Re: Oklahoma Softball at Central Florida: Key Series for the Sooners

I would be surprised if Patty had her eye on a specific statistical target, either wins or titles. Having watched most of her public statements and commentary the last several years, I don’t think she’s motivated by such things. At this point in her life, I think she values most the impact she has o...

Re: Sooner Softball scores 9 runs in 1st / 7th to win 10-2 over UCF!

If I did not know the score of the game, and read the majority of posts here, I would have thought the Sooners might have gotten beat by UCF. But they did win the game convincingly and there was almost no doubt they would not win the game after the top of the 1st. C'mon Sooner fans, I ask you to lo...

Transfer rumor

I usually don’t share rumors I see on other boards - one of the best things about this board is the lack of drama for drama’s sake. But… here I am - supposedly this young lady was in Norman for the spring game and loved her visit. Some of the mods (on that board) have weighed in and confirmed enough...

Re: Food for Thought: LOB for the Sooners in 2024

Kudos to 56 for doing the research and demonstrating that, while LOB is certainly Ky an issue, but we score a higher percentage of runners on base than the other elite teams in 2024. I’m reminded of something a former MLB pitcher says on broadcasts for my favorite baseball team (Reds): “The other te...

Re: OU Sooners Host Houston in 3-Game Series @ Love's Field: F, S, S

While far less significant than Jayda not playing, it should be noted that Cyd sanders also did not play. Is it possible that Patty just wanted to grab some extra rest for some of the everyday players? If Tiare or Brito sit today, that might be the play. If not, we’re all left to wonder what really ...

Re: Houston Game 1: Beginning of a Sooner Surge?

I saw something on another board that I am trying to take to heart: OU doesn’t have to beat the ‘23/‘22/‘21 OU teams - they only have to beat the other 2024 softball teams out there. And even then, they don’t have to beat ALL the other ‘24 teams - only the ones that we play. All OU had to do yesterd...

That sure looks like a terrible call. That’s a shame for Stanford.

Re: By the Numbers: OU Women's Gymnastics are Ready for the NCAAs !

What a gut punch. Such an unforgiving sport. Hate to see it. Helps put in perspective the good times.

Big congrats to Audrey and Faith for their individual titles. Impressive for them to find stellar performance in the midst of an off night.

Re: By the Numbers: OU Women's Gymnastics are Ready for the NCAAs !

Competitions today. Both are on espn2 - this broadcast will be the new ESPN format - 2 boxes showing competition and the score bug in the right side - they claim they will show each competitor on each event. This format is not bad, but I find it hard to distinguish the scoring sometimes. On ESPN+ it...

Re: Women's Gymnastics Final Info - April 18-20 - Sooners Ready!

While vault is the Sooners “weakest” event in terms of their own scoring, they are ranked #1 in vault. Their true weakest event, as compared to other teams, is floor - I don’t know their current NQS, but they are not #1 in floor. They are #1 in vault, bars and beam. So if the Sooners are “behind” af...

Re: BYU outplays Sooners in 3 phases and wins 9-4 - OU loses 3 of 5

I understand your post, but how many of those teams also lost two games last weekend? We are Oklahoma and that does mean this is very unusual. Right? I agree it is unusual for oklahoma. But it is also shaping up to be a year of no superteams. While I don’t think any of the top 10 lost 2 games last ...
