[JLEW1818]

Is Celtic Sooner showing the OU games online this year?

Let me know

[SCSoonerfan]

There have been several games played so far but the REAL SEASON is abOUt to Start.

[MyT Oklahoma]

So far, so good. Keep it up Bob. Keep it up.

[nmsoonergirl]

Don't have cable, can't buy the game online because I live in Oklahoma, and couldn't make it to the game today...guess the Official Game Thread is all I have!

[okiewaker]

Interviewing broyles right now.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Aggies just won 21 to 3.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Try and find the game on the radio. Should be easy if your on Oklahoma.

[Sooner02]

Why's there no audio stream of the game?

[MyT Oklahoma]

Make that in Oklahoma.

[Therealsouthsider]

....geesh, Thulin and Lapham :grumpy:

ss

[En_Fuego]

In excited about Trevor !

[HoustonSooner23]

Two TVs in my living room. $200 per month for cable. One tv is connected to Apple TV and the other my laptop.

[BB37]

Don't have cable, can't buy the game online because I live in Oklahoma, and couldn't make it to the game today...guess the Official Game Thread is all I have!

Radio?

[ourichie]

Right waist gunner checking in

[nmsoonergirl]

Yeah, I've got the radio on. My husband banished the radio and me to the guest room :{

[BB37]

1st and 10 at the 20.

[landrun]

Wish I could see this game! :(
Will it be replayed on soonersports.com?

[BlackwellSooner]

CelticSooner, where are you?

[todd_shelton87]

No luck finding a stream that works. ADHTE and First Row Sports don't work.

[todd_shelton87]

If I lived in a viewing area to purchase or had dish I would hook a brother up.

I have time warner cable so no luck on my end.

[WA. Sooner]

Why is it so hard to find an audio stream?

[nmsoonergirl]

FIRST DOWN!

[landrun]

Trevor to the 50!!! First and ten!

[BB37]

Woah! Haven't seen an OU QB do THAT in a long time!

[bluedogok]

Wish I could see this game! :(
Will it be replayed on soonersports.com?
It will be on FSN-SW late tonight or tomorrow.

[fadada1]

been looking for the audio stream. will keep searching. holler if anyone finds it.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Finally a running quarterback. Sweet.

[nmsoonergirl]

4th and 4....sooners punting

[BlackwellSooner]

Keep the PBP coming...

Meantime, celticsooner, help us out!

[nmsoonergirl]

ULM starting at their own 10

[BoomerSooner, esq.]

I found an audio stream from 104.1 KJLO in Monroe I am guessing. I found it on the college football radio app

[MyT Oklahoma]

Can we learn to tackle please.

[landrun]

ULM got a first. Now it is third and ??

[nmsoonergirl]

dropped pass! ULM will punt.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Nice stop D.

[landrun]

Incomplete... 4 down. Colvin knocked it down.

[nmsoonergirl]

55 yard punt, starting from our 17

[MyT Oklahoma]

Its punting time.

[fadada1]

I found an audio stream from 104.1 KJLO in Monroe I am guessing. I found it on the college football radio app

got it. not great, but it's the game.

[Sooner02]

This is ridiculous...absolutely NO audio streams from ones I reliably use every year.

[Therealsouthsider]

...wonder if they will interrupt Duck Dynasty with a Bob Stoops interview

ss

[nmsoonergirl]

Frick. Punting from our 17 (3 and out, we didn't pick up any yards)
44 yard punt....ULM starting from their 36

[MyT Oklahoma]

So far I am not impressed other than one 30 yard run but the night is still early.

[badger]

Looks like it'll be safe to bathe baby badger soon. Lots of punting so far

[landrun]

I just lost my stream. :(

[ouduckhunter]

I found an audio stream from 104.1 KJLO in Monroe I am guessing. I found it on the college football radio app

Sweet!!! We picked it up on the laptop, and are listening to it here in North Carolina as we watch the ESpin game cast! Thanks for posting!!

[nmsoonergirl]

Landrun, can you buy sirius online access? I think they have a channel that is playing the game.

[fadada1]

from NortherIowaSooner on other thread - THANKS

[rm50]

Defense!!!!

[MyT Oklahoma]

Well all your missing right now is still yet another commercial on the pay-for-view.

[Therealsouthsider]

I just lost my stream. :(

[badger]

Anyone else miss the helmet at midfield?

[LRoss]

[En_Fuego]

Im starting to feel disturbed .... Maybe it's just me

[nmsoonergirl]

Facemask on us....first down for them.

[soonerfan28]

http://firstrowus1.eu/watch/204738/1/watch-louisiana-monroe-vs-16-oklahoma.html

[MyT Oklahoma]

Nice stop D.

[badger]

That flag makes me sad. Would've benn three and out

[BB37]

Well, crud!

[rm50]

Tackled for a loss!!!

Game link

[landrun]

Automatic 1st after we stopped them on 3rd. :(

[todd_shelton87]

ATHDHENET.TV works for the OU game.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Well that was nice.

[BB37]

Offensive PF just wiped out that first down.

[nmsoonergirl]

Offensive pass interference! ball back to our 39...3rd and 18

[soonercastor]

Off PI. Thank you

[nmsoonergirl]

touchback on their punt. We will start at the 20.

[nmsoonergirl]

Loss of 4 on 1st down. I need to refill my wine glass.

[nmsoonergirl]

Another 3 and out. More punting.

[BB37]

Well, our new punter is getting some work...

[lauderdalesooner]

http://firstrowus1.eu/watch/204738/1/watch-louisiana-monroe-vs-16-oklahoma.html

Thank you

[MyT Oklahoma]

Geez this is looking to be a long night. Goo thing I still have half a pizza in the frig.

[JLEW1818]

8-9 wins

[fadada1]

somebody messed up the audio - they're playing back 2012 games.

[SCSoonerfan]

Not impressed with the Offense as of yet.

[Therealsouthsider]

...why don't they conduct freakin' interviews when ULM has the ball...damn you Fox
...not impressed with the play calling so far, hard to tell what OU is trying to establish

ss

[SoonerKnight]

they need to do something this is getting scary. ULM not that good.

[WA. Sooner]

Thank you

Anybody try the hd stream?

[dennis580]

8-9 wins

Only if Bell doesn't get a shot to win the starting QB job back

[rm50]

Offense needs to make some first downs!!!!

[David Earl]

At this point the defense is doing better than I expected. The offense is doing worse than I expected.

[David Earl]

Offense needs to make some first downs!!!!

These young hippie kids get spoiled on first downs. I say we allow our offense to get NO first downs! Let them whipper snappers learn a lesson!

!!

[En_Fuego]

Im getting more disturbed by the moment !

[nmsoonergirl]

We are punting again. from the 28. Fair catch at the 31.

[ObiKaTony]

We have more 3 and outs than we did all last year...

[lauderdalesooner]

Can't miss wide open receivers that far down field.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Well at least we haven't had any blocked punts returned for a TD like an opener a year or two ago. I forget which. LOL

[salth2o]

At this point the defense is doing better than I expected. The offense is doing worse than I expected.

Agreed.

[MyT Oklahoma]

We have more 3 and outs than we did all last year...

Have you forgotton the second half of the Cotton Bowl?

[dennis580]

At some point Bell has got to get a shot

[Therealsouthsider]

...if anyone spots an offensive philosophy let me know

ss

[David Earl]

I'm listening to the radio broadcast so I may not have a great perception... but it sounds like our D-line is playing pretty decent and our O-line is playing pretty poorly.

[nmsoonergirl]

ULM 4th and 3 for ULM...their turn to punt. We get possession at our 21

[MyT Oklahoma]

Way to be D.

[okiewaker]

Not sure how good ULM offense is but if its pretty good, then our D not looking too bad.

[David Earl]

...if anyone spots an offensive philosophy let me know

ss

Merve said they're trying to protect TK too much.

[ObiKaTony]

Have you forgotton the second half of the Cotton Bowl?

It's a figure of speech dude...

[SoonerPride93]

Trevor blows

[nmsoonergirl]

I'm listening to the radio broadcast so I may not have a great perception... but it sounds like our D-line is playing pretty decent and our O-line is playing pretty poorly.

That's the sense I'm getting....Do we have any injuries on the Oline?

[David Earl]

Not sure how good ULM offense is but if its pretty good, then our D not looking too bad.

So far the bright spot.

[Jack T.]

Yup, D is doing okay. . .

But I've seen this "run up the middle for 2 yards on first down, then pass on 2nd/3rd, then punt" routine before.

[olevetonahill]

At some point Bell has got to get a shot

here we go.

[Ruf/Nek7]

If Knight has been more consistent than Bell in the offseason, then I never want to see just how bad bell was. This is nauseating.

[olevetonahill]

Trevor blows

Fire Brent Venibles. Idiot

[Therealsouthsider]

Trevor blows

...bite your tongue! he's so good, he will, he will make you cry!

ss

[ObiKaTony]

Trevor blows

Is trevor looking bad enough for anyone to think bell should start? I haven't seen/heard any read option looks from our offense...

[lauderdalesooner]

O needs a couple 1st downs to try and get TK in a rhythm.

[David Earl]

Bell getting a shot won't make the OL play any better.

[Ruf/Nek7]

The defense has played better than expected. Knight.....has not.

[SCSoonerfan]

Havent seen one remotely good throw from Knight yet. Hope its just first game jitters and all but dang.

[freshchris05]

Maker's Mark?

[olevetonahill]

Im out of here. The idiots have shown up.
The Hide out has a better thread anyway.

[JLEW1818]

Good Knight

[badger]

I just fed and bathed baby badger. Looks like I didn't miss much

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

I'm listening to the radio broadcast so I may not have a great perception... but it sounds like our D-line is playing pretty decent and our O-line is playing pretty poorly.

Tapper is owning the guy he is facing. The others are stalemated.

[Therealsouthsider]

...that's what we need, a little bit of Finch...take the defensive focus off of one guy


ss

[JLMSOONER]

Well, just from the little I've seen streaming, knight isn't afraid to throw into coverage.

[rm50]

WOW! A first down

[chad]

first quarter of the first game of the year. No need to call off the season or give up on Knight just yet. Let em settle down a bit before we all start complaining too much.

[nmsoonergirl]

I just fed and bathed baby badger. Looks like I didn't miss much
You missed some punts.

[okiewaker]

Trevor blows

No,,,he's gonna get us number 8!

[David Earl]

Knight may be jittery, but the bigger part of the problem has been the OL. At least that's what the entire radio crew is saying. They admit Knight is a little off, but say lack of OL is a root issue.

[lauderdalesooner]

Nice effort by D.Williams there.

[ObiKaTony]

Have to remember guys knight is a freshman! Playing on front of 90k hell I can barely chip a golf ball in a scramble on the first hole...

[JLEW1818]

Fire Venables dammit

[David Earl]

Run game picking up... this should help with the passing game.

[freshchris05]

Run the ball, what an idea

[JLEW1818]

I just fed and bathed baby badger. Looks like I didn't miss much

NP at game?

[MyT Oklahoma]

Keep moving the chains.

[rm50]

I think we are finding our running game

[nmsoonergirl]

TOUCHDOWN!

[Therealsouthsider]

...Touchdown Sooners!!!

ss

[BB37]

TOUCHDOWN SOONERS! TK TO SAUNDERS

[JLEW1818]

Is Jimmy Stevens still the kicker?

[salth2o]

O line getting off the ball better and with a purpose now

[MyT Oklahoma]

Touchdown Oklahoma!

[olevetonahill]

Havent seen one remotely good throw from Knight yet. Hope its just first game jitters and all but dang.

How ya like that TD throw?
Yall give the boy a chance hell.

[JLEW1818]

There it is!!!! Hopefully that's all he needed

[SoonerKnight]

Can you Boomer!!!!

[okiewaker]

YULP,,,,the kid had serious velocity on that TD pass. He gone be okay.

[Dixon]

Hopefully that helps settle Knight down. He is understandably jumpy.

[SoonerKnight]

Or maybe SOONER!!!!!!

[JLMSOONER]

Nice pass. Quick release with some heat. I like it!

[JLEW1818]

Knight is not Landry. Different play calls needed.
(Could be better in different ways).

[SoonerKnight]

Nice option run. I like it!! flash back!!

[SCSoonerfan]

How ya like that TD throw?
Yall give the boy a chance hell.

Yep best throw of the Knight so far

[freshchris05]

more maker's mark.

[lauderdalesooner]

Excellent drive, running game got going and seems to have an advantage on the edges. That should open up the passing lanes for TK.

[Jack T.]

*scratches head* Did we manage to find a kicker this year?

[MyT Oklahoma]

Great kickoff.

[BB37]

Wow, an OU KO through the EZ.

[rm50]

OU ran a little faster tempo on that last drive

[Ruf/Nek7]

Much better tempo and the run game..woohoo!

[nmsoonergirl]

False start ULM

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Defense has tightened up outside.. Looking better

[okiewaker]

That RB on ULM named Gyrus?

[BB37]

Anybody notice the ULM players have a map of OK on the backs of their helmets?

[nmsoonergirl]

1st down ULM at the 36

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Tapper is playing great

[nmsoonergirl]

Sounds like a great hit. ULM punts....Saunders catches at the 23

[Therealsouthsider]

...Tap Tap Tapper!

ss

[MyT Oklahoma]

Way to go D. Step up and play some football.

[MichiganSooner]

Defense looks good. Tapper!

[westbrooke]

I can't believe Browning even got that off.

[JLMSOONER]

Tapper looks like a monster in there.

[King Crimson]

d gets a stop. announcer has said "kicked it up" twice

[freshchris05]

That browning kid has a quick release. and thanks to the dline a little be of happy feet.

[Dixon]

Wonder how many more times the analyst will call Knight "Travis"?

[SoonerKnight]

We might just have D this year Boys!!! HAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!!

[BB37]

Defense has been a bright spot so far. Not sure how much of that is the defense and how much is the competition.

[BB37]

First down Finch!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Too many skillet hands

[salth2o]

I hate that dayum swing pass.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Defense has been a bright spot so far. Not sure how much of that is the defense and how much is the competition.

It helps having lb on the field

[David Earl]

Trying not to get overly excited about the defense. It is early... but the guys have played well so far.

[Therealsouthsider]

...way to go TK, he's starting to figure it out

ss

[lauderdalesooner]

nice pass on 3rd and 10 for a 1st

[BB37]

Looks like the pass to Reynolds may have been incomplete.

[Therealsouthsider]

...looked clean to me, don't know why the announcers think that catch looked dicey


ss

[salth2o]

The Fox broadcast is missing several plays because they be spending too murch time on teh replays

[BB37]

Never mind, first down.

[Dixon]

Way too many drops. Knight isn't getting much help out there.

[King Crimson]

david earl....

[MichiganSooner]

Who is the idiot TV announcer. It is Trevor not Travis. And the Head Coach is Bob, not Mike.

[MyT Oklahoma]

Now the crowd is sounding a little excited.

[Therealsouthsider]

...Shephard is gonna be a stud

ss

[lauderdalesooner]

TK is starting to look more comfortable, gaining confidence.

[freshchris05]

Shep is ridiculous. His dad is somewhere smiling.

[Dixon]

Who is the idiot TV announcer. It is Trevor not Travis. And the Head Coach is Bob, not Mike.

Yep. He is awful.

[David Earl]

david earl....

Yes?

[rm50]

OU has found their running game

[salth2o]

****ty camera work Fox.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Announcers are turble

[Therealsouthsider]

...TK needs to employ the pump fake a little bit...three passes batted down is a little excessive

ss

[rm50]

That's three tip passes for Trevor

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

...TK needs to employ the pump fake a little bit...three passes batted down is a little excessive

ss

He's telegraphing his throws really badly. It is like I'm watching a David Ash clone.

[bluedogok]

Ron Thulin and Dave Lapham have done a bunch of OU games over the years. Never understood why Lapham has a color job.

[SoonerKnight]

Throws low needs to throw on the run.

[BB37]

FG Good

[Piware]

It is GOOOOOOOOOD! Field goal Sooners!

[Dixon]

Sweet!!

[BB37]

Two consecutive OU KOs out of the EZ. When's the last time that happened?

[lauderdalesooner]

Need to maintain a 2 score lead at minimum because TK is probably going to make a freshman mistake at some point.

[S.PadreIsl.Sooner]

Nice! Keeps me in the vCash!

[MyT Oklahoma]

Bury those kickoffs.

[okiewaker]

IDK but the D looks like its seriously swarming.

[Piware]

Let's go Sooners. Hope we go up tempo again - seems to rattle their cage.

[King Crimson]

Need to maintain a 2 score lead at minimum because TK is probably going to make a freshman mistake at some point.

something like that.

d gets another stop

[BB37]

WOW!!!! Finch all over the field on that run!

[Therealsouthsider]

...go little Joe 'er Finch!!!


ss

[MyT Oklahoma]

What a run. LOL

[SoonerPride93]

ROY!!!

[King Crimson]

joe washington esque almost

[Therealsouthsider]

...time for play action

ss

[BB37]

joe washington esque almost

Let's take up a collection to buy him some silver shoes.

[David Earl]

I'm a little surprised we've been running the option, especially as much as we have.

What's it been, 3-4 times?

[David Earl]

Let's take up a collection to buy him some silver shoes.

NCAA would give us the death penalty.

[King Crimson]

pretty generous and fast spot for the first there

[Piware]

First down in the red zone!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Swing pass.. It ain't happening

[freshchris05]

I hate the swing pass.

[salth2o]

Let's take up a collection to buy him some silver shoes.

NCAA would give us the death penalty.

Heh!

[David Earl]

I hate the swing pass.

It has its place, but we sometimes overuse it, IMHO.

[BB37]

Hunnicutt is 2 for 2 on FGs

[Therealsouthsider]

...Honeycutt!!!

ss

[jkm, the stolen pifwafwi]

It has its place, but we sometimes overuse it, IMHO.


I don't think it is so much part of the gameplan as a way to get Knight to get some accuracy with easy throws.

[Piware]

Whew! Would have sure liked to have seen 6 but we'll take it. BOOMER SOONER!

[BB37]

Three OU KOs, zero returns.

[freshchris05]

I think it has big play potential for use in play action, but man it rarely delivers anything.

[BB37]

Halftime. OU 13 ULM 0

[David Earl]

I don't think it is so much part of the gameplan as a way to get Knight to get some accuracy with easy throws.

Agreed. They're trying to help him warm up. Merve just seemed to think they were "helping" him too much.

[Therealsouthsider]

...oh my! The announcers are horrible...really? OU 10 to nothing at the half?

ss

[SoonerKnight]

well we can no longer pass but we can run the ball. LOL!!!

[MichiganSooner]

They will return after the commercials for all the halftime festivities. More of the same from these terrible announcers?

[SoonerKnight]

They been drinking.

[okiewaker]

The kid is young and thinking too much,,,running plays machine like. Once he gets comfortable,,,look out!

[S.PadreIsl.Sooner]

D is pitching a shutout! Very nice!
