I wonder if it is a misprint and supposed to be aggie lite?

they are a BCS team, it wouldn't a bad scheduling move...
since we are playing UW and i think FSU, those years respectively, it's pretty good

of course the Bearcats aren't listed there... i can't seem to find OU's version of that page

You know, if we play that road game in the Bengals stadium, I don't think that is a bad deal.

In all honesty, THANK GOD...I cant wait to see OUr Sooners in my home town...not to mention, a Victory!!!
BUT...at the same time, why are we scheduling teams this weak? We should be scheduling teams that have built a name for themselves...such as Louisville or, should I mention it, Boise State. If we're picking games up this late, we should AT LEAST
pick up teams that have availabilities...like Hawaii...then, we would have the chance of playing an additional cruddy team in the first game.

they are a bowl team, right? they derailed Rutgers' undefeated dreams last year
playing them at home when we play the Huskies in Norman, and playing there when we play Free Shoes doesn't really seem that bad (most teams don't play two non-conference BCS teams in one year)
i'm sure they are better than North Texas or Utah State
Hawai'i would be a nice road trip though :D
that used to get you another home game as well, not sure if they are still doing that with the permanent 12th game now though

Oh HELL YEAH!!!!
Ever since I moved here I've wondered if OU will ever make it to this region in an away game. It would be great to not have to haul my butt across the country just to see a game once in a while.
Looks like I'll have to wait until 2010 though.

Regardless, a Cincinnati does not deserve a USC, OU, OSU (the Ohio one), Alabama, etc. on its home field. When we go to TU, more Sooners fans are in the stands than Tulsa fans, so that's a good road game.

This articel says the contract is signed, and the game at Cincy will be in the Bengals stadium :cool: I'm there.

Oklahoma will play Cincinnati in football in 2008 and 2010, according to a report in the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The teams have signed a contract.
OU will host the game on Sept. 6, 2008 and play at the Cincinnati Bengals' Paul Brown Stadium on Sept. 25, 2010.
"If we expect Bearcat football to be a national presence and compete in the BCS, we need to play nationally recognized programs,” Cincinnati coach Brian Kelly told the newspaper. "This is an opportunity for UC to play at the highest level and host a BCS program in an NFL venue.”

We kinda recruit outta Ohio.

A road trip might be a little rough to Hawaii. I would try an airplane or boat. YWIA.

We should get 2 home games for 1 away game with a school like this.... Regardless, it's a good move.

Then we should also try to play Cal, rutgers, and perhaps michigan state
nevermind the fact that Stoops grew up ~70 miles from there ;)

Stoops doesn't have a brother on a coaching staff at any of those states. Ohio is a much more talented state than the latter two combined. And you're right, we did schedule UCLA a couple years back.
And New Jersey and Michigan? :rolleyes:
We recruited Nichol because he was the best QB that the coaching staff could get to switch that late in the process. Dejuan Miller already favored us and was easy to get to come down to Norman.

Why? to see the hoochie mama's and the ho's in the stands?

haha jeez people calm down! I didn't say those states because Stoops' brothers were not there, but more so that those states are loaded with talented prospects.
The reason why I say Rutgers is because it's in the state of new jersey, and that state has had a decent history of talent coming out of there. Just sayin

You guys need to understand that Cincy has fielded some pretty good teams over the years. As mentioned, they gave Rutgers their comeuppance and a couple of years ago sacred the bejeebus outta the Puckeyes in Columbus. They are a cut above a UAB and a few cuts above North Texas.

True, but they both pale in comparison to Ohio. There's a reason why Michigan will try and raid Ohio and why Ohio State doesn't venture into Michigan too often.

Hawai'i would be a nice road trip though :D
Going to Hawaii for vacation, not to play football. Teams are thinking about the beach and the bitches. Football would be the furthest thing from the players mind. Also, what would OU gain by playing Hawaii, we don't have any Samoan's (sp check)on our team do we?

What if we get upset on their field? I doubt if we lose; however, why chance playing a third tier team on their marquee game?

good point. This statement might jump the gun but i think we should probably make ohio a pipeline priority(of course not 1st over texass)

Bengals Stadium is one of the best in the country and is smack downtwon.
I lived in Cincy for several years and went to school there- They are a scrappy team and are actually very physical. They have had some good QB's come through there and they did almost upset OSU in the bengals stadium. Really dominated physically and blew the game ---

Plus it would be awesome for me to actually DRIVE to an OU game!:texan: Well, I'd make the wife drive so I could enjoy the "game".
