Official Game Thread: OU vs Iowa (Insight Bowl - 2011)

[FirstandGoal]

The ball did move a bit weirdly. For a moment I was about to scream at Kenny for just looking at it.

[TheChucker]

Is it me or do we never get any pressure on the punter...I cannot recall the last time we blocked a punt...

[8timechamps]

defense not getting off the field on 3rd down and 3 and outs by the O after a score have been irritating the poop out of me..literally

I just don't think it takes much to literally irritate the poop out of you.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

cheerleaders

[BB37]

Wow, we set an Insight Bowl attendance record - 54K.

[StoopTroup]

Like I said....They might have had some momentum but our Defense isn't giving them anything. Venables is Coaching one of his best games of the year.

[Lott's Bandana]

Tress Way = Sooner

He earned that title with an old-school career.


I'd put Alexander in that category as well.

[AlboSooner]

Blue eyed horse pig

[blacktop]

Kenny must have thought so too. He had best seat in house.

[oumartin]

that was an awesome throw and almost catch my Stills

[instigator]

How the hell does he drop that?

[Okie35]

Stills is so inconsistent.

[BB37]

That was a good throw, Stills just lost it going OOB.

[soonerbub]

Do not agree with throwing Josh let the clock tick tock

[soonercastor]

It was pretty dangerous of him to take it like that.

Yeah but he kinda had to since he wasn't sure whether or not it touched his teammate.

Now that catch, he should have made it.

Not another 3 and out please

[oumartin]

freakin' awesome four yard run by Millard

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

come on... wtf!!!! franks and now it looks like stills is limping

[FirstandGoal]

Serious question. What the hell is going on in Still's head?

[Okie35]

I feel bad for Trey looks like he was crying.

[Flying Scotsman]

Go, Clock, Go! Go, Clock, Go! Go, Clock, Go!

[BB37]

Punt time again.

[StoopTroup]

Stills is limping

[oumartin]

That was a great route and almost catch by Ratteree

[soonercastor]

Trent dropped ball, wouldn't have been enough anyways. Another 3 and out.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

another 3 and out...

[SoonerMagicinGA]

How do we get so many people hurt? I just dont understand it.

[Okie35]

Do not agree with throwing Josh let the clock tick tock

Yea just pound the ball with Millard.

[salth2o]

Stills is limping



ugh

[Sooner5030]

that was a hell of a throw by LJ on the incompletion.

[soonerbub]

OK D carry your ****ing lunch pail right now

[ocsooner]

I'm thinking about putting on a jersy and going out for receiver. everyone else is hurt...

The long snapper is a receiver now??? I think I got a chance.

[FirstandGoal]

that reminds me. I had Billy Sims for lunch today. Was awesome

[Okie35]

How do we get so many people hurt? I just dont understand it.

Bob sold his soul the devil.

Just freak injuries, it sucks.

[Flying Scotsman]

Go, Clock, Go!
Go, Clock, Go!
Go, Clock, Go!

[8timechamps]

How do we get so many people hurt? I just dont understand it.

I can't remember a season with so many injuries.

[Lott's Bandana]

Put one of the kickers in to catch.

Couldn't be any worse.

[Flying Scotsman]

Go, Clock, Go!
Go, Clock, Go!
Go, Clock, Go!

[LVSOONER15]

These injuries are getting out of hand.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

dang...brock lesnar got the **** kicked out of him

[MyT Oklahoma]

A little defense here people.

[oumartin]

that was awesome defense.. only 13 yards on that catch..

[Landthief 1972]

@Sooner_Nation RT @Jake_Trotter: Trey Franks apparently is done for the night with an ankle injury.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

so we're going back to this ****, huh?

[salth2o]

I can't remember a season with so many injuries.

It's like a freaking MASH unit.

[instigator]

I can't remember a season with so many injuries.


2009?!?!?

[8timechamps]

Anyone know the TOP so far? The D has been on the field so much tonight.

[BB37]

And Iowa's at the OU 37.

Check that, the 16 now.

[Boomer.....]

Im not liking the way this game is going.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

no one in middle

[Okie35]

Underneath, underneath, underneath

[oumartin]

beautiful leg tackle by Hurst.. only picked up 20 yards.

[KABOOKIE]

Sooner Magic is becoming Sooner Tragic.

[8timechamps]

2009?!?!?

There was a lot, but I don't think as many as this year.

[ocsooner]

D is gassed.

[Lott's Bandana]

My stomach hurts.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

#5 has to wake up

[oumartin]

awesome defense..
We are kicking their butts.

[soonerbub]

This soft middle bull**** has got to stop
#bringbackmike

[FirstandGoal]

AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaargggggggggggg

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

sure looked like an int to me

[Sooner5030]

not sure what's worse....trying to hold on to a lead....or being so used to losing one I'm not that emotional about it.

this is a positive post by the way

[Okie35]

Ahhh almost Tony

[soonercastor]

ahhh so close to a pick.

[BB37]

Hopefully they'll review that. Close, could go either way.

[picasso]

Right arm was under the ball.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

sure looked like an int to me

nope...just hit the ground a bit...

[StoopTroup]

We won't win this call

[Okie35]

We'll win this game but this is disgusting.

[BoulderSooner79]

Won't count as an INT. Great effort.

[instigator]

There was a lot, but I don't think as many as this year.


It's pretty close. After that year, I didn't think I'd see a year like that for a LONG time. I was VERY wrong.

[Okie35]

I think the team gets bored or something.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

if mike stoops was coaching, jefferson wouldn't have let that ball touch the ground..

[FirstandGoal]

I don't think it gets overturned, but right now we could use the extra time to regroup.

[8timechamps]

rolled out off his right arm. SOOOO CLOSE!

[boomersooner28]

We'll win this game but this is disgusting.

This. I won't sleep because I will be pizzed even with a win. Argh.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

Im not liking the way this game is going.

me either. once again, playing not to lose instead of playing to win.....letting Iowa back in this ****.

need more alcohol.....

[Jdog]

Prevent D = hawkeye come back

[OUNASH]

I can't remember a season with so many injuries.

2009 wasnt much better.

[KABOOKIE]

This team has "it"

[ocsooner]

Unfortunately, we are giving them a chance to come up with a play. On the positive side, our D is getting a rest while they look at it and we look at more commercials. Great teblow

[LibertyValance]

No way a Pac-12 crew reverses this call.

[StoopTroup]

Need an Int!

Good call....we almost got one.

[BB37]

Ruled incomplete, no INT.

[oumartin]

this is an amazing defensive gameplan by Venables.. I've never seen a defense play so lights out.

[wishbonesooner]

Well, they already gave out the Heisman, so we can't make Vandenberg a legend.

[8timechamps]

It's pretty close. After that year, I didn't think I'd see a year like that for a LONG time. I was VERY wrong.

No doubt. These kind of years (like 09) usually don't come along often. For some reason, we got one within 3 years of the other.

[Flying Scotsman]

We're doomed!

[salth2o]

Anyone know the TOP so far? The D has been on the field so much tonight.

Possession Iowa 30:21
OU 20:49

[soonercastor]

They'll turn it over on downs

[BoulderSooner79]

This. I won't sleep because I will be pizzed even with a win. Argh.

I'll sleep just fine with a win - so let's get it.

[Jdog]

Need a turn over

[boomersooner28]

May I reiterate the fact that....IOWA IS TURRIBLE. Geez louise.

[Lott's Bandana]

I think he caught that. But the ground touched the ball so that ends it.

[BB37]

Fleming breaks up the pass on 2nd down.

[OUNASH]

This game reminds me of the 2005 Holiday Bowl.

[oumartin]

Fleming had his nuts in mcnuts face!

[KABOOKIE]

Get ready for the statue of liberty play

[soonercastor]

what a great play by Fleming.

"Fleming has been all over McNutt" lol

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

flemming all over mcnutt

[Okie35]

They've been throwing drags and slants all day because they're open. Our blitzes are predictable.

[BoulderSooner79]

May I reiterate the fact that....IOWA IS TURRIBLE. Geez louise.

and I'm sure you have a point there somewhere.

[FirstandGoal]

Good stop

[MyT Oklahoma]

I think that's been well established and the reasons why are pretty clear but I still think there are a lot of positives to look for in this one. I think Bob thought so too and it's why he came out in his Press Conference about the guys who had basically let down the Team 1/2 way through the Season and why they aren't in an OU Uniform tonight.

Yeah that would be because we're not very good this year. But I'm still watching because I'm a man, I'm over 40. LOL

[8timechamps]

Possession Iowa 30:21
OU 20:49

Wow, doesn't seem like we've had the ball that long.

Thanks!

[soonercastor]

They'll turn it over on downs

I was almost right.

[BB37]

First and goal, and it's now midnight CST.

[instigator]

GD we give up a 4th and long.

[salth2o]

middle, middle, middle...

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

****

[FirstandGoal]

Oh my freaking gawd

[oumartin]

perfect defense on that fourth down!!! We are kickin' them boys

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Ibiloye

[Sooner5030]

proud of OUr D tonight regardless of outcome.

OUr O could've helped a little more though

[AlboSooner]

Iowa is five games from being undefeated. /Stoops

[ocsooner]

At least Stills is still out there.

[toast]

It would be nice if the offense would decide to show up at this point.

[Okie35]

Ben just gave up that block.

[StoopTroup]

1st DOWN!


OUstanding!

[instigator]

Thank you Belldozer.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

nice pickup by bell..I am really impressed on how Clay is looking tonight

[oumartin]

Millard needs more carries!!!

[BB37]

SF crashed on me. Back up now.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

MIllard!! what a run!

[soonercastor]

Ha Millard!

[Okie35]

About time we give Millard the ball.. DAMN

[AlboSooner]

Millard <3

[instigator]

Dang Millard. That is nice!

[Sooner5030]

proud of OUr D tonight regardless of outcome.

OUr O could've helped a little more though

(tried to post this 10 minutes ago before this site took a giant shiate)

[jcvsooner]

lol -- Millard didn't exactly get high on that leap, but he made every inch count. Nice run.

[StoopTroup]

Millard and Clay Show!

[oumartin]

I have no doubt OU is the best team in the country!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

score dammit! put this **** away!

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

McFarland, Fleming, and Jefferson have had a nice game. They just are constantly picking on certain players (Ibiliyoe, Hurst, Lewis (and McGee/Lewis in combo on that screen)).

[Okie35]

Millard needs more carries!!!

For the rest of his OU career. I've been screaming this but not loud enough. None of that play action to him just let him run the damn ball.

[cccasooner2]

SF crashed on me. Back up now.

Me too.

[picasso]

SF crashed on me. Back up now.
No big loss. Slows the dooshes down in this thread.

[Okie35]

McFarland, Fleming, and Jefferson have had a nice game. They just are constantly picking on certain players (Ibiliyoe, Hurst, Lewis (and McGee/Lewis in combo on that screen)).

Forgot RJ he's playing well.

[soonerbub]

Letsssss goooooo pound the rock make em use their timeouts

[oumartin]

watching this game it's obvious that OU only lost games this year do to complete flukes. SEC defense and New England Patriot type offense.

Venables should be the new coach at Penn State.. Dude is amazing

[ocsooner]

No big loss. Slows the dooshes down in this thread.

Hey!!!

[Okie35]

lol -- Millard didn't exactly get high on that leap, but he made every inch count. Nice run.

That's what she... nvm.

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

Forgot RJ he's playing well.

The only DE that I've noticed with consistent push is the guy with too many vowels on the back of his shirt.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

McFarland, Fleming, and Jefferson have had a nice game. They just are constantly picking on certain players (Ibiliyoe, Hurst, Lewis (and McGee/Lewis in combo on that screen)).



Agree 100%....Add in Washington with that...Alexander has had problems with their future NFL left tackle and Washington has done good work against him...I wish Lewis had stayed at home on that TD pass earlier..I was off the board when that happened...

And Clay just looks faster..

[LVSOONER15]

Let's put one in!!!

[blacktop]

I vote Fleming & Way game ball.

[bluedogok]

McFarland, Fleming, and Jefferson have had a nice game. They just are constantly picking on certain players (Ibiliyoe, Hurst, Lewis (and McGee/Lewis in combo on that screen)).
McFarland recognized the screen but his lack of speed kept him from being able to do anything about it.

[FirstandGoal]

Just a score.


Any score


Please

[Lott's Bandana]

Crash was midnite update.

Shouldn't be a game on to interrupt.

[oumartin]

pretty freakin' sweet one yard run by Bell!

[Okie35]

Burn that clock.

[BB37]

Not much for Belldozer that time.

[BoulderSooner79]

playing for the FG from here? don't know about that

[Flying Scotsman]

Go, Clock, Go! Go, Clock, Go! Go, Clock, Go! A score would be nice too!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

2nd and 7 run the belldozer? again, just playing not to lose.....so aggrivating. jam it down their throats!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

come on hunnicutt.......you can do it

[BoulderSooner79]

Big FG here - excellent opportunity for Hunnicutt

[BB37]

Hunnicutt for the FG -- GOOD!

[salth2o]

Really needed that FG.

[ocsooner]

Nice to have a kicker again!!!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

thank you

[FirstandGoal]

Anybody else notice that Hunnicutt is trying to kick a FG against the hawkeyes?

[Okie35]

Good kick. Ball game, hopefully.

[StoopTroup]

Ball Game

[oumartin]

Hunnicutt is the best flippin' kicker in the country baby

[BoulderSooner79]

That was easy! Not as much drama as Steven's would have provided though.

[cccasooner2]

I feel a little better now.

[blacktop]

Thank you.

[picasso]

Thanks to this thread I've added one new goober to my ignore list. Gratzi.

[bluedogok]

Anybody else notice that Hunnicutt is trying to kick a FG against the hawkeyes?
If only his initials were B.J.

[Okie35]

Was that CowboysMRW in the stands admiring a real team from Oklahoma?

[ocsooner]

They seriously just showed an okie state fan at our game? freakin media is in full on 'kick them while they are down' mode.

[BB37]

That was easy! Not as much drama as Steven's would have provided though.

I'll suffer the loss (of drama).

[Lott's Bandana]

May I bid all of you a Happy New Year?

Happy New Year.

Long time till September.

[soon3rfan]

d needs to play tough here

[GreenSooner]

Fugly trophies...but I'll take 'em!

[BB37]

Per Toby on the radio, the sky cam just fell to the ground.

[picasso]

They seriously just showed an okie state fan at our game? freakin media is in full on 'kick them while they are down' mode.
Hey, KOTV 6 in Tulsa has been using the Landry at oSu fumble highlight any time they talk OU football.

[Okie35]

ESPN is so unprofessional.

[blacktop]

Damn glad no one under that!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

wow.. just when i thought this bowl game couldn't be more ghetto..

[oumartin]

you had to know this cameras death would be a fitting end to our season.

[BB37]

Dragging the carcass off the field...

[salth2o]

Sue ESPiN...

[AlboSooner]

Soviet satellites falling off the sky? Lol

[LVSOONER15]

Damn espn camera.

[47Wins]

now a pick 6 and we've covered the spread

[BoulderSooner79]

ESPN is so unprofessional.

Er? because the cables broke?

[Sooner5030]

must...go....with.....FOX/FX/FSN....from now on.

[picasso]

Skylab?

[StoopTroup]

Wow....When the Sky-Cam goes down....you know things have gone real bad this year....

[Breadburner]

Looked like a broke dick....

[ocsooner]

Er? because the cables broke?
Uhhh yea. they were using crappy equipment for the game.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

dear lowered

[Okie35]

Er? because the cables broke?

No because of what they were talking about.

[Sooner5030]

did the iowa coach just blow a bubble....what a fag.

and not the gay kind....b/c nothin is wrong with that

[GreenSooner]

The wire is the best thing on tv!

[StoopTroup]

Wouldn't have happened if a Union Man would have installed it. :D :)

[instigator]

I want to go to bed! FU ESPN!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

any good poops today?

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

someone needs to post a gif of the camera crashing in the thread describing our season..;)

[oumartin]

I'm just glad that camera didnt hit Venables.

[Okie35]

I remember the last time we played in a delayed game. WE'RE DOOMED!!!

[BB37]

Still some wires from the skycam on the field. No play until it's cleaned up.

Time for another Lexus Xmas commercial...

[FirstandGoal]

1. I am first and foremost thankful that nobody got hurt when that thing fell.

2. What a perfect way to end this crapfest of a season

[instigator]

The wire is the best thing on tv!


True Dat!

[Sooner5030]

while I'm tired of the lexi commercials.....the battery commercial was kinda cool...the first 3 times I saw it.

[BoulderSooner79]

We're thin a the sky-cam position and all the backups transferred.

[blacktop]

Fleming must smother McNutt!

[Lott's Bandana]

I wish they'd show the shot from the camera's POV as it crashed.

[soon3rfan]

as bad as the lexas com is i think i am more tired of seeing chickfila the cows have to go not funny anymore

[Okie35]

Yea Iowa has thrown in the towel. What the hell was that run about lol

[StoopTroup]

did the iowa coach just blow a bubble....what a fag.

and not the gay kind....b/c nothin is wrong with that

http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2009/7/30/128934493433069276.jpg

[salth2o]

Wow....When the Sky-Cam goes down....you know things have gone real bad this year....

The only thing that would have been more appropriate would have been it hitting one our pplayers and causing a season ending injury.

[soon3rfan]

lexus

[Landthief 1972]

McNutt should call Bob Loblaw.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

that looked like it hurst

[BoulderSooner79]

Congrats to Fleming - we are going to miss that dude.

[oumartin]

Hurst!!!

reminds me of slingblade.

[BB37]

Short. Ball game.

[Okie35]

Good hit by Hearse lol (get it)


Game over.

[FirstandGoal]

wow

[instigator]

Game over. Thankfully.

[salth2o]

Johnny Ballgame.

[StoopTroup]

Wort just put an end to Vander burgers little run.

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

ballgame. vandenburgh got bent in half

[soon3rfan]

Strange end to a Strange Year!

[BetterSoonerThanLater]

whaaaaa?

[Flying Scotsman]

Go, Clock, Go!

........Ah, victory......oh, well....

[FirstandGoal]

Note to Iowa QB: Its really not a good idea to run full steam into Tom Wort.

[StoopTroup]

BTW....Landy Jones has won every Bowl Game he was starting QB.

[ocsooner]

Mike is coming back. Dude, it's like she has been reading this board!!

[oumartin]

Great news!!!!!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

why did they wait this late in the game to say something with actual meaning?

[blacktop]

There it is by Heather Cox

[picasso]

Wortimered.

[cccasooner2]

[soonerbub]
