I hope it's better than last year's game. After the first half I was thinking, "Stoops just doesn't want to show anything!". Yeah, right. :(

Network to air Red-White game

From staff reports

ESPN (Cox 29) will televise Oklahoma’s Red-White Spring Football Game at 1 p.m., April 8, the school announced Wednesday.
It will mark ESPN’s second visit to the OU spring game. In 2003, ESPN’s spring tour was in Norman when the College GameDay crew of Chris Fowler, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit were on hand.
“We have experienced tremendous national media interest in our football program over the past seven years and it is gratifying for us to see the respect manifest itself in other ways” Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione said in a statement. “We appreciate ESPN’s continued interest in our university and the progress of our student-athletes. Sooner fans everywhere are excited about the upcoming football season and this unique venture helps us provide a bit of a ‘sneak preview’ of the prospects for the 2006 season as well as showcase our entire university to millions of people across the country.”
College GameDay has made three other visits to Norman for football (the 2000 Nebraska game, 2001 North Carolina game, 2003 Oklahoma State game).

Man, we're only gonna run like three different plays on offense and not blitz on defense just so people don't see what we're doing. Screw ESPN.

could be nice to have them here. someone needs to break out a "Corso is a Pen!s" poster......"Herbstreit is a S<rotum"......and "Fowler is a Wanker".....These guys have dogged on OU a little too much in the past, pi$$ on them!
