Into the fourth quarter (at last) August 30, 2008 It’s time to put in the reserves for OU. Now entering the fourth quarter (at 9:51 p.m.) Many fans are soaked and Fox Sports’ Emily Jones is sporting a hair-friendly hat. Chris Brown scored a TD in the third to make it 57-2 (Chattanooga got a safety on a bad OU snap, more on that Sunday on NewsOK.com)... Read More

Bradford looking streaky again August 30, 2008 Last year, Sam Bradford had a string of 21 straight completions and 22 straight.

And the delay goes on … August 30, 2008 Just talked to Jenni Carlson up in the press box. Pretty bad when you can hear the thunder booming through the phone. Still waiting for the game to get restarted. The pay-per-view channel is showing old baseball footage. Read More

Final: 57-2 August 30, 2008 That’s it. It’s a final – 57-2. Less than 70 will keep the Mike Lupicas of the world from getting mad. Read More

Storms delay game August 30, 2008 A thunderstorm is approaching Owen Field. And now we know how a game against a bad opponent can get even worse. Halftime has just been extended 20 minutes to see what happens, and a lighting bolt just knocked out about half of the lights at Owen Field. A check of weather reports on the internet indicate...

Words from the office August 30, 2008 Words from a grumpy copy editor: “This is God’s way of saying that’s enough” Sooners 50, Mocs 0 Game still delayed. Read More

That was fast August 30, 2008 The game’s about eight minutes old and Chris Brown has already scored. “Just like they worked on in practice,” says Merv Johnson. The over under on plays before OU scored was three. It took eight. Good mix and match of carries by Brown and Murray. Bradford 3-for-3 in the first series. Read More

The game is back on August 30, 2008 And the Sooners are playing again. From Newsroom friend Brian Sargent comes this report: Norman received 1.34 inches of rain between 7:40 and 8:40 p.m. Looks like it’s clearing off. But the blowout may not end until late, late, late. Read More

Touchdown Brown again August 30, 2008 In his press conference this week, Stoops said that Chris Brown was one of the most talented player on the team, but wasn’t as flashy as DeMarco Murray. Stoops knows one thing, Brown can score TDs. He had five scores last year, just in games against Missouri. He’s got two against the Mocs. Sooners just... Read More

Three Sooners not suited up… August 30, 2008 Defensive end John Williams, offensive tackle Phil Loadholt and wide receiver Ryan Broyles have not been spotted on the field warming up with the rest of the team. What does this mean? Who knows. But Bob Stoops said earlier in the week that he would be handing out suspensions. On that note, defensive tackle... Read More
