the other day.

Bottom line: Nebraska is not good, but the boys are doing a good job of taking care of business and are a win away from taking over 3rd place in conference.

[oulucas]

P.S. If you are a poster here and regularly go to games, I would love to know who you are so I could say "hello" sometime. PM me and let me know where you usually sit. I can't go tomorrow. Wife has this idea I should be at Easter dinner with the family. But I'll be there for the KU and New Mexico series'

[Collier11]

I go to 5-10 a year and follow the rest online

Game 3 has been rained out. It won't be made up, and no replacement is scheduled. We must have run out of local NAIA teams.

[Sooner95]

dammit...this is the 2nd conf game that has been ripped from us that we should be chocking up as a win.

Frak!

[Lott's Bandana]

Frak!

Yep. Misery and Nebbish should have been 2 more conf wins.

[Ardmore_Sooner]

Wonder if this means that whoever was starting today will start Tuesday?

[bufsa]

My guess is that it will be Shore. If he does well you come back with him next Sunday against Texas. If not then you know you have to use Overton and you would have Shore available for relief.

[Sooner95]

This upcoming week of road games is going to tell alot about how good we really are.
