    The Road Warrior Report - Western Carolina Review - September 12, 2021

    IMG_7290.JPG

    NORMAN – Oklahoma was going to destroy Western Carolina. That outcome was a given. The question was how they would go about it after a lackluster second half effort against Tulane that saw the Green Wave come from way down to threaten to win the game at the end. There was no such lack of focus this week, as the Sooners indeed destroyed Western Carolina by the final score of 76-0.

    Spencer Rattler was sharp in one half of play, connecting on 20 of 26...

    NORMAN – In a game that was a slog from beginning to end, the Sooners held their only lead as the clock hit zeroes in the fourth quarter, as Gabe Brkic’s 30-yard field goal on the final play gave Oklahoma a 16-13 Big 12-opening win Saturday night in Norman. The walk-off winner was believed to have been the first final play walk-off field goal in 127 years of Sooner football history.

    NORMAN
    – About the only thing that went wrong on a beautiful fall Saturday in Norman was a Sooner Schooner rollover, as the Sooners rolled West Virginia, 52-14. Fortunately, no persons or ponies were hurt, although the field got rutted up a bit, and the Schooner itself, despite having come apart in the crash, rolled out of the stadium later in one piece. A Schooner accident rate of one every 26 years isn’t bad, I suppose. The last time that happened,...

    The Road Warrior Report - West Virginia Review - November 26, 2017

    NORMAN –In a game that was marked by West Virginia’s perpetual chippiness, the Sooners simply made sure none of it mattered, powering to eight TDs and a field goal on their first nine possessions en route to a 59-31 rout of the Mountaineers that was not nearly as close as the score indicated. Baker Mayfield’s suspension turned out to be, as we expected, for a single series, which ended up being only two plays. The chip on his shoulder was as evident in his last game on Owen Field as it was...

    MORGANTOWN, WV – The Sooners defeated West Virginia 59-56 Friday night in Morgantown, punching their ticket to Arlington for a rematch with Texas and a shot at their unprecedented fourth straight Big 12 title. That much, including the score, really shouldn’t have come as any surprise to anyone. What was a surprise is that the Sooner defense, which was abjectly incompetent most of the night, punctuated that futility with a couple of moments of brilliance that...

    The Road Warrior Report - West Virginia Review - November 20, 2016

    MORGANTOWN, WV – In the biggest game in West Virginia in many years, a game with the locals hyped and sauced to the gills, a game where the home team was fighting perceived disrespect from the CFP committee and fighting for a chance at a conference title, Oklahoma played the role of, well, Oklahoma. The Sooners rolled into a roiling Morgantown Saturday night and rolled over the Mountaineers 56-28, in a strange game that was at once closer than the score indicated, and then again not as...

    MORGANTOWN, WEST VIRGINIA
    – The Sooners’ lost season continued down the tubes this afternoon on a cold and rainy day in West Virginia. Penalties and inconsistent play teamed up to doom the Sooners to a second straight three-point loss, this one by the count of 23-20, as the Mountaineers hit a short field goal on the final play of the game to seal it.

    Dillon Gabriel was 17-28 for 190 yards on a day when it was hard to throw/catch the ball due to the...

    The Road Warrior Report - UTEP Review - September 5, 2022

    IMG_1610.JPG


    NORMAN – The Brent Venables era started off with a bang Saturday in steamy Norman, as the Sooners routed the visiting Miners of UTEP, 45-13 before a sellout crowd of 83,173. The win was the Sooners’ sixth straight season opening win. They are 20-3 in season openers since 2000 and 99-23-6 in season openers all time.

    New Sooner QB Dillon Gabriel was 15-23 for 233 yards and two touchdowns and looked comfortable in command of the offense. Marvin Mims led all...

    The Road Warrior Report - UTEP Review - September 3, 2017

    NORMAN – If you weren’t paying close attention, and nobody told you, there was virtually nothing about the Sooners’ 56-7 thumping of UTEP Saturday afternoon on Owen Field that would have given you the idea that anything had changed. This was an opener that any of Bob Stoops’ teams could have delivered against a lesser opponent. For that matter, it might have been one of Stoops’ better openers, given the Sooners’ historic trend of less-than-impressive Labor Day weekend showings.

    NORMAN – The jury is still out in many ways, but the Sooners’ 49-21 defeat of UCLA on Saturday afternoon on Owen Field demonstrated that OU’s defense may actually be back. The first team defense held the Bruins to seven points before a couple of garbage time touchdowns late in the game, shut them down on the ground, and spent all day in the UCLA backfield. The OU offense, while finding tough going in the ground game, still put up 49 points in a blowout win....
